"I hope no more than one or two, but I suspect there are far more," Mael says, stretching a little. "Shall we push on?"

"Even if there are more than two we don't have to plunder the whole labyrinth in one day. Let's keep sailing until till we have to roost." Niyol replied in an easy manner glad that Alex was alright even after being separated from the group. Keeping his sword drawn Niyol motioned for everyone to move together, now paranoid with the trap doorways.

With that the group stepped into the center area. The entry way seemed to be sealed, Preventing them from exiting and returning back. while the last hallway to the north remain sealed as well. Meaning that the group was left to figure out what exactly to do.

"Hmm curious. Not sure what the labyrinth wants us to do. Hmmm." Niyol comment aloud as he look around the center hall for anythign they may have miss at first glance.

"We could try the various crystals we picked up from all over."

Mael proceeded to do as Ovelia suggested and tried various combinations of the crystals and gems the group had found.

Trying the first group set of gems on the crystals, the Gems in the room lit up, then shut off. The doors on the sides and the front entrance opening. Each time the opened and closed, another group of the gourd like pokemon showed up, and were swiftly defeated. Until they tried all of the combinations to the crystals.
As they defeated the last group of gourd like pokemon. A familiar face rode into the room on a Ponyta.
It was Johnathan, "Hey people, I'm Johnathan from the order of the blurriest messenger, here to issue a return order."

"Hello Jonathan," Mael said, a little surprised. He'd not been expecting anyone to interrupt them in the dungeon. It had started to feel like their own private training area. Then Mael realized what the man said, and he grew concerned. "A return order? We'll comply of course, but did something happen?"

Without a second of hesitation Johnathan said, "Yes, something happened."
As he sat there looking gallant ontop of his summoned construct, he didn't even seem like he was going to elaborate slightly.

Mael resists the urge to facepalm. Of course something happened, man, I want to know what, he thought, but didn't say, because that would be rude. I'll just have to be a little direct. "Let's get moving everyone," he told the group. He then turned to face Jonathan again, "So what happened? Unless this is something we should hear from our guild leader himself?" I can accept waiting to hear the news I suppose, but only if it's actually something that Sans needs to tell us.

Niyol look at the newcomer with a critical eye, appreciating the gallant pose that any knight would hope to achieve. To bad the knight seemed a little slow on the up keep for all his speed. With a nod, Niyol sheath his sword and daggers and bowed for Oveila and Alex to walk ahead of him toward the dungeon exit before following after them. Already Niyol was worried about the situation back at the pot but he kept his worries to himself and allow Mael to take the lead in interrogating the messenger.

With a scratch of his head Johnathan explained, "uhh... so It's this kinda thing where.... well... I guess it's hard to explain, the general gist is that Ovelia, Mael, and Niyol have been challenged to Honor combat. Apparently the guy who tried to beat up which ever one of you is Alex and lost insulted the honor of the order of the rainbow dragon. So the order sent over a squad for a fight, they want one against the group that they met back on the first mission. Alex already fought him, and won. Thane fought one of their members, Granite I think her name was, and lost. Now there's three more people, and they want to fight you guys.

As they fought and cleared the sprouts, Ovelia was starting to get annoyed at each failed attempt. What were they supposed to do? However, after the final battle and the sound of a mount, Ovelia groaned and turned around. That certainly sounded bigger than the plants they had fought. When she saw just who it was however, her face flushed. Crap! No, no I've been fighting a bunch I'm sweaty and my hair is a mess! She panicked as she quickly sheathed her blades and tried to push her hair back and look less tossed around from her fast combat style.
She quickly looked down at her armor, hoping it wasn't covered in plant guts and wiped away any quickly while trying to look as subtle about it as possible...which wasn't very subtle. Mael questioned the man before she could speak, which was probably for the best since it meant he would be focused on Mael and thus she had the time to straighten said hair and armor. When she finished, she couldn't help but notice Jonathan seemed to be looking gallant and charming. Uhhh crap, what did they say while I wasn't listening?! Ovelia thought flustered as she realized she had missed part of the conversation in her flustered reactions. Something happened and guild master? Why is Niyol bowing and waiting...uhhh ok, I guess we have to leave? She thought as she took a step forward toward the exit hoping that she hadn't misread that message. Well, worst case she could sell it as moving to speak to Jonathan! Totally covered!
Finally, she caught Jonathan's explanation. An honor duel against the Rainbow Dragon? This soon after the last few days and especially after this dungeon? She wasn't looking forward to it, but it wasn't like she could turn it down. "Hey Jonathan!" She said with a smile and a wave. "The duel is today?" She asked.

Johnathan shook his head smiling at Ovelia, as he started leading the way out, "Nope, it's tommorow first thing in the morning. You're to come back here afterwards."
Johnathan continued his way forward, "Honor combat though so quickly once you started. what happened?"
Alex spoke up first, "Byrom's a jerk."

"Well...it's not the first honor combat some of us have had." Ovelia comments before looking up at Jonathan. She wanted to find an excuse to ride with him without looking wimpy or lazy. Especially with Niyol nearby. "I don't think I've ever ridden a construct before. What's it like? Doesn't burn you?"

With a shake of his head Johnathan said, "The flames only burn those who I don't allow to ride her."
"to those people it's just warm." He said.

"So... our training is being interrupted because the Rainbow Dragon guys are sore losers?" Mael shakes his head with a sigh. "Inter-Order politics are such a waste of time, but let's get this over with," he says. "Thank you for your explanation, Jonathan. Sorry for needling you," he adds.
Seeing as how Ovelia is busy talking to Jonathan, Mael shrugs. "Might be a good idea to talk while we walk."

"A duel... And Sans order us to return?" Niyol comment to Mael, doing his best to keep from groaning about having to take on another duel. Niyol frowns the more he thinks about the last duel he had before quickly clearing the image away a rue smile.
"Well they certainly can't be as skilled as, our Oveila. Sir Jonathan, if you ever end up challenged to a duel by Oveila, run and never look back. Haha, she's was a real shocker. I couldn't think straight for the rest of the day." 'In more ways than one.' Niyol laugh good naturally.
"Once we get back to the pot maybe we can think up of a strategy for the duel. What do you say Mael?"

Johnathan nodded, "I would bet, Ovelia was always a good fighter back when we were practicing."
"Though that's all I was told, when we get back you can get the details from Sans on it." Johnathan said.

At Niyols compliment, Ovelia resisted the urge to roll her eyes, especially at the shocker remark. At least it was bragging around Jonathan, even if it was by Niyol of all people. When Jonathan agreed and mentioned the past, however, Ovelia lightly blushed. "You give me too much credit! You weren't bad yourself and I only got where I was because of all our practice and time together!" She insisted.
