It's hard to tell the ones who are here why I'd be blind to the ELysian thing. They don't get it.

[mrngstr]

I know.

I didn't get any satisfaction out of tricking you, or anyone else in Morningstar. It was just what had to be done.

[vns]

I can see the difference between an act of desperation and an act of trickery.

Cassius shows a very good divide on those.

[mrngstr]

Yeah, he does, doesn't he.

[vns]

Unfortunately.

[mrngstr]

Well, let's start working on transferring some operatives here from other cities. Or did you want to address the Displaced about that first?

[vns]

Look into transfers. I'll start things on my end.

[mrngstr]

Got it.

[vns]

One more thing.

The ruthless actions. The brutality and seeking out weapons.

Was that on your orders?

[mrngstr]

No, not directly.

As you know, different branches of Morningstar were led by different people. They varied in their approaches and what they thought was acceptable to reach their goals.

It was never supposed to seem like I was in charge. I didn't give out orders, and I'm still not used to it, even if some of the Displaced want guidance from me now. They'd be better off getting it from you.

[vns]

I'm not here to lead, El.

[ that is a defensive response. ]

[mrngstr]

All right. Then you'll have to put up with me trying to figure out how.

[vns]

Too bad we lost all of our upstart Displaced.

They messed up in how they carried out their plans, but I could use the help and guidance right now. We could.

[ though Gaby can guess how people responded to El's reveal on their ends. ]

[mrngstr]

There could be suitable people to take that role among their number now. We might just need to give them the option.

We'll see. If they get back.

[vns]

Yes. We'll see.
