[The video feed clicks on followed by a clatter and a happy meow; unfortunately the only view is of the Hold’s ceiling, but familiar voices of Sango and Kagura follow.]

Kirara, there you are! How long has it been?

Sango. [Kagura does not sound amused at all, a tone of distaste in her voice. She picks up the tablet, handing it over to Sango. Kagura’s not in normal attire; in fact, her hair is all done up with ornaments and she seems to be wearing a wedding dress, her face covered by a partly ripped up veil. ] It’s yours.

Oh? She must have turned it on accidentally. [Sango takes the tablet and looks into it; sporting a similar updo and dress, with Kirara perched on her shoulder, she gives Exsilium a faint, somewhat weary smile.] Well, hello, then. We just returned from a mission, actually. Are all of them really so frustrating?

Like you can talk. [Kagura gives Sango a glance. She’s been through hell and back, and Sango had it easy.] I want my clothing and my fan. I could kill someone right now. Kicking him in the groin wasn’t enough for me. [She addresses Sango.] Why couldn’t I kill him, again?

Because there are things he still needs to do that will ultimately lead to the defeat of the United Earth, supposedly. [She sounds dubious at best, but turns to the tablet.] Anyway, what did we miss?

((ooc: replies from both Kagura and Sango!))

If you are expecting to hear of new deaths or destruction, there has been none more than what we have already seen.

[taijiya]

Well, that's good, at least.

Re: [video]

[boundbyheart]

Okay, then what happened?

[video]

[mentore]

The Initiative has given us another mission, one of searching instead of destroying and fighting others. We have been ignored, and mostly hated, by those who are from this place. What you see now in the city are our efforts in rebuilding.

[video]

[taijiya]

So it's to help repair the relationships with the natives. Thank goodness.

[video]

[boundbyheart]

Did it work?

[video]

[mentore]

I fear not. It will take more than rebuilding to earn the trust of the natives once more.

[video]

[taijiya]

Of course, but it can't hurt.

Re: [video]

[boundbyheart]

Says you.

[video]

[mentore]

It's a noble cause, to be sure, but it will take time. Neither of you are hurt?

[video]

[taijiya]

No, we're fine. It wasn't a particularly violent mission.

Re: [video]

[boundbyheart]

It's was boring and painful.

[video]

[mentore]

I see you are both in agreement.

[video]

[taijiya]

Which is saying something, isn't it?

: [video]

[boundbyheart]

Considering everything, it should be.

[video]

[mentore]

What was your mission, if I may ask?

[video]

[taijiya]

We were supposed to convince a man to bet on one knight instead of another at a tournament.
