kenoma [backdated to firaseri 17th]

[Around dawn on the day of the prisoners’ scheduled burning, a Kenoma-wide ping goes out to both the early risers and to those who might still be in bed. To those who are light sleepers and might be woken up by a communion notification, well… sorry about that. At least the information is pertinent to the day’s activities. Liem’s crisp, businesslike voice can be heard once the message is accessed.]

Good morning, everyone. I have news relating to the conflict we’re expecting to see today:

As we’re expecting to contest the Pleroma’s efforts to traverse the city, I’ve been organizing the distribution of supplies throughout Achamoth, in support of our efforts. Should you need replacement weapons or ammunition, medical supplies, or even just drinkable water, you can visit any of these locations rather than needing to fall back to the Citadel itself.

[An image of a map appears vividly over the communion, marked with numbered points throughout the city. Accompanying this image is a list that associates every number with a more detailed location, such as “Our Dark Regent’s Church of the Exalted Dissolution: side entrance” or “7th Street Guard Station: main entrance.” A large number of the entries on the list appear to be churches.

There is also a short list of items outlining what can be found at each supply point, including quivers of both arrows and crossbow bolts, various smaller handheld weapons, spare bowstrings, bottled water, and bandages and salves to stop bleeding.
]

If you would benefit from access to items that are not already on this list, please alert me right away. I will be overseeing the distribution of supplies throughout the morning, so I will do my best to ensure that any last-minute additions are included.

[what she needs the most can’t really be placed in a supply drop, not without anticoagulant agents the likes of which don’t seem to exist in this world…

so she responds just for the sake of her reputation and the “relationship”, attempting to project what gratitude had felt like.]


Thank you, Mister Talbott. That’s a really good idea… and hopefully good hiding places. Not that I know if the Pleroma respect sanctity…

Oh… that sounds like a very bad idea, actually.

[It’s been difficult to replicate the laugh… but she tries for amusement. It actually would be ironic.]

One of the other seniors took me to a couple of the churches looking for one that fit me well…

I’m not sure the Pleroma would have a very good time with some of those constituents at all.

It seemed so. I mean, I prefer a quiet service myself with… not so much actual sacrifice involved, but…

[It was a passing thought- how many people might come from worlds that considered that sort of religious demonstration “normal”]

How much do you think they’re going to try and protect that. “Sympathy”. Some of what people shared before about their numbers was… colorful.

And I’m right in understanding that… they don’t have anyone quite like our Regent, do they? Uniting them?

[a hum]

That will be difficult for them… Choosing between the support of the people when even the people are divided.

[Godsblood, Venera, a variety of other cities with varying cultures and levels of obedience to Achamoth…

A pause, before she seems to realize it might be important to say-]


I’ve been doing my reading.

[Since he showed her the library.]

Well, you have a point. If they had someone comparable, we surely would have heard of them by now.

[Contractors were the only "type" of people she knew who had power and were fully, perfectly content with staying out of the spotlight.]

A lot of answers, mmm... Maybe less about aions from aions, admittedly, but. I suppose I can ask the Kenoma about those.

... Well, that's an understatement, I think but. Mmm. Maybe to be expected.

[This city seemed to worship the ground not only the aions, but especially the Regent walked on. Propaganda should be a given.]

Most everyone's been really helpful so far, it's true.
