[broca]

Not really, that's why I'm asking you...

You don't know where it's coming from then?

[worldbent]

Our host.

No, unfortunately

In a sense, you could say it is everywhere. But there is always a core. A weakness.

[broca]

Any ideas where?

[worldbent]

Not for another of your reckless charges.

[broca]

I didn't say I was going to rush in to find it.

[worldbent]

[No ... But Matoba might.]

Why do you want to know if not?

[broca]

[ And yet here he is giving Broca a hard time!! ]

Dunno yet. I need to figure out what it's doing and why, and what we can do if we even find it.

[worldbent]

This isn't a concern for the Sightless. This sort of chaotic aura is too dangerous.

Simply try to bear it for now.

[broca]

No.

If you're not going to answer questions, I'll just have to find someone else who can.

[worldbent]

Those with power must do their part for the whole. And those who cannot do anything useful should stay out of the way.

You are going to get innocents killed with this stubbornness of yours someday.

[broca]

Vaffanculo. I have my Arts.

No one needs to be involved with what I do unless they want to. You don't want to, so I won't ask anything else.

[worldbent]

If they are are not techniques made for the dealing of spirits, what do you hope to accomplish? [He doesn't speak PASTA CAT]

If they want to and you allow them, that is even worse. Do not drag the weak into the fray.

[broca]

[ Please! It's pasta wolf! ... The cat language is like fish and chips, and beans on toast. ]

I'll figure it out if I have to.

Who says I would be? You're assuming you're the only one with this kind of strength here. Don't.

[worldbent]

[No he hates this]

Haphazard and foolish. Is this supposed to convince me that you will not run headlong into danger?

No. I am not the only. I will join forces with others capable of handling such matters, but I will not allow needless sacrifice. Yourself included, Broca.

[broca]

I'm not planning to, but I'm not going to sit back and wait for someone else to figure things out for me.

[ This, he figures, addresses both parts, and lets him say the least number of words possible. ]

[worldbent]

[sasuga]

Everyone has their use. Defend. That is your skill.

[Not because of what he's told Matoba about his past- but because of what he has observed, with his own eyes. That's his job to learn, as one who leads others.]

[broca]

You haven't really seen me in combat. You don't know what my skill is.

[ Snatching Matoba away from a weird blob spirit does not count. ]

[worldbent]

No. I know your nature.

[Hmph it kinda does :T]

[broca]

Good. Then you already know I'm not going to sit down and ignore this.

[worldbent]

[Unfortunately. He does.]

You were warned.

[It's still the stirring before the storm. Perhaps he has time to stop this before everyone else wrecks themselves (narrator: he won't)]

[broca]

[ Looks like Matoba does understand enough to spare himself the effort then. ]

Got it.

Take the warning yourself too, and don't do anything stupid. Things here aren't necessarily going to work the same way you're used to.

[ He's not forgetting Matoba literally just talking about striking first. ]

[worldbent]

I have a clan to run, Broca-san. I will not take any uncalculated risks.

[Which is still not none! But he has responsibilities to temper him. Kind of.]

[broca]

[ Yeah, he's noticing that. He's also not who you go to if you want to be talked out of risky choices though. ]

Right...

Tell me if you actually figure out anything more, and decide you actually want to share.

[ Until then, looks like he'll have to hunt down some other people with spiritual powers to get some real information out of them. ]

wait I thought I tagged this..!

[worldbent]

I will do so, if it is prudent.

For now, be cautious. These fluctuations in spiritual energy are similar to when a seal is about to break. A shockwave would be the least of it- and could affect more than just those of us who can feel it now.

surprise untagged

[broca]

[ Something useful to know. Looks like this somewhat frustrating conversation still had a point to it.

When a seal is about to break, huh...?

I'll keep that in mind.
