Vaan's black strider headed the party, with Vaan walking by it's side, his eyes glowing faintly in the darkness of the eternal Nerezzan night. He led that crew on throught he Wastes towards the softly-glowing form of the Darksoul Castle and the city below, never wavering from his course.
"Not far now," he told the group as he continued on, unflinchingly and unthinkingly taking the easiest direction.
None of the nerezzan wildlife bothered them; it was as if they could scent the danger that led them and stayed away.

" Not far... we are talking about how many hours left...? " Brad noted, looking a bit queasy- he wasn't used to be on a 'strider', and he felt his heart move around in his stomach.
Sometimes, he had to cast a minor air spell in the form of an air sphere just to regulate his breathing.

The swordsman traveled alongside Vaan and the strider, being sure to keep close the the group. They'd been on the move for a while now, but he was able to keep up with the others without too much trouble. It was difficult for the swordsman to see his surroundings; the further they delved into the heart of the country, the darker it became. - [Land Of Promise]"..." The swordsman glanced up at Bradley, who was starting to look a bit worse for the wear. Perhaps there was something that Bradley had not prepared himself for... the swordsman shook his head. With conditions growing increasingly less favorable, he'd have to do his best to stay alert.

Volkmar looked over at Bradley and notice that he was getting a sick look on his face, and moved his strider away from him. He looked over at Tidus, and asked, "So, is he from Spira too?"

Vaan shook his head. "About half an hour until we reach the Darksoul CIty. We'll stay there for the night and leave for the castle at moonrise."

The swordsman listened to conversation. It sounded like they were getting close to the capital. "..." The swordsman kept moving, all the while trying to stay aware of his surroundings...

Brad nodded, if weakly, at Vaan.
" You know this area best. I'll follow your judgement. "
Then he used another air spell to create an air sphere to regulate his breathing- heights, speed and darkness didn't go well together.

He looked up at Bradley. "You wanna walk for a while? You're showing all the classic signs of being nervous, right now."

Tidus turned to Volk, "Huh? Oh um, no he's not. He's from...the Material Plane I think." he paused, tapping his chin. "I met him a few times on a planet called Gaia, back when that mad scientist was around..."

"Mad scientist? Gaia? Material Plane?" He asked, "What the hell did you do before coming here?" He hopped off of his strider, and started to walk.

"It's a really long story," he said, also getting off his strider. "There are more worlds than Spira, Earth, and Allorum. I've been to a world called Gaia, but Brad is from the Material Plane...I've never seen it sadly. He did though."

" Uhm... I'll walk, if you don't mind. "
Then Brad hopped off, landing on the ground by Volk and Tidus, then began to breathe more normally.
" Sorry, Vaan, but I'm not used to be on a mount. " Brad called.

"It's okay. It's hard to get used to. And I've heard that riding horses is also very different from riding striders, so we don't mind when visitors can't or won't ride into Nerezza."
He shrugged. "We'll be there shortly."

"Great, I cannot wait for that." Volkmar said to Vaan, as he grinned. As he did, within the blacken sky there was flash of dark purple that was in the shape of a ring, while the center stay black.

The swordsman kept up with the pace of the group. He was listening carefully to the conversation but kept his guard up. Should something happen, he didn't want to be caught unawares. "...!" The swordsman saw the flash of purple cut through the blackness of the sky. It snapped him into an even higher state of alertness and he instinctively gripped his Killing Edge. The swordsman glanced over at the others and continued to follow their lead.
