Odin's wine of choice for today was a simple red, imported from the country known as Sin. A rarity, the bartender had said through slightly concerned breaths, but that didn't mean much to Odin, as he preferred taste above reputation when it came to wines. He sat at the front of the bar, taking up about three seats, simply because no one wanted to sit next to him. He didn't care, as he poured himself another glass, the bottle sitting next to him. The bartender was too scared to ask him for money to pay for his drink, which was definitely a perk of the new form. Naturally, being in the same business, Odin would happily pay once he had finished, he just currently had an open tab.

Looking around Varian noticed the lack of people, it seemed he was the only person there except for the bartender and some hulking mass over by the bar. Vega creeped up Under the skeleton’s chair and took a curious sniff before farting away unnoticed. Varian steppes firwaed and leaned over the bar, blowing a strand of hair out of his face, ”I’ll take whatever you decide to get me, I don’t know the names of the drinks.” he said nonchalantly. The part about not knowing th names of the drinks was true. After he had woken up he remembered some things but not the names of mixed drinks.
After the bartender handed him some mixed ice drink Varian chose a particular spot near a corner. Vega curled up under his chair. She didn’t close her eyes, she kept them trained on her surroundings, her ears twitching at the multitude of sounds. Varian began to sip his mixed drink, crocus had been through a lot recently. While he had not been a direct help in the protecting of crocus, he had been helping others. Though now that there seemed to be some calm at the moment he had decided on staying in case another wave of attacks followed. Varian sipped wuietly, his thoughts were a muddled mess at the moment, and with all the things that had happened to him recently, pulling out structures thoughts were hard. Maybe just quietly sitting want such a bad idea.

It was possible, in this land, that the man had a twin brother that looked exactly like him, almost like Lacie and her twin sister Alice. But this Varian character looked too exactly like his 'brother' that it seemed unlikely, while Lacie had stated that she and Alice were of slightly different builds, and even had different eye colours. That left the other option, and one that was much more interesting to the Lich if it was true.
"I must apologise if you truly do not know who I am, but I must ask: you said you needed a new name, did you forget you're previous name by chance?"
Odin didn't know much about the practice, having only heard stories from other members, but he knew the protocol for one who left Grimoire Heart. Many had originally thought that they had just died, been killed off by Icarus for abandoning the guild, but that seemed unlikely now that Odin knew a bit more about Crowley's character. The other rumour going about, the one that seemed much more realistic than murdering anyone that didn't believe in the guild anymore, was a complete erasure of their memories, making them forget about all their time in the guild, about their name and their magical abilities. It was punishment enough for one wishing to leave, and Odin was starting to suspect that it was what had happened to this man.

How would you know? I woke up in a room with nothing but stuff around me." Varian leaned in questioningly. He was hooked, if this person had any kind of knowledge of who he had possibly been, he was dying to know. But was it really worth it? He had lost his old emotions, but now he was a new person. He sat for a little while, confused on what to do. Finally he leaned back and listened to the Lich speak. It was at least to know who he had been, just so if anyone came running, wanting to kill Varian, he could at least no why. He silently crossed his toes, hoping he wasn't a murderer. The only person who might have an inkling of who he was currently was this Lich, who seemed to know who he was. Varian waited, internally impatient for answers. Taking sips of his drink to calm his nerves.

The man wanted to know as much as he could, and he had no idea of how much or how little Odin could give him, but the Lich had nothing better to do that day, and he'd always been interested in testing the limits of the memory wipe ability. It was a rarely seen magic, and the Lich wanted to know how good it was.
"Before I tell you what you might be missing, let's start from the beginning. When does your memory end and where does it pick up? And do you have any idea roughly how much time you're missing?"

Room which I assume was mine. I know I’m 19, and other than that I can’t remeber any images of my own life. All I can remember is feelings and Fiore’s own history. Other than that I draw a blank just white space.” Varian said. He leaned down and gave Vega a scratch. ”What if this isn’t my body? What if I’m from another world?! Well if it is, it isn’t a half bad body I guess.l Varian said. He looked at the man, well he thought it was a man.”Thanks for this.”

The boy had answered Odin's questions, so it was only fair now that he, too, receive some answers: "I can't tell you all that much, as we only met briefly, and I never caught your previous name. You were almost attacked by lycans in the Aldenwald: the forest area outside of Dahlia. You escaped using magic in an interesting magic, so we talked for a bit. You thought I was trying to kill you because of how I looked, but afterwards we went our separate ways. I was in a hurry to leave unfortunately, so I didn't catch any more information from you."

Then came the obvious question that Odin was expecting: the question of what they had been discussing. Naturally, the Lich couldn't just calmly bring up the mention of the guild, especially since the man had forgotten about it completely, and perhaps now hated what they once stood for, despite having once been a member. However, Odin had a way with words, having gained it from his times as a bartender. He knew how to talk to people, how to tell the truth without revealing too much, a form of lying that was much more difficult to catch out, as it was not a lie at all, and it was a skill he had employed many times in the past, this was nothing new.
"From what I can remember, you were in Dahlia looking for a dark guild. I think you were wanting to join up with one, so i pointed you to Oak town, since I know that's where Phantom Lord make their base. Other than that, it was mostly me praising your resourcefulness at not being killed by the lycans."

He seemed to know little, which was depressing. ”so I had an old magic? Magic is a part of who someone was so I wonder if it had any special reason to me.” Varian said. He had no idea what his life was becoming. He was probably cursed with whatever mark was on his chest, and he had no idea of his past self. Varian finished off his drink and groaned under his breath. ”I have to thankyou for this, I guess i now know I had some kind of life beforehand. I just wish to know what it was, imagine having something that you know existed but you can’t ever see it.” Varian groaned again, ”do you know which darkvuild I was looking to join, there is phantom lord and the one that had recently being attacking crocus itself. I can’t remeber its exact name but it’s still something I could have been in. If you have any Inkling that’d be greatly appreciated. “ Varian said.
He had no idea who he was in his past life, was he even that person anymore? He was him, he was Varian Chevalier, a character in book, it wasn’t even his name. He looked down at Bega then returned his gaze to Odin

It was ridiculously cliché, but it felt good for Odin to say, both for the man and for him personally. The man then began to talk of wishing he could know who he had been, and wondering aloud if Odin knew the feeling, although it was clearly rhetorical. Odin, amusingly, did understand somewhat, as he had lost all memory of his life before turning eight years old, and had no idea what had happened to his mother, who he never remembers knowing.
Then the fun question came, and the one that Odin would have to lie about. Luckily, as a Lich, his face was a skull, and a skull rarely showed emotion, or any twitches. Those motions were due to muscles and nerves, neither of which Odin possessed now. So he could lie freely without ever being discovered, which he was about to do. he felt bad, as he wanted to tell this man the truth, but rules were rules.
"I'm afraid I don't know which one you eventually joined, if any. You asked if I knew of any, and I only knew Phantom Lord's location, I'm sorry I can't help you there."

Unfortunately Varian was unsuccessful in learning what he didn with the dark guild information that the lich had apparently given him a long time ago. Varian thought for a few moments but then finally leaned back in his seat and sighed. "Thank you for all the information, its wonderful to at least know there is some kind of backstory to who I am.
But you've given me all the information you have,
so as token of my appreciation I'd like to buy you another glass of that wine." Varian said. He waved over the bar tender and had a bottle of wine, the same kind as lucifer drank placed infront of them. "Please, enjoy, its my symbol of thanks to you." Varian said. He poured himself a little bit and took another sip, maybe forgetting a little bit more wouldn't hurt anyone. Tipping the glass up, he took a long sip, downing a third of the glass.

About ten minutes then passed, with Odin simply drinking until the bottle was nearly depleted, before standing up. He had given the man the information he could, and had also gained some new insight into Grimoire Heart's practices, so the exchanged had worked both ways nicely, but now it was coming to a close. His skull in a perpetual smile, Odin bade the man farewell before exiting the inn, keeping a mental note of the name of the wine so he could get some for his bar when next he was back in Oak.

He sat in the same chair, Vega asleep in his lap for some time. But eventually he was sober enough to talk home. He stumbled through the night streets, Vega st adding protectively by his side the entire time. When he got home he wretched in the toilet, he had become very dizzzy. Cleaning out his mouth he prepared himself for bed. He felt like some kind of puppet, going through the motions. Step 1- completed
Step 2- completed
And that was how his life felt at the moment.
As he sat in the bed he thought himself to sleep. Rummaging over the things that had been said while the pair had been talking. Varian’s pursuit of a darkguild, which was confusing, he had once been a memeber of a dark guild. But now he had joined fairy tail. His magic had changed, and who knew how many times that was. It could have been once it could have been ten times. His brain was a mess as he fell asleep
