∞ 74: A windy day [action]

[chikaidestroyer]

[Despite the mild windiness today, Albert is sitting out on the porch of his house. He has a few notes and his journal with him, but he's mostly just out there to think and drink a little. The town meeting was just yesterday, and it certainly proved a few things he had surmised about the populace. There had been a few opinions he had heard that more clearly showed others' state of mind (some for the better, most for the worse), and he had to readjust those plans accordingly.

Now to think of the next course of action.]

[Sitting down into the chair beside the man, Frederic bows his head again with proper mannerisms to Albert.]

My name is Frederic Francois Chopin, a pleasure to meet you. May I have the honor of knowing your name?

[Very proper, from mannerisms to speech. A nobleman, perhaps? Albert studies the man as he introduces himself.] I am Albert Silverberg, a strategist by training. You are fairly new here, are you not?

[He pauses for a moment and remembers hearing his name before.] Oh, you are Mister Albert Silverberg? Yes I am, Sir. Although, I spoke with a young lady named Miss Usagi Tsukino who told me to see you for all of my questions about this village. If I may be allowed to ask you any, I do have many questions that I need to be answered.

[Usagi? ...Well, he had been noticing people referring to him over the journals for one reason or another.]

Questions about what in particular?

I would like to know why exactly the Malnosso have brought us here and for what purpose. I also wish to know what purpose they are wish to recruit us for this battle they've been discussing about with us.

[Another New Feather who knew so little of the situation. Just another sign that something different needed to be done.]

The Malnosso brought us here, specifically within this barrier, for closed experimentation away from the rest of the population. We were chosen because of a certain strong trait that we all share; it sets us apart and makes us better candidates for their experiments. Their goal is to find a proven way to send people back to their worlds.

There is another group out there that disagrees with what the Malnosso are doing. We have engaged in fighting them before.

I knew of them capturing us for experimentation, but the rest of what you have told me is completely new. I do not know what about me personally the Malnosso can see, to be honest. However, if they are finding a way to send people back to their worlds, I will gladly take it.

As for this other group, are they what one might call rebels? If they are, I have my fair share of them.

There is ill will between the two groups, but we do not know anything about other factions outside of the barrier to consider the Third Party 'rebels.' As it is, allying ourselves strongly with either group isn't wise when we know neither of them have our best interests in mind.

I would agree with you, Mister Silverberg. Until either side proves they have our best interests in mind, allying with either is unwise.

Even if finding a way back to our worlds sounds tempting, they could be holding it above our heads as a way to get us to do what they wish of us.

[chikaidestroyer]

Indeed. For now, we will need to think of future opportunities from the perspective of what is best for us.

Thank you for the information you've provided to me, Mister Silverberg. I know I am still fairly new to this village, but I will do my part to help others and be of use.
