[You can all see Fuu holding a dark green book with a cross on the cover. It seems like there's a Bible in the City library. For a few moments, she seems to be leafing through the pages before she halts.]

Oh, there it is-!

[She clears her throat and with a smile turns to the video feed, which in this angle, appears to be sitting on her

It doesn't seem that we have much choice but to hold on until then.

[willofthewinds]

That much is true, Yuuko-san. How are you doing?

[moresake]

Well enough, considering. The water and the creatures were easily taken care of with proper spells, but there is more to come.

[willofthewinds]

There is. Eight more plagues if we're truly going by this book.

[moresake]

One to involve the blood of innocents, as well.

[willofthewinds]

That's true. I would not want to kill a lamb.

[moresake]

And there is no god to which I would like to make such a sacrifice myself.

[willofthewinds]

It is a bit... odd if you think about it. Sacrificing innocent lives for the sake of a plague.

[moresake]

It is a common thing in that thread of Western philosophy-- to give in return for assured safety-- but although I understand the value of payment, I do not twist it into a threat.

[willofthewinds]

I believe in equivalent exchange but over the top is just too much.

[moresake]

This is no equivalence-- it is appeasement.

[willofthewinds]

I still don't see any important reason why. I just see a mindless slaughter about to be done.

[moresake]

Then you see what I see. Lamb or human, it is slaughter nonetheless.

[willofthewinds]

I'm certain Hikaru-san won't like this.

[moresake]

She isn't the only one. However, most of you are left with little choice, assuming that the Angel will walk among us and that you wish to cling to your own lives.

[willofthewinds]

[She sighs. This time, seriously.]

I hope it appease them, regardless. Any more than this would be just foul.
