As Kurai waited he went over the guest list in his mind. Most would say that Dantalion was an odd choice to ask to join him on this journey. They were very open about their disdain for sin and how they wanted to cleanse the world and all that, but that's why he liked Tali. They were upfront about their ambitions. At the end of this, the two would surely come to odds. He could overlook that little detail for now as long as they could help each other. Strong allies suited both of their goals. He was somewhat surprised when the man appeared out of thin air, but tried his best to hide the slight jump. “I hope so. We've got a lot to talk about.”

At first, Kurai wasn't sure about inviting Ingrid to this talk. He couldn't get a good read on the woman during their brief interaction at Ender Island. It wasn't easy to gauge how trustworthy one could be after so little time together. Most of what he knew about her was that she was able to hold her own not only against the creatures swarming the boat but against Rojin's incessant nagging. In the end, it was her relationship with Elara that earned her an invitation. One that he wasn't sure she could accept. When Ingrid arrived he greeted her with a wave as she sat. Speaking of where is Elara? He had expected the two to arrive together. Strange.

Morgana's disdain for Earth-Chan and the system made her an obvious choice. It would be silly not to invite her. If he started up the guild without her and she found out later it may cause problems. It was better to have her in on the ground floor. Besides having a witch around could prove beneficial. When she arrived Kurai wasn't surprised that she opted not to use one of the provided chairs. Even if she did she would likely only complain anyway. “One I hope we can fulfill together.”

When he met Faith Kurai was almost certain at least one of them would die. Thankfully both of them were still standing. If not for her he likely would never have had the idea to gather like-minded individuals to his cause. With his sister firmly on the side of the system, he thought he'd have to go about the endeavor alone. When she arrived he returned her wave as she sat.

After waiting for what seemed like forever Kurai began to get frustrated with how long it was taking for the rest of the group to arrive. He began to tap his fingertips together causing sparks of black and red electricity to shoot out each time they touched. Eventually, he rubbed his hands together and pulled them apart to reveal a strand of similarly colored lightning connecting the two. He then began to play with and create shapes with it like one would a piece of string.

When he got tired of waiting Kurai raised his right hand in the air and created a red pentagram on the ground beside him. From it, a knee-high golem seemed to crawl out of the ground before looking up at its summoner with dead glowing eyes. “Vassago go find the stragglers. Make sure they weren't dumb enough to get themselves killed.” The little golem then scuttled its way up the stairs and out into the streets of Gothica. Unfortunately for the dutiful creature, it just missed one of the people it was looking for as Xibalba entered the building after they were out of sight.

Although he didn't know Xibalba well Kurai felt he got along well with the man. Their past, as mysterious as it still was to him, was drenched in blood. That experience could come in handy in the future. Despite that, they still seemed like a mostly good person. On the surface at least. Worst comes to worst they were still weak enough to be eliminated easily. He could probably even get Tali to do it for him. The thought crossed his mind as the other man was hours late when they came through the door. Instead of being greeted with a smile and a wave they were met with crackling lightning and a glare that could pierce through stone. "You're late."

By the time Elara arrived Kurai had mostly calmed down, but was still playing with the electricity coursing over his hands. When she pulled out a cigarette a spark flew from the tip of his fingertip to light it for her. She was the person he knew the longest in the group, but they'd still only done a couple of missions together. She always managed to find a way to get herself hurt though. "So what did it this time?"

Kurai knew surprisingly little about the people he was about to plot deicide with. That was no more apparent than when a woman he didn't even know walked through the door. If Faith hadn't prepared him for Diana's arrival she likely wouldn't have survived walking through the door. Once she sat down he let the electricity coating his hands fizzle out before he waved to her. “Don't worry about him. Xi hasn't met everyone yet.”

Shortly after Vassago came back through the door after completely missing everyone it was searching for. It tried at least... Kurai motioned it over and leaned over to whisper something to the golem. It responded with a loud BAH! before making its way back through the door to follow its new orders.

“Alright. Last chance to walk away before you know too much. Anyone who decides to leave after now will be dealt with accordingly. If you intend to stay then introduce yourselves.”
