Lightning Strikes: The Hothead and the Snow Beast

The train takes a plunge, inching forward at an excruciating pace as it leaves Onibus Station. It rocks back and forth, its relentless whining and groaning soon turning into the gentle purr of its racing wheels against the track. Samarra sat eagerly in her self appointed throne in the cable car, her body excited at the chance for adventure, for it had been quite some time since she had gone out on a job on her own. This job peaked her interest because it reminded her of the circumstances she faced in Onibus when she had first came to the town, before her guild had started and she knew what purpose she had to fill in this lifetime. The town that she was heading to, Edinburgh, was a small town due east of Clover Town that made its home in the comfortable grassy plains of Fiore and was known as a good place to stop to rest for those on their way to the Hunting Village. But the past two weeks, the quaint town had been taken over by a pair of two mages who had used their temperature based magics to control that of the towns goods and services for their own pleasure. Onibus had been facing a similar siege when Samarra first found her way to her new home, a group of Shattered Dusk mages had taken over the town and had been robbing the people of their money and goods. It was true that Samarra had driven those mages away, but they would soon make their way back to hurt her and her family in a spiteful vengeance for kicking them out of what they saw as their home. Back then she had only though of protecting the people of Onibus from the wrongful robbery that the dark mages were imposing on them, but she hadn't really thought about what driving them out of town would do for their livelihood. That she was kicking them out of the place they had made as home, and so in her eyes she was the bad guy, making for an understandable grudge held against her. But this time she was going to try and be different. This time she had a guild of her own that she could call home. A guild that she could use to welcome others in to as long as they we open to abandoning their devious ways. As the train came to a halt outside of clover town Samarra got off and began her walk towards the small town to the east, vowing to herself that this time she would do all she could to understand her opponent's motives so she can help both them and the people of the town.
