Ah, excellent, my Tengu Journal has finally arrived.  This should make things a lot easier.

[Private, unhackable]

Including my private thoughts...it seems the magic of these devices extends to protecting their content, so that makes them the first place I can write down my true intentions for posterity - after all, these are meant to record the war

Chauvanism indeed. We wouldn't want to leave out the lovely ladies, now would we?

But what's a reasonable sounding fellow like you doing working for a vicious son-of-a-gun like Mazane?

[char_char_char]

I haven't always totally agreed with Lord Enma's specific policies, but his underlying beliefs parallel my own, and he is my liege. Besides that, I'm a native son of the territory he rules by right, and I could hardly raise my hand against my countrymen.

[inventor_king]

Do you ever worry he might think of you as a threat?

[char_char_char]

Lord Enma, like every wise clan leader, considers everyone a potential threat, but as I have no desire to rule Clan Enma or the Empire ([Private]completely true, actually[/Private]), he has nothing to fear from me, nor I him.

Luckily I am a woman who does not take such things personally, so I will pardon your chauvinism.

This once.

[char_char_char]

My thanks, my lady. I'll try to avoid such outdated turns of phrase in the future.

[reaperofjustice]

You carry yourself quite well, warrior. For what reason do you fight with Enma, if I may ask?

[char_char_char]

As I told King Edgar, patriotism and a basic belief in rule by strength.

If I'm not mistaken, you're Light, the Reaper of Mizuke, right? I look forward to matching wits with you on the battlefield, assuming that becomes necessary.

[reaperofjustice]

I am. I, too, look forward to matching wits with you. You're quite the unknown, Mr. Aznable, I am interested in seeing what you can do.

War is only ugly if you don't know what you're doing. I certainly hope that isn't the case for you.

[char_char_char]

War kills good men and women. It doesn't kill the best men and women, but it does so to those around us.

[killing4thelulz]

Is that not the path of all the weak? To die? I couldn't hardly care less.

[char_char_char]

Dying doesn't mean you're weak, Luciano. At least, not weak enough to deserve no respect.
