[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.

the way she talks makes him think she's got a cyanide pill in her molar or something - hopefully, she doesn't, because he's pretty sure she'd be in for an unfortunate surprise when she revives and the Kenoma have her shard, but he's not going to press the issue. ]
It's the Kenoma capital, basically. They're supposed to have way more advanced technology than we have here... or maybe it's more advanced magic. I don't know. Apparently, they've got giant spiders.
[ thanks misa ]
no subject
Well. At least dinosaurs are cooler than giant spiders.
[achamoth might be the cool city of MAGIC but dinosaurs are still better, damb. unfortunately, hsy can only see that singular benefit. why can't they have advanced tech/magic....]
Maybe I can bring some back.
[she means the tech, not the spiders.... or does she?]
no subject
[ based on context clues he is assuming she means the giant spiders. ]
no subject
[i can't believe this miscommunication]
no subject
[ giant trees, giant lizards!! giant problems more like!! ]

[in dokja's room, no]

[ make sure to adopt, don't shop ]
no subject
[that feels IRRESPONSIBLE of them....]
no subject
[ he also thinks it's stupid... you're valid, han sooyoung. ]
no subject
It really just sounds like an excuse to party forever.
[which like, valid? but also leave everyone else out of it?]
no subject
I don't know... I don't think most of 'em are that different from us. It all comes down to whether or not you believe that our worlds are gone. If you think you can't go back, then siding with the Kenoma makes sense. The Regent's the only guy we know that can start fixing things. Allegedly.
[ Pleroma hasn't done anything to convince Johnny otherwise - he's simply clinging desperately to the unfounded hope that his world is still there. That the Corpse still exists, and Gyro is still alive. ]
no subject
Sure, but does the Regent have to be so... [can she mind gesture in this communion mindscape? she will mind gesture.] Like remaking the world is one thing, but the sludge thing is so... freaky.
[and also sussy, but also freaky]
Can't they fix things without feeding us weird shit?
no subject
No, I'm with you there. The Regent is a bad egg. I think they're the issue here, not the Kenoma. [ a pause. ] ... Just my opinion.
[ please don't exile him from Greentruth. ]
no subject
no there's a surge of agreement from Sooyoung, even if she was just suggesting "murder" earlier for some of the Kenoma. It's not personal for her!!!!]
They're probably the only person [or GOD????] in this world that actually knows what's going on. Which makes the Kenoma just as blind as the rest of us.
no subject
[ however, the world has never made any sense, as far as he can tell, so this is to be expected. ]
We figure out what he knows if we can, then we kill him - that's my plan.
