animus_network | On weakness

[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.

Perhaps, none of the gods can ever be destroyed so there will always be being light and shadow, but we can be making sure the shadow do be powerless, that there do be few servants of the dark god and they do no be able to cause misery and suffering.

Both can be existing but only one can be ruling.

[She is quite proud of her passionate light warrior act, she's definitely getting better at it.]

[This one certainly has the fervor of a young knight-- one on a holy crusade. He has known the like, though he was never so pure himself, in purpose or otherwise.]

A powerless Shadow-- a high goal indeed. But if the Light would Rule the Shadow, then surely the Shadow must keep some slight strength. Else, what can the light rule?

I have found that there need be no Dark God for man to bring about misery and suffering. He brings it upon himself just as surely.

The light would be ruling all people, and it would be steering them on the right path. I do be knowing we can no be getting rid of all darkness, it do be living in people's hearts.

[She liked his arguments, she sort of wished she could talk about this properly, as herself. But she would never risk that over the network and she had no idea where this man's loyalties lied. It was too risky.]

But we can be making it known that evil actions will no be tolerated, the fight will never be over even once we win for darkness will be forever trying to rise again. But we will be holding it at bay.

Yes. That is indeed where it lies-- the Heart is where light casts its deepest shadows.

[Though he seems weighed down for a long moment, in the end, Lancelot sighs with an air of resignation-- and a certain wry appreciation for the young Lady's words.]

It seems the Light does not have a shy Champion in you, Nesir Aeser. I have no doubt you will tolerate nothing less than what you desire to bring about. If your bold unwillingness to suffer fools is any measure.

[She nodded, noticing that sigh and wondering about it. She didn't ask though, she didn't trust these machines.] I will no be giving up until my goal do be realised.

Yes, I can see that much is true. You seem full of desire to prove your mettle-- in this place, or indeed any other.

[Fierce temperaments in his fellows have always pleased and entertained him. He gives a slight smile.]

If it would suit you, seek me out. The sword is my weapon, and I will spar against you at your pleasure. You need not fear I would condescend to spare or underestimate you.

[The delight that lit up her eyes was genuine, in her temple it was a great honour for a warrior to offer to spar with an acolyte. She saw no reason why it would be different elsewhere, after all knights just like warriors had much better things to do with their time.]

My weapon do be the daggers, I would be being honoured to spar.

Ah, long versus short-ranged weapons. A good challenge for us both, then.

I look forward to our meeting then, Nesir Aeser-- and to hearing of your answer to your detractor.
[Lancelot inclines his head to the screen, still smiling slightly.]
With your leave, I will bid you farewell until then, as I have duties to perform in Service to my Master.

I thank you for a most-- stimulating conversation.

I will be looking forward to it as well. [She smiled and shook her head] I do be thanking you and be awaiting our challenge.

Until then, Nesir Aeser.
[And just like that-- he was gone.]

We really should have a spar-- haha, or at least handwave one in!
