On weakness

[culbutiri]

[So Nesir has been avoiding people for the most part, annoyed at the grief for Dax, angry at the fact her soul was trapped, but she's also going crazy with nerves about her part in the infiltration in a few days and she has a question she's been thinking about since she met Kuwabara.

She doesn't even have to pretend to look pale and worried]

Hello, my name do be Nesir Aeser and I do be having something to talk about. I do be aware that there do many people from many worlds here and we all do be different and having different strengths and weaknesses. But lately I did be coming across a worrying weakness and was wondering how many people did be sharing it.

Apparently there do be people who can no be fighting women. I do no be knowing if this do be some kind of curse, or just something in a different world that do be a problem. But I am sure I do no be needing to explain how people with this weakness are going to be in more danger than the rest of us, considering everything..

[As in: Ruana is a woman, Nesir actually doesn't care about most people, and is just interested in this concept, but it should be enough to worry others.] I do no be knowing if there would be a way to lift the curse, but I do be offering my help to anyone with similar problems who do be wanting to be overcoming this.

People who can't fight women? That's... really bloody weird. I've never met anyone like that before...

.. And it sounds like a pretty annoying curse to have, so hopefully there's a way to lift it.

[culbutiri]

[She's glad she's not the only one.] It must be, it must be putting them at a huge disadvantage in battle...

[technologic]

Yeah. Nearly all of the women I know are fighters, and they are pretty damn strong ones too. And with who is in charge here, not being able to attack women is a huge weakness.

[culbutiri]

It do be, and under the circumstances we do be needing all the fighters we do be having, and we can no be affording any weaknesses. Maybe someone with healing magic will be able to be lifting the curse.

[technologic]

Hopefully. There are all kinds of healers here, so there has to be one that can undo this curse. Or else fighting Ruana gets a bit more difficult.

[culbutiri]

It will be very difficult, I can only be hoping that someone do be knowing how to cure it, or helping it at least. Or that it do be a very rare curse.

[technologic]

It does seem pretty rare, and I've never heard about it until now. I'm guessing you met someone with this curse, then?

[culbutiri]

Yes I did be, and they did be getting quite worked up about the fact they could no be fighting me.

[technologic]

Worked up? Huh, then we're really gonna have to try our best to lift it.

[culbutiri]

Yes, I do no be knowing much about curses though. Except they do be powerful magic and nobody do be really using them anymore because they do be complicated.

[technologic]

You know more than me, at least. Magic doesn't really exist where I'm from, though I guess my powers are kinda magic in a sense.

[culbutiri]

Nesir blinked at that, she had filed April as a magic user in her head. She had seen her use magic.

"They did be looking like magic to me."

[technologic]

Well, it's... Hard to explain, since I'm still not sure what magic is. But my powers are all purely... I guess biological is the word. My genetics are different from a humans, which is how I'm able to do what I do.

... But for all I know, that could be classified as magic.

[culbutiri]

[Nesir wasn't sure what biological meant, or genetics. But of course those who had magic were different to those who did not, that's why they had magic...]

I do no be knowing what genetics do be... I do no be thinking my world has that...

[technologic]

It's, um... [Hold on, she needs to remember what her mentor told her years ago.] ... What we're made of.

I guess I was kinda confused, since I thought magic had to do with more... spiritually stuff. Or at least that's what the books about it at home said. But those tended to be stories.

[culbutiri]

Well it do be. The gods do be granting magic. But it do be coming from inside us as well.

[technologic]

Huh, I'm not sure if any gods were part of what made my kind, but I guess my powers are like magic, then.

[culbutiri]

It did be seeming the same to me. [It was still strange to Nesir that other worlds did not seem to have the gods, or even believe in them. She had also heard people referring to god, singular.]
