[Elloran is pacing a small room, complaining to someone just of screen, pink cloak flaring angrily behind him]

Its not as if he's much older than me. Seventy years, nothing more. And yet he treats me like a naive child. I've bested him in makrugh, yet he scorns my analysis and speaks ill behind my back.

And now this!

[A gilt invitation is thrown on a table]

He challenges me over a paltry little world. Claiming that he won't need a single soldier to destroy it no matter what my tactics.

Damn the man. Sacrificing a planet just to needle me. I won't let him destroy this world to satisfy his ego!

Perhaps there are other reasons to destroy it.

[elloran]

If that was the case, surely he would have chosen another world to target. This one is nothing special; no great exports, no tactical import, no irreplaceable landmarks...its just a little world. If there is a reason for his distaste, I cannot find it.

[gothams_reckoning]

Perhaps there are reasons beyond what you can see.

[elloran]

There must be, but I do not know what to look for.

[gothams_reckoning]

What was the nature of the challenge?

[elloran]

The challenge is to protect the world for one month.

[gothams_reckoning]

And how will you do so?

[elloran]

I don't know. That depends upon the tactics he chooses to use.

[tenminutes]

I'm with you, kick his ass.

[elloran]

Thank you. I intend to do my best. Even if he his my superior.

[tenminutes]

All the more reason to kick his ass.

[elloran]

He certainly is not fulfilling his duties according to the spirit of the law. For that alone he should be brought down.

[tenminutes]

In which case, you definitely have to.

[elloran]

I will do my best.

So why don't you just ****ing kill him?

[... dude. PINK cape?]

[elloran]

He is my superior and a fellow Inquestor. As such, he is both immortal and worthy of my respect.

[Hey, shimmer cloaks change colors with their wearers emotions. So its not always pink. And its alive, and symbiotic. Living of sweat and blood is metal...right?]

[thats_brutal]

immortal? Like... he's not gonna die?

[elloran]

Yes. Then again, so am I.

[thats_brutal]

Wait. Wait. Wait. [pause] Wait.










You're ****ing immortal?

[elloran]

Functionally, yes. I do not age, though I can be killed.
