Carina smiled and looked up towards Syl and nodded, "I plan on the same." she told him with a grin before looking back ahead. She sighed lightly and smiled at the sunshine hitting her face, though it was slowly beginning to set, "Do you want to travel through the night or settle down somewhere to rest?" she asked as she watched the breeze flicker around them.

Isis took one first, grabbing a purplish one. She gave it a lick, expecting it to taste like fish. Moment of truth. Stella had taken one as well, a green one. She was ready for the taste of trash as she went to lick hers. There was no way that Luna could turn around so quickly on this. Cooking so terribly for years only to suddenly make something good? That was impossible.

At the mention of finding a place to rest, Syl finally became aware of the time. "Oh, wow, I didn't even realize it was getting so late. Um, I dunno. Either works. Maybe just through the night if we don't find somewhere nice?" He didn't exactly want to travel off the road too much, barefoot as he was, but if they found a decent spot to bed down he'd be okay with it.
Kaz was watching the two testing out Luna's newest creation carefully, a red one in his own hand. With Luna so focused on them, he was managing to get away with not having to be the guinea pig this time around. Luna's eyes widened with every second, nearly bulging out of her head when they took the first lick. She'd had to slice and mince all the fruit by hand to the point it would work in a popsicle, which had been hours and hours of work, then get it and the plain yogurt mixed together with just a bit of sugar. It had to taste good. It just had to. There was no way she could've messed it up.

Carina nodded lightly to him, "That sounds like a plan to me!" she chimed in return as they continued strolling. After awhile the sky started to turn a deeper red as the sun dipped lower towards the horizon. Carina kept her eyes out for a place for them to settle that might work. Ahead there was a small gathering a trees that soon leaked into a forest, "How about up there?" she asked pointing towards the small clump.

Syl was actually thankful the sun was setting, save for the half hour or so it shone directly in his eyes, but it meant he had a chance to sleep. Goodness he was tired. His blue eyes glanced over to the spot Carina had pointed out, lighting up a bit when he saw it. "Oh, yeah! That looks good. No warnings about this forest having monsters or anything, right?" He chuckled a bit, hoping he hadn't just jinxed them.

Carina shrugged lightly to him, "I can use a concealment spell to hide our area." she told him with a smile. Heading towards the area she sighed lightly and smiled as she settled down into the grass and leaned back against the trunk of a tree. As the sun set and stars came out above them her eyes light up excitedly, "Would you like to hear a story?" she asked lightly as she searched the sky for a moment or two.

"Works for me!" Syl chuckled again, glad that his fear of monsters had been assuaged. He tried to hide behind an air of confidence, but really was timid about most everything, beasts hiding in the woods included. He made his way towards the grove of trees, the feeling of the cool grass between his toes rather pleasant, and sat down cross-legged across from her. "Yeah, sure. What did you have in mind?"

Carina smiled and adjusted where she sat a bit so she could see the constellation a bit better. "The story about my name." she told him with a smile as she then pointed up towards a bright star in the sky, "That star is Carina, but if you follow it down it creates a sort of W shaped box. That's the constellation Carina, the Keel." she smiled as she began to tell him about it. "The Keel is only one of three though, that whole constellation up there," she traced a large piece of sky out for him, "That Argo Navis, a boat sent out to collect the golden fleece of Aries. Jason was the rightful heir to the throne of Iolcus, but his uncle Pelias took it from him when he was a child. So Pelias made him a deal that if Jason could travel across the Black Sea to Colchis and retrieve the golden fleece of Aries, he would succeed and earn his throne back." Her eyes were bright and her smile was sweet as she told him this tale of adventure and heroism. "So Jason entrusted the work of building a huge and amazing boat that could withstand the journey to Argus. Argus built him a giant ship with 50 oars for paddling, and it was such an amazing ship that even Athena took notice and fitted the prow with a vision of Zues for protection. As they set out, Jason took 50 of the greatest Greek heroes of the time, including the twins Castor and Pollux who would be known as the constellation Gemini, the hero Hercules, the musician Orpheus, and the builder of Argo Navis as well." she paused glancing to Syl to make sure she wasn't boring him.

Syl was anything but bored, even if his eyes were looking up towards the constellations to try and see what she was talking about. "Go on, I'm listening, sorry." He was completely enraptured with her tale, she had quite the knack for storytelling it seemed. "I've never heard of anything like this before." A grin crossed his own face as he managed to make out one of the constellations she'd been talking about, rather proud of himself for that.

Carina laughed gently at his enthusiasm and smiled, continuing her tale, "Well, as they began their 2,000 mile journey to fetch this golden fleece, they came to the greatest obstacle they would face, the Clashing Rocks, or Symplegades. These were the gates into the Black Sea and they opened and closed like a door, crushing any who were foolish enough or simply just not fast enough. Jason lead the heroes onward and they pushed forward without fear. They emerged on the other side, with merely a scratch on the stern of Argo Navis. It's said that after they breached those rocks they never closed again. The Clashing Rocks submitted to the Argo Navis and released their rage, forever standing as a simple gate to the Black Sea now. On the Argo Navis went to the shores of Colchis and they stole away the golden fleece from King Aeetes. After which, they began their sail back towards Iolcus to retake the throne for Jason. Upon the shore, Jason left Argo Navis as a tribute to Poseidon of the Sea. So enraptured by the beauty of the boat was the sea god that he tossed into the sky, forever sealing it there as stars for all to admire. For easier distinguishing, the Argo Navis constellation was split into three small ones." as she spoke the names of each, she began to trace them in the sky, leaning towards Syl so he could see them as well, "Vela, the sails, who lead them onward with power and unfailing strength. Puppis, the stern, who withstood the test of battle and remained unyielding and brave. And Carina, the keel, who balanced and righted the ship in waters of uncertainty." she smiled to him and nodded, "That is how I was given my name, my parents thought I would help to bring balance and stability to all those I assist." she sighed lightly as she watched the sky a bit. "I can tell you so many more stories about the stars but, I can save those for another night."

As Carina spoke Syl closed his eyes, letting the visions her story was conjuring up dance through his head. Pictures of grand adventures and even grander heroes flitted around the blackness that was his lack of vision, at least until she finished her tale. "Wow..." He whistled a bit as he opened his eyes, a huge smile breaking out on his face. "That's pretty amazing! You definitely got an awesome name. Also, definitely more stories another night. That was great."

Carina smiled at him and nodded happily, "I can tell you about Canis Major and Minor, the wolves of the sky since you seem to like wolves so much." she teased him lightly as she settled herself back against a tree and sighed happily as she looked up at the sky. "My brother Pollux is named for a star too, the Gemini twins. He did have a brother when we were young, Castor, but he died when we were young." she shrugged gently, her smile faltering a moment as she tipped her head back and slowly closed her eyes. Though she opened then and rose to her feet, "Forgot something." she murmured with a smile. "Concealment Magic, Dome." she murmured, casting magic over them in a large dome to hide them from others.

(Hey!)
Casinatta paused. "Hm, going on a job with someone different, that does sound interesting," She agreed. "Let's see if there is a good, quick job." She started heading back to the guild as well, walking beside Judah.

Mako continues forward unaware of Nate rushing towards the guild as well. He couldn't wait to brag to the others and enjoy a refreshing drink. He could almost taste it! Mako was a bit curious who see who had missed him and who didn't even know he had gone off on a mission.

Judah nodded lightly and pushed his hands into his pockets as they walked back to the guild hall. He thought quietly about how the two of them might work together. Casinatta was a use of Guns Magic while he used Metal Magic. Come to think of it, he'd never actually ever seen Casinatta fight so he wasn't even sure what she preferred to do.

Casinatta walked back to the guild. She knew they would probably go with an easier job, since the two never worked with each other before. In fact, she hasn't worked with anyone but her siblings the entire time she was at the guild, so she had no idea how well she would work with any of the guild.

Dale stood in front of the job board with his muscular arms crossed over his chest and a quizzical look on his devilishly handsome face. His silver crescent moon pendant was shining brilliantly against his deep tanned skin, hoping to catch the eye of a girl who would pass by. Finding partners was defiantly not a challenge for Dale, but picking a job could be considered challenging to him. The 20 year old hadn't been on one for a few months now and each day he seemed to be more desperate to find work, however for the right price that is. So he just continued to stand there and gaze at the board.

Judah strolled with her to the missions board and his eyes flicked over it lightly looking for something a bit more simple but not completely too easy either. He noted a mission about a book theif. Someone had been stealing library random books from the Freesia Town Municipal Library as well as mixing up books on the shelves. The reward was 100,000 which seemed reasonable in his mind, as well as any ten books from the library. The mission was to simply solve why the thief was stealing books and help the library put their shelves back in order. "How about that one?" he inquired tapping it.

Isis blinked in surprise, pulling it away from her mouth. "Wow, that actually tastes pretty good." Her tone of voice showed Kaz that she wasn't joking or faking it, she actually meant it. And when Stella nodded in agreement and kept licking at it, it only solidified that for once, Luna had actually succeeded in making something tasty. Now just just needed to put her focus on the part of cooking that only required putting things together and that was it. Better than all the burned stuff they'd been fed.

Casinatta scanned it, standing in front of the board beside him. "Hm, that sounds good," She said. "Not too difficult, and for an easy reward. It works." She smiled. "Just let me grab some of my guns before we head out." She didn't carry all of them at once unless at a job, usually only holding one or two.

Judah nodded lightly to her as he took the paper off the board, and reported it to their guild master simply. Then he shrugged his jacket off and tossed it to where his sister was sitting with a light smile and nod to her. Jacqueline rolled her eyes and Judah headed off to the door to wait for Casinatta quietly.

(Alright!)
Jacqueline rolled her eyes as Judah threw his jacket to her and she glanced around quietly. Her eyes caught on Dale and she smirked lightly to herself before rising to her feet. The water mage was handsome, she'd give him that, but that Charm he was using, she knew enough about him it didn't affect her. Rising to her feet and strolling over to Dale she tipped her head to the side, "Need a partner?" she asked with an arch of her brow.

Casinatta came back with all of her weapons. "Never know what you might need," She said. "Did you tell the Master that we're taking a job?" She didn't see either of her siblings anywhere, so she thought they went home without realizing that they were on a job themselves.

Judah nodded lightly, "Yep." he replied lightly as he opened the door for her to head out, "We can take the train to Freesia Town and get there in a few hours." he told her as he headed out with her and sighed lightly at the sunlight on his skin once again.
