∞ 04: Preening

As much as I dislike these new appendages, they provide something to do in between reading books and furnishing my room. Though I feel even more bird-like picking at my wings to keep them presentable. Hmph.

At least those annoying flowers are no longer invading ... everything.

Stone? Viki explained it as individuals who gather when war arises; whether or not they are the cause of the war, she did not say. She seemed rather adamant that I was a star.

Perhaps. And if it comes to pass, you would do well not to be so confrontational, unless you intend to get yourself killed.

Not against the Malnosso, no. It made it easier to go to war against me, did it not?

[ooc: Leon probably thought it was even more foolish than Albert. XD And he probably wasn't at all impressed with Leknaat reviving Gremio. >> It's amazing enough he passed on the knowledge of Yuber to Albert. u_u]

As far as I know, you were. Apparently it had the historians in a tizzy.

Ah, I don't intend on getting myself killed anytime soon -- though, from precedent I can only assume I'd probably just come back to life anyway.

Well, I'll do what I can, regardless.

I somehow doubt that historians would acknowledge mysticism like that so readily.

"Come back to life" is hardly the way to think of it. You are here by the Malnosso's whim; by that same fact, you are revived by their whim. If they see fit, they could dispose of you like so much garbage.

Of course. You can make a reputation of offering your services to ragtag bands. How disappointing.

[ooc: Nope. Leon's dabbling into the arcane and summoning Yuber is never explained. And, as far as I know, the legend of the Stars of Destiny aren't mentioned in history. Other than Leknaat and the Qlon monks, I don't think anyone refers to the Stars. :o]

Not all historians, no. But historians often write history to favor the people paying them, so who is to say for certain?

As could they dispose of any of us, at any time, rebellious or not. To die fighting rather than live in chains is a popular sentiment of many a warrior, is it not? And who knows? Perhaps to be disposed of here is to return home and continue as if nothing ever happened.

Well, it's worked out so far, hasn't it?
