[ you don't recognize anyone particularly! apart from your fellow visitors.

the nonhumans do look delighted to see you, though; they look a lot like Paloma, in fact. the taller one in ceremonial armor speaks up first, in a languid sort of accent that once again sounds a bit like Paloma's. ]

Oh, it seems like we haven't scared all of them off, darling!

[ the shorter one laughs. they speak in a similar accent, but it also seems like... australian? ]

Oh, no, no, we're delightful company! If you think so you've got outstanding taste. It's just we've got a bit of a war on.

Between us and anyone from offworld who thinks they have a claim to treat Aruuv as theirs, of course. Which is to say, we're allies of the Honorable Lady Naarabot.

Oh okay. Yeah, that sounds like it'd be annoying having to deal with anyone like that.

[ who is "Lochaana Naarabot"? fushigi mystery~~~ ]

Oh, we're so glad you understand! If you wouldn't mind putting some aid toward our cause, we could make it worth your while.

Well, political aid could help us end this war amicably. I'm sure if Lochaana was here she'd be saying "swaying public opinion's a way of waging war, too," or something like that.

Oh. Yeah, that's true. Or at least, I've been told similar stuff before.

[In fact, many times.]

[ funny how that works out. ]

Well, if you have any influence in the realm of politics or high society, we'd be happy to trade you. A little sway can go a long way~

[ They will, as a couple, offer you a 1:1 trade of Politics or High Society influence toward influence in the categories of "the canals must flow," "all is fair in love and war," or "pride goeth before a fall." ]

[Oh. That even sounds MORE familiar. It's on the tip of his tongue . . . ]

Sure, we can trade 1 of the politics things for 1 of those. Variety is probably good I imagine.

Canals, huh...

They're the lifeblood of our very first planet! So if they must, they must, no matter what,don't you think?
