Encypted message to Admiral Layne, Unity Prime, Michael Herbert Gilmour, MaehlHoldings and the other Leaders of the TRILAT(except Viggo)

All,

I sent Some of my men to aid Su Maehl, and they followed the energy bridge left by the assassins to Kyrpos. Right now, they have cornered a person of interest named Twain of the TNI. His ship, a merchant vessel he called it, was at the end of the energy bridge. When asked to come in for questioning, this Twain person became hostile and belligerent trying to start a fight.

I notified the Hive Queens, that I was only there to apprehend the people at the end, although Ar'yayHiveQueen Does not seem to believe me. I tried to reassure her that I was only there for the suspects, but have not heard back from her.

This has started to fall apart, and fall out of my control. I believe Twain is trying to start a fight to blame it on the TRILAT.
Unity Prime, you like talking, this might suit you to try and solve.

Admiral Yr, I did not invite Viggo because I do not understand what he was trying to accomplish with his actions, I leave it up to you if you wish to invite him to this conversation.

Ryuk

Dear Ryuk,

Thank you so very much for the assistance you offered me on this occasion. I do not know how to assist your men at this time. I'm new to the concept of planear travel and how it all works. I will request aid from my associates in the Free Systems. Please keep me abreast of this situation.

Admiral Layne Yr,
Ryuk is your man, and thus these missing troops of your command. I will not dare advise you how best to finalize this matter, nor offer suggestions as I know little of your tactics. However, I make myself available to you should you require assistance that I am able to provide. I will not be offended if I am not included in any tactical discussions regarding the rescue of these Sanguine Lords. Also, I'll have my peers contact this channel separately if they agree to assist.

All,
My primary request is to be given access to the Earther who calls himself Twain. I wish to know what he has lurking in his brain, and why he was assisting the Qual.

Yours most sincerely,
Su Maehl

Everyone,

Ar'yayHiveQueen, wow seems to be in control of the area that this is all taking place, is offering to help. She has suggested that an investigation team is sent, but I don't have one to do so. I figured with everyone here speaking about this situation, it would behoove us to bring her in and let you all figure out the course of action.

Ryuk

Greetings, I am Father Inido I have been invited here by Leftenent Ryuk to help get to the bottom of the situation. As the Leftenent was told I am going to have to see all the evidence that you have in this crime so we may be caught up. We also are sending a team to the island with your witness to question him to find out what he knows about the crime in question. You are free to send investigators to do the same, once we know the involvement of this individual we can better figure out the next step.
One thing that cannot be done is having Trilat forces running rampant on Kyrpos, they would most likely be attacked if they cross the boarder between us. So if you need anything on our side of the boarder we can attempt to find it for you.

Father,

You know what an Uthvelor is correct. Good. I have a team of the finest Uth Seers not employed by Azrael. They will simply see into the mind of the assassins and find out if Mr. Terranovsky was involved.

Twain Terranovsky, I remember him from a few years ago. He was a vicious fighter on the side of rebels known as the Border Freedom Force. An insurgent sniper if I recollect the one time I saw him.

So father we would be happy to have your assistance as long as the Uth Seers don't say your group was involved in the assassination attempt on Mr. Maehl.

Captain Axis, Captain Axis, I know you have an eyespy somewhere. Why don't you help this father get to the bottom of it.

I'd hate to have to send Brave Ulysses to eliminate Mr. Terranovsky, the Sanguine Lords and any other surprises waiting on Kyrpos.

Grand Admiral Layne Yr

**encrypted to Ryuk only: I have a fleet waiting to mobilize. Your goal is to have your Lords grab the suspect and escape. Bring him to serpent head if you catch him. It is on the border of the land of the Quall and Land of the Fire Spirits. **

Father Inido smiled warmly at Admiral Laybe Yr. "So lovely to meet you my good Admiral, I have heard much about you" Father Inido paused as if listening to something that no one else could hear. "Yes indeed I have heard much. Good, i indeed know all about Uthvelor many served as hosts to the various Hives, so we know about their unique abilities. Sadly this ability is genetic so it is not passed over to the Hive after the Larva matures, pity really as our Hive Mind could easily ease the overwhelming sensation of accessing the Stream of Consciousness negating the messy side effect of murder. I look forward to finding out if Mr Terranovsky had anything to do with the attack. I heard about some other attackers as well, I hear that someone came in there with Nightmare soldiers. Messy business that is, you should be careful you might have a rogue Kasanthian...or some Morgothians though I am not sure how they would have gotten there."

Father Inido pauses for a moment seemingly in thought. "Ah the infamous Captain Axis! I have heard quite a bit about the man. It would be fascinating to speak to the man, even more fascinating the idea of working with him.
As for my own involvement, I can honestly say that I took no part in any violence in the Free Systems in the last several years. Before I joined the Horned Dog I was on a quest to avenge my father's murder. After killing the man who killed him I turned to faith and have not committed any violence after that. Now I investigate crimes, and try to reduce violence not encourage it."

Father Inido smiled warmly again at the people gathered around, "oh, I almost forgot, the investigation team to question Mr. Terranovsky should be arriving there as we speak, in one of our Freighters." Inido pauses again listening "yes they are arriving at the island and are about to land. Your Sanguine Lords are free to listen to the questioning and you are free to volunteer any questions that you also would like to ask Mr. Terranovsky. However until the investigation is complete the man will not leave this island and you will not bring any further military units to the island. Some unarmed civilian investigators are welcome but no soldiers. A sizable amount of Quall N'Drone are approaching the island, they will form a perimeter around the island making sure that nothing interferes with the investigation."

Father Inido glanced at the faces of the people in the room and quickly added "no need to worry yourselves these Quall will not actually go on to the island, they are simply there in case they are needed. We don't know if anyone will come to try to silence the witness before he can give his testimony. If there is proof that Mr. Terranovsky played a direct role in the crime that happened then we shall contact the Free Systems official police who will then take him into custody, if there is no proof that he was involved in the attack he will be sent back home. I am sure there is nothing wrong with that"

Father Inido smiled again and bowed politely to those gathered, very calm collected and giving off a feeling of peace.

Slug head Priest,

Caught in the act. You must think us idiots. If your freighter even tries to land the attack will begin.
I hate parasites almost as much as I hate talking to minions. You are the minions of the same Quall and Horned Dog involved in this assassination attempt.

The Uth Seers have reported back. And their blame of you and yours has been resounding.

Slug Head Priest you are a liar and an accomplice to the assassination attempt on Su Maehl.
You Slug Head Priest are accused of the crime of bearing false witness, of lying to the TRILAT and of helping to cover up a conspiracy.

In addition the Island in question is not even own by your leaders Slug Head Priest. It is owned by the HiveQueen Council like the rest of Kyrpos. Your mistress has as little right to say she is handling laws as a prisoner might. If you try to land that freighter despite my direct warnings your people will die.

If you attempt to stop or hinder OUR investigation you will find that no stories about your past will make a difference. You serve a rogue Queen and that Rogue Queen is the master mind behind this plot. It's nice having Uthvelor around sometimes.


Now call back your hidden reinforcements before Brave Ulysses makes them and the Hive Queen Council regret your mommys little murder mission to an IR world.
An Uth Seer may not stand up in IR court but Twain has now become a star witness to your crimes.

We of the TRILAT are no longer hunting for a suspect, we a trying to save a witness to a horrible crime.

Your lying slug heads should have just been honest that you did it, then Twain wouldn't be the tug around boy.

Tell Aryay HiveQueen her plot is found out. And Su Margin has friends from across reality who will.punish you.

Grand Admiral Yr

OOC Layne would never allow a Horned Dog into her personal presence. And if this Father Inido came to any TRILAT location he would be taken into custody at this point. I only write this because Aryay added in her narrative that her Father was physically meeting with Yr. Aryay should clarify because I am happy to take this lying pacific slughead into custody for experiments. I place it in Aryays players hands because of two things. If they refuse to withdraw the Freighter than I will have Brave Ulysses be waiting (plan alpha max bravo).
And two if the Horned Dog priest was in my presence he's being taken into captivity and sent to Codename: Niflheim.
B4 anyone jumps yes I did pm admin Uth seers request and yes I am using info in above letter from that response.

(OOC yes i figured that the Admin PMed you about the Uth seers, no worries I fully expected you to. One thing however, you would not have seized the guy right away because you would have no idea that he was at all involved in anything, however after the Uth Seers reported to you then grabbing him is perfectly justified and expected)

Admiral Layne Yr, it was quite expected that you would fall back to insults and threats, it is well known that you do not posses the sophistication to talk calmly and rationally in most situations. Never has any of us ever expected Kasanthians to act honorably to diplomats, you can feel free to arrest me but if you do I will be totally cut off from the Hive mind and my Larva will kill itself to prevent any delving through torture. You would be much better off using me as a envoy then as a useless prisoner.

As to your childish name calling, I have never lied, I said that I was not involved in any crime against Su Maehl, that I had not committed violence in the Free Systems in years which is all true. Just because I have access to the Hive Mind doesn't' mean i am the same person as others who are connected to it. Others can preform actions while I do something else, it is the glory of not being one singular being spit into many many pieces. I never lied either as I do know know the person who did do the attack. You must be confused as to how a Hive Mind works, please speak to some members of the Unity, they do know know every single member of the connected there are billions of people who are in my Hive and I do not know them all. I would be happy to ask the Hive Mind if they can tell me the identity of those who attacked Su Maehl, though I cannot guarantee that I will be given that information. Did you command those Nightmares to attack Su Maehl's office? Perhaps you should be arrested for this crime as well (Father Inido smiles warmly)

As for the island in question, the idea of ownership seems to be odd to you. The Hive Queen council doesn't own the entire dimension of Kyrpos, also even if they did I highly doubt you asked their permission to be there. Ergo YOU have no right to be there regardless, if you want we can all wait here while you petition the Hive Queen council for permission to send in military units. The very fact that the Hive Queen Council respects my Queens decision to allow Garmen Fe to remain in Kyrpos shows that they do defer to my Queens Judgement despite the fact that she is rogue. So once again you display ignorance when you speak, I would think that a Grand Admiral would choose to think before she spoke but again with your reputation I am not surprised.

If your people attempt to stop the freighter there will be millions of Quall N'Drone exterminating Ryuk's Sanguine lords. So tell me what is the biggest loss? A small group of Horned Dogs who can be brought back to life within moments and a single Freighter or 5 Sanguine Lords? Tell me does our low opinion of your judgement tell me that you would waste your resources so readily? The Freighter will still land on the island as they have as much right to be there as Kasanthian forces do. Unless you have a document showing that the Hive Queen Council has given your people permission and is requesting me to leave. In fact a different Hive has even come to my aid currently, strange that a rogue would get help from a none rogue Queen.

Also you are the ones who have been threatening the life of Mr. Terranovsky, not us. I can guarantee you that he would choose to go with us over you without a single thought.

Oh, and another thing, Su Margin? You might want to get the name of the person you claim to be trying to avenge right. Besides his hands were taken, his life was never in danger, if the attackers wanted his life they would have taken it. I am sure that Su Maehl is happy to have so many demon loving friends such as you, perhaps you can send one of your demons to him, he might be able to give Mr. Maehl a contract to get new hands.

So, if you wish to actually act like an intelligent adult we can continue a civil conversation, however if you wish to keep acting like a whiny brat then you can have your people grab me and gain nothing as I just die and be resurrected somewhere else. We knew that you would use your Uth to see what happened. This is now your test, we will see what you are made of, are you a serious player who knows how to deal diplomatically with others or are you a fool child who throws temper tantrums whenever someone makes her upset. The choice of course is yours, just know that by grabbing me you are also destroying the word of your servant Ryuk who invited my here in good faith.

(Father Inido turned his head to Ryuk) So does your word mean nothing? You invited me here in good faith to talk, if you allow this offensive action to be taken then all will know that your word will be meaningless. I expect such foul play from Layne Yr but will it apply to you as well? The idea that those invited to such talks would be subject to such threats saddens me. Why should Mr. Terranovsky believe you when you give him choices when things like this happen? He will know of this and know that if he trusts you and goes into your custody then there will be nothing to stop you from violating your word and just handing him to Layne Yr anyway as you have done it before. What will you choose I wonder? Will you preserve your word or will you show yourself to be untrustworthy?

(Father Inido smiled warmly at the group and continues to sit there unresisting. If Layne Yrs people attempt to take him into custody the Larva will consume him in flame but not to mature just to consume the body so it may be restored in Kyrpos later leaving nothing behind but ash)

**Encrypted message to all TRILAT members invited to this meeting only not others.**

Prime or Ryuk please have a healer cast hold life on this stupid slughead. Hold life will prevent him from doing his rez trick.

He was lying when he came here. He was sent by Aryay as a distraction.

Brave Ulysses and the Alpha max plan is ready on the island.

Your focus Ryuk, take Terranovsky and get out of there. If you simply have a sanguine lord go cloud form they will feel where the invisible witness is. Then another Sanguine in physical form can attack and capture Terranovsky.

If the Quall attack Brave Ulysses will detonate. Let's see what their millions of Quall do when a wormhole swallows them all and a chunk of their dimension.

Either they withdraw and let us take the witness or no one gets the witness.

Don't say a word to the slughead or Aryay. Let the slughead sit here as if nothing is wrong. Let him smirk and grin. I want to feel his fear and upset when so many of his Hivemind are permanently removed from our timeline. Think he will cry.


**

To the Slughead,

You have said a lot I need to ponder. You will sit and wait until I am done thinking.

Grand Admiral

Admiral I am patient, please take your time, I can keep myself busy. One of the good things about a Hive Mind is that I can speak to others and if they allow let me see what they are seeing. I am glad to see that you are calm and mature enough to realize that silly tantrums will get you no where. Though it is sad that you still feel the need to use insults, but one cannot expect so much in such little time. My people should be landing......yes they are touching down now. They can speak in person to your people on the island. There are 10 Horned Dogs there, 6 will be there going around the island looking for anything of note while 3 will be questioning those that are there and one shall remain on the ship since he is the pilot.
If your people have questions for them then they will be cooperative. I as the envoy to you here will happily answer any questions you might have. After all this is what a diplomat does.

(Father Inido smiled again warmly humming to himself)

*Message to all present*

An image of Prime appeared in the meeting place. Prime looked...happy. The small grin looked somewhat bizarre on Prime's heavily scarred face. His body language was more relaxed than those who knew him had ever seen. Yet at the same time, there was a new dangerous gleam in his eye. He spoke as if the priest was not there at first.

"My darling Layne Yr. Well done! If you would be so kind as to forward the name and history of the assasins, I can use our electronic records to make a case for Ar'yay's involvement. Further, there were some other attacks. In particular, those dapper gentlemen. We wish to see where that lovely trail ends.

Breath-taking diplomacy, incidentally. I think I've spoiled the Quall overmuch with my niceties and diplomacy. Perhaps they should see why the Kassanthian Federation is feared even by those that have ascended."

Prime's gaze turned on the Priest, focusing on him.

"Priest, you come here in the name of your mistress Ar'Yay. Why do you care so deeply for an isolated rock, and an earther with no allegiance to you? We have reason to care, as Su Maehl is one of our most valuable business partners. Further, if I heard right and five Sanguine Lords are on the rock, it is in your best interest to simply let them leave as they came. If you have an interest in Twain, this may change things. Is he a valuable ally or supplier to Ar'Yay?"

*Encrypted to Trilat forces*

The message just begins with Prime laughing for seconds. Eventually, the message becomes words.

"Good faith? I think I've been spoiling these creatures with my diplomatic talk. I don't have the Leyas ability you seek to use, but I look forward to you using this simpleton as a fear battery until time itself is ground to paste. Insufferable little man.

Also, Ryuk, good initiative on this one. I'd say sending five Sanguine Lords in anything short of a fleet battle is...excessive, for reasons we can discuss later, but you have been handling yourself very well on this front. As far as the Unity is concerned, consider yourself point man for this exchange. If you need any assistance from me, let me know."

(Father Inido smiles at the image of Prime)
Greetings Unity Prime and welcome to this meeting. As for our interest in Mr Terranovsky, did you ask yourself why he was in Kyrpos in the first place? Perhaps some investigation might be useful especially since your ally's reason for being there was to "investigate" to be honest it looks more like a strike force being sent to kidnap someone. Mr. Terranovsky was doing a business deal with us, he has worked with us in the past and expects to work with us in the future. After all, if a business man treats you with respect then you continue to deal with them. Just like any diplomatic situation, you try to understand where the other side is coming from and then you can work with them. For example, your dealing with my mistress, you have made no attempt to try to understand her position and simply try to talk in circles to avoid actually doing anything. By not showing respect nothing gets done, perhaps you should upload some social behavior programs. (Father Inido smiles)

We have a vested interest in Mr Terranovsky's well being, we wish for him to be taken home. If Mr. Maehl wishes to speak to him he can contact the appropriate authorities to arrange something. As long as you wish to kidnap someone against their will within Kyrpos my people will oppose it. The Kasanthian Federation and even the Unity lack all legal right in this situation. They have no proof that this individual had anything to do with any crime and they know for a fact that he does not want to go with them. All I see is a witch hunt to throw the first person they see to an angry man.
So, that is my solution, send Mr. Terranovsky home, have Su Maehl contact the local authorities of the Free Systems, and as it seems that they hold him quite highly I am sure they will demand an investigation. Time Traveling aliens can generally do what they want with few stopping them after all.

As for investigating every attacker in the incident I am all for. Those dapper gentlemen as you say should be investigated along with the Kasanthian forces as well. Layne Yr seems quite focused on everyone except those people, i wonder why.
We welcome your assistance in this investigation Unity Prime, (Father Inido smiles at everyone present)

Father Inido,

My conversations with Ar'Yay, while slightly recursive, have been essential to my understanding the nature of the Quall. You must understand that the Unity has never conversed with her kind before. To think things would go smoothly, when our viewpoints are relatively entrenched, would result only in disappointment.

As for the investigation, this is a Kassanthanian operation primarily, and so I will not be taking a direct hand.

However, we find your supposition that Twain is uninvolved to be...highly dubious. Our issue is that the energy bridge used by the assassins for the purpose of escape and/or capture of defenders led right to Twain's ship. Had it not been for the incredible power of the Sanguine Lords, he likely could have made short work of Su Maehl and any defenders.

Are we to believe that he just so happened to be in the dead center of the operational theater simply to facilitate a business deal? This is dubious at best. However, this is an aside. You have given us Su Maehl's trust, and so your purpose is done here as far as the Unity is concerned.

Unfortunately, accusations against your Queen would be largely useless. She is already a rouge, and so we gain precious little from pursuing legal ends.

*Encrypted to the Trilat*

I am having a difficult time justifying this particular encounter, when I think about it. Twain can be...insufferable, but I am unsure that beginning open war with Ar'Yay is worth a single inventor. Further, Admiral, can you not just view the history of Twain's vessel? This should tell us what he was transporting. If it DOES turn out to be a danger, then it would be worth bringing him in.

(Father Inido smiled warmly at Unity Prime) All i have been asking is that the Trilat forces preform an investigation. Before attempting to kidnap someone against their will, find out if they are actually necessary. At the current moment everything is one person's statement against another, I have been asking for an investigation yet your people seem to be very much against it. I am here to find a diplomatic end to this situation so violence is not necessary. If you do not want to get involved ask the Kasanthians to find evidence to show that Mr. Terranovsky's involvement. The Kasanthians can use their Uth however they will need to actually provide proof other then "i asked an Uth and he said I was right" I say that Mr. Terranovsky was there to hand over materials for a business deal and the Kasanthians say that he was there to attack Su Maehl. Which by the way would have been quite hard from a different dimension.

It is in my best interest for him not to be kidnapped while within my territory as it will cause him to lose faith in me and endanger future deals. That is why I have repeatedly requested that he be returned home and if legal action is to be taken against him the proper authorities should be notified and not simply compound one alleged crime with another. I really do not see how my requests are unreasonable.

(Father Inido relaxed in his chair with a gentle smile on his lips)

Michael's image appears for the members of the TRILAT in the conversation. It is encrypted.

"I am confused. Is there a reason why Twain wasn't just captured or killed and sent back to allied space? It is my understanding that Sanguine Lords have the capacity to transport themselves and others from Kypos to friendly territory quite quickly, and the breakdown of these talks is ridiculous. The idea that he simply 'happened' to be in the location after the assassination is preposterous. If this is a business deal, the deal was either killing Maehl, stealing something from his office, or performing some type of recon. Furthermore, it is obvious that Ar'yay has a significant vested interest in this operation- while she does enjoy sticking her nose where it doesn't belong, it is unlikely that she'd go this far out of her way for some simple corporate intrigue.

I have two major questions: one, how long were the assassins in Maehl's holdings? Did they have enough time to do something else as well? Two, has Twain should be searched for information that would come as a result of industrial espionage?"

(Father Inido turned to the image of Gilmore and smiles at him) Mr. Gilmore how nice of you to join us, however you seem to have misunderstood the situation. You seem to believe that Mr. Terranovsky was found at the scene of the crime which he wasn't. He was found on a different dimension entirely. You see the attackers left through a dimensional portal called an Energy Bridge that led to the dimension of Kyrpos. The Sanguine Lords followed them through the energy bridge and lost track of the assassins. They found Mr. Terranovsky and his ship doing business with Some Quall N'Drone and proceeded to kill the Quall there and corner Mr. Terranovsky. The attackers most likely used this area to make their escape because they knew that the Sanguine Lords would view the Quall as a threat and move to go against them thus providing the attackers with the opportunity to escape.

So you see this is the kind of talk that I refer to. Mr. Gilmore doesn't know the details of the situation and yet wants violent action to be done without bother to find out any of the facts. Mr. Ryuk came to be in earnest wanting to find out the truth, he seems to be the only one among you that wants to do this. Is it just me who finds it odd that the only people who want to find out the truth of a situation and not act rashly are an accused Warciminal i.e Mr Ryuk and the "evil" Quall N'Drone? (Father Inido chuckles)

(out of character My character is there in person, so if you said it out loud in the meeting my guy will have heard it. The transmission was from your location to the meeting room. Thus it would be heard.

If it was shared in a different way please specify that and i will delete my post. )

((Where does it say there's a physical meeting room? I mean, if there is one, you'll hear it... Are you with Ryuk or something? All the talking here seems to be messages, complete with addresses and signatures. Unless they're saying their own names after every time they speak XD))

(Ryuk Invited me into a meeting, and in my post my character is there in person, in fact Layne Yr is planning on having my character sized because he is there in person. Review the previous messages, if my character isn't there in person then Layne Yr cannot be plotting on grabbing him. Plus if no one is there where are you projecting your image? )

((OOC: It was my understanding that Yr wasn't entirely sure herself, which is why she asked OOC. And Michael sends all his transmissions as videomessages for anyone to pick up. He doesn't really project them; it's just like a one-way skype call, or really more like a television show. I'll assume you're physically present with at least one TRILAT member though, wherever you are.))

A new transmission is sent out soon after he recieves Father Inido's words.

"While it may seem as if I have misunderstood the situation, I have not.

The assailents were tracked through the energy bridge to a ship owned by TNI. It is common knowledge that these two companies do not currently appreciate eachother. You are now proposing that this was either happenstance or a method of concealing who they actually worked for.

That is possible.

However, I think we can all agree that this is suspicious to an almost unreasonable degree. Due to the fact that tempers are flaring over percieved border violations, the easiest way to deal with this situation would be to extract the pertenant parties for questioning. Because resistance has been encountered, force should be used to expidite the process. If such actions had been taken, or if they are taken quickly, we don't need to discuss this with you any longer."

(Father Inido smiles again at Gilmore) The only issue with the concept of simply ignoring me and grabbing at Mr. Terranovsky is that if that happens a large amount of Quall N'Drone will fill the entire area with flame and incinerate everything and everyone there. Those Sanguine Lords are very very strong and against a small group of....well anything they will dominate. However with so many Quall putting out so much flame nothing would leave that island alive.

The issue here is that the Trilat members believe that it is their way or no way. There is no room for compromise, no care about others at all. You don't want to actually do any work to find proof so you want to do the default grab and put into your own power. It makes you all nervous to do an actual real investigation because you might be proven wrong thus a fair investigation is bad for you.

So you all have a choice to make, do you want to be seen as reasonable people who want to find out the truth, or do you want to be thugs who want to bully anyone and everyone who might question them.

I am simply here to express the Queens will and to give you advice. Grab him and show everyone that you are too scared to let a real investigation happen because you are afraid that truth is not on your side, or preform a joint investigation to find out the truth which may or may not be what you currently believe.

I have nothing to hide here which is why I want a fair investigation, I know that in time the truth of what I say will be proven. You all seem to want to ignore the truth and just lash out at anyone within reach.

Father Inido,

I invited you here on good faith that you were coming to help solve this situation. The Uth seers found out that your hive is responsible in a primary function for the attack.
Everything that we have done hasn't been according to our methods. If that were the case, Twain would be dead, and on his way to visit Admiral Yrs men, they have really good ways of finding out the truth. It was because we ended up in an area controlled by others than the TRILAT, that I made the decision to try and negotiate. It was my Decision to reach out to the local leaders, and all that you have done is criticize our typical methods. And when one of our members is confused about the reason why this is happening, you threaten to burn my men with 1 million Q'uall ?

You insult the members of the TRILAT, and threaten my men.
Choose your next words carefully, or they will be your last.

Ryuk

(Father Inido sighed for a moment, shook his head and turned to Ryuk with a bemused smile on his face) As to Mr. Terranovsky only being alive due to your deciding not to kill him, that is a silly assumption to make as he dazzled your people and engaged what looks to be like an earther invisibility system or cloaking field, that combined with him being an immutable your soldiers cannot see him or have any way of tracking him. So unless your people managed to make an attack on every portion of the island at the exact same time hitting him at the moment would be difficult.

Yes I criticized your colleges "typical methods", as in the ONLY thing they have wanted to do is "grab him and drag him away" there has been no other ideas coming out of your side. If there is a second idea that i failed to understand please tell it to me. If the only idea coming from the trilat is kill first and ask questions later then of course I am going to disagree.

As for the threat to burn the island, I believe Admiral Yr did also threaten to kill my inspection team if they even tried to land and find out the truth. I have on several occasions provided you with alternate plans and they have all been ignored. I explained what was going on to Mr Gilmore and his response to me was to tell the other people here to ignore me and just grab Mr. Terranovsky. The same plan of violence given again and again with no attempt to compromise. Of course my response is going to be to incinerate the island.

Perhaps I have given you too much credit Mr Ryuk, i took you for someone who actually wanted to find a non violent way to end this stand off. Was I mistaken? Do you want to end this without anyone dying? If you do please give me a different option, please.

Make a plan that isn't "kill everyone and take Mr. Terranovsky back with us" That is the entire point of these talks, for us to find a middle ground that can satisfy all parties. If you want to go far you are going to have to accept that in life you cannot have everything your way. My Queen first wanted to ask no questions, no talks just to start burning. I convinced her that we might be able to solve this without more death. She is humoring me by sending me here, she has little faith in your Trilat being able to actually make a deal.

Like I said earlier, i am fine with dying. I know when i asked for this role that there was a high possiblity that I would be murdered and I am even prepared to take my own life if I have to. My life isn't important, it is the lives of the people on that island which I am concerned with. Please, show me that you are capable of doing more then just lashing out in anger.

If you can all agree that the only way you will be satisfied is if your Sanguine Lords kill Mr. Terranovsky and drag him back with you without a shred of proof that he was involved in any attack against Su Maehl then these talks will end. I will leave and that island will become a battleground.
Otherwise I give you two options, one, preform a joint Quall, Kasanthian questioning session on that island and investigation to see what Mr.Terranovsky was doing there. If there is proof that he was involved in the plot he will be turned over to the Free System's authorities for his crimes.
Two, we record what is on the island and take a witness testimony from Mr. Terranovsky and send him home while petitioning the Free Systems to preform their own investigation as the crime happened in their territory.

If you have a different idea please share it, feel free to use your Uth to look for physical evidence we can all see to find the truth.

I am not the one being unreasonable, I keep bringing up options and points and you all keep ignoring them and going back to "we might as well just grab him and ignore this Horned Dog" Are there any real complaints to my statements or are you just ignoring them because you cannot respond with a real reason? Give me something to work with besides threats to me and the witness, please.

The scientist sends out a new message.

"It should be noted that my entire goal was to avoid interaction with the Quall in any way, shape, or form. As such, accusations of violence against me are not going to stick, at least in my mind. My suggestion would result in almost no damage to either side, a far more beneficial solution than the assault Ar'yay has threatened. Furthermore, by moving resources from your territories to our territories, we de-escalate the situation and allow everyone to take stock of what is going on.

As an aside, I do not know that killing Father Inido would do anything but give you a moment's satisfaction, Ryuk, and that satisfaction is not lasting or significant. He certainly did not orchestrate this plan, and he is simply making an argument from the viewpoint of the quall. Punishing him for that is as ridiculous as Ar'yay trying to butt her snout into our affairs.

Father, I find it greatly amusing that the quall are willing to send many, many thousands of their people to their deaths in order to protect someone from questioning. The fact that you are willing do devote such massive military force to a matter that you say does not affect you is, in and of itself, rather odd. For someone who blames us for drawing our swords too quickly, you seem very, very eager to escalate the situation well beyond its current parameters."
