i promise we'll walk across the moon someday soon
FULL MOON CODA
The moon wanes, and retreats into the sky.
After a quick chat and a vote, the otherworldly wizards, their mentor, and their sage decide to hand Victor over to the Central government—to the young wizard who appeared later in the ordeal. As both a sage's wizard and Crown Prince to the Central throne, Prince Arthur is the ideal person to understand both the discriminatory behavior driving Victor against wizards and the political ramifications of his actions, both past and planned. He pledges to you to make sure that, even if you aren't around to see it, Victor pays for what he's done and then some, while respecting Tatara's wishes to avoid bloodshed. He'll manage his case, while making sure his uncle, Vincent, does not have too much sway, due to his relationship with the West. Ultimately, he'll be locked up for life, put to hard labor, and made sure his intelligence is not misused.
When the sun rises, everyone gets to work repairing the manor. The damage is pretty bad but not unsalvageable, and it's made a lot easier with the help of some of the other original wizards who trickle in as the day begins. So long as it hasn't been burnt into absolutely nothing, it's salvageable—hopefully your figurines are safe!
For the first time since you arrived in this world, things feel stable. The brittleness in the air is no longer there, and there's a serenity to the breeze and the sky. It's comfortable. As the previous sage and sage's wizards begin to go about their business as usual, they mention anomalies and other odd incidents they must take care of around the world, but it is nothing like what you initially remember. This is no longer a world a hair's breadth away from falling apart, and you fixed it.
Whether you noticed it in the chaos of the final fight, or you hear it from someone else, or you notice on your own in the days that follow, you will realize that your sage crest is gone. With the other wizards in place again, your job here is done. Quite literally. You are no longer obligated to Tatara or to this world. All that's left is to go home.
A day and time is chosen for the ritual, and you have a few days after the final battle before the ritual is ready. This would be a good time to wrap up loose ends before you go, perhaps for good.
And when the ritual is ready, you'll know.

Well, I don't think the majority of you have easy access to a time travelling being. But who's to say it can't be safely replicated without the need for magic of that strain.
[A beat, and his eyes soften.]
Yes. Of course I will.
I just hope it's something I can find an answer to sooner, rather than later. [He has eternity. Many of the rest do not.] For your sakes.
no subject
[And by that he means harassing Robin.
Still, after a short pause and a great amount of reluctance:]
...There's something else I might need some help with, though. If you think you're up to the task in this world.
no subject
[Ahito? Asking HIM for help? :crymeow:]
I'm not exactly going to be in the mood to stay idle, so I can certainly try. What was it you had in mind?
no subject
...
I'm going to keep the magic from this world. But... it's still a problem if my magic from home activates.
I need to figure out what the best way to get rid of it would be.
[Guess who was bluffing on the whole breaking a promise to kill his magic thing!!!]
no subject
Solomon hums his acknowledgement as his arms cross in front of him, looking at Ahito's eyes in thought as he tries to pull together a more realistic answer.]
...A seal would be the simplest option. Removing the magic entirely, though... mm.
[If it were so easy, he wouldn't need an artifact to keep his own powers from tearing him apart.]
There could be ways to drain it to another source. But that's hard to localize to something like a body part. It would be much riskier to your life.
Does it have consequence if you refuse to use it for too long? Or is it just how quickly it activates that's the bigger concern?
no subject
The main problem is being unable to look at someone if they're sick or injured without risking my own life.
no subject
Mm. If there's a way to stop that and save your life to be lived...
I'll see what we can do. [His lips quirk into a slight smile.] Have you spoken to any of the Sage's wizards? Their abilities are going to go well beyond what you and I can do.
no subject
I don't trust those guys. And there's not enough time to get a good read on them.
no subject
Are you comfortable if I speak with them, then?
[A hand is raised before Ahito can shoot it down just yet.]
I only say that because what I could offer at home and what I can offer here are two very different things. Having their experiemce might give us more options. And I won't let them harm you.
But if you genuinely don't want them involved, I will try what I can on my own.
no subject
You know more about magic than most of the people here, so I figure you'd know what would actually work and what wouldn't.
It'll be a serious problem for me if both types of magic get sealed away, or if it messes up my body even more. But there's not too many people I know here who can avoid doing anything like that on accident.
no subject
Still... that's a considerable amount of trust you're putting in me, isn't it?? [Only somewhat joking. Really, he wouldn't have seen this happening when they first met. That Ahito is letting his guard down enough might not show true trust in Solomon, sure, but it's enough of a practical nod to his abilities that Ahito finds him a decent enough option.
Decent is better than nothing.]
Mm. Let me make a few house calls to our hosts to weed the unnecessary ones out and see what's possible, and we'll go from there. Does that sound reasonable?
no subject
[He's stubborn, but even he can't deny the facts when it's right in front of his face like that.]
And- yeah, that'll work for me.
