| Nozomi had decided to take the trainway to Standsten that one day. He had heard from Vincent there was some weird shit going on over there. So He went over there and apparently would find mist surrounding the island and city ways when he actually decided to enter. It was strange. How on earth did this mist get here in the first place?He couldn't really think of this. Though then he had a sudden revelation that perhaps this was correlated to the Zela and Maltsu incidents. After all. The Primordials tend to be the ones causing all these strange things for the most part. He would walk amongst the area. Searching around and wondering why barely anyone was in the Streets anymore. It was a slightly depressing Notion as he would keep Moving...Man. What even happened here to cause this anyway?
He would lean against the wall thinking. Perhaps there were others as well who had the same idea as him to come here. |

| This place. To be frank, Sharaku hadn't been to Standasen in ages. It was probably his least prefered place. Usually, San Malarus or Penecia worked better for everything town related he needed to do. Plus, this place was not exactly the best hang out after that Stadium incident long ago. And whatever had happened here since then. He didn't even know. To top it off, there was no one from Standasen he knew personally, so even less reason for him to come here.
The only reason he was here now was to look around for a moment, to see where the situation changed for better in any way. And it didn't seem so. Then again what do you expect when one of the Primordials seems to be camping out here. Guess people realized too, as it was fairly empty at the moment. Well, except for someone, apparently. He sure had the luck of running into certain people at random places...Ah well. He would stop by the guy once he was close enough.''Enjoying the view?'' | |

| Nozomi would be continuing his investigation of Standsten when he would notice someone walking around as well who would then begin to walk towards him. Dressed in what appeared to be his usual attire. Nozomi would turn away torwards Sharaku and then address him. Hey There Sharaku. What brings you around here?Me personally I'm just well....Observing what's up with all this damn mist to be honest. You got any idea about that either?I just don't get it.Nozomi would say quickly glancing around. He really didn't get what generated the mist here at all whatsoever, and knowing would make the trip worthwhile he guessed. It was a relief that stuff like this wasn't happening in San Malarus or anywhere else for the most part. |

| Sharaku would shurg. ''I just wanted to see if this place got any better. Guess not.'' Frankly, he hadn't actually expect it to. Unless Thesis would have moved out, and that was unlikely after she already took the time to make a home at the Stadium before. It's not like anyone actually took the offer yet, and knocked on her front door. No one had the courage to rush there and challenge her yet, so she would have little reason to consider moving. If she would even care about some humans wanting to fight her. ''It's probably the Primordials. Thesis has been occupying the local Football Stadium for a good amount of time by now. I'm guessing it's some sort of camp for her. The atmosphere here is probably her influence.'' It made sense that way. | |

| Well yes. Haha.... It looks like it clearly didn't.He wondered what sort of reasoning the primordials from Sharakus suggestion would have for targetting these places. Did they simply enjoy this or were there alterior reasons behind what they were trying in the first place.The primordials?What the hell?Your telling me one of them is in the football stadium? I'm awfully surprised nobody has tried to take her down...Then again she is a primordial.Certainly nothing to underestimate. Man. How long has she even been in there anyway? I never heard about this before. Now that you mention it. It makes sense for that to be her main area of influence. Which could also explain this weird mist.He would trail on as he contemplated it. |

| Hm? Was it that surprising? People simply didn't have a death wish. Staging an attack against someone like Thesis was not going to be easy. Regardless of whether they knew her general location or not. There would be no point in pressing further if half the people were already dead from something like being too overeager and attacking Thesis too early for their capabilities to be able to handle it. Sharaku would shrug. ''Yes, she is. And I wouldn't see it as surprising. People simply weren't dumb enough to show up on her doorstep when they know they aren't strong enough to actually have a fighting chance against her. There would be no point in displaying courage just to go die over there.'' The less people that were somewhat competent at least, the worse for them. It would be no help if someone killed themselves like that.
He would take a few moments to count. ''I believe it's been around 4 months by now. But I didn't exactly mark the day down. I don't really know much more. I've never visited this place a lot. It's more of a place for thugs than anything else.'' And while he could technically deal with the idea, it wasn't anything he needed in day to day life for no reason. | |

| Ah yes yes thats a rather terrible notion.... I wonder when it would be possible to defeat her. I mean I don't think we exactly got all the time in the world. Now I wouldn't exactly say to get a cavalry to just charge into the Stadium, But time from what I heard isn't exactly something we got on our side.He would recall back to when he was talking to Israfel. Frankly the primordial had urged him like hell to get things done as quickly as possible. He would wonder briefly how the angel was doing and why he was so goddamn hard to talk to. Yeah I uh...had a feeling this place was kinda run down and not really for most people. In a sense. I mean theres a place called the muggs for crying out loud. Not to mention how dirty things get over here and how dirty the damn river is as well.Truly this was a very undesirable place.
Fantastico. So we're essentially boxxed in in this situation.... |

| When? Well, that was questionable. They knew little about her abilities and powers as of yet. Maybe they would have a good chance if they gathered a group of the strongest people at the moment, but there was no certain answer. ''I don't know. We know next to nothing about what her combat skills are. I just know that she is indeed strong from the one time I met her in the past. As for time...yes, apparently we only have until the end of the summer, if a certain source is to be believed. However that doesn't mean we can't still take some time to be better prepared for a fight.'' And if they really had to do it sooner, guess they would. For now the situation seemed balanced enough. But he knew it wouldn't remain that way for too long. It was inevitable for something to happen sooner or later.
He would roll his eyes somewhat amusedly. ''Yes, you could say that. As a matter of fact, someone like me wouldn't normally hang out in a place like this at all, I think. But I never really cared about what the standards say.'' Most likely, this place was littered with some gangs and lower class people. At least from a base guess. He wasn't too familiar with it. ''We're sort of boxed in many things nowadays. But as they say, it's useful to learn how to think 'outside the box'.'' No? That actually fit what the guy said very well. Unintentionally. | |

| Well yes then there's that problem... It's terrible to just run in there without any form of an idea of what she's capable of. Yeah. After all a little planning goes a very long way if I do say so myself. This mist I guess is a sign of what's to come. That and that damn green star in all honesty. I wonder what caused it to appear in the sky as well.Action needed to be taken in Nozomi's honest opinion. Though he knew nothing of the primordials nearly. Others very clearly did. SO perhaps he would try to leave it to them somewhat? He didn't have much he could do concerning this at the moment.
Well yeah. A matter of fact is I can't really see any of the people I know being around here either. I have heard of gangs here frankly and this place doesn't exactly seem that safe. That phrase though. Haha. I guess it really does work.He would reply with a smirk as well. They really did have to think outside of the box these days. After all. Relying on common place solutions would not remotely fix anything of what was going on. They had to get creative now or never. |

| Technically, they knew a little bit, but none of it was related to her abilities when it came to an actual battle. ''I only know that she can easily mess around with the other worlds, and even alter the portals that connect them. That, and she is capable of bestowing powers upon normal people, as well as taking them away later. I've learned that when I met her in the past, but that had been months ago. Regardless, it says nothing about her actual fighting abilities.'' So they were none they wiser in the end. It could be a big risk to just run in there, yes. On the other hand, it may become the last resort eventually. ''I honestly don't know. Most of these phenomena tend to be rather misleading. That star probably has to do at least something with the other side of San Malarus, but it's hard to tell. It appears as if it was on our side, but we can't really prove it either.'' How do you get that high? Humans couldn't fly. The only way would be something like a plane, but that would draw way too much attention upon whoever that would try that strategy. May not be worth it at all, if they don't even find out anything useful. Which is likely. That star might not even be a tangible object. For all they knew, it could actually be some sort of illusion, or a reflection of something. What you see is not always what you really get.
''In all honesty, associating with gangs isn't really fun. Unless you are their leader. Then you have it decently fine, I'd say. But as an outsider, yes, I'd say this place isn't exactly safe.'' Not unless one knew how to deal with this stuff properly. Even then, nothing was guaranteed. Thugs and the like could be unpredictable. ''It can work when done right. It is useful to look at things from more than one angle. It's better than being narrow-minded, in my opinion. We shouldn't be content with drawing a box around everything.'' That made it both boring, and possibly only blocked any kind of creativity. | |

| Damn....That sounds like a hell of alot to deal with. Then again this is a primordial we are talking about. Not exactly an average joe or anything of the sort. Alot of this outside of the primordials situation is confusing without much persay of a lead. To be honest my guess is that star probably done poofed over here from there. After all...From what I heard about the zela incident stuff from the alternate worlds is capable of crossing over. Not to mention given the fact that we can travel there and back as it is... The thoughts added up to him in a sense. The possibility of things transporting here and back from there seemed rather likely anyway and did not look impossible whatsoever. Only leaving the question of what life was like in the alternate worlds. Though that was not his job to investigate/wonder in.Yeah gangs just...Aren't anyone I know's thing or anything. I guess you could say that looking at it from an alternative perspective. Yeah. Looking at things from alternate angles yields the right solutions half the time. Or atleast ones that should be judged appropriately. |

| Hm. The star just moving across the worlds didn't make that much sense. It would be a first, if so. Yes, what happened at Zela, and Malstu was a thing...but those happened due to the Primordials, and it also affected the Angels and whatnot. San Malarus was still fine, and he kind of didn't see an object of that caliber moving around just because. ''It is possible, but what happened at Zela was specific. San Malarus is still the same as before. And I've never seen objects like that pass through otherwise. For all we know, that star could just be some sort of trick, and illusion. We can't tell by looking at it from the ground. It may not even be actually real.'' With supernatural, anything was at least remotely possible. ''Well, most people here aren't into that. Though, in a way, the gangs can be useful if you know your way around them. It's just a bit risky.'' You never know what could be pulled on you. But stupid stuff happens even in normal kind of life anyway. ''Regardless of that. Were you actually looking for something specific or just watching the mist float around here?'' Because the latter would not be any help if you were here with the intention to understand something. | |

| Yeah man. What happened at Zela was awfully specific... Though with all the strange shit in this world going on. Who knows anymore?I wouldn't doubt the possibility of the star being a random occurence. Though something like that could have alterior intentions around it. Perhaps behind whoever may have attempted to put it there as well. For all we know. There could be people behind this stuff that we aren't even aware of yes. Man this kind of stuff gets more and more complicated by the day.You ever wonder why we even got dragged into this kinda stuff in the first place?He would say contemplating it. Perhaps sharaku had his own opinions on that.
I guess yeah. Though it's just not my thing. I was mostly investigating here as to whether or not there was anything remotely behind the mist,though I really have not found anything whatsoever. |

| Sharaku would shake his head. ''I don't think someone completely unknown is behind it. I'd say I know enough to tell that. But nor do I know who exactly could it have been. There are many figures we know, but don't know everything about. So at times it's a guessing game.'' It could be many things. So far, it didn't seem to be causing any specific harm. Not on their side, at least. He didn't know about how the other San Malarus was handling it, or if it even affected them at all. ''You can thank the Angels and Primordials for this. The two sides have fought even in the past, with the Angels attempting to stop the Primordials from destroying everything. But apparently they could never fully defeat them, so Thesis and Ananke always came back after some time. It seems they have decided to bring it to us humans this time around, hoping that with our help, they can get rid of the two for good. That's the main story, at least. But I'm sure there are other small reasons behind this all.'', he would explain with a slight shrug. It was complicated. And there were a lot of loopholes too, but he kind of already stopped expecting to be told a lot. Not without him actively seeking the information.
''I wouldn't think it'd be so easy to find anything. The Primordials aren't really stupid. They would hide anything important. I'd almost say they act smarter than the Angels as it is now.'' Well, Thesis, at least. Ananke sounded like quite the risk taker and all, from what he had heard about that circus incident which happened in the past. | |

| Ah yes yes. A guessing game of sorts. Though its all the wiser to only point fingers once there's some much clearer evidence behind things. It's funny as to how all of this is going ona nd sometimes we just don't seem to have a lead on some parts. I still hate it in all honesty. They just had to drag this damn conflict over to us. Well the only bright side I can see off of all of this is that we atleast may have the chance to end it once and for all. You know I've talked with a few angels. Honestly I can't find myself agreeing with any much these days. Though you are probably right. There are alterior reasons behind this...Though I'm wondering the angels intentions for humanity....Judging from what I heard from some.The situation had just gotten more and more complicated in all honesty.It wasn't any easier to understand. Couple that with him only being recently involved and it goes from bad to worse quickly.
Judging from your description I'd agree. Given they seem to be rather elusive and conniving with their actions. |
