Dust and blood

[Anastasia]

"Then let's make our choices and begin," Dolmaya agrees after a few moments of thought.

[Iron Dragoon]

"Well, I've made my suggestions."

[Anastasia]

You're the on in charge here, so feel free to make your move.

[Iron Dragoon]

Yeah, but this is a tactical decision. More than I should have input.

Alyssa calls for the others, We've got a list of possible enemies we can instigate towards Rumza. Emily there's one in particular you might be interested in, but I want some tactical input on the choices.

[Anastasia]

Emily considers, "I like the paladin and...well, mostly the paladin," she admits.

Jarem paces as he thinks, "Forget the Umberlants, not worth the headache. The others can work."

[Iron Dragoon]

"That was about my take. Alright, Emily, find the paladin. Figure out who he serves and lets make sure we're not putting our hand in the fire with him. Anyone have experience or contacts that can help with Entemoch and Sunnis or the Karami?"

[Anastasia]

Headshakes before, "I know a few people in Earth, but not the right people. We're going in without that, so when in doubt, be brazen enough to make a cold introduction." Bastian advises.

[Iron Dragoon]

"Who wants to take which then? I didn't do so well with the last archomental I met."

[Anastasia]

Bastian just chuckles before, "I'll see you after Earth," he says, walking away and gone.

"That answers that," Jarem says, "I'll check out the dao family, see if they're reliable and worth it."

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa nods and turns to Dolmaya, "Other ideas to look into?"

[Anastasia]

"For now? Take a short rest and let others work," She says, "A chance to clear our minds before more information comes."

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa nods and stretches a bit, "How's Alihana coming along?"

[Anastasia]

"She learns like a mule," Is Dolmaya's answer, "Both in pace and in the tenacity that she stays with it when provoked."

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa snorts, "As far as pace... I think it may be a matter of presentation, how are you giving her the work?"

[Anastasia]

At this a pause.

Hello, Alyssa.
