[Kenoma] Discussion

( 🟣 - Emet, 🔵 - 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 we’ll 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.

[ It’s 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 Aions may develop new abilities at any time, however; intel from the mission in Venera and Godsblood may very well be outdated by now, so do not assume anything we go over in this address as the extent of what they can do.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, you’ve unfortunately arrived at a tumultuous time on Horos. If this is all too much for any reason, that’s 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.

[ How...awful. ]

Ah, yes.

Well, property damage is bound to happen. Might as well be for our cause.
regressor: (DARK)

[personal profile] regressor 2022-08-12 04:05 am (UTC)(link)
People usually care a bit more about the collateral damage, but... Yes.

The stakes are... very high.
zauneyete: (Snerk)

[personal profile] zauneyete 2022-08-12 04:17 am (UTC)(link)
People usually do.

[ But... Silco doesn't care about these people. If it's not Zaun, he doesn't give a crap, and you don't want to see what he does to a city he cares about. ]

I think you'll find that the Regent favors...effort, more than anything else.

The more you give to the cause, no matter the price, I doubt they'll be too displeased.

[ He says, being a precious little meow meow. ]
regressor: (DECISION)

[personal profile] regressor 2022-08-12 04:23 am (UTC)(link)
[People. Yes. People who have the emotional capacity for it. The morals. The sensitivity.

But she hasn't had that since the Kenoma brought her powers back.]


Effort? Not success?
zauneyete: (Shifts Eyes right)

[personal profile] zauneyete 2022-08-12 04:41 am (UTC)(link)
Success is best, of course.

[ It's said, with the impression of a shrug. ]

However, you'll find by fighting the Pleroma, each success is hard won. Coordinated even accidentally sometimes.

Thus far, the Regent has not sought to punish those who are at the very least not disregarding their wishes. Hopefully the bar will rise with time.

So they’re powerful themselves. I suppose that makes sense.

[She’ll pay close attention to the notes other Kenoma are leaving… it’s only sensible.

What he implies, though-]


… people have disagreed?
zauneyete: (What were the terms and conditions)

[personal profile] zauneyete 2022-08-13 04:58 am (UTC)(link)
[ A pause.

Oops.
]

Oh, I wouldn't know anything about that. You'll have to ask about, and see if you can find any who would admit it.
regressor: (DOWNCAST)

[personal profile] regressor 2022-08-13 06:48 pm (UTC)(link)
[... Hmm.]

If I have to ask around hoping someone would "admit" it... It sounds like something I'm not supposed to ask about.

[And surely a nice senior Kenoma would warn her if that was the case...]
zauneyete: (Shifts Eyes right)

[personal profile] zauneyete 2022-08-14 03:01 am (UTC)(link)
Hm, well, it's certainly not encouraged.

I'm sure you'll find your own way to discover who is, and isn't trustworthy about Achamoth, with time.
regressor: (TURNAROUND)

[personal profile] regressor 2022-08-14 03:50 am (UTC)(link)
My own way...

[How decidedly unhelpful.]

I see. Thank you.
zauneyete: (Shifts Eyes right)

[personal profile] zauneyete 2022-08-14 11:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh of course. You're welcome. I'm nothing if not...informative, when it's needed.

[ No, he isn't. ]
