  1. [05:43:07] Adrian Montbell says, "It's suspicious that she asked to be locked away."
  2. [05:43:13] Forte says, "Very."
  3. [05:43:17] Danbur asks, "Women, right?"
  4. [05:43:20] Adrian Montbell asks, "Do we have any truth potions?"
  5. [05:43:27] Danbur says, "Never really know what is going on with them."
  6. [05:43:40] Danbur asks, "Minte left, with our spire shards. Remember?"
  7. [05:43:47] Danbur says, "She was meant to be developing it."
  8. [05:43:52] Ausar Kesandri says, "Hmm."
  9. [05:43:54] Adrian Montbell says, "I was unaware."
  10. [05:44:06] Adrian Montbell says, "That is.. unfortunate."
  11. [05:44:08] Ausar Kesandri asks, "Is she in the cells right now?"
  12. [05:44:10] Danbur asks, "Did you send any of your work off?"
  13. [05:44:14] Danbur says, "Yes she is."
  14. [05:44:17] Danbur says, "Avalon's cell."
  15. [05:44:19] Adrian Montbell says, "I did, yes."
  16. [05:44:20] Ausar Kesandri says, "I'll go pay her a visit."
  17. [05:44:37] Ausar Kesandri says, "I'll see you all later."
  18. [05:44:44] Danbur asks, "Good to hear; how was getting it there?"
  19. [05:45:06] Adrian Montbell says, "My notes? By ship."
  20. [05:45:22] Adrian Montbell says, "There would be no other way to get them to Valmasia."
  21. [05:45:31] Danbur says, "Veyer told you to send everything. Not just your notes..."
  22. [05:45:42] Adrian Montbell says, "That -is- everything."
  23. [05:45:59] Danbur asks, "So, there is nothing else?"
  24. [05:46:06] Danbur would squint.
  25. (Danbur)

  27.  
  28. [05:46:20] Danbur says, "Nothing which should be in the mainland."
  29. [05:46:23] Adrian Montbell says, "The majority of our projects were in planning phases. As in, we didn't gather the materials to begin working on them yet."
  30. [05:47:13] Adrian Montbell says, "Notes, notes, and more notes. It is hard to develop much of anything when resources are being poured into a fish woman."
  31. [05:47:25] Aesperus slowly creeps back down the stairs.
  32. (Aesperus Kesandri)
  33. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  34.  
  35. [05:47:30] Danbur says, "We're called Sirenians."
  36. [05:47:34] Danbur says, "Not fish people."
  37. [05:47:41] Forte asks, "...What was that about?"
  38. [05:47:57] Adrian Montbell says, "Who knows? And yes, apologies. Sirenians."
  39. [05:48:02] Danbur asks, "So what of the materials you did manage to gather?"
  40. [05:48:03] Forte says, "Feth."
  41. [05:48:09] Danbur asks, "Were they sent also?"
  42. [05:48:51] Adrian Montbell says, "The materials being gathered are namely iron, steel. Other metals for the construction of a larger vessel."
  43. [05:49:08] Adrian Montbell says, "Valmasia has plenty of metal."
  44. [05:49:17] Adrian Montbell says, "If we live, we'll need it more."
  45. [05:50:01] Adrian Montbell says, "I've yet to hear from my Chief Apothecary in regards to alchemical ingredients."
  46. [05:50:29] Danbur says, "Do not lie to Danbur, it is common knowledge here amongst our Bulwark that you currently are holding a portion of our spire shards."
  47. [05:50:46] Danbur says, "Since the incident with Minte, we've been strict on them. That is what Veyer meant to send back."
  48. [05:50:56] Adrian Montbell says, "Veyer has had a change of heart."
  49. [05:51:04] Adrian Montbell says, "Bring up the issue with him, speak with him once again."
  50. [05:51:11] Adrian Montbell says, "There has been a change of plans."
  51. [05:51:21] Danbur asks, "So you admit lying to Danbur?"
  52. [05:51:34] Adrian Montbell says, "No. You asked me what materials I sent back."
  53. [05:51:44] Adrian Montbell says, "Parchment. Lots of it."
  54. [05:52:18] Danbur says, "You names materials you didn't send back, yet neglected to mention the shards."
  55. [05:52:28] Adrian Montbell says, "Because the shards are being used for something else."
  56. [05:52:56] Danbur says, "What else? Veyer made it clear that they should be sent back."
  57. [05:53:09] Adrian Montbell says, "As I said. Speak with him again."
  58. [05:53:35] Adrian Montbell says, "The details of what they are being used for are not common knowledge of of now for good reason."
  59. [05:53:45] Adrian Montbell says, "If he feels comfortable informing you, so be it. I certainly do not."
  60. [05:55:15] Danbur says, "Danbur does not care what you feel comfortable with. The fact of the matter is, you've been idle. In your estate. Doing nothing, why our people have been out there losing their body parts. Their lives, for our cause. You have given up nothing-- You do not deserve your title, nor do you deserve to decide what happens with the shards. Danbur knows you're a liar now, as you have lied to him once already."
  61. [05:55:25] Danbur says, "He finds it odd that Veyer would have such a rapid change of heart."
  62. [05:55:34] Adrian Montbell says, "Then he can speak to Veyer about it."
  63. [05:56:26] Adrian Montbell says, "I care little for your opinion, Danbur. You don't have a single clue what I've been doing. You don't know me in the slightest. Save me your catechizing. I owe you no explaination. I owe you nothing. "
  64. [05:56:55] Adrian Montbell says, "You've fought for this country? Splendid. I've fought too. Only I fight with a pen, slashing across parchment making new discoveries."
  65. [05:57:07] Danbur says, "Writing is not fighting."
  66. [05:57:09] Adrian Montbell says, "We are not all fighters."
  67. [05:57:10] Danbur says, "You are a coward."
  68. [05:57:15] Adrian Montbell says, "We were not all sent here to fight."
  69. [05:57:22] Danbur says, "'Champion of Focalar' who is scared to fight for his title."
  70. [05:57:22] Adrian Montbell says, "You are ignorant, and close-minded."
  71. [05:57:28] Danbur says, "Some champion you are."
  72. [05:57:33] Adrian Montbell says, "Yes, some I am."
  73. [05:57:37] Adrian Montbell asks, "Will that be all?"
  74. [05:57:56] Danbur says, "No. Danbur is not letting you leave here, till you can provide sufficient evidence."
  75. [05:58:15] Adrian places his hands forwards.
  76. (Adrian Montbell)
  77. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  78.  
  79. [05:58:18] Adrian Montbell says, "Then arrest me."
  80. [05:58:44] Adrian Montbell says, "Take me to Veyer, if you so desire. To the Vindicator. To a Redeemer, whatever you deem."
  81. [05:59:23] Glanced down towards the hands of the male.Before long, suppressing winds would overcome Adrian. Forcing him to the floor, where which. Danbur would finally bind his hands. Seems the Redeemer was going to come willingly after all.
  82. (Danbur)
  83. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  84.  
  85. [06:00:16] Danbur says, "You're more willing than Danbur would have assumed."
  86. [06:00:40] Adrian Montbell asks, "Is that so?"
  87. [06:00:48] Danbur says, "Yes. It is."
  88. [06:01:02] Danbur says, "Perhaps you aren't as untrustworthy as he assumed."
  89. [06:01:08] Adrian Montbell says, "Well, clearly you assumed wrong. I've mentioned it time and time again. I'm not a fighter."
  90. [06:01:15] Danbur says, "Perhaps."
  91. [06:01:34] Adrian Montbell says, "If you really believe yourself to have probable reason to warrant my arrest, to present me to the Deacon or the Vindicator, by all means."
  92. [06:01:37] Adrian Montbell says, "Bring me to one of them."
  93. [06:02:29] Adrian Montbell says, "I am the head of research and development. Focalar's Chosen is not a person who runs about waving his sword and bashing people with his shield. You confuse my position for a military rank."
  94. [06:02:43] Danbur shrugged, since the Montbell was now restrained and bound. Danbur would begin to go through his belongings. Looking specifically for the shards he had on him. After which, he'd store them in a garb and hold them in hand. He wanted to make sure that they went to the Deacon with now fowl play.
  95. (Danbur)
  96. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  97. [06:04:40] Danbur would find an assortment of notes, some coin, and a large tome strapped to his back. Maybe he felt some pigskins too? A grand invention, dedicated to intimate love making absent of the consequences that came with unexpected pregnancies.And a spire shard.
  98. (Adrian Montbell)
  99. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  100. [06:09:01] Adrian Montbell says, "Veyer is likely talking to Mai Lei."
  101. [06:09:13] Adrian Montbell asks, "In the dungeons of Avalon, no?"
  102. [06:09:21] Danbur says, "Indeed."
  103. [06:09:46] Adrian Montbell says, "Hm. Strange."
  104. [06:09:56] Danbur says, "Seems not. Well, eitherway. You're under arrest, so I'll toss you into a cell."
  105. [06:10:08] Adrian Montbell says, "If that is what you wish."
  106. [06:10:16] Adrian Montbell asks, "Though, what's your rank?"
  107. [06:10:29] Danbur says, "Acting Rampart."
  108. [06:10:37] Danbur says, "Whilst our current ones are, captured."
  109. [06:10:56] Danbur says, "Ooo. In fact."
  110. [06:11:07] Danbur says, "Aesperus may be able to help-- She is another Redeemer."
  111. [06:11:17] Adrian Montbell says, "She is."
  112. [06:11:24] Adrian Montbell asks, "Any idea where she might be?"
  113. [06:11:52] Danbur says, "Trying to think. Normally she is at Nerco-- But Danbur could have sworn she wasn't there."
  114. [06:12:13] Adrian Montbell asks, "The arena, perhaps?"
  115. [06:13:51] Danbur says, "Danbur will check Necro again."
  116. [06:13:59] Danbur says, "If she's not there, you'll sit in a cell."
  117. [06:14:37] Izel says, "Whe-"
  118. [06:14:42] Izel exclaims, "Danbuuur!"
  119. [06:14:42] Adrian Montbell says, "Greetings, Izel."
  120. [06:14:44] Mox says, "Hi there."
  121. [06:14:50] Danbur says, "Izel! Have you seen Miss Aesperus."
  122. [06:14:52] Izel whispers something.
  123. [06:14:58] Izel exclaims, "Mmm... Nope!"
  124. [06:15:00] Izel asks, "Why?"
  125. [06:15:02] Mox whispers something.
  126. [06:15:09] Mox says, "I saw her outside just a little while ago."
  127. [06:15:10] Danbur says, "Danbur needs her, to talk about something."
  128. [06:15:15] Mox says, "She might've gone to the arena."
  129. [06:15:17] Izel whispers something.
  130. [06:15:20] Adrian Montbell says, "Danbur believes me guilty of treason."
  131. [06:15:24] Izel asks, "Oh?"
  132. [06:15:27] Adrian Montbell says, "Indeed."
  133. [06:15:29] Izel says, "Then as a Rampart, it is my duty to come alone."
  134. [06:15:37] Adrian Montbell says, "I too, am surprised."
  135. [06:15:48] Danbur says, "You heard what Veyer said, 'send everything home'."
  136. [06:15:53] Izel says, "Is he not..."
  137. [06:15:55] Izel asks, "Complying?"
  138. [06:15:55] Danbur exclaims, "He was holding onto the most important things!"
  139. [06:15:58] Izel asks, "What?"
  140. [06:16:14] Adrian Montbell says, "I talked to Veyer about it, as I've told you many times before."
  141. [06:16:18] Danbur says, "Hmh. Danbur needs to see Miss Aesperus. Accompany him, Izel."
  142. [06:16:23] Izel says, "Right..."
  143. [06:16:26] Izel says, "We'll speak later, Moxotl."
  144. [06:16:27] Lupin exclaims, "OBJECTION!"
  145. [06:16:29] Danbur says, "You lied to Danbur twice, before you said that."
  146. [06:16:33] Danbur says, "Anything you say is a lie."
  147. [06:16:40] Izel says, "If you were here the entire time."
  148. [06:16:40] Adrian Montbell says, "Yes, yes. Of course it is."
  149. [06:16:42] Izel says, "I'm killing you."
  150. [06:16:52] Lupin says, "I WALKED INTO THIS ROOM JUST EARLIER BECAUSE YOU WERE ACTING WEIRD."
  151. [06:16:58] Izel says, "Forte..."
  152. [06:16:59] Adrian Montbell says, "That voice.."
  153. [06:17:01] Mox says, "Of course you did."
  154. [06:17:03] Izel says, "I'm."
  155. [06:17:04] Adrian Montbell says, "Ah, Forte."
  156. [06:17:08] Izel says, "Going to break you."
  157. [06:17:11] Izel says, "If you don't forget EVERYTHING."
  158. [06:17:17] Forte says, "Why is my fellow comrade being accu-"
  159. [06:17:19] Forte asks, "What?"
  160. [06:17:21] Izel says, "Or at the very least, keep your mouth shut."
  161. [06:17:27] Forte asks, "...-?"
  162. [06:17:30] Mox says, "I think you're misunderstanding something, Izel."
  163. [06:17:31] Izel exclaims, "Good!"
  164. [06:17:33] Izel says, "You got it down."
  165. [06:17:34] Izel exclaims, "Now!"
  166. [06:17:35] Izel exclaims, "Danbur!"
  167. [06:17:43] Izel asks, "What did Adrian do?"
  168. [06:17:52] Adrian Montbell says, "I lied to him, apparently."
  169. [06:17:55] Izel says, "What is he refusing to hand over/"
  170. [06:18:04] Danbur says, "Twice."
  171. [06:18:05] Mox says, "This isn't my business."
  172. [06:18:13] Danbur exclaims, "He hasn't been sending home, important things!"
  173. [06:18:15] Mox says, "I'm gonna go outside."
  174. [06:18:17] Izel whispers something.
  175. [06:18:19] Adrian Montbell says, "Which, of course, justifies my arrest. I was very much willing to rot in a cell on account of hurting his feelings."
  176. [06:18:20] Izel whispers something.
  177. [06:18:31] Danbur says, "Better than rotting in the ground."
  178. [06:18:34] Izel says, "It's not just hurting his feelings."
  179. [06:18:35] Mox smiles at Izel, before walking out.

  185. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  186.  
  187. [06:18:40] Forte exclaims, "Hm!"
  188. [06:18:51] Izel says, "If you aren't listening to the orders from Veyer, I see no reason for him not to arrest you."
  189. [06:19:02] Forte says, "But if he's discussed this with Veyer.."
  190. [06:19:04] Izel says, "We're securing the future of Valmasia first."
  191. [06:19:05] Forte asks, "What does he withhold-?"
  192. [06:19:19] Adrian Montbell says, "Veyer holds no authority over research and development. I've already discussed why I have a shard with Veyer."
  193. [06:19:25] Danbur says, "His defence is 'Veyer told me i can keep them'. Which isn't very believeable after he lied about having them."
  194. [06:19:26] Izel asks, "Shard..?"
  195. [06:19:28] Adrian Montbell says, "He is very much aware of why I have one."
  196. [06:19:29] Forte exclaims, "Oh, the shard!"
  197. [06:19:31] Izel says, "All shards should be sent back to Valmasia."
  198. [06:19:35] Forte says, "Izel, you misunderstand."
  199. [06:19:39] Danbur says, "Danbur has the shard, actually."
  200. [06:19:40] Danbur says, "Hmh."
  201. [06:19:41] Izel says, "No, you misunderstand."
  202. [06:19:45] Adrian Montbell asks, "He doesn't tell you two much anything, huh?"
  203. [06:19:45] Danbur says, "He is going to give it to Veyer."
  204. [06:19:48] Izel says, "Valmasia needs to know our expedition wasn't for nothing."
  205. [06:19:53] Forte says, "The shard was to be used for-"
  206. [06:19:59] Izel says, "Sending back shards is our top priority."
  207. [06:20:07] Adrian Montbell says, "They are confused, Forte. Ignorant towards the situation."
  208. [06:20:16] Forte says, "It also might be our only case toward eliminating Gao Deryu."
  209. [06:20:25] Danbur says, "He also called Danbur a fish."
  210. [06:20:28] Izel asks, "Is that so?"
  211. [06:20:29] Danbur says, "Which is not okay."
  212. [06:20:33] Izel says, "Enlighten us, Adrian."
  213. [06:20:41] Forte says, "There has been a plan made by Vindicator Tranen, under me."
  214. [06:20:43] Izel asks, "Why do you need a shard?"
  215. [06:21:03] Adrian Montbell says, "Veyer seemed reluctant to share the details with you. Why should I? And after such treatment? Good grief. You ought to take me out on a real date, first."
  216. [06:21:08] Danbur says, "Explain the plan, and maybe we will understand. Otherwise Danbur will follow through, as he normally would."
  217. [06:21:13] Forte says, "I can explain."
  218. [06:21:18] Forte says, "Allow me."
  219. [06:21:29] Adrian Montbell says, "If Veyer hasn't told them already, then I do not see why they need to know."
  220. [06:21:39] Izel says, "We didn't ask Veyer."
  221. [06:21:46] Izel says, "We simply heard him tell you to send everything back."
  222. [06:21:48] Danbur says, "Because Danbur would have been told, if he was present."
  223. [06:21:57] Izel says, "We're following those orders unless told otherwise."
  224. [06:21:59] Forte says, "They'll act irrational and arrest you despite it literally being our only out, so please."
  225. [06:22:02] Izel says, "Secrecy will get you nowhere."
  226. [06:22:17] Forte says, "Vindicator Tranen's plan was to weaponize the shard to entirely destroy Gao Deryu."
  227. [06:22:29] Adrian Montbell says, "It was /my/ plan, but that works too."
  228. [06:22:31] Forte says, "That is why it was not sent back."
  229. [06:22:35] Danbur says, "We'll act rational, on the infomation we have. It would be irrational to think 'secrets' means everything is fine."
  230. [06:22:37] Forte says, "The mission was given /to me/."
  231. [06:22:44] Adrian Montbell says, "Yeah, but /I/ told Tranen."
  232. [06:22:47] Adrian Montbell says, "After I told Veyer."
  233. [06:22:51] Adrian Montbell says, "You silly goof."
  234. [06:22:58] Forte says, "Chain of command, Adrian."
  235. [06:22:59] Forte says, "Chain of command."
  236. [06:23:26] Forte says, "But yes, this is a-"
  237. [06:23:30] Forte says, "...Oh, look."
  238. [06:23:31] Ausar Kesandri says, "Oh, there's everyone."
  239. [06:23:32] Aesperus Kesandri says, "Oh jeez this is crowded."
  240. [06:23:32] Izel exclaims, "There's Aesperus!"
  241. [06:23:33] Forte exclaims, "Ausar!"
  242. [06:23:33] Adrian Montbell says, "Ah, Aesperus. Ausar. My favorite couple."
  243. [06:23:39] Izel whispers something.
  244. [06:23:43] Ausar Kesandri says, "Hello."
  245. [06:23:43] Izel whispers something.
  246. [06:23:43] Aesperus Kesandri says, "Let me just... Slip back out."
  247. [06:23:46] Forte says, "Poor Danbur is trying to accuse-"
  248. [06:23:47] Danbur says, "Aesperus! There you are."
  249. [06:23:48] Forte says, "AESPERUS."
  250. [06:23:50] Ausar Kesandri says, "Uh..."
  251. [06:23:54] Forte says, "FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS 'HOLY, LASS."
  252. [06:23:55] Forte says, "STAY FOR ONCE."
  253. [06:23:58] Aesperus Kesandri asks, "What's happening?"
  254. [06:24:06] Izel says, "Adrian is being arrested for treason by Danbur."
  255. [06:24:07] Forte says, "Poor Danbur is trying to label someone as a traitor."
  256. [06:24:14] Ausar Kesandri asks, "Oh?"
  257. [06:24:18] Danbur says, "Not a traitor. Just not following orders."
  258. [06:24:21] Forte says, "Ausar, they mistake the plan."
  259. [06:24:24] Aesperus takes a step away from Forte.

  263. [06:24:29] Forte says, "As not following orders."
  264. [06:24:30] Aesperus Kesandri asks, "What's happened?"
  265. [06:24:41] Ausar Kesandri says, "Alright... Let's all calm down and start from the beginning."
  266. [06:24:50] Ausar Kesandri asks, "Danbur, what's going on?"
  267. [06:24:54] Izel says, "Veyer ordered Adrian to send all his plans back to Valmasia in the event we lose."
  268. [06:24:58] Izel says, "Adrian, is not complying."
  269. [06:25:04] Danbur says, "Everything back to Valmasia."
  270. [06:25:07] Adrian Montbell says, "Veyer told me to send everything back to Valmasia. I told him I would, and then hatched a plan with my researchers. We returned and proposed him an alternative. Veyer and Tranen agreed."
  271. [06:25:11] Danbur says, "Including the shards."
  272. [06:25:23] Danbur exclaims, "He is holding onto them, and lied to Danbur's face! After calling him a fish!"
  273. [06:25:28] Forte says, "The Vindicator then passed down the plan to me to enact once the project with it is complete."
  274. [06:25:31] Ausar Kesandri says, "What Adrian says is the truth, Danbur."
  275. [06:25:36] Forte says, "Aye."
  276. [06:25:39] Adrian Montbell says, "A plan which includes myself and my organization creating a weapon."
  277. [06:25:49] Ausar Kesandri says, "An alternative plan that's passed by the higher ups has been approved."
  278. [06:25:53] Aesperus Kesandri says, "A weapon? I'm interested."
  279. [06:25:57] Danbur grumbles in Sirenian.

  282.  
  283. [06:25:57] Aesperus Kesandri asks, "What's this plan?"
  284. [06:26:01] Adrian Montbell says, "I did not tell you for obvious reasons. One, you smell. Two, I was unaware Veyer or Tranen wanted me telling anyone else."
  285. [06:26:03] Forte says, "Not your business, strictly."
  286. [06:26:10] Danbur asks, "Did he say Danbur smells?"
  287. [06:26:11] Aesperus ' eye twitches.

  291. [06:26:11] Ausar Kesandri says, "Eh... She should know."
  292. [06:26:15] Aesperus Kesandri asks, "Not my business?"
  293. [06:26:21] Ausar Kesandri says, "Here. Aes, follow me."
  294. [06:26:21] Aesperus Kesandri says, "That sounds about right."
  295. [06:26:24] Danbur says, "Danbur challenges you for your rank of Redeemer."
  296. [06:26:30] Adrian Montbell says, "No."
  297. [06:26:32] Danbur says, "Honour battle."
  298. [06:26:34] Forte says, "That's not even a thing we can do anymore."
  299. [06:26:35] Adrian Montbell says, "I'm not a Redeemer."
  300. [06:26:44] Ausar Kesandri says, "Danbur, challenging for ranks is no longer allowed."
  301. [06:26:53] Aesperus Kesandri says, "Not until after this war is up."
  302. [06:26:53] Forte says, "Danbur, if you move into violence suddenly-"
  303. [06:26:54] Izel says, "Mmm..."
  304. [06:27:05] Aesperus Kesandri says, "Izel wants to combat me for my rank."
  305. [06:27:07] Danbur says, "Then Danbur is putting him in a cell. He cannot insult Danbur and get away with it."
  306. [06:27:08] Izel says, "No."
  307. [06:27:10] Izel says, "Not you anymore."
  308. [06:27:12] Aesperus Kesandri says, "It'll be allowed once things settle."
  309. [06:27:13] Izel says, "I'll just challenge Tranen."
  310. [06:27:17] Aesperus Kesandri says, "Cool."
  311. [06:27:19] Forte says, "What-"
  312. [06:27:21] Izel says, "You're... Too easy."
  313. [06:27:25] Adrian Montbell asks, "In a cell?"
  314. [06:27:33] Aesperus Kesandri says, "Don't lock the Champion of Focalar in a cell."
  315. [06:27:36] Forte exclaims, "Why are you all bloody selfish?!"
  316. [06:27:43] Ausar Kesandri says, "Gods."
  317. [06:27:48] Danbur says, "Yes. You, someone who has never shed a drop of blood for us-- Do not get to talk down to Danbur."
  318. [06:27:52] Adrian Montbell says, "None of them seem to understand that the title means."
  319. [06:28:03] Forte says, "Enough! The point is that, the plan is the plan, as said by Tranen, Adrian, and Veyer."
  320. [06:28:11] Izel says, "We can wait until Veyer is around then."
  321. [06:28:13] Aesperus Kesandri says, "Listen, Danbur, at least wait until Veyer and the Vindicator are here to clear this all up."
  322. [06:28:14] Forte says, "Enough of this trying to arrest researchers."
  323. [06:28:24] Izel says, "Until then, I believe it best to see Adrian under house arrest back on the Estate."
  324. [06:28:26] Danbur says, "They can clear it up, when he is in a cell."
  325. [06:28:28] Forte says, "We're at our final hours and people go mad, by the gods."
  326. [06:28:41] Danbur says, "Apologise. Now."
  327. [06:28:56] Ausar Kesandri says, "Just apologize so we can get this over with."
  328. [06:29:00] Ausar sighs.

  331.  
  332. [06:29:10] Adrian Montbell asks, "No. You want to arrest me for saying you smell? Are you a child?"
  333. [06:29:32] Izel exclaims, "He also believes you're a traaaiitor!"
  334. [06:29:32] Aesperus Kesandri says, "Alright, enough of this you two."
  335. [06:29:37] Danbur says, "Danbur suggests you all leave."
  336. [06:29:38] Aesperus Kesandri says, "Shut up, Izel."
  337. [06:29:40] Adrian Montbell says, "Yes, he does."
  338. [06:29:41] Izel says, "No."
  339. [06:29:43] Izel says, "I won't."
  340. [06:29:49] Aesperus ' eye twitches once more.

  343.  
  344. [06:29:50] Adrian Montbell asks, "But apparently so do you, Izel?"
  345. [06:29:53] Adrian Montbell says, "I must say, I'm hurt."
  346. [06:29:55] Izel says, "I don't."
  347. [06:30:02] Adrian Montbell says, "I don't believe you."
  348. [06:30:02] Izel says, "I'm simply repeating what Danbur is saying."
  349. [06:30:06] Adrian Montbell says, "Wh-"
  350. [06:30:08] Izel exclaims, "What I do believe!"
  351. [06:30:10] Izel says, "Is you're being foolish."
  352. [06:30:22] Ausar Kesandri says, "..."
  353. [06:30:27] Forte says, "A fair opinion, but we cannot change orders."
  354. [06:30:31] Adrian Montbell says, "Me? He's the one trying to arrest me for doing my job."
  355. [06:30:39] Aesperus Kesandri says, "No one is being arrested."
  356. [06:30:43] Adrian Montbell says, "I'm simply humoring him."
  357. [06:30:45] Forte says, "Aye."
  358. [06:30:47] Izel says, "Your job, from what we were told! Is to send everything back to Valmasia."
  359. [06:30:52] Izel exclaims, "This is why secrecy only hurts everyone!"
  360. [06:31:03] Izel says, "Now we have misunderstanding."
  361. [06:31:04] Adrian Montbell says, "It was, at the time. But plans changed."
  362. [06:31:20] Adrian Montbell says, "And I was unaware Tranen or Veyer wanted me telling anyone else."
  363. [06:31:25] Adrian Montbell says, "So naturally, I am not going to tell anyone."
  364. [06:31:32] Forte says, "It is a rather information sensitive plan."
  365. [06:31:37] The occultic winds slowly began to flood around the merman. His mood clearly being shown to everyone around-- He was not happy at all. Afraid of no one within this room.

  368.  
  369. [06:31:43] Izel says, "Then, we're simply meant to go on your word alone."
  370. [06:31:43] Adrian Montbell says, "Yes, it very much is."
  371. [06:31:47] Izel says, "Instead of what we heard directly from Veyer."
  372. [06:31:50] Izel exclaims, "You could be lying!"
  373. [06:31:50] Forte says, "...The word alone."
  374. [06:31:56] Izel says, "It's a difficult situation."
  375. [06:31:59] Adrian Montbell asks, "What reason do I have to lie?"
  376. [06:32:00] Izel says, "Unless you tell everyone the specifics."
  377. [06:32:02] Izel says, "Mmm..."
  378. [06:32:03] Aesperus Kesandri says, "We can come up with an easy solution."
  379. [06:32:06] Izel asks, "Spire shards are powerful?"
  380. [06:32:10] Izel says, "That's one reason."
  381. [06:32:11] Forte says, "Of a Redeemer, a Champion, an Avenger, and a Rampart."
  382. [06:32:27] Adrian Montbell says, "They are. But I do not have the resources to make anything out of a spire shard without the assistance of my researchers."
  383. [06:32:29] Forte says, "Why the hell would we lie."
  384. [06:32:39] Izel exclaims, "I'unno!"
  385. [06:32:45] Danbur says, "Apologise. Now."
  386. [06:32:45] Forte exclaims, "EXACTLY, IZEL!"
  387. [06:32:50] Izel says, "Maybe you have your own motives to usurp Valmasian leaders? Which I would be forced to stop, obviously."
  388. [06:32:57] Izel says, "You are all, need I remind you."
  389. [06:33:00] Forte exclaims, "I DON'T CARE ABOUT LEADERSHIP!"
  390. [06:33:02] Ausar Kesandri says, "Hell, with the way you're acting we could bring you lot to Veyer and even if he told you of the alternate plan, you'd still call him a liar."
  391. [06:33:04] Izel says, "Have close ties with Adrian."
  392. [06:33:11] Forte exclaims, "I'm just doing my bloody assignment!"
  393. [06:33:16] Izel says, "Shshshsh..."
  394. [06:33:23] Izel says, "It is your relationships with Adrian that make this difficult."
  395. [06:33:39] Izel says, "Of course we wouldn't."
  396. [06:33:41] Aesperus Kesandri says, "There's an easy solution for all of this if you all would stop speaking for a second."
  397. [06:33:41] Forte says, "No, it is not."
  398. [06:33:47] Ausar Kesandri asks, "Do I have to go look for Veyer?"
  399. [06:33:52] Forte says, "Get. Veyer."
  400. [06:33:52] Izel says, "Please, do."
  401. [06:33:52] Adrian Montbell says, "Ah, yes. This /is/ of course, a coup Izel. Ausar, Aesperus and Forte are going to be my new sworn lords and ladies once I declare myself the King of Agartha."
  402. [06:33:53] Ausar Kesandri asks, "Have him slap some sense into you?"
  403. [06:34:05] Izel exclaims, "Tarquin!"
  404. [06:34:06] Forte says, "Fucking."
  405. [06:34:07] Forte says, "Please."
  406. [06:34:08] Izel says, "Finally, someone I trust."
  407. [06:34:08] Ausar Kesandri says, "Adrian, I'd assassinate you."
  408. [06:34:12] Forte says, "I would too,."
  409. [06:34:23] Izel says, "Adrian... You're..."
  410. [06:34:24] Tarquin Brubeck says, "Oh. I was hoping to politely wait until a dramatic entrance moment..."
  411. [06:34:25] Izel says, "Not helping yourself."
  412. [06:34:32] Adrian Montbell says, "They're all behaving like children. I will behave like one too."
  413. [06:34:33] Izel exclaims, "Next to me, Tarquin. Pleaaase!"
  414. [06:34:35] Izel says, "i'll fill you in."
  415. [06:34:38] Ausar Kesandri says, "Oh! Tarquin. Perfect timing."
  416. [06:34:45] Aesperus Kesandri says, "You all are behaving like children."
  417. [06:34:45] Ausar Kesandri says, "There's a misunderstanding you need to solve."
  418. [06:34:47] Adrian Montbell says, "Ah, good evening Tarquin."
  419. [06:34:51] Forte says, "Sir, Tarquin-"
  420. [06:34:53] Tarquin Brubeck says, "Hello, Adrian."
  421. [06:34:55] Izel whispers something.
  422. [06:35:00] Izel whispers something.
  423. [06:35:06] Adrian Montbell asks, "Tell me, Tarquin. Can I ask you something?"
  424. [06:35:07] Izel whispers something.
  425. [06:35:10] Aesperus Kesandri says, "At times like these I really should start using my magic to enforce myself."
  426. [06:35:15] Izel whispers something.
  427. [06:35:16] Tarquin Brubeck says, "Ask away."
  428. [06:35:18] Izel whispers something.
  429. [06:35:22] Forte says, "Oh, boy, Aesperus callin' people children. Whatever."
  430. [06:35:28] Forte says, "Keep the thoughts, this will be resolved."
  431. [06:35:30] Adrian Montbell asks, "Does Veyer, a Deacon of the Grey Crurch, have authority over what I do as the head of the research and development?"
  432. [06:35:38] Izel whispers something.
  433. [06:35:39] Aesperus takes in a deep breath.

  450. [06:36:06] Tarquin Brubeck says, "No, but the idea that we should send the research home is not a bad one, in the event of the worst happening."
  451. [06:36:13] Adrian Montbell says, "There is your answer."
  452. [06:36:23] Tarquin Brubeck asks, "Why do you not want to?"
  453. [06:36:24] Adrian Montbell says, "Even if he order me to do so and I said no, you'd have no reason to arrest me."
  454. [06:36:25] Izel says, "These were the original orders from Veyer."
  455. [06:36:27] Aesperus Kesandri says, "Call me if you need me, I'll be watching the gate for the time being."
  456. [06:36:48] Izel whispers something.
  457. [06:36:51] Raroc Pashyak says, "Mm, figured."
  458. [06:36:55] Izel whispers something.
  459. [06:36:57] Raroc Pashyak says, "It looked like a... bad time."
  460. [06:37:00] Izel whispers something.
  461. [06:37:11] Adrian Montbell says, "Mind you, I was willing to see through with Veyer's plan. But myself and my peers came up with an alternative. One Veyer and Tranen both agreed too. It is, as Forte mentioned, an information sensetive plan."
  462. [06:37:21] Izel says, "We have heard no orders from either of them."
  463. [06:37:26] Izel asks, "Have you heard of these orders, Tarquin?"
  464. [06:37:33] Forte says, "Hence information sensitive..."
  465. [06:37:33] Tarquin Brubeck says, "Well there's no one more sensitive to information than me, so..."

  470. [06:38:07] Not good enough.Danbur's hand, placed against the clothing of Adrian; his grasp tightening somewhat across his clothing-- Following which, he'd toss the man across the room. All the while, the spire shard he had confiscated from Adrian was in his opposing hand."Danbur said Apologise. He will not ask again." The merman was seething, one would say steam could be seen coming atop of his head.

  476. [06:38:21] Izel says, "Adrian also called Danbur a fish."
  477. [06:38:23] Izel says, "I left that out..."
  478. [06:38:25] Izel says, "So he's quite heated."
  479. [06:38:30] Tarquin Brubeck says, "Oh. Oh, Adrian..."
  480. [06:38:33] Tarquin Brubeck says, "Apologize."
  481. [06:38:39] Tarquin Brubeck says, "That's very rude."
  482. [06:38:51] Ausar Kesandri says, "Aye. Apologizing would literally defuse the situation right now."
  483. [06:39:01] Ausar Kesandri says, "We don't need to fight amongst ourselves."
  484. [06:39:07] Tarquin Brubeck says, "ESPECIALLY not now."
  485. [06:39:09] Adrian Montbell says, "I said he smelled. I did not call him a fish. I called Minte a fish woman prior. He corrected me, and I apologized then and called him by the proper name."
  486. [06:39:41] Adrian Montbell says, "But no, I in fact, have not called him a fish."
  487. [06:39:48] Izel says, "Words can get twisted in heated moments..."
  488. [06:39:53] Izel says, "Apologizing would clear this entire mess up."
  489. [06:39:54] Danbur says, "That does not sound like an apology."

  497. [06:40:09] Adrian Montbell says, "I am not going to apologize for saying you smell."
  498. [06:40:13] Izel says, "I told him we want to send it back to Valmasia."
  499. [06:40:14] Tarquin Brubeck says, "Adrian."
  500. [06:40:17] Forte says, "--"

  503. [06:40:30] Forte exclaims, "That is for the entire plan against Gao Deyru, Izel!"
  504. [06:40:31] Izel says, "Oh no.."

  534. [06:42:04] Izel says, "Really not making this easy."
  535. [06:42:04] Ausar Kesandri exclaims, "Adrian, just fucking SAY SORRY!"
  536. [06:42:05] Forte exclaims, "So enough, all of you!"
  537. [06:42:23] Tarquin Brubeck says, "ADRIAN PLEASE STOP TALKING UNLESS IT'S AN APOLOGY, PLEASE. FOR THE SAKE OF SANITY."
  538. [06:42:49] Adrian Montbell asks, "I'm stating this for the sake of progression. Why is he being trusted to lead batteries of men and women through battle if he's willing to kill someone for saying, 'you smell'?"
  539. [06:42:53] Izel says, "You're even losing Tarquins support now...."
  540. [06:42:58] Forte says, "ADRIAN."
  541. [06:43:01] Forte says, "BOY, I WILL SMACK YOU."
  542. [06:43:02] Izel says, "This isn't helping."
  543. [06:43:06] Forte says, "FUCKING SAY SORRY."
  544. [06:43:36] Adrian Montbell says, "I cannot apologize for an objective truth. Every single thing has a scent."
  545. [06:43:43] Tarquin Brubeck says, "..."
  546. [06:43:43] Adrian Montbell says, "I stated, explicitly: he had a smell."
  547. [06:43:50] Izel says, "That's not what you said..."
  548. [06:43:59] Ausar Kesandri says, "Adrian. You're acting like a smartass."
  549. [06:44:04] Izel rubs his head...
  550. (Izel)
  551. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  552.  
  553. [06:44:16] Adrian Montbell says, "Yes, I am. For good reason."
  554. [06:44:24] Tarquin Brubeck whispers something.
  555. [06:44:27] Tarquin Brubeck says, "Please."
  556. [06:44:36] Forte exclaims, "Don't hurt him at all!"
  557. [06:44:48] Forte exclaims, "We bloody need him for the plan against Gao Deyru, if you fucking--!"
  558. [06:45:53] Adrian Montbell asks, "This whole ordeal is ridiculous. Satire is used to bring about change. That is what I am doing. Progression, development. Those are the attributes I stand for. If we allow a man like this, who cannot keep his head cool over something as menial as an objective truth to lead our men into battle, what does that say about our military?"
  559. [06:46:15] Adrian Montbell asks, "Are we Gehennans? Brutes?"
  560. [06:46:25] Adrian Montbell says, "Ah, yes. Let's give the most angry person the right to lead."
  561. [06:46:29] Izel whispers something.
  562. [06:46:52] Ausar pinches the bridge of his nose.
  563. (Ausar Kesandri)
  564. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  565. [06:47:34] The merman's arm, extended out not really giving much thought about what was going to come next. In truth, he didn't want the blood of a Redeemer on his hands-- Despite his ability to best the majority of them in single combat. Still, this disrespect could not go unattended to.Before long, the Sirenian's arm was coated in a vortex of occultic winds. Which consumed his armour up towards roughly where his shoulder blade was. It was quite a common attack from Danbur. A wind enhanced punch, one which would have found it's home in the midrift of Adrian. Due to the man's being a man of books rather than a man of the blade-- he'd subsequently been fired off into the nearby wall. Swatted like the mere fly he was.Danbur would not follow up this assault mind you, instead he'd stop. Glaring down towards Adrian."Last chance."
  566. (Danbur)
  567. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  568. [06:51:01] A flurry of wind reinforced by water and lightning encased the scholar. He moved a few inches back, but not far enough to the point where he was thrown against the wall. He stood with his arms crossed around his chest, quickly dispelling the protective grouping of elements.He was no warrior. He boasted no degree of skill with the sword. But as Evan had once said, there were going to be times where he couldn't be there to protect him. Apparently he had potential as a magi, too? Fitting, that he decided to utilize a the mixture of elements utilized by his patron."For what?"
  569. (Adrian Montbell)
  570. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  571.  
  572. [06:51:13] Izel says, "Oh no."
  573. [06:52:06] Adrian Montbell says, "I am not going to fight one of my own countryman. That is.. well."
  574. [06:52:10] Adrian Montbell asks, "That is, treason, isn't it?"
  575. [06:53:48] LOOC - Danbur: [give the shard to tarq
  576. [06:53:56] Aesperus Kesandri asks, "Is everything being taken care of in there?"
  577. [06:53:58] LOOC - Tarquin Brubeck: [he did]
  578. [06:54:01] LOOC - Danbur: [oic
  579. [06:54:39] Adrian Montbell says, "I'd certainly hope so, dear Aesperus."
  580. [06:55:10] Aesperus Kesandri asks, "It sure as hell doesn't sound like it, is there a fight about to be broken out?"
  581. [06:55:25] Adrian Montbell says, "No, dear. I simply did not want to get thrown against a wall."
  582. [06:55:36] Aesperus Kesandri says, "Thrown against a wall."
  583. [06:55:39] Ausar Kesandri says, "No fights yet but... It might get bad."
  584. [06:55:41] Aesperus Kesandri says, "Yep, comin' back in there."
  585. [06:55:56] Aesperus Kesandri says, "Just a moment, Raroc. You may want to stand back."
  586. [06:59:39] Seeing this repeatedly escalate, Tarquin did his best to interpose himself between the sirenian death machine and the champion of nerds. He did what he did best: Talk fast, tap dance on that avalanche, and hope it all worked out."Danbur? Now, Danbur, I understand why you're frustrated he's being an obstiante tit and you've slapped him around a bit, alright. I understand. Please, please, PLEASE let's just chalk it up to spending a calendar year locked in a room alone with books. It rots the brain! He's addled from a social standpoint! I'm asking you, not telling you. For me. Please." With that, he turned quickly to Adrian. His face was a rictus of panic, mouth puckered, he rasped out his words through clenched teeth."Adrian this is not the time for social commentary tensions are high as it is and we are possibly facing a mass murder we will be on the wrong side of we do not need this.""Please. Please. Just apologize, I know you know what 'you smell' means and pedantry is not the optimal course right now. Can we please de-escalate? Please? I've never done anything to hurt you, why must you wound me?"
  587. (Tarquin Brubeck)
  588. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  589. [07:08:28] It would seem that Danbur's attack was repelled by the scholar? Perhaps he had underestimated the man. Still, that wouldn't happen again-- The vortex once again materializing around his arm once more. This time much more fierce, the winds hitting speeds far above the previous one. However-- Something caught the merman's eyes. Tarquin.For a brief moment, Danbur would have even felt guilt. Not for what had happened currently, but for something completely unrelated. It was this feeling, which lead to him listening to the Neries' words in the first place. Something which was a miracle in itself. Slowly, but surely-- the occultic winds, capable of ripping straight through the torso of your average magi dispersed. Finally he'd speak to the Cardinal."He is being a tit. You are right. Danbur has not slapped him around enough, it would seem. However, considering you have asked me personally Danbur will let this go. On one condition. Once the war is done, and everything is sorted out. He will be replaced by someone worthy of the rank of Champion of Focalar." he'd affirm, softly.People used to think Danbur was unreasonable-- and despite what he had just demanded; it was reasonable from the Sirenian. After all, the last meetings between him and higher ups lead to much more malignant deals being struck.
  590. (Danbur)
  591. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  592.  
  593. [07:11:09] "Yes, Tarquin. That is precisely right. We are on the verge of mass murder. On the verge of utter destruction. We could very well lose everything we’ve built here. Veyer told me as much not too long ago. It took some convincing, but he managed to persuade me to send my research and the materials I had gathered back to the homeland." Adrian’s composure did not change. He was either very good at retaining himself or completely oblivious to the malevolent creature standing before him."I was ready to do as much, and requested my researchers to aid me in the movement of our supplies. Then I came up with an idea. Once that my associates supported, one that was proposed as an alternative to what Veyer had initially suggested. One he himself would go onto support, and one the Vindicator would approve of. One that would increase our chances of survival and ensure that we do not succumb to the combined wrath that comes hand in hand with an unfavorable outcome." He paused, offering a glance towards Tarquin, Ausar and Forte. Then to Izel. Soon after his eyes were fixed onto the man before him who seemed intent on killing him."The information regarding this alternative is sensitive information. The Vindicator has only told Forte because she is directly involved in the plan itself. Tarquin was next on my bucket list, but after that? I had no plans on telling anyone. Which is why I did not tell Danbur who, for one reason or another, believes the Deacon holds charge over what I do in my respective field. Need I remind you it is a triumvirate for a reason? The Bulwark does not control the Grey Crunch. The Grey Church does not control the Galeford Research Association." He looked towards Izel in particular, who seemed to believe the military held precedence over everything else."I will not bite my tongue. This is unacceptable."
  594. (Adrian Montbell)
  595. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  596.  
  597. [07:14:24] Well -- There was almost certainly no reason to deny Danbur such a request.Waiting until the war had ended seemed the only logical solution to all of this. Despite everything Adrian was doing, despite his actions being nothing more than something to bring about what could be demise to Valmasia still he was allowed to roam freely. Gently nodding his head at the words of this Selkie, his gaze now only shifted between both Adrian and Tarquin alike as if expecting them to say something. Expecting one of them to deny this request that had been pushed forwards not only by Danbur, but almost claimed by Izel just the very same."The rules are challenges comes after this war. If Adrian wishes to make himself enemies with Danbur, I say we allow them to settle this after these assaults upon us are handled." He finally spoke as teeth sank into the lower lips of this Gehennan just as Adrian spoke. It was expected, that much was obvious of how he wanted only to fight the actions of those who stood at the pinnacle of strength while he continued to meddle with devices and machinery that had brought nothing to Valmasia in times of war quite yet."Until then..? Adrian should be kept at his Estate until this entire ordeal has calmed down. As he is now, he seems irrational."Talking through the man that stood in this room alongside them, gaze entirely focused upon Tarquin for his own decision.
  598. (Izel)
  599. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  600. [07:22:03] "I mean, we had already tried to set in motion plans to appropriately challenge for the position, so..." He looked at Adrian and shrugged!"Regardless, Adrian, we are at war. This right here? The Necropolis? It is the War Front. A stone's throw from Avalon! You wish to challenge the War administration's representatives while we are at war at the war front? It's not... It's not wise, is all!" He wanted to shake the man like a baby and just scream, his hands idly clenching and unclenching in grasping motions idly as he spoke."You spoke to Veyer, and he agreed to another plan. Okay. It's okay, that's fine. Everything is fine. We," and with this he would take Adrian by the shoulder, "We are going to go discuss this plan, in private, due to its confidential nature. Okay? Everything is fine. We'll sort it all out."
  601. (Tarquin Brubeck)
  602. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  603.  
  604. [07:22:52] Ausar sighs heavily in relief. It seems as if the crisis of someone dying today was avoided. "Oh thank Azrael..." He said in a relieved tone.
  605. (Ausar Kesandri)
  606. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  607.  
  608. [07:23:26] Aesperus is more or less just there, kinda angry.
  609. (Aesperus Kesandri)
  610. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  611.  
  612. [07:23:27] Izel says, "Tarquin, I would like to request both myself and Danbur are at whatever meeting occurs when we speak to Veyer."
  613. [07:23:33] Izel says, "Considering the secrecy..."
  614. [07:23:34] Izel says, "It hurts us all."
  615. [07:23:46] Danbur says, "Danbur would like to hear what Veyer has to say, also."
  616. [07:23:53] Adrian Montbell says, "I want him stripped of his position, Tarquin."
  617. [07:24:08] Aesperus Kesandri asks, "These kinds of plans are talking of a weapon, correct?"
  618. [07:24:19] Danbur says, "Funny."
  619. [07:24:22] Adrian Montbell says, "But alas, that is Tranen's field. I will made a whole-hearted suggestion."
  620. [07:24:33] Adrian Montbell says, "Is it? I too, though you claiming me to be unfit, was funny."
  621. [07:24:40] Danbur says, "Rank means little to Danbur, red-haired man."
  622. [07:24:47] Danbur says, "Danbur is the strongest person in this room."
  623. [07:24:52] Izel side eyes...
  624. (Izel)
  625. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  626. [07:25:09] Adrian Montbell says, "I suppose you are hypocrite, then. He who would go and call me a coward for not fighting because it was my duty as the Champion."
  627. [07:25:11] Danbur says, "Danbur beat Tranen herself, do not test him."
  628. [07:25:49] Ausar Kesandri says, "Anyways... Now that the situation has de-escalated. I'm going to step away."
  629. [07:25:49] Danbur asks, "Hypocrite?"
  630. [07:26:02] Danbur asks, "Why because Danbur fights?"
  631. [07:26:05] Ausar Kesandri says, "I'll bid you all a farewell."
  632. [07:26:11] Izel says, "Mmm.."
  633. [07:26:13] Aesperus Kesandri says, "I'll catch up with you later, Ausar."
  634. [07:26:16] Adrian Montbell says, "No, no. You don't seem to understand what the word means."
  635. [07:26:34] Tarquin Brubeck says, "Oh my god no bye."
  636. [07:26:38] Adrian Montbell says, "You claim not to care for rank, but earlier you made a big deal about how I wasn't adhering to myr rank as per your specifications."
  637. [07:26:50] Adrian Montbell says, "*my"
  638. [07:26:51] Tarquin grabs Adrian by the wrist and forcibly drags him out of the room
  639. (Tarquin Brubeck)
  640. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  641.  
  642. [07:26:52] Danbur says, "Danbur does not care about rank."
