Then spill it.

@Etcetera

Yes, yes, of course. No delays here. They did retrieve a soul from the Surgespace storm, after all.

<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

*Laughs* That’s what friends are for, Vi! Well, what would you like to do right now?

@Balance

I guess I should go see people... Right?

[GalaxyRaider]

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

Very good. I heard from Vex that the loss of Violet was making your job difficult—as, of course, it would. It is a boon that in this urgent time your morale has been boosted.

@whizzball1

Losing a loved one nearly in line with the time you’re expected to lead makes leadership very difficult, yes. Now I have no bother of the sort anymore, and even more morivation to defend what’s ours.

@Disdain

I'm going to slug you.

Keep them; I'm loaded with comedy gold. Fifty more where that came from.

@Etcetera

*Holds my hands up in an “Alright, I won’t argue” manner*
Okay, okay. No need to tell me twice.

I mean, yeah. It was a cult.

@System

I hate cults. Almost as bad as some of the politicians I deal with daily.

*sighs*

Just another day at work, I suppose

@GalaxyRaider

That is a great spirit to have. Some of us shall have to train together soon in order to work together against Nemid and her minions. We must not experience such a devastating loss again.

Anyway, once you get this sorted out, I'll send you a portal or whatever to the place.

Zero: you arent going to like this part....

*opens up a screen, showing owned territories*

We are going to need to join forces with a lot of people. And by that.... I mean combine our owned territories. If we can gain a major foothold, that will entice Dark Dynamo to come to us. As we do this, we should work on increasing our own abilities and strengths. As we gather territories, we will encounter resistance from opposing parties. We cnanot let them interfere with our process. This Balkan system.... it only just begun, yet it reeks of death and despair to come. Betrayal will be common. Even the best of friends will be at each others throats for territories.

@souleaterfan320

I get you. Full disclosure, my first and utmost priority is working for my family. That means their interests, and their safety. So an alliance with me is an alliance with the IA and the Waternaux household.

@souleaterfan320

I could go on all day. But for now, Fairy Yellow, you leave the chamber and we can figure out what happened to you later. Shinji, which body do you want?

@Etcetera

*Continues quickly* There was no direct indicator that the soul was Violet’s. Their rebuilt her organic body and housed her soul in it... but unfortunately, her body dissolved promptly. Alas and alack.

S-sure.

@Etcetera

*Sags; speaks a little strained* Okay! Okay. I should have realised this was a sensitive subject. Lesson successfully learned. Her soul remained intact, but it was apparently suffused with Surgespace, so there was a heated argument full of sharp tongues and backstabs and only nice words and they decided that Spirit would make her a artificial body by the same method he made mine. There was a light show, everything worked out, and now she is alive and well. Hurrah and hullah!

*Sits back and sighs*
Do you get some kind of kick out of that?

@whizzball1

Train as much as you feel necessary, my friend. I will be doing no such thing. I’ve trained myself nearly all my life, and I should say that, gauging Nemid’s strength tells me that no amount of playing power catch up will get us there. We need a plan. We need to trick Nemid into a situation that massively tips the scale in our favor to the point that it’s, only then, possibly even. I’ve been working with some of the best minds on how to accomplish this, but there is still a lot of work to be done, and many phone calls to be made.
*Turns to Violet*
I know you hate my fighting spirit, but trust me on this. This isn’t a matter that any one person or group can handle. All of Existence might need to band together to fend off a threat greater than the sum of its parts, and I don’t intend to let your fate be repeated.
*Gives her one more hug*
I’ll talk with you again very soon, but I have to go. We are officially on the clock with this one.

@GalaxyRaider

*Slowly nods*
It kills me to admit you’re right, but... I think I get the picture for this one...

@Etcetera

I was on a roll with the joke, you see, and inanimate objects such as myself are very bad at the whole “self-stopping” thing. Saying the word “discourteous” clearly is not enough for me not to be discourteous; perhaps I’ll say the word seven to twenty times next time.

I’ll hold you to that.
