Give law enforcement something to do, and give the ordinary people a choice. Stress their economy; get people to choose us instead of them."

My apologies; I thought you were referring to the plan before the master plan. When we get to the castle proper, we're going to need a stike force of people they can't fight. Some of us, probably, and some others in Universes all over the place."

Mostly multiverse-aware ones. But I also have a weapons dealer who just thinks I'm a mysterious guy who lives on Coruscant, sorry you don't know that. It just depends. It helps when you know a few gods."

Channelknight Fadran Posted October 22, 2020 Author Posted October 22, 2020 Just now, Condensation said: "What problem?" "Well, it's like what the old proverb says: 'give a man a man a fish, he'll eat for a day. Outfit a medieval army with rifles and laser blades, and you've suddenly crippled the course of history for a non-industrial planet because you were too goshdarn lazy for the war to end, and you've probably started at least seven terrorist organizations who're abusing the new technology, and nobody can fight back because all they have are spears.'" 1

Your planet and people have to the developments: not us. We can bring in an army to help fight for a time; we can't just outfit yours and expect everything to go along swimmingly. We can gear up a task force, but we need to leave it at that, or we'll completely destroy this planet's course of history."

Nathrangking he/him Posted October 22, 2020 Posted October 22, 2020 2 hours ago, Scarletfox said: looked at the ground. So he openly admitted his failure, his weakness. He was too weak to bear through the pain. Fox wasn't sure what she thought of that. He was... he was being sincere. That was something she appreciated. That was... something valuable. She lifted her eyes to father's, love and gratefulness twinkling in her eyes. Just then, Nath lifted them off the ground, and Fox, staring into his eyes, realized that he wasn't looking too good. He looked so exhausted and weak. "Father," she said softly, "Don't push yourself too hard." Here Fox was blithering over her hurt feelings, while her father had put so much strength toward reaching out to her. She wasn't sure if she was ready for forgiveness, but Fox did realize her immaturity at not being able to. She would get there in time. 1 hour ago, Mist said: T notices Nathrangking carrying himself and Fox. "Would you like me to help you two?" "Yes, our group is quite experienced. T here is the one with force fields. I can make fire. We've handled some extreme situations, that's for sure." I hear T's words and gently shake my head no. A smile touches my eye as I see the love glow in her eyes. That fire warms me and almost makes me forget the the fatigue which crawls throughout my form robbing me of everything. In an instant I withdraw fully from the mindscapes and bonds that I had been occupying. I release the winds and some strength floods back. Not much, but some. Before the winds depart I whisper a few words that travel to Fox alone. "As you wish daughter." Love laces them. I turn to the council of war. "If my words would be heard I would speak."

I'm going to go find a bed, because I haven't slept in a week and you two," he pointed between Herate and Daolan, "need to catch up. Peace out." He ducked out of the tent. 2
