[color=C48BD3][b]"I see. You would have a valid point, if I hadn't overheard two of your companions already. One mentioned Satoru spying on an elder and child, and the prospects of stealing from them,"[/b][/color] Eula said, before pointing at the two bandits she'd overheard. If she had an audio playback function, she could really frighten them by outright speaking their own words back to them. But, she'd have no idea who Satoru was without having overheard someone speak. [color=C48BD3][b]"Plus, I was sent here due to you stealing from another person. It is only from their wish that you not be harmed that I haven't attacked and simply taken what was stolen,"[/b][/color] Eula said, before her stony expression softened a touch. [color=C48BD3][b]"...Please, respect that person's kindness. I do not intend to take everything that you have stolen. While I know that I should bring you all to face judgement, the economic and social circumstances make your actions...understandable,"[/b][/color] the automaton said, remembering another flash of her missing memory. [i]"Hm? Eliminate them? But...I mean, if we were hungry, we'd be stealing too, right? We're automatons, so we can go a lot longer and just live off of lightning. You're too serious sometimes, Eula."[/i] [color=C48BD3][b]"...But, if you do wish to continue plundering, I would insist that you do not target this island's people. There are invaders that have ruined your's and many other's lives. The Varjans are a threat to everyone, bandit, civilian, yokai, human...it doesn't matter."[/b][/color] Starting to walk towards the center of the camp, Eula would add: [color=C48BD3][b]"In the end, if the Varjans win, your hunger will be whetted with steel, instead of understanding."[/b][/color]
