[Kenoma] Discussion
( π£ - Emet, π΅ - Ciel )
Good Evening.
There are some within our ranks who we have not had the pleasure of meeting. I am Emet-Selch. Ciel and I serve as tacticians and teachers to the Kenoma.
I function as acting counsel for devising strategies. Additionally, some of you may find yourself in possession of new magical abilities that you did not have before. I am available to assist you with honing your newfound magical skills. To those of you who find yourself injured, I can provide my magic to heal your wounds so that you may be hale and whole once more.
[ He sighs. My, is this a mouthful. ]
My name is Ciel. I am versed in martial arts and am proficient with most types of weaponry. There are various means of developing melee combat prowess across Achamoth, but if you would like personalized instructions at any level, please contact me and weβll arrange for a schedule. I can also perform magical healing along with Father Paul.
Unfortunately, We do not have much time for pleasantries. The Pleroma will soon be at our doorstep. Their goal is to retrieve their allies who remain captive inside our walls, and our goal is to lure them deep within the Citadel where we may enact our own plans. You will be provided assignments once it is closer to the promised hour. Prepare in your own way meanwhile; The Citadel is host to all manners of weaponry and the army's training grounds.
[ Itβs kept a little vague and unspecific. Though they do intend to give adequate information, there is also no question that they have had traitors in their midst as of late. Everything will be doled out with due caution. Although, there will be a silent message sent to each person asking them to respond with some information of their abilities. ]
We are at war, bloodshed is inevitable. We will be attacked soon, and we must defend our keep. Consider this communion address a formal hub for discussion and organization of the battle to come. We will begin with information sharing of the Pleroma: knowing their names, appearances, and capabilities will better prepare us in dealing with them in combat. Aions may develop new abilities at any time, however; intel from the mission in Venera and Godsblood may very well be outdated by now, so do not assume anything we go over in this address as the extent of what they can do. Anything you may have witnessed at the shrines can be helpful, including other newcomers you may have met that did not return to Achamoth..
To the third wave of newly awoken Aions, it is regrettable that we cannot welcome you better, youβve unfortunately arrived at a tumultuous time on Horos. If this is all too much for any reason, thatβs fine. Contact me privately, and we can at least arrange for you to be somewhere safe during this. To those used to wielding great power, please get some practice in and verify your new limits. Becoming an Aion may have weakened you, do not let that catch you off-guard on the battlefield.
To those who are new, introduce yourselves and ask any questions you have. We will answer your questions as best we can, and I encourage our fellow Kenoma to chime in where they may. Do try to keep your questions interesting enough to be worth reading.

Oh, pardon me... Is it possible that you were in a similar line of work yourself?
no subject
... I suppose you could say that, although I did not consider it a 'job'.
[ A slightly surly pause. ]
No doubt it must have been... satisfying, to be entrusted with so many essential tasks.
no subject
Oh, I would have preferred to have not been the sole point of competence within the manor I served, but such was my master's whims. He was quite lucky that I do not require rest, as I would not have been able to do all of this otherwise.
[ ...So even without the empathy, the resentment isn't exactly unclear with his words. ]
Though, if I may, if it was not a job, what would you have called it, in that case?
no subject
Merely the responsibilities I was glad to take on in gratitude for my master's kindness.
no subject
[ ...He was never glad to take them on, exactly. It was forced upon him, and Ciel was just exceptionally lucky that Sebastian had ended up taking enjoyment from them. But. ]
But the manner of speaking is certainly similar, so... If you would indulge my curiosity, as it is something I am still thinking on myself. How do you find it here, not having a master?
no subject
...Even before I came here, it has been some time.
no subject
Ah, how loyal... Though you have my apologies, naturally. It must be especially difficult here if so.
no subject
[ Maybe a LITTLE bit but he's not just going to ACCEPT someone's CONDOLENCES. ]
And yourself? Is it a relief, to be free of that burden?
no subject
no subject
[ Binghe does not find this position sympathetic, but it is reassuring. It doesn't matter if Sebastian would make a better housewife than him practically speaking if his heart wasn't in it the same way! This guy definitely wouldn't appreciate his Shizun.
Still, though... ]
I wonder, would you be willing to share some of your expertise?
no subject
Why, of course. I quite enjoy teaching, as a matter of fact, but I am a strict teacher! [ he means sadistic ] What areas in particular were you interested in?
no subject
Oh, and assassination, too. I wanted to ask about that... Did you usually carry it out with your master's knowledge, or was there any need to keep it from him?
no subject
[ And without missing a beat at all, he switches to the topic of assassinations like it's just as inane as accounting and cooking... ]
The young master essentially knew, but I was not to wake him if they were intruding at night... Though I do not think that is keeping it from him, exactly. He did not exactly care beyond knowing who sent any would be assassins, so I did not tell him of most of them as a result. It was a common enough occurrence.
no subject
Ah, but as for the rest of it, I'd be grateful to hear anything you can share. I have some experience managing a household, but never had formal responsibility for the finances, and I'm sure I could learn from someone with your experience. And I've spent a bit of time since I've been here learning about the local cuisine and experimenting with new ingredients, but while of course some principles are universal, the perspective of a capable chef from a different world to my own is bound to be illuminating! Even in one town one will find many different techniques, after all.
no subject
[ because he was, you know, thirteen... ]
But to the matter of cooking, I would be happy to share my knowledge. Perhaps I may learn a recipe or two from you as well! I had not considered it, but surely cuisine across worlds must have variations even more than from region to region...
