Matilda frowned a little at the mess, that undoubtedly she was going to have to clean up. "Hey, Rudy. Making a mess, I see."

IC: Kaenis - The Arena

Kaenis' eyes followed his finger down to the bandanna, and her hand slowly reached up to feel it. Something about it seemed to calm her, and something like a hesitant smile came to her face. She nodded and followed after.

--IC: Bacchus: The Arena--

Bacchus beamed as his friend came back to join the rest of the group.  "Alright, here's the 411," he declared once he and Kaenis had returned to the dais.  "Kaenis, Juno, come and stand up here with me.  I've got a hypothesis.  Three Virtues, three people, but those three people have to stand together under the Three Virtues to get more than just a pretty light show.  I think.  Maybe that's why nothing happened when just a random three of us stood on here.  Giant woman!" he called after.  "How are those sketches coming along?  Find anything interesting?"

IC: Tekmo (Black Spike Mountains)

"Excellent. So... what's the safe radius of these explosives?"

GM IC: Skrall - Black Spike Mountains

"It's not the blast radius you need to worry about," the lead Skrall gestured vaguely to the ground, which was strewn with bits of rock. Given that the stone in this area was already predominantly black, nothing about it really stood out to Tekmo, but there was evidently some significance to the rubble the Skrall was indicating. "There's a lot of loose stone on these slopes. There's a risk of landslides."

IC: Armani - Investigation

Armani excused herself from the room after a nod in return, and once she was out, she briefly pondered her next steps. Speaking to the spies, perhaps...? Though, what would she learn? She knew they had been ordered by their superior, followed without question... But there was something to this, she could tell. Who were Coyle's informants? Why did he seem so unbothered about them causing such a catastrophe? She mused on this as she descended the stairs.

"Um... I got... hungry," she says quietly, her claw slowly creeping out of the box with another handful of cereal.

 

IC: Kaenis - The Arena

Kaenis sighed and took her indicated place on the dais. She warily watched the stone below her for any change.

 

IC: Arkis - Cliffside (Office)

Arkis cries out as he's shoved backward with surprising force, sending him staggering into a cart of tools. All but disregarding the pain in his frenzy, he pushes back off and tries to tackle Rakpazis before it sees his guest.

GM IC: The Dais - The Arena

As the three beings stepped up onto the dais, the ethereal lights once again began to emanate from the stones. One of the circles lit up green, then another, only for the third to flare red once again, and the lights dimmed once more.

The spies were probably her best lead. She headed down to where they were detained.

GM IC: Armani - The Tower

'Detained' appeared to be too strong of a word. The spies had been escorted to an empty dining room on one of the lower levels, with food and drink provided. They were laughing and chatting, the room's door wide open, with only two guards making a token effort to keep them confined.

IC: Armani - Things That Make You Go Hmm

Armani walked up to the wide open doors, and looked inside, before looking to the guards. "Hmm" was her first comment on the matter. Her stance and expression was not of anger or annoyance, of course, and she addressed the guards politely. "Hello there! This seems a rather unusual place to keep detainees caught committing a criminal act, even if under orders. Might I ask what prompted this odd arrangement?"

IC: Vrokdann - Aqua Magna shoreline > the Aquarium

 "..." Vrokdann was truly at a loss for words. Why did I shoot lasers at his stand? The truth, there's a voice in my head I keep fighting with, wouldn't cut it.

-Say something dumb, girl, but answer soon...!-

"Okay, but why don't you give me an idea, since it was your fault to begin with?" Vrokdann hoped to be speaking low enough not to cause terrible misunderstandings with her boss.

-Uhh, rivalries! Rivalries always cut it!-

"Well you see," Vrokdann spoke aloud now. " I saw this... person I'm not exactly on good terms with, We'd agreed that, should we see each other again we'd settle it then and there, once and for all. So I saw them around your stand and my instinct was just, zap that hopeless scrub! I don't even know if I got them, tough luck."

-Huh, could've been worse.-

She had excused herself now, but she hadn't apologised...

Arkis' lighter, weaker frame is easily tossed aside, rolling back into another cart. "What? I don't... understand! But you need to leave... now!"

Kaenis watched as the lights glowed green, green, then red. Another failure. As far as she was concerned, it was her fault.

"Of course." Armani glanced back to the doorway. "I understand that this may not feel very serious. They are your fellows, after all, acting under orders. I do understand that. But, be that as it may... betraying the trust of our people is a very grave matter, indeed. Thank you for performing your duties regardless of the situation. I hope to see the matter resolved as quickly as possible. On that note, would you mind if I spoke to them briefly?"

IC: Littiuu - Tesara, Coffee Shop

There were some times - not many, but some - when it became really hard to be the constantly cheery figure she believed the world needed.

Calidus' words lay heavy on Littiuu's shoulders as he explained more fully what had happened. Why any terrorist would target Tesara, almost-paradise as it was in this wasteland, was beyond the Ta-girl, whose frown deepened at the thought of her fellow Tesarans driven to such fear. She was... there was no denying it, the usually always-upbeat girl was angry that someone had brought it to this. She didn't try to suppress it, in the moment; just absorbed some more of her cake in a brooding manner.

After several long moments, she sighed.

"I want to say 'let's get them back, make them pay'; but revenge never solved anything yet."

A calming breath. Then another.

Then one more, just for good measure. Slowly, even in spite of everything, a smile worked its way back onto her face.

"Maybe I can help another way, though. If people are so scared... they need some happiness to take their mind off it. Someone to be reassuring and cheerful, and... well, that could be me!"

It was what she'd always done back home, for her people; ever since the Great Cataclysm. Surely she could help do the same here too, couldn't she?

IC: Kastir - The Arena

"Actually... yes."

Her sketchings weren't pretty, but they did the job; and once she saw the new combination again fail to light up as desired, the giant stepped to Bacchus' side, handing him back the pad. It showed essentially what she'd seen: instead of the lights representing virtues, the first one was illustrated with a silhouette that resembled the late Great Spirit Robot more than anything else; the second, central light bore the design of a planet, probably Spherus Magna; while the third showed the many-pointed star design that she didn't recognise.

"I've got a theory."

She glanced across at Drukann, her employer, who had been quiet so far; but Kastir didn't see any harm in sharing what she'd learned with the trio. They were all here for the same purpose after all, weren't they? What benefited them benefited all of them.

"It looks like these symbols represent places. If that's the case, that means to activate the... whatever, you'd need one Spherus Magna native-" she pointed at Bacchus with a sharp claw.

"One from our old universe-" she indicated generally to everyone else present.

"And one from..."

She trailed off, reaching over Bacchus' shoulder to tap the third symbol she'd sketched. What it represented... was that the Red Star? But the Red Star was just that, wasn't it - a star? How was someone supposed to hail from the depths of a star? Or if not, what did it represent? Bacchus' guess was as good as hers, in that case.

IC: Tarutu - Black Spike Mountains

Well, if that was that... there seemed precious little for her to do, at present, as the Skrall got back to work with their bombs, while she and the Tesara expedition... just watched, the businesswoman supposed. She might be good with her hands, but she didn't know her way around an explosive; and while some skills could be picked up in a matter of minutes... she didn't think trying that was worth the risk. The Skrall clearly knew what they were doing, and wouldn't want her underfoot; so Tarutu supposed the best she could do was settle in for a long wait.

And maybe find a decent question to ask, in the meantime.

"Hey, excuse me?"

She waved from her cockpit in the direction of the lead Skrall, who would probably see little more than a short blue arm poking over the top of the windscreen.

"Yeah, another Atero girl here; you might have visited my shop there. But serious question: what exactly are you expecting to uncover? I get it, you're looking for Fe too; but you've got to be trying to find more than just old pipes. If I know what, more specifically, you're hoping to find, I can lend my expertise too."

Her expertise had little to do with mountains and explosives... but she was good at finding things that people were looking for. That had to count for something.

Calidus' look was that of empathy, but it steeled up after a few moments.

"Absolutely. But...just know, I'm not gonna stop until we know just who did this, and why." He put his coffee down, wiping his face with the back of his hand. "This is my hometown, and I'm not gonna let some psychos ruin it for their political game."

--IC: Bacchus: The Arena--

"Aw, what?!" the Rock Agori exclaimed in disappointment as the lights on the dais failed to light up in a new way.  His theory had been torpedoed... but!  He wasn't bummed out about it for too long.  Part of being an investigator was, well, investigating different theories about things and seeing which one was the correct one.  And it seemed like the giant woman had a theory of her own to share.

Bacchus accepted his notebook back and observed the sketches that had been made on it, raising an eyebrow in intrigue as the giant woman explained her theory.  "Hrmmm... if your 'three people from three places' theory is indeed correct, then we have two possible options for what place this symbol represents," he said, tapping the many-pointed star symbol after her.  "That-" he pointed to the symbol of the Great Spirit Robot- "is where the Old Universe lay in the cosmos.  And that-" he tapped the star symbol again- "is where Bota Magna lay.  I think it's possible that this symbol could represent Bota Magna; in fact, I think that that's most likely."  He tapped his chin with the stem of his pipe and turned his gaze skyward.  "The only other option I can think of... though it is a bit far-fetched... is that it represents... the Red Star."

-   -   -

--IC: Catina: Cliffside--

After what felt like hours, though could have likely only been a few minutes, a throbbing pain roused Catina from his resting slumber.  He awoke to look at his hands- the wounds on them ached, and the hasty bandages he had dressed them with had stuck fast.  Were he to remove them, the scabs would be torn open again.  His hands were his most important tool; if they were not whole, he could not use his weapons, forage for food and supplies, slay hostile beasts.  Hasty bandages were only a temporary solution.  He needed better healing.

During his climb up into Cliffside, he had seen an alcove beneath the plateau with promising signage.  The Glatorian removed his notice from the board he had rested under, straightened his pack, and set off to find a way down that did not involve any more harm to his hands.  It took some minutes of exploring, but to his pleasure, he eventually discovered a set of stairs that led down.

On the threshold, his hand went instinctively to Thunder Manibus' handle as a very large, very dirty, very ugly bird took off from the alcove.  But it did not seem to have any interest in him, so he lowered his aching hand.  He approached the ajar door and found behind it a prone Glatorian lying in a cart, and a strange creature that appeared to be some sort of mix between Agori and plant.  He did not make a sound, but he found his hand going back to Thunder Manibus again.

With that sudden departure, Arkis just lays on the ground, starting to feel his bumps and bruises where he had been tossed around by the strange creature. He groans, and his head lolls back... only to see the one he had tried to protect standing out in the open. "What do you think you're..."

He's cut off by the sound of footsteps on the rickety stairs outside. His head pops up, and he winces, then again as he notices a grey Glatorian in the doorway. "...we're closed," he mutters, knowing it's probably fruitless.
