Leaning against a buckling and bent railing that encloses a decaying balcony of the Burmecian palace, staring out at the ruined city which is slowly being eaten away by the torrent of rain and water is a gloomy shadow of a jackal-rat like figure, its tail flicking about.
"I really need to find someplace a little drier..." Mutters Loci, flipping his wet fallen hair away from his face and eyes. "This rain has started to become annoying to say the least." As he leans against the railing, a slow creaking sound is heard, it steadily gets louder. "Also, it's just so damned depressing. I swear, people will think I'm emo if they saw me like this and even wors..." As Loci carries on talking to himself, the creaking turns into cracking till finally. "...my blasted jitte's have wondered off aggggggg." The railing finally buckles and Loci is sent tumbling over the edge, falling to the ground a number of meters below.
Loci recovers after a moment, shaking his head of the water and mud. He sits up before pulling out the iron rod from his gut, tossing it aside he plants his hands in his lap then sighs. "This just keeps getting better and better."

"Yes it does....doesn't it..."
:Infinity stands over Loci, whom has always seemed to be a pest to him through the years but never a threat:
"What are you up to Loci?"

Loci lets out a long drawn out sigh as he rolls his eyes at the sight of Infinity. "Well, if it isn't the summoner boy?"
Loci blinks away, reappearing next to Infinity, arm draped across his shoulder buddy buddy like.
"Still alive I see, most excellent. How things back at... where you from again? Well doesn't matter, not like I care." Loci attempts a half smile as he talks, its obvious it pains him to do so. "As for me, I'm just..." He stares at the pile of ruble from the once balcony. "I'm just remodeling. What you think?"

:Grabs his arm and removes it from his shoulder:
"Ah...my favorite pest...."
:Infinity steps back from him and looks at the situation:
"...what are you doing Loci? I'm surprised I haven't heard of anything you've been doing lately. Laying low?"
:Smirks:

"Laying low!? Why ever would you think that!?" Loci remarks sarcastically. "It's just merely the fact nothing has aroused my interest. You know me; if there's nothing to gain, why bother? Am I right?" Loci steps back as well then nudges Infinity in the chest with his elbow. "Am I? Ya, you know I'm right."
Loci flicks his wet hair away from his face, it whacks Infinity on the side of the head. "This rain can be so annoying. You know what it's like to have wet fur?" Loci asks of Infinity as he walks a short distance away and takes a seat in a high-backed chair that rests under a tattered gazebo. What something like that was doing outside in the rain is anyones guess. Sitting comfortably, his legs crossed, Loci beckons to Infinity. He motions for him to take a seat on a short and rather unstable looking 3-legged stool.
"Please, join me Summoner. You've been asking me all the questions, I'm curious as to why you have sought me out and..." Pausing a moment for effect. "What could possibly be troubling this reality once more."

:Wipes his face off and shakes his head:
(He has always had his way to annoy me...)
"Loci, the only thing I am concerned about is that it seems like you never appear until something goes wrong or some new enemy shows up."
:Looks at the stool:
(Got to be kidding me...)
"...Loci, what do you know of the portal jumpers Drake and his target? Surely you know something...if not....what DO you know?"

Loci's ears perk up at the question. "Drake, you say? Interesting. Give me a moment please while I consult my 'informants'."
Loci closes his eyes, his head falls to his chest and his body goes limp as if he where unconscious. A moment later his head springs up and he shakes himself loose. "Ah ok. Well what I could gather is that Drake appears to not be from any of our known planes. He perhaps is from some outword or the like, not too sure. His cell structure is completely foreign to me, will take some time to break through." Interrupting his train of thought, Loci snaps his fingers. A beverage in a coconut shell appears in his lap, he pauses for a moment then sighs. "Another Mon Tiki... got to work on this more." He sips it then continues. "Anyway, Drake is after another just as strange being called Zhadaska. This Zhadaska seems to be human with what I believe may be dragon mixed in. Not going to ask what his parents honeymoon was like."
Loci takes another sip of the Mon Tiki and throws it over his shoulder. "Both are in the Thunder Plains, as I'm sure you're already aware. I would be cautious with this Drake fellow, he perhaps may have a false-face about him. As for Zhadaska, I could theoretically kill him now if you wish. His body's immune system wasn't hard to crack, but what's the fun in that? As for their motives... that still eludes me, they haven't been here long enough but what I do know for certain, Zhadaska is after a power boost and if he gets it capturing or killing him, whatever your objective, will be made all that much more difficult." Loci shrugs. "That's all I could figure out right now, sorry I couldn't be more help. Oh by the way, you're three days away from an influenza infection. Just an FYI."

:Infinity grins:
"You cease you amuse and amaze Loci..."
"...so you, what are YOU doing? Still beat around that question."

Loci points to himself. "Me? Why I am not doing anything, well I was drinking a Mon Tiki and helping you but now that is over, I'm merely sitting here." Loci smirks devilishly. "I probably would try to kill you for old times sake but... my weapons have wondered off again. Once a jitte learns to 'dance' they just won't hold still for more then a second. It's quite annoying."
His eyes scan left to right, inspecting the scenery. "If you happen to see them, please let me know."

:Grins and leans against a nearby wall:
"I gladly will Loci..."
:Sighes:
"So where have the others been? Blue...Randi....Kayo.....even Zion and Nev?"

"Oh you know them, they dissappear from exsistance for awhile then pop back into the picture when you least expect it." Loci replies matter of factly. "I'm sure they're fine... specially that Randi..." His voice turns hostile at the mention of that name.
The wall Infinity is leaning agianst suddenly crumbles and falls to the ground. Loci rolls his eyes. "Please, summoner, you must be more careful." With that statement Loci gets to his feet and starts walking towards a door leading into the palace. "If you will excuse me, summoner, I have some small matters to attendt too an airship in a bottle doesn't build itself now does it? I'll be sure to let you know if I make any headway with your two friends."

:Infinity nods at that and fades away:
