[ Aizawa's lolling against some tree somewhere. Terrible, slumped posture; hair wild about his face. His expression is neutral, bordering on irritable, and his voice is an exhausted monotone. He sits with one leg folded over the other, idly tossing a cat figurine from hand to hand. ]

Hey. Myself and a few others did some looking around. Apparently, both the sea clan and the mountain clan have their allies--but they're not within easy reach. In the case of the sea clan, the empress's brother is married to some far-off queen. The mountain clan's allies aren't too nearby, either.

[ He shifts minutely. His eyes flutter briefly shut, and he sighs. ]

Point being, war between these two would be irrational. The old man we spoke with said no one really wants to start anything, but I don't know how true that is. I haven't tried to approach the nobles.

[ He really doesn't look or act the part, and he knows it. Nor does he have an escort. ]

If you've spoken to any of them, what's the mood? What do they want?

[ He cards a hand through his hair, frowning slightly. ]

They're the key to this, I think. Certainly the key to actually meeting that empress of theirs. So if you've got info, or if you've made any connections, spill it.

Hey, you're awake again.

[ and digging up info yusuke doesn't really know what to do with yet. ]

What's the old man know? If they really want to fight, it's not gonna be rational. That sneak attack wasn't.

By all accounts, the "sneak attack" wasn't an official action. Don't assume everyone's irrational just because a handful of people took matters into their own hands.

That handful did a lot of damage.

[ which had probably been the point of that sneak attack. ]

Maybe no one officially wants to start a fight, but people have gotta be pissed. That's not going away overnight.

Right. But it's different from an all-out war. We still have time to stop that from happening.

Right.

[ The least optimistic "right" ever uttered. ]

You see what that Thrawn guy is saying?

[Give her a second to re...listen?? To what he's saying. However the magitek works, mysteryghost.png.]

I disagree that stopping a war before it starts is ever wrong.

He's right about the other thing. About what happens if no one declares war but the attacks keep happening.

[ wow his skills are great!! ]

I didn't think about that.

[ but the bigger picture comes into stark focus. ]

I talked to a guy on here who thinks the attacks are still gonna keep going on, even if war isn't happening yet. What if they keep going even if the nobles want peace?
