Voldo heard Lucius step beside him. "Then where is Pyrrha? She is alive? Maybe Tira is still with her."
"Pyrrha was taken to Venice. I left her in the care of a wind priestess named Talim."
Venice? Voldo knew that area, as he did the rest of Italy, like the back of his hand. This should be easy. He now had Pyrrha's location pinpointed - but where was Tira?!
"Furthermore, there was no one by the name of Tira traveling with us. Search the castle if that is your wish... but do not overstay your welcome."
Voldo then heard his footsteps grow quieter as he left the room. He turned on his heel and lowered his weapons, hissing in annoyance, when he heard another voice speak.
"Greetings, my name is Siegfried Schtauffen, I come in peace..."
Voldo strode towards the man, keeping a firm grip on his katars. In his experience, whenever somebody had that to him, it had usually meant the opposite. However, another ally would be useful, so he did not take to frightening Siegfried, however amusing it may have been for him to do so.

Suddenly, a man apperead out of the shadows. As he came closer, Cassandra suddenly recognize the man. He was the Crystalline Knight who was the former wielder of Soul Calibur.
"Greetings, my name is Siegfried Schtauffen, I come in peace..." said the knight.
"I believe we've met before at Eurydice Shrine at Greece correct? My name is Cassandra Alexandra by the way. You've also met my brother, Lucius. And this is Voldo."[/i] greeted the young Greek.

So Pyrrha is alive and in Venice... in the care of a wind priestess named Talim... I hope this Talim is kind with her... But Pyrrha is in Venice... Lucius was really excited to know where Pyrrha was and he was eager to go to Venice to find his niece but it seemed that this Tira Voldo was searching for was not with her and they promised to help him look for that girl... So as the Azure knight permitted them, they would search the castle to look for her then...
But just then, some armoured man came in. Lucius recognized him like his sister just did. They both met him at the Shrine yet maybe the knight didn't see him since he barely stayed. But it was good to see someone they knew was not evil. Voldo went to the German knight as Cassandra adressed Siegfried.
"I believe we've met before at Eurydice Shrine at Greece correct? My name is Cassandra Alexandra by the way. You've also met my brother, Lucius. And this is Voldo."
Also making some steps toward Siegfried, Lucius nodded in salutation then said:
"Hi. I'm sorry to sound so impolite but have you seen a girl named Tira around here?"
He hoped so then they could get this over with and run to Pyrrha...

Tira shook her head at the ninja's idea, "I don't like that game..."
However, she gave no other alternatives as she shakily stood up from the bed and made her way towards the door to seek the intruders - Eiserne or not. She could manage. Probably."I thought not, but you know my hopeful nature." Ishimaru sighed, not bothering to tell Tira she was not in the best condition to fight what sounded like multiple intruders. Unless a lot had changed since they'd last fought, arguing against fighting never worked. "Aren't you forgetting someone?" He asked casually, falling into step next to Tira.

Tira waved at Ishimaru with a clawed hand in a dismissive manner, the other hand was poised at her painted lips, attempting to shush the taller male who had appeared to her side, "Be quiet, unless you want them to find us first."
It was a quick turn of the door handle, and a merciful deity somewhere not making the door hinges squeak, that made the pale girl leave the room silently and begin seeking the voices of the intruders.
She guessed the ninja would follow. He was annoyingly persistent like that.

After putting distance between himself and the now occupied throne room, Nightmare pondered on how much time he would allow the trespassers to linger before he'd end their existences. What amount of time would the humans need to find this Tira person?
"Does it matter?" the knight muttered to himself, standing alone in the seemingly infinite darkness.
Silence fell upon the Azure Knight as he considered his options. It was still raining so perhaps...
"They have until the rain stops..."

"I'm sorry but I haven't saw anyone apart from you three when I entered the castle... By the way, may I know what are you doing here? I think everyone knows about the stories of this place" asked Siegfried.

"I believe we've met before at Eurydice Shrine at Greece correct? My name is Cassandra Alexandra by the way. You've also met my brother, Lucius. And this is Voldo."
The Eurydice Shrine? So they already knew this man... Voldo hissed quietly in acknowledgement.
"Hi. I'm sorry to sound so impolite but have you seen a girl named Tira around here?"
"I'm sorry but I haven't saw anyone apart from you three when I entered the castle..."
Voldo rasped in annoyance. God help her when he finally got his hands on her...
"By the way, may I know what are you doing here? I think everyone knows about the stories of this place."
Oh, Siegfried was right about that. Voldo nodded slowly in reply - he of all people knew the stories. Who wouldn't after serving here for so long?

"Actually, we're looking for our niece. We were told that her captor might have taken her inside here since she was a servant of the cursed sword.[/i] said Cassandra.

Lucius agreed.
"Yes. Pyrrha is our niece and Tira is the servant of Soul Edge. Now we must hurry to find this Tira before the man we met comes back."
Lucius then adressed Voldo.
"Where do you think we should search, Voldo?"
Lucius was still very eager to find Tira and go to Venice so he did not want to lose any time. He told Siegfried:
"You're welcome to come with us if you wish."

Tira waved at Ishimaru with a clawed hand in a dismissive manner, the other hand was poised at her painted lips, attempting to shush the taller male who had appeared to her side, "Be quiet, unless you want them to find us first."
It was a quick turn of the door handle, and a merciful deity somewhere not making the door hinges squeak, that made the pale girl leave the room silently and begin seeking the voices of the intruders.
She guessed the ninja would follow. He was annoyingly persistent like that.Ishimaru walked a few more paces, before reaching up behind a tapestry and tugging Tira's ring blade free, casually handing it to the assassin. "Oh, I didn't mean me." He murmured, smiling at Tira before running a ways up the wall and jumping up into the rafters. "Good luck, though." He was going to follow her anyway, of course; it'd be rather a waste of a trip if Tira got captured or killed by whoever was poking around. But Ishimaru was a ninja by trade, and part of that meant he was long since out of the habit of walking into a room when he could sneak in from somewhere people were less likely to be looking. One thing Ishimaru had learned about this dreary raven-infested pile of rocks was that Tira was one of the castle's only inhabitants with any inclination to look up when the animal parts of the mind sensed danger.

Tira sighed, easily catching her beloved weapon and caressing it lovingly, "Poor baby. Did he hurt you?" She cooed this to the ring of sharp metal before slinging it upon her left shoulder and made her way to the throne room.
Carefully. Of course. There seemed to be multiple targets.
The pain from her wounds dulled to a throbbing ache as she paused beside the small door that led from the side corridor the ninja had taken them to, and the grand throne room she sought.
Bugger. Someone had closed that door! Probably the ninja...
However, the girl glanced up thoughtfully at the rafter route the ninja had favoured.
Even idiots had to come out with a good idea eventually, she mused, running up the wall for some leverage, before grabbing a hanging rafter.
Oh well...this could only go wrong or very, very wrong; probably the latter.
With a sigh, and a pray to some deity she didn't even believe in, Tira climbed along the rafters and peered down.

he Azure Knight leaned against a wall in the dark hallway, waiting in silence for the rain to end. Would he really kill the people who intruded without cause? All they wanted was to find Pyrrha and this...Tira person. Did he truly have the right to end their lives for such a trivial thing as entering Ostrheinburg Castle without permission? Who knows, perhaps the humans will find what they came for and be long gone before then?
Nightmare raised his helmet which stared back at him with empty, black eyes.
"Perhaps when master returns, he can clear my mind of all of these doubts?" the red haired youth spoke aloud, his voice reverberating within the emptiness of the hall, echoing his doubts back to him.
The rain continued to pour as the night dragged on. Nightmare couldn't help but wonder if this situation would be resolved without bloodshed, or would tonight mark the return of the Azure Knight?

"Now we must hurry to find this Tira before the man we met comes back. Where do you think we should search, Voldo?"
It was obvious. Voldo hissed in reply. Venice.
Not that they'd understand him. He crouched down, prepared to write the name of the town on the stone -
A crackle sounded from overhead. Hadn't anyone else in this room heard that?!
Voldo rasped quietly to himself. Probably not. Their hearing clearly wasn't as sharp as his.
He paused before his katar touched the ground, listening intently.
There it was again.
Slowly, Voldo lifted his head and raised his sightless eyes to the rafters above.

Venice? This means that it was in Italy. The German knight has never been through this place before. So, it's obvious that it will be a slack if he will just venture to it alone and getting lost in the process...
Who knows? Maybe he will find to the whereabouts of Soul Edge from there since the Greek's niece was abducted by a servant of the cursed sword. So it was decided then that he will join them on their quest so that his life long goal would be fulfilled.
"If it is alright with you, may I please join you on your journey? I can help you with the search for your niece." proposed Siegfried to the group.
