Rade-

[A Knight from the Upper World has been sent to interfere with my plans. Deal with him so that he is no longer a threat. I enclose a description. Do not underestimate a Knight of Elemia. If you cannot deal with this, I will be forced to step in.]

Clancy-

[I am growing stronger day by day. Wait a bit longer, and we will be ready to move. But be warry-old friends have noticed our preparations. Rade has been assigned to deal with their agent, but do nothing to attract suspicion.]

Oh, dear. This looks private.

[In text, no one can see your true feelings.]

[former_endboss]

Oh quite. It's going to be quite a bit harder to coordinate my revolution from my prison cell if every missive I send out at great risk is monitored and intercepted. Not that anyone from my world is on the system, but Operational Security is nonetheless compromised.

[embersandashes]

A revolution?

Interesting. What's going on?

[former_endboss]

What is going on is that I'm going to overthrow the slave-keepers, the two-faced politicians, and all who side with them from misplaced sentimentality. I nearly finished the last time. She can't keep me in here forever, and there's no way she can stop me again once I'm free.

This world is on the brink of collapse, and it needs an active leader with a plan to prevent it's total destruction. And that's no exaggeration.

[embersandashes]

I know the feeling.

What are your qualifications? Are you a leader yourself, or just a concerned citizen?

[Azula has no love for citizen-run revolutions or rebellions]

[former_endboss]

I was a slave, a weapons system pointed at enemies external and internal. Now I turn my skill at destruction against those who made me. And I very nearly completed the work the last time I attempted this.

[embersandashes]

Are you living, or a robot?

[former_endboss]

Hmmm. It is hard to say. Reyvateils all blur the line between artificial and 'the real deal' but I take it a step farther by virtue of my extreme and unnatural age. 'Undead' is such a crude term, but it may have some accuracy-what else would you call a bodiless soul that still lives on?

[embersandashes]

Not necessarily someone I'd want leading my rebellion.

Then again, your world is likely a lot different from the one I originally come from.

[former_endboss]

Well, it's my rebellion. So you don't get to decide that here.

[embersandashes]

And I won't try to.

Upper World? Knight of Elemia? Why's that guy's hair so side-spiky?

[former_endboss]

And you have my thanks for that.

[former_endboss]

Hair styling? Does that matter at all really?

[embersandashes]

I don't think I've ever gotten your name.

[former_endboss]

I haven't gotten yours either. But I am Mir_teiwaz_ArTonelico.

Watch him just focus on the hair and casually ignore the whole omnious message thing :V

[pathofthorns]

Its the most notable thing about that guy. I mean, it looks like its some kind of a tiny dog thing on his head! You really don't see that kind of hair outside of RPGs, really.

It is very stupid hair.

[former_endboss]

It's a stupid hairdo for a stupid man. I don't see any reason to worry about it beyond that level of analysis.

Its roots are in his brain.

[pathofthorns]

Its just kind of weird seeing RPG hair be on an actual person.

[Magic? Trans-dimensional communities? Kamen Rider invasion? All acceptable.
JRPG hair? WTF THIS MAKES NO SENSE]

THERE ISN"T MUCH ELSE THERE :D

[former_endboss]

I've seen stranger. There's a girl with little drums in her hairdoo on the security feeds.

Its also managed to seep bleach into his brain.

[pathofthorns]

That's pretty strange too. It really sounds like your world's got some very...exotic hairdos.

That explains so much...

[former_endboss]

It's pretty strange even for us, but yes I suppose we do.

He's so not a natural blonde despite acting like a stereotypical blonde

[pathofthorns]

I guess things really are different then.

So...what's with the rest of it then?

[embersandashes]

Azula.

How do you pronounce that?

(And here is some audio for you)

[former_endboss]

Mir_teiwaz_Artonelico. A human may have trouble detecting all the nuance, but I will understand.
