[ Soon after LILITH hands the decision to Outsiders, Ratio makes a post on the ocular network. ]

I hope you have all had ample time to rest from the aftermath of the kaiju's attack. However, it is time to turn our attention to the future. We have been given an opportunity to decide our next step.

1: Stay in Seoul and assist the city.
2: Chase after the escaped Imugi.

I imagine opinions may be divided on this front, so I would like to open the forum for discussion. Please state your choice and provide thorough reasoning for your decision. You will not convince anyone with a half-baked argument. You may respond to any comment as you please, but remember to stay civil and do not resort to derogatory or inflammatory comments. Should you break this rule, I will revoke your comment permissions.

Keep in mind that your choice will have a grave effect on the people of this planet. It is not one to be made lightly, so do not treat it with levity.

You may use the form below to keep your comment clear and easy to read.




[ ooc: This is meant to be a mingle text log! Feel free to comment on each other's posts, yadda yadda go wild! Also the form is only a recommendation, feel free to disregard Ratio's instructions and annoy him. ]

And that is exactly why the people in Seoul need us now.

By the time we return, there may no longer be people to save.

Humans abandoned their gods first and upon receiving stewardship of the world? They abused it. I really do not mind if you dislike me for reminding you of the difficult truth that we are working to save people who tortured their planet to the brink of death.

But, I have not abandoned them. I am saving humanity. 'Tis unfortunate for a bunch of individuals in a city on the brink, but that is how I see things. I will not simply overlook their evils while working to save them, is all.

You're right about that. And I have no problem doing either even if I think one choice is more correct. I hope the same's true for you as well.

If you don’t nourish that body, there’s no need to protect it. Food is priority above armor! But I am sure it will provide both for us and then some.

It doesn’t matter, even if that is likely. But, it expelled acid rain back on the other country we were on, and if the female is pregnant, she was probably looking for a place to nest.

Invasive, and aggressive. They become very territorial when trying to find a place for their offspring. It will kill us simply for being in the area it is in if we don’t act fast and strong.

Trying to reason with it is out of the question.

And what will they learn if we leave, and the kaiju returns because we did not do the job they asked us to do and ends up killing more?

You know what, that makes sense.

Food and armor, why not.

why would you eat a dragon do you not have regular food where you come from.

I am sure you have done all you can 👍. The reed bending in the wind survives better than the tree felled by the storm ⛈️🌳. The others shall learn this wisdom with time.

Do not presume me some human who has long lost touch with instinct 😤. I am well aware of the lengths one goes in defense of offspring.

I do not for a moment think the battle shall be easy, however that does not mean it is not our best chance. Allowing her to heal will only mean she is well rested and defending her young. This is more dangerous ☠️.

Well-put.

But I hope it's not too hard-earned a lesson.

[ Makima just made his entire a week. That's one of the phrases he's used! Someone else is using it now, that means he was right! Take that, everyone who's said he needs a phrase book! ]

It shall be up to the wise ones such as ourselves to guide them through it 👩‍🦰🤝🐉. Our own experience will soften the blows.

[ the underworld...



...


little does callisto know that zagreus, his "retainer" was also considered the prince of the underworld. hence, he doesn't know it these words were meant to be taken at face value. he seems to take a long time to respond before he eventually opts on sending the following.

By the underworld... is this perhaps some sort of metaphor? I am afraid I am not quite following, as much as I appreciate your respect for human life. [ couldn't relate. ]

Losing yourself, or losing your life?

[ he'd argue they were two different things, no? ]

Perhaps, or maybe you are simply experienced. Even I find it tiresome to react to same song and dance.
