The Arch Storm

[Akura]

One mind, one goal, one purpose...

Amy Masako

The Natures Last Hope were met with peace in Orkney.

Masako: Konnichiwa, Miss Hart
Masako: We are pleased that you decided to show
[NLH]-Sequoia.Hart: Masako-san. *Sequoia nodded.* I see that you decided not to come alone. Uh. As I said, I'm not that paranoid.
[NLH]-Sequoia.Hart: Good to see you. Seems that you have something to tell me if you suggested something like... this meeting.
[NLH]Ambrosio.Garcia: Greetings to you.
[NLH]-Ghastly.Cypress: Good evening, I guess.
Masako: It seems you've offered some of your facilities to a group known as the Order
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: *Mason pops his head out of the back and whispers to Hikari* Sorry sweety. I don't think they'd trust me. So I'm just gunna
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: Mason: keep quiet. *He goes back into the back of the ship*
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: Hikari: Hai...its ok.
[NLH]-Sequoia.Hart: It happened indeed. I won't explain the details of our work with the Order, but your information is somehow correct.
Masako: An unfortunate group, but in observing your group, we've noticed your lack of xenophobia towards that which you don't understand
Masako: Instead, you've shown a keen curiosity towards our kind
[NLH]Ambrosio.Garcia: We're not that paranoid like the others.
[NLH]-Ghastly.Cypress: Your kind ? You mean Kusari or ?
[NLH]Ambrosio.Garcia: We'd like to get know what we see.
Masako: Indeed, it is more than we can say for the rest of humanity
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: *Mason whispers* Err..sounds like they're going on about us not understanding again. I've had that so much with Spirits and
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: Mason: Outcasts already.
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: Hikari: Shh
[NLH]-Sequoia.Hart: Xenophobia... *Sequoia nodded.* I see. I noticed that fanciful being nearby *She motions to Scorpion.* Let's say that...
Masako: Your compassion and curiosity are refreshing
[NLH]-Sequoia.Hart: taking something you don't understand as your natural enemy is a reather foolish approach.
Masako: This is a promising trait
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: Hikari: You're the one who keeps the Spirits safe in Tau space.. You know why they fight. Why don't you talk to them?
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: Mason: Nah...Aaron should've been here for that
Masako: It is pointless for us to conflict, do you not agree?
[NLH]Ambrosio.Garcia: I think we do agree.
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: Hikari: True.. *She looks at Masako* Hai
[NLH]-Sequoia.Hart: That's it.
[NLH]-Ghastly.Cypress: I don't see why we should conflict.
Masako: Infact, there is much you can offer us
Masako: And we can offer you in return
[NLH]Ambrosio.Garcia: *looks around* This is interesting.
Masako: Knowledge, for starters
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: *Mason steps in again* Can I listen Masako-sama? *He turns to Hikari* It is 'sama' right?
[NLH]Ambrosio.Garcia: About what?
[NLH]-Sequoia.Hart: Sounds promising.
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: Hikari: Hai.
Masako: In addition, we've noticed a steady pattern of Gaian Wildlife smugglers about
Aaron.Talidiga: Uh.
Aaron.Talidiga: Odd place for a meeting.
Masako: Perhaps it would be better if they were to remain in Edinburgh, instead of being amusements for the rich
[NLH]-Ghastly.Cypress: Uh. Hello ? What are you doing here ?
[NLH]-Sequoia.Hart: *Sequoia coughs.*
Aaron.Talidiga: Me...?
[NLH]-Ghastly.Cypress: Yes.
[NLH]Ambrosio.Garcia: What the..
Aaron.Talidiga: Looking around. If it's an issue, I can look around somewhere else.
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: Mason: Oh boy..
Aaron.Talidiga: But uh.
Aaron.Talidiga: I found something interesting.
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: Hikari: Shh Mason..
Masako: If this Eagle is bothering you, it would only take one word for it to disappear
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: Hikari: No Masako-sama..
Aaron.Talidiga: Never seen that design before.
Masako: If you insist
[NLH]Ambrosio.Garcia: I advise you to leave Mr. Talidiga.
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: Hikari: Violence isn't always the answer..
[NLH]-Ghastly.Cypress: Violence is sometimes an option, but not now.
Aaron.Talidiga: Err, problem...?
[NLH]Ambrosio.Garcia: This ain't your business.
Masako: It would be most wise for you to vacate the area, Mr Talidiga
[NLH]-Ghastly.Cypress: Yes, problem. You're attending to a meeting you were not invited to.
Aaron.Talidiga: Mmmhmm...
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: Hikari: Arigato Aaron-san!
Masako: Anyway, for now, all we can offer you is words, and the promise that you will not be harmed by our kind
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: *Hikari sighs*
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: *Hikari looks and pays attention to Masako*
[NLH]-Ghastly.Cypress: Let us clearly define what "your kind" is.
[NLH]Ambrosio.Garcia: Yeah. Some clarification is needed here.
Masako: You would refer to us as the "Slomon K'Hara" or "Nomads"
[NLH]-Sequoia.Hart: So approximately the same that we can do - with looking forward for something, with giving each other a hand...
[NLH]-Ghastly.Cypress: Uh-hu.
Masako: To us, our name isn't possible in words
[NLH]-Sequoia.Hart: In some common interests.
Masako: In short, yes
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: Mason: I call 'em "The Touched." Kinda stupid but lets me remember who they are. *Mason smirks*
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: Hikari: Mason...
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: Mason: Right...right..
Ahriman: ***it is irrelevant. names. shortcuts. labels. simplified and hollow***
[NLH]Ambrosio.Garcia: Woah.
[NLH]-Sequoia.Hart: You, probably, know much more of us then the others. *Sequoia coughs* At least, as I understand, you know about out past...
[NLH]Ambrosio.Garcia: Heard that, guys?
[NLH]-Sequoia.Hart: experience with... Eh, the ones like you.
Fujiwara.Michiyo.: What one knows, all know.
Masako: It's not a secret
[NLH]-Sequoia.Hart: *Sequoia nodded.* Right.
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: Mason: Sorry Spirit...
Masako: You need not use the words of the Outcasts
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: Mason: Eh.. Yeah. Well still. I tend to agree with them. Spirits holding infinite amounts of Knowledge that simple minds
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: Mason: can't comprehend
Masako: If you prefer this term, you may use it
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: Mason: Thank you.. But then I ask
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: Mason: What would you prefer?
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: *Hikari whispers to Mason* I'm going to try the dress on.
Fujiwara.Michiyo.: Titles hold no real meaning
Fujiwara.Michiyo.: What we are is dependent on the beholder
Masako: The note you obtained, Miss Hart, also came with codes to contact us again
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: *Mason whispers back* Right right...wait. Can I come?!
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: Hikari: Not here..
Masako: If there is something you desire to obtain, know or do, do not hesitate to contact us
Fujiwara.Michiyo.: The real question is...what do -you- call us?
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: Mason: Good point..
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: *Mason turns his attention back to Masako*
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: Mason: Hmm... Lables, titles.. are irrelevant..
[NLH]-Sequoia.Hart: And I will make a use of them for sure. The past 'experience' with you gave me more, but left more questions as it usually..
[NLH]-Sequoia.Hart: does. And I'm not the only one.
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: *Mason thinks*
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: Mason: I like that question.. You all think as one don't you?
Masako: Correct
Masako: For now, we will depart
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: Mason: Hmm..
Masako: Farewell
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: Mason: Can we talk again soon?
[NLH]-Ghastly.Cypress: Good bye, I guess.
[NLH]Ambrosio.Garcia: Farewell to you.
Fujiwara.Michiyo.: Fly well
[NLH]-Sequoia.Hart: I'm sure we will meet again.
[NLH]Ambrosio.Garcia: I hope we'll meet again.
[NLH]-Sequoia.Hart: Good luck.
Daidaiiro: See you.
[NLH]-Nature's.Light: Mason: Take care

Conflict avoided is a most wise path.
