[28] Voice Post, High Priority to all Residents

[phd_query]

[The PDA seems to be collecting a lovely amount of acoustic resonance from wherever the Doctor is speaking. He sounds calm and confident, sure of every word.]

Econtra. All of Econtra, new arrivals, old survivors. All of you. Please. Listen to what I have to say.

All of us resent being taken from everything we know. The people we love, the places

I needed no speech to convince me to face these Entropi.

...Still... Impressive words.

Voice || Quiet

[phd_query]

...Some people didn't realize what's at risk here.

Thank you.

Voice || Indignant

[gm_kragok]

Tch. I'm not doing it for you or Econtra. I care little for most of the residents here, and these Keepers and the Warden can all rot for my cares and tastes.

I am doing this for the children enslaved into this war, and I am doing it so that eventually, I can feel the lifeblood of the Warden pulse slowly away as I make him pay for thinking he could enslave the Grandmaster of the Dark Legion.

Voice || Still calm

[phd_query]

I didn't ask you to do it for me. You're doing it for all the right reasons, except revenge.

...revenge gets you nowhere. Revenge leads to more death, more destruction. When does that desire for blood stop? A person? A town? A country? A planet?

[Voice // Very Quiet]

[mewinmyhat]

... I will.

[Voice // Quiet in Return]

[phd_query]

Thank you.

What was your name?

[Voice // Quiet]

[mewinmyhat]

Anything to help.

Shiki.

[Voice - Fond]

[phd_query]

Shiki? Pleasure to meet you. I'm the Doctor.

[thieveryofstars]

!!

You need to come to the council that's being set up and give that kind of speech where everyone will hear it in person.

[phd_query]

Time and a date, my friend! Consider me there.

[thieveryofstars]

Not sure yet, but I'll be sure to make everyone aware of it. But judging by the reactions, it shouldn't take too long.

[phd_query]

Good. Let me know the details.

What was your name?

[Voice]

[poppingseeds]

You know how I feel about my own world -- beings like the Entropi stand no chance against my pantheon.

But it will be for the worlds of my friends that I'll fight. I'll stand with you and them and everyone else here if it means keeping them safe.

[Voice - Quiet, but amused]

[phd_query]

Persephone, dear, woe betide the being that encounters you in a dark alleyway at night!

Thank you.

[Far, far quieter, sonic, screened, unhackable]

You're helped me find this part of me again. You challenged my own apathy and forced me to look somewhere besides my own issues. Happens when you get old. You get cranky and self-centered and you want your coffee and tea a certain way-...

Thank you. Really.

[Voice]

[poppingseeds]

[laughing]

Oh, it would never stand a chance. I'd have it in flowers before I even looked at it.

[Screened | Unhackable]

I... didn't realize I had such an effect. If you ever need something from me, you've earned my graces. I'll always be there for you.

[/Screened]

Re: [Voice]

[thieveryofstars]

I don't mean to interrupt, Persephone, but if you think about it... if you're on level with the rest of the gods in your world and the cuff can keep you here in Econtra... your world might not be safe either.

The Warden says that the Consulo and cuffs are from Entropi technology. So actual Entropi would be much more dangerous.

Voice || Perturbed

[finitevus]

I am listening, Doctor.

Pardon the Grandmaster's temper. He takes his duties... seriously.

Voice || Cheerful

[phd_query]

Oh, it's alright. He's got zeal, and I like that.

Better than apathy.

Voice || Musing

[finitevus]

Transdimensional beings? It would explain their ability to maintain a cohesive form despite the claims of their energy-based life status.

Voice || Quiet

[phd_query]

I could time lock this area. Get everyone out. Seal them in.

They'd be stuck for eternity.

...last resort though, I'd really rather not do that.
