[PLEROMA] | I heard a rumor...
[ The communion is clear, practiced, and clipped. Business-like. ]
We have quite a few new arrivals, so... Welcome to the Pleroma. I am sure we will all have the opportunity to introduce ourselves to you, but it's often polite to introduce oneself, isn't it? My name is Akua Sahelian, and I speak to you now of what I wish were a warm welcome, but instead, of serious tidings.
I do not know how many of you have been introduced to the wider group, or how much information you've been presented, so allow me to give you all a basics, hm?
If you can hear this, you have accepted the Pleroma. You may have already met one, or many of them, but regardless if you met them before -- we oppose the Kenoma -- perhaps not the individuals, but the... force of kenoma itself. Pleroma and Kenoma are no mere forces of Good and Evil -- The Kenoma would destroy this world -- and all worlds -- to rebirth a world of their own making from the ashes. If you have joined with us, then you have found perhaps something to save here -- or perhaps you believe that your world is still out there. Some do, but I will not promise that which I cannot see with my own eyes. Whatever has brought you to us, I'm afraid that I cannot promise an easy fight -- or an easy existence here. Even now, the Kenoma have captured two of our own, and I have no doubt that they will come out with an experience that only a True Villain by the name of the Regent could craft. [ In communion, it sounds like a Title, a Name. ]
We will have to rescue them, and though I wish I could say that only those that are willing to fight should come, the truth of it is that we must collectively join together. There is no choice, and we will need every willing person to join in, to save our allies. If you have experienced combat before -- of any sort -- your experience will be more than welcome. If you do not, please reach out to one us, and we will find a place for you. We all have...grand and great talents, and we'll need every single one, to find victory when our allies are eventually retrieved. You will be needed, no matter what your experience was before you arrived, you will be able to find some use of your unique talents. Please, if you are new, speak up, tell us about yourselves, and ask your questions. I'm sure someone will answer it. Even the smallest of talents, can mean the difference between losing more of our allies an assets, or victory.
I cannot provide details at this time -- no plans have been set -- but I will tell you to be ready.
Speaking of being ready, however... I must turn a part of our discussion to something just as serious, but in a different vein. I think it clear, that we will have to continue to fight those who have signed on to the Kenoma, and while it's an inevitability, particularly in these times -- we need to assess our enemies. We will want to share the names, the abilities, and the demeanors of our enemies, those in the Kenoma who may be a threat, those who would be weak to physical threat, or...
[ A pause, then. ]
I was...dissipated recently. As I regrew, I... knew something. [ Her voice now almost sounds...authoritative. Like she is Speaking something of great import, the communion gives her words an emphasis that she can only imagine, as it would not work in person. ]
While no Sovereign, they are sovereign in this land, and though their plans have been thwarted in some small ways, they have been given a gift. The gift of knowing the true hearts of their followers, one way or the other. They have no use for the frail and the convictionless, after all. Venera and Godsblood are not the only ones that face culling, as the light of the Sovereign fades.
I believe... there may be individuals within the kenoma that have less conviction than others. They may be willing to help, or even defect, although we will be racing against the Regent's own touch. We may wish to seek them out, and free them from the Kenoma, they may come willingly, but they may also come by force. If you have spoken to those who lack conviction for their Sect, please, share that as well. It may be invaluable. If we know who lacks the resolve to stay with them, we can then pursue them, convince them, or bring them to our bases, to be convinced. I know some may find that unpleasant work -- but... Well, let's just say occasionally, capturing your enemy and teaching them of your perspective works.
I'd know.
[ A pause, before: ] Well, now. Please chime in, I shouldn't do all of the talking.

[ BUT..... ]
But he never went for a vital spot despite having openings. And I thought I saw the smallest change in his expression when I tried to reason with him.
no subject
[EASY! PEASY!]
no subject
no subject
Sure, but we're not gonna talk to him during the raid, right? We're just gonna get in and get... [uhhhhh what were their names] the prisoners. So if he gets in the way and hesitates then -- blam! Dead.
[it's so easy like 1 2 3]
no subject
'Blam'??????????????
Seems like he's speechless. He needs to recover a moment before he says anything else.]
So. You... You have a gun, then...?
[He's not sure how else to react to what she just said. What the fuck,]
no subject
STAB CAESARKILL KAEYA, RYU?]No. I just said that for dramatic effect.
Do we even have guns here? I thought this was a swords and magic only type of genre.
no subject
I... No, at least I haven't... Seen any guns here? [thank goodness.] Save for the one Detective Kiramman is able to summon, I suppose...
no subject
[damb, eustace is somewhere with his gun soulmate... anyway, back to sebastian-kaeya]
Anyway, this Kaebastian guy, [it's kaeya...] you really want to save him?
[hsy just assuming this help]
1/2
H... Huh?
[He doesn't remember saying that?? He doesn't even remember thinking that, at least not in those exact words.]
2/2
I... I suppose so? I'd be pleased to help any Kenoma turn from the Regent, if I'm able. But... Yes, I suppose you could say it's a little bit personal, in his case.
no subject
[👀]
Like -- you saw something in him no one else has, [dokja also saw it] and now you feel like it's your duty to bring him into the light, save his soul?

[ Killing people is fine, yes. ]
no subject
He'll definitely try to kill you though. You know, since he messed up before.
[no shade bc hsy would also kill someone she failed to kill before. it's just embarrassing??]
no subject
It'll be fine. It's not like he'll be the first to try.
[ Not the first to succeed either, should it happen. ]
no subject
there is a spike of emotion here, like something akin to murderous intent.]
Are you really saying that right now?
no subject
Sorry.
[ It's just become a habit of his to say stupid shit. ]
no subject
[BINCH YOU LEFT FOR A WEEK AND YJH BROKE UP WITH HER!!! SHE'S SO MAD!!]
no subject
no subject
[There's a little waver of uncertainty before he continues; he's worried he might be taking his speculation too far, but...]
...It seemed like he was trying to provoke me into putting up a better fight. Like, like he was hoping that I would be able to prevent him from going through with the deed. I know that probably sounds quite ludicrous, but...
no subject
Nothing ludicrous about it. You were the one there. You saw what you saw.
[ Even if it does turn out to be a stretch. Dokja had seen for himself a Kenoma who had gone against the wishes of the Regent, so if there are others potentially like that... ]
Every bit of information helps.
no subject
He's seriously touched by the show of confidence.]
Th... Thank you! Y-yes, I agree! I'm not so delusional as to say that I think all of them can be reasoned with, but... It's useful information to have either way!
no subject
That's right. After all, it's something I'll be keeping in mind if I ever run into him again.
[ Which hopefully he won't have to any time soon... He can still feel his many injuries. ]
no subject
If you do, I hope it proves useful... But I trust you to use your best judgement on that.
no subject
You certainly can.
[ Why does that feel so ominous. ]
