Jaller looks at the Sylph, then at the blank paper, then back to the Sylph. “Southpaw, Cursor, could you stay for a second?” Meeting’s over.” She then also turned toward Nathan. The room remained silent until The Velvet Hand stood.
“Any misconduct will be dealt with once this incident is over.” She turned directly toward Nathan and The Thrown Gauntlet.
Just don’t fool yourselves into thinking you stand a chance against a Psi tier godmodder without direct Narrative assistance.” “This war will be won or loss by the Descendants, The Invisible Hand among them. Our mission is greater than any single war.” We will do what we can to minimize the damage, but our primary objectives remain the same. We are in no position to incapacitate Alpha should he lose this war. She could be trusted to always get to the point. He just didn’t care.Īfter far, far too long, The Iron Fist took over. When she decided to stay though… well, Nathan couldn’t say The Thrown Gauntlet didn’t have a point. Scouting wasn’t her main job, but was well within precedent. Nathan knew most of the details already, about how The Palm Reader and The Handprint had first noticed the signs of high-tier Godmodder activity near Paradox Space, and how Anne had volunteered to check it out after a hunch that it was one of their old friends. Finally.Īfter a few more minutes of time wasting, the Hand of the King began the briefing. “Not that it’s any of your business, but we actually aren’t.”īefore The Thrown Gauntlet could retort, the Council of Fingers appeared in the middle of the room. Like you two aren’t talking in secret right now.” “The Invisible Hand can speak for herself.”
Nathan didn’t bother to look up from his latest project, an improvement on an old gift. “And what do you have to say about this, Southpaw?” He was a bit of a hothead, certainly, but this seemed beneath him. He was going on and on about how he was the one who fought godmodders, how Anne’s job was espionage, and so on, ranting to whoever would listen, and many who would prefer not to. What Nathan hadn’t been expecting, however, was a massive tantrum from The Thrown Gauntlet. It was the first Psi-tier incident since the TvTropes Civil War after all, which the recently re-established Gyges had decided to stay out of. People were rushing in from across the multiverse, fiercely gossiping about what had happened.
