[A thick screen of smoke obscures the watch's vision as several hellish sounds of... something being killed can be heard. The smoke and the dust eventually settle to reveal Ruby City's park, which, while not being exactly nice, looks like it's seen better days. Many of the trees are fallen and splintered in half, several monsters lie crushed and ( Read more... )

[The video feed turns on and shows a quiet room in the library, where one Ada Vessalius can be seen... studying?

Yes, by candlelight, no less. There's a lot of books and a few sheets of paper strewn about -- her tarot cards are arranged in a deck next to her as she peers into a book that she has with her, looking into it with a note of seriousness ( Read more... )
