Will one additional contestant cause much more suffering than already exists? It’s hard to say.

@Legend

You should read some history books with this guy in them. I’m concerned… But at least we can tell people about him now. A doyen of the modern age could probably deal with him.

Anyone who participates in the game knows what they've signed up for.

It's difficult to have much sympathy.

@Legend

And people who didn't ask for it don't feel any consequence? Those are the ones to feel sorry for.

Perhaps. It may reduce to a zero-sum game in the end.

@Legend

Judging by the kind of guy he is? I'm not so sure.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

Do you think so?

@Legend

Well if he gets involved in the war stuff, that's just more people that are going to be killed in battle.

@Legend

... That might have been a worse outcome.

A compelling argument. Allow me to say firstly that I do enjoy the thrill of the hunt as well and that is a motivator. That said, a bank of information as you describe is only useful in its fullest capacity if they are unwaveringly cooperative. Would she be willing to answer any and every question I have, with a pledge to honesty? Hmm?

@Inimical

I…

This time. I have a few reasons. One, the Ilouro were supposed to be extinct, so either someone brought them back like me or they’ve been keeping secrets. I want to see if any of those secrets are useful ones. Two, and related, not many people get to say they went toe to toe with a mythical creature. And third, her head would make a cute little mount on my wall. Just to the right of the television, I think, next to the lizard fella. I hope no one touched any of that after all these years.

You two're more than welcome to leave. Send more with the elements flowing through them in your stead if you will.

@Inimical

Is this the first time I've been directly threatened by a historical figure? I think so.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend>

I'm not testing strength mainly, just loosening up a bit. Spreading the wings. Heck, if she survives long enough, there won't be a need to kill her at all. I do have much to do after all.

@Inimical

And you're not going to let me decline the offer?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend>

I did not fear the possibility. But I knew it was not in the cards, and you would have too if you were aware of the finer details of the time.

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

A few steps beyond. I want you to fight back with every fiber of your being, not an ounce of effort wasted. So I intend to kill you. That’s motivation enough, I would presume?
