Josh/Shin looked at the trunk for a long time, slowly he opened it and looked inside. "It looks like we were expected...." Inside were several items incuding bracers, a pair of swords, a set of books, and some different sets of clothing.

Looking up at emily he frowned and picked up the books with a small smile. "Well either the vortex just happened to suck up things we need to start our lives here... or someone brought us here..."

Emily blushed and knelt down - looking at the objects. She pickeds up one of the swords "I take it fighting is expected... She swings the sword about lazily.

Josh fingered through the books, looking at a multitude of spells and smiled at Emily's comment. "Combat is usually a given... I know how to use the things and could teach you, but I beleive I will be happier being a Mage..." He looked over at paige, wondering if she wished to be a mage as well. Which meant they would have to share, looking at Emily he wondered if all three of them would be mages...
~Three of us with the power of magic... could anything stop us?~

Emily placed the sword back in the trunk and looked up at Josh. "Hmmm a mage.." She had always had an interest in spell casting - but had never practiced it

Busily Josh handed her one of the books, then without a word of warning he stripped off his clothing and began slipping on a black/red robe. "Seems to be well fitting..."

Shocked at Josh's unwarned changing. Emily blushes and hurriedly looks down to the book he gave her, Looking back up when he was dressed and complimented him "Looks great."

Paige was too busy thinking to herself to notice the others. "I've some marital arts classes, but I'm not good. I have never touched a sword in my life. I believe, for the sake of us all, I will be a mage also."

Josh looked at himself and sighed, "No... this isn't for me..." Silently he dug into the chest and pulled out a Hakama. Quickly he slipped from the robes and into the hakama, tying off the sash he smiled. Reaching into the chest he came out with the bracers, grinning he strapped them on and noted their lightness. "Must be adamantite...."

(Alright, I'll play along)
Jason watched over the group from a tree branch, attempting to discern their hostility. Despite the fact that the katana and wakizashi stuck through his sash could not serve him in combat from the tree, he preferred looking at things from above to better ascertain them. Seeing no threat, he dropped to the ground, landing softly on his tabi and then replacing his zori (wooden slippers). Standing up, he dusted off his black hakama and his indigo blue kimono, heavily quilted to provide a small degree of protection even without armor. He adjusted his swords, and began walking towards the group in measured steps.
I've always found a sharp blade to be the truest of truths. When swords clash, nothing can save you but cold steel. he said.

Josh heard the man hit ground and immediately set into a stance in front of Emily. He relaxed slightly as the man spoke, with a grin he replied. "Ah, but without the spirit the sword's cold steel can save nothing." He extended his hand in the Old style as a warrior's greeting, "I am Josh or Shin if you prefer, these young ladies are Paige and Emily. Who are you?"

I am known by many names he began, returning the salute by holding up his right hand, fingers extended in a very priest-like greeting But you may call me Jason.
He continues to walk towards the group
And that is where the intrinsic power of the sword comes into play. It is a weapon who's skill is measured by the centering of one's mind and the immovability of one's soul. he continued, his left hand resting on his sash, where it met the pair of scabbards.

Still kneeling by the chest Emily smiled at Jason. Slightly un-nerved at the fact he had weapons. "Hi there...

Jason gave a slight nod towards Emily, acknowledging her presence but still remaining distant.
Does anyone know the purpose of this realm? I saw a bit of activity on the horizon while I was up in that tree. Perhaps we should check it out
