[Indeed. There is a maze-ish, puzzle-like set of rooms and corridors in the temple of each town. A summoner and her guardians must work together to solve the puzzle so they may enter what i have dubbed 'the waiting room of the fayth' xD...The guardian's wait in this small room while the summoner goes ahead into the Chamber of the Fayth and prays for many hours. It is an exhausting process and many fledgling summoner-would-be's have even died. If the summoner prays hard enough, their prayers will be answered and they will be rewarded with an Aeon, a creature with enormous power which the summoner can effectively 'summon' to fight for him/her. Once a candidate for the position summoner has recieved their first aeon, they are a full-fledge summoner. After this, the process of acquiring aeons in the other temples becomes much less strenuous though it is still a notable task and some aeons may be harder to gain than others. The pilgramage that summoners must go on consists of they and their guardians forming a party and traveling the world to collect all the aeons they can, training in the mean while. Once a summoner reaches Zanarkand, one of her guardians is chosen to become the Final Aeon. The Final Aeon will inevitably defeat sin but the summoner's life is forfeited with the summoning and he/she dies. They are revered and honored for their sacrifice by the people and given a special title of 'High Summoner'. Sin returns after a ten year calm period and the process is repeated again. There is not just one summoner. There are many at a time and in a disturbing way, are 'competing' to see who can defeat Sin first. This is the basic info and all you need to know for now >}...Since higher thoughts don't come til' Rikku and Tidus pave the way o.o...It is sufficient. Oh and yes; the first Aeon one recieves in the game is Valefor.]

[Please. Don't pain me. The concept is indubiably simple, Ruby. How could you NOT get such a thorough explanation? I didn't even use that many big words .__.;;]

Shippou groaned and sighed simultaneously, offering a quick apology to the monk and dashing up the stairs towards the Cloister of Trials after an impatient and angered Sesshoumaru.
In around fifteen minutes, Sesshoumaru burst into 'the waiting room of the Fayth', immediately followed by Shippou.

Kanna's head, and probably Inuyasha's also, jerked up once she heard someone storm into the room where the two were waiting for Kikyo to come back into. And here she was just getting her mind into a relaxed state, trying to review the necessary steps in order to learn a new spell she could use in battles on the pilgrimage.
Eyes narrowing dangerously, she stood up and placed her hands on her hips giving both Shippo and the newcomer a dubious look. "Why did you come? Did worrying finally get to you?"

Shippou jabbed Sesshoumaru lightly in the side with his elbow and leaned over and whispered, "Toldja." He then strode forward to greet LuLu. "Well...I...Uh..."

Kanna glanced at Shippo giving him the look 'You better tell me who the hell he is later on or else I''m gonna hurt you' before saying. "She should be done anytime now..."

[...Mayhap Ruby will not post in this for awhile...I royally pissed her off >.>...]
Shippou nodded stiffly and glanced around just in time to detect the first rumblings of the door...

[oh dear... o.o;; I gotta run like in a few minutes but I'll be back laters ^^;;]
Also hearing the door, she turned to look almost with relief that Kikyo may have finally been done.

Sesshoumaru turned slowly to eye the door with some curiosity. His head nearly tilted to the side. At last he would see what this 'apprentice summoner' looked like...At last he would be seeing what any of these strange folk they talked about looked like.

{Oh, God...-.-; It's not that I don't get the concept or your explanation, Shia....-.-;; I just find it annoying to play something I know pretty much nothing about. I can't work on descriptions, for I haven't really seen the game either, nor can I explore the character's backstory like I enjoy doing cuz, let's face it, I know bubbles about them. So forgive me if I don't seem all that perky and excited about this RP, but it's just not all that much fun to me. Heck, I don't think you'd enjoy it either if you were in my place. But anyway...}
At long last, the doors cracked open, revealing the image of a slightly incredulous-looking Kikyou. "I did it...I've become a... summoner..."
Another moment passed and the new summoner felt awfully exhausted, as if all of her strength had been drained away and she tumbled forward. Luckily, her ever-loyal guardian Inuyasha ran to her aid just in time to catch her before she rolled down the stairs before her. "Thank you..." She murmured.

[Well...Then just remember Yuna's basic personality traits and you can completely veer from canon...] [-jams to Mustard Plug-]
Sesshoumaru, who had started to move like everyone else in the room when Kikyou fell, halted himself as InuYasha came to her aid. Needless to say, his eyes were wide. He had been expecting her to be some...old geezer.
