[ 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.

[ she drools out the words to prove her point. ]
He said that this Empire of the Crashing Wave just appeared—poof!—out of no where. Apparently the Empress leans heavily enough on her advisors to lean the conservative route to keep the peace. Though he did say she may be willing to give up her throne if her people our threatened. She is, after all, not a blood relation of the last Empress, but appointed after the last Empress died without an heir.

Really?
There's a means and there's an end—is ther a benefit in her stepping down from the crown, other than what seems like her own at the moment?

I'm just making sure you aren't looking to complete it like that.

A lot is possible right now.

I don't like the idea of her just stepping down so we can be done here. That won't solve the conflict. And it'll likely brew resentment.
But it does mean that she's willing to make drastic moves for the good of her people. We can use that.

That's good to hear, actually. Suggests she's a reasonable person.

I take it you're more of a straight-forward sort of fellow.

Everyone comes from different worlds, so perspective always seems to get tossed into the mix.
