Dante got his first good look at the young man and the boys. “As I said I am Dante, I am glad I arrived in time though looking now you were more than capable of handling these men on your own” he said. The silver haired young man smiled and said “I am Jay, and this is Rowan and Sky. We might have been able to stop them, but we were surprised by them, your arrival gave us time to get our weapons so we could fight”. Dante got a closer look at Jay, he was slim and had a boyish face though he looked to be 18 or 19. Dante could not make out other features though Jays glamour. Then suddenly the glamour was gone, and Dante could see Jays features. He still had a boyish face, but they were enhanced by an etheric aura. His eyes were slightly slanted, and they seemed to shift colors depending on how you looked into them. Then Dante looked at the boys they both had the eternally youthful features and pointed ears of the elves. The older boy Rowan had deep green eyes and light brown hair. He was lean and had the look of a soldier wielding his two thin blades. The younger boy Sky had bright blue eyes and black hair. He was slim like Jay and had the look of an archer with his bow and knife. Dante nodded and looked around seeing some of the men still moaning and others lying still “I was happy to help but we should take care of some of this scum” he said. Dante saw some guards passing the alley and hailed them. The guards were happy to take care of the men. It seemed none of the men had been killed but a few had serious wounds. One of the guards went for help and he returned with Lucian and more guards. The took custody of the men and Lucian looked at Dante “It would seem I owe you for dealing with this scum” Lucian said. Dante nodded and told Lucian what had occurred before they moved off with the prisoners. Then Dante went back to Jay and the others. “What are you doing out here anyway?” Dante asked. “We are looking for a Slayer named Seth, I received a note that convinced me he was here in the city” Jay said. “You don’t mean Seth the Golden Slayer?” Dante asked. Jay looked shocked “Do you know Seth? Do know where he is?” Jay asked. Dante nodded and said “I know him, we worked together on several missions. I have not seen him in a long time. I had not heard that he was in the city”. Jay nodded “I had hoped you might have heard from him and knew where he was. We will just have to keep looking”. “If you find him or just need somewhere safe to stay, please come find me. I will find a way to let you know if I hear anything about Seth” Dante said. Dante told Jay where they he was he and his men were staying in the city and Jay told him about the inn where they were staying before Jay and the boys disappeared into the city again. Dante then returned to the manor where his men were waiting to hear what Dante intended to do next.
