[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 Aions may develop new abilities at any time, however; intel from the mission in Venera and Godsblood may very well be outdated by now, so do not assume anything we go over in this address as the extent of what they can do.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.

[Yeah this just sounds more strange the longer she goes on, especially hearing herself "out loud". It's just a suggestion though, so she won't mind whether Bruno takes up the idea or not.]
You're more than welcome to make a communion call of your own to ask, once things are less hectic around Achamoth. We do lack information about Horos in general, and it would be interesting to explore further away from the cities of Venera and Godsblood. ['Fun' and 'dangerous' are also valid descriptors, she vaguely also considers tagging along. Checking out the jungles of Lohkimareen, huh? That sure does sound a lot more appealing than preparing for a Pleroma invasion... Alas.]
no subject
inspiration? ciel, are you suggesting he becomes a bard?]Oh, well. Sure. She'd be sneaky, manipulative, turning folks against one another for her own gain. I guess that counts as cunning? [ Although those are only traits that might be seen as "useful", awful though that may be. ] Only she's also greedy and thinks only of herself.
[ Less useful. It's an interesting idea, at least, if he could imagine a way to make it work. The thought that he can simply forge new gifts based on self-concept was still an odd one to wrap his mind around after having only one for the majority of his life. ]
Other cities... What are those like? Venera and Godsblood? Are they as big as this place?
no subject
...well, why NOT?]Someone mainly motivated by self interest is also easy to sway, if you know what they're after or can convince them what they want isn't worth the risk. There's a lot that could be of use there with a bit of imagination, I think!
[She thinks. She has no idea. But it's a start?
Oh, but back to more tangible things! She's happy to
TLDRexposition at him, being a tutorial infodumper had always come to her naturally.]Venera is to the west of here. A city of agriculture and arts, it's the breadbasket of Horos where most grains are growth. [The city's creativity has been largely stifled if not choked out thanks to the Regent's occupation, but that's a detail she doesn't need to tell Bruno straight up.] Godsblood is at the northwest corner of the continent, in a mountainous region right next to the sea. The seafood there is allegedly the best on Horos, it also has a focus on mining, smithing, and engineering. I think Achamoth has them both beat in number of population, but the atmosphere there are very different! [Thankfully, because do we really need every city to run off zealous death cult vibes, really?] Venera is peaceful and sleepy, Godsblood is outspoken and lively.
[Would be interesting to visit, wouldn't it?]
no subject
because he's the one madrigal who doesn't sing, ciel!]Next to the sea... [ Oh. ] I've never seen a sea in person before.
[ This means there's an immediate interest in Godsblood, which is unfortunate since it's the farthest away and likely the most dangerous to make a trip to. Solo, anyway. Then again, he probably shouldn't travel anywhere on his own. ]
Venera sounds nice, too. If it's a farming city, it, uh. Might feel more like home, if I'm gonna be honest here.
