*Via a telepathic communication tool* We should surround him in three points. I will incite him further. Brandish no weapons until he makes an aggressive action.

Fear not. We will emerge victorious.

@Nimda

*The word "victorious" drifts through the audience; I cause it to take in the people's minds as a rallying cry, and the chant of "Victorious" begins to sound through the stadium*

"He can't control his own stadium. How did these people get in here?"

<Snipped quote by Meta>

You try to lead this flock astray. And your next resort will be violence!

@Nimda

"Can he even protect us if they attack? If he's really powerful, he should take action."

First they destroy the word and now they claim to be of light. In fact, there are three prophets of darkness with us today!
*The crowd grows more restless*

@Nimda

*Sends whispers through the crowd that seem to each person to come from their neighbours* We believe him because we think he's strong, but why does he need scriptures to prove it? *Other whispers drift through the crowd* If he's so strong, why couldn't he protect his own word?

*Rises from the center of the stage in the stadium*
Thank you for your patience! I assure you that your dedication will not go unrewarded. But before we begin, the reading of a passage from the word.
*Opens a large book*
Fear not and be vigilant! Trust in the miracle worker, but be wise as a fox. For the dark prophets disguise themselves as sons and daughters of light.
*Closes the book*
Today you will truly see why we were warned.

@Nimda

*When you close the book, a gust of wind causes one side of the sheets of paper in the book to angle in comparison to the other side, and when they connect, they slice into each other, and all the pages in the book are ripped in half, though they remain connected to the binding*

*whispers*
Why are you here?

@Zeal

*Whispers back* The Legend said Vector gained unexpected power. Because we don't know his abilities, The Legend decided to send another operative.

The actions we take can't be attributed to fortune. That's something we're able to control ourselves.

@Meta

Which is why the blows are so light. Is momentary pain such a wrong? Will our actions with Vector not cause instability, riots, and death in this planet? Take a hard line somewhere.

*Wavers back and forth*
They didn't do anything wrong.

@Meta

But good and bad fortune happen to them all the same, regardless of whether we or Vector are here. What is one blow, lightly taken, on the scale of decades? Answer if you wish.

<Snipped quote by Efficacy>

We're not going to hurt anyone. That's out of bounds.

@Meta

I can see that, since none of the people on this planet are dead. *Grins* Great job holding Gajeel back! *Laughs and returns to solemnity* They will be winding, but non-permanently damaging blows, intended to apparently incapacitate, to show that Vector cannot protect his greatest supporters.
