The place we stand for

[Chronicron]

Kessereya had every right to be wary of the place they were at. Yet, fleeing wasn't the only option she could propose. Hearing all other options brought up to the table, she knew where the discussion would go.

"If you desire to direct their attention elsewhere, there is no need to invest all of our strength into infiltrating and subsuming the higher echelons of humanity. What might be prudent is to play around mankind's superstition. Spread the rumors of what they would otherwise call "paranormal activities" around the voids, far enough from our home, yet closer to their hives. Such shall attract the attention of their main powers. No doubt the Banishers will be interested in said rumors as well. Perhaps, it is better to switch their attention to our deranged kin. Make it look like it is their doing, not ours.

Shall the rumors make two conflicting groups collide, our issues will become less detrimental. Shall the groups become too suspicious of our movements, we could attract their attention to a void that isn't too far from us. And just as they are in a process of investigating it, they will hear of another, much troublesome event occurring on the exact opposite side of the voids.

We should convince them that the place we use as a major distraction is of high value for us. We should protect it as we would protect our home. Such will convince them that we only use the place around us and its surrounding voids as a an elaborate ruse."

Kessereya shifted the hologram to something more useful for their current discussion. Forming small vortexes located franticly all over the table's surface, they soon started colliding into spheres, linking to each other, like a demonstration of molecular connections. The way the spheres were located and linked resembled the map of the Sirius Sector, with spheres representing systems, each outlined correspondingly to their respectful regions.

"Securing a more desolate place as a home for us, a place that would not be between the Hives, on the other hand, should be a bother of one of ours." Kessereya continued, turning her head towards Harbinger. "The desire behind my proposal is not running away or forfeiting everything. It is to find a more remote place, suitable for our growth, whereas this place would be used as our first vanguard. And given our current strength, outsmarting this war is the only viable option for us."

Her attention would switch to whoever would speak next. Kessereya remained adamant about one thing - using this place as a way to grow would be compromising for Vagramts. Perhaps, the time of her disembarking on a long journey was coming near.
