[IC] Myriad Reality

[Session]

<Snipped quote by Session>

No one knew what was happening from the onset. You can't be blamed for this. ES has never shown this sort of ability before even to parties that know him well.
*Squats down next to you*
None of you could have been ready, and none of you could have known.

@Stratocracy

*Sighs*
Not even Rea, huh?

<Snipped quote by LimeTime966>

How fascinating it is that we have all of these nice things, and yet it's not destroyed by the abundance of lawlessness. It's amazing.

@Artifact

Ah, yes. I've never wondered why there are no overarching powers to implement justice.

@Session

*Maintains a stern yet empathetic tone*
If that is someone you met here, then no.

@Stratocracy

*Looks up at you*
Did you all get anything good out of this?

[Artifact]

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

Ah, yes. I've never wondered why there are no overarching powers to implement justice.

@LimeTime966

It's just not realistic to have that level of oversight. But there are a few things I think we can all agree on.

@Session

If I had to find a silver lining?
*Thinks for only a brief moment*
ES has put his capabilities on the radar. We're more aware of an enemy, so we can prepare better for if we ever encounter this scenario again.

@Artifact

Yes. I think most people agree on getting rid of the dangerous beyond saving, and saving those who can be saved.

@Stratocracy

How many lives is that worth?

<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

@Session

Zero, of course. But it's important for the sacrifice to have meaning. It makes it... Easier to swallow.

@LimeTime966

Most people do! But even that requires a judgement call, right? Who's too far gone to be saved?

@Stratocracy

*Sits up*
Alright, I won't waste a pretty lady's time moping. What do you need from me?

@Session

Well, firstly, are you okay? Physically.

<Snipped quote by Session>

@Stratocracy

As physically as I can be. I'm burnt and stuck here, but won't be forever.

[LimeTime966]

@Artifact

Hm...I always go for a more physical, tangible perspective.

@LimeTime966

And what's that?

[Stratocracy]

<Snipped quote by Stratocracy>

@Session

Of course. You have somewhere you're expected to be afterward, right?

[LimeTime966]

<Snipped quote by LimeTime966>

And what's that?

@Artifact

Well, something I can change with my own hands. Whenever I think of action, that's what I think of.

@Stratocracy

*Leans back*
Am I? In theory, I'm a free man once this is all said and done.

@LimeTime966

Of course. And even you are making judgements. Even I, I'm making judgements. And how does that become something other than the strong versus the weak?

@Session

Of course. It was part of the deal. A deal which, as far as my own discretion is concerned, was technically fulfilled. Assuming the info others gave me is accurate.
