Involve nobody outside your Faction.

Power clusters in Existence.

@Etcetera

Is that all you can tell me?

[Balance]

Shinji:

.... I say we find a way to draw Mordric out into fighting the Berserker.

@souleaterfan320

-Ruby- Would you just shut up for five minutes so we can deal with the thing happening right now?
-Maddie- You don't have to be mean abou it!
-Ruby- *grumbles*

@Balance

Hey! There are many things happening now! As we speak!! You are in my home! If you wish to denounce the other guests, leave.

@Spiritblitz

No. But I don't know what you're looking for.

[Spiritblitz]

<Snipped quote by Spiritblitz>

No. But I don't know what you're looking for.

@Etcetera

Pretty much everything that you know about the Factions.

Shinji:

My apologies for simply offering an idea.

@Etcetera

Shinji:

..alright.

[Etcetera]

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Pretty much everything that you know about the Factions.

@Spiritblitz

Well, we made the Factions, so pretty much everything. Whenever we discover a cluster of beings with unusually high amounts of power, we assign a faction to them.

@souleaterfan320

You may or may not be involved. Involve no one unnecessarily.

@Etcetera

Oh. How many Factions are there so far? And are we able to reach those Factions?

[Etcetera]

@Spiritblitz

We're running checks right now to see if certain clusters qualify. But no.

Interesting. Do you know why we aren't able to?

@Spiritblitz

-Ruby- But it's totally unrelated! There's this big old portal in front of us concerning the state of Existence as a whole and suddenly, he interrupts everything with a statement, out of the blue, that is nowhere near as urgent as what's happening right in front of us--and you can't deny that.

@Etcetera

-Ruby- So there's lots of groups like us?

[Webmaster]

In other words, you recently discovered that you aren't the only group of powerful beings in Existence, and that there are other threats that you don't handle. Upon doing so, you established a system that ranks you as the first, solely because you knew of yourself, instigating the illusion of dominance due to the fact that you have no estimate of the possible power of other Factions, and you wished to inform us in the event that our odds of defeating the Nobility are greater than yours. Correct?

@Balance

I can. If you deny it, then I question your priorities and your judgement on what is urgent and not.

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

@Spiritblitz

None of us are. Light contact is the best you'll manage.

@Webmaster

...Correct. Close, at least. How did you know this?

@Etcetera

Logical extrapolation. Your tone, word choice, sentence structure, and other factors revealed it.

@Spiritblitz

-Ruby- *sighs* Allow me to briefly reason: the portal concerns the immediate threat of the Nobles, but Shinji speaks of the swords and Mordric, who doesn't even know about the swords yet. Which do you think is more urgent? Hmm?

Miles, do a check on this one, and then the others after.

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

@Spiritblitz

Not particularly.
