[quote=@6slyboy6] [@ADamnFiddle] Maria or Grian comes first? Cause I'd think that the options of Grian defending himself and Maria questioning him are both plausible. And because Alchemist is hellbent on making sure Grian is fucked I guess I cannot really say anything lol [/quote] Well if you would prefer to post before i, that isn't something I would mind. Chances are at this point though Maria will take both of them into custody for questioning. Or at least attempt to. Considering there have yet to be any crimes committed thus-far that can be proven on either side, chances are both will be allowed to walk free. Unless Grian had committed some sort of acts within the city prior and has yet to see his sentences throughout. Maria is someone who believes in justice, but in the sort of justice that is quantifiable through the laws. Maria's primary goal is to obtain information from Cheiko regarding her similar appearance of clothing to the other lost individual, Ryan. [quote=@Heckno12] [@6slyboy6][@Rune_Alchemist] On the moral side, Chieko would be a bit easier to believe in this situation. Maria meeting Ryan before this also means that she can tell that Chieko isn't lying about suddenly appearing in the world. [/quote] Maria will probably ask both for their stories. It isn't like either of them are lying. Just a few of them are leaving out a little bit of key details. [quote=@Rune_Alchemist] I mean. I personally don't care either way, but Chieko's just stating the truth as she believes it to be. And as someone who believes the truth/law/justice trumps anything else, she believes she's in the right...so Chieko is simply staying true to her character by defending herself when she thinks Grian is in the wrong here. [/quote] Yeah, Maria is similar to that, but her style of justice is bound to her duty; she believes the law itself will trump all others in its wake, and those who fall and those who falter must pay the price. But isn't exactly one to not make exception to what she believes to be right at a core perspective.
