|Simple Mischief for the Anxious Minds|
The idea of having a gateway linking the real world and the otherworld was fascinating, if a little curious. In whose interest exactly was it to have such a thing laying around? The caretakers wouldn’t want any soul to spill from the “recycling bin”, only hellbound folks would benefit from this. Perhaps it was the doing of a mortal wishing to reconnect with a lost one? Ah! Whatever the case, in this condition, that thing was no good. Perhaps a little tinkering would do the trick?
Vale had not come by himself on this day. Sporting his iconic explorator outfit complete with a safari hat and very small beige shorts,he was accompanied by two guides who knew the way to the strange contraption. It had been quite the way to get there, but even for him the physical activity was certainly beneficial.
“Do any of you happen to know how this machine works?” The shinjin asked. After a negative response, he smirked.
“Well, with your help, I might try and attempt something. If it works, the payout will be huge. Are you guys in?”
Sensing the promise of riches, both accepted at once. As the Shinjin approached, he placed a hand on their shoulders and within the next second, both men fell to the ground, their soul exiting their body from their mouth agape.
“Good, then let’s proceed.”
Fueling both souls with his magic, he sent them towards the furnace. His thinking was rather simple. Using the magic charged souls as a form of energy, perhaps he could activate the furnace and open the gateway. If it showed signs of working, then he could try and manipulate the energy in any way he wanted to get the desired results.
Around the Mount Five Elements, the air thickened with dark and powerful magic. Surely, the most magically-attuned minds would find themselves attracted by it. Vale had to work quickly and if need be, flee the scene only to start again later.
