"like robo boy said. You probably ended up here, same bad luck as us. Or great luck. Really, depends on how you look at it. I suggest tagging along with the main group, or joining my little band, who muck around behind them. Your choice, really." As Envy collected the team, Marcus moved to follow.

"I live ship! Fly through stars! Very pretty. You wish, come with me? See others? We be careful, keep safe."
Lyra was still away from the campground Xyleena and Jona spoke at, but was getting closer.

"Unfortunately, no." Nybeth began stroking his beard as he continued speaking. "As I said previously, these subjects are imperfect and lack a spirit. In lacking a spirit, the body also lacks all will and personality. They are incapable of making decisions on their own, and as such must be directed into action."

Jessica looked around at the crash site as she followed Ness to it. She felt greatly relieved to find that it didn't seem like a Legaian counter-attack had occurred. Hearing Envy, she started quickly shifting her gaze between the crash site and Envy as he walked off. "Well it doesn't look like any attack happened. What should we do now?" She asked Ness.

"I know of no alliance. Our planet has no ties to space, in case that weren't obvious. Nor do i know what a Quarian is. Is there a reason your kind is hated?" Athena asks.
"I guess I'll go as well. Might prove to be an interesting diversion." Savranth says as he goes to follow Envy. He waves to Jessica. "You coming, too?"

Trilby walked out of the base, and out of Port Letosh, to where he had dropped his arm.
He picked the arm up, reattached it, then started walking away from Port Letosh.
When he was a fair distance away, he sat down, and began preparing another disguise.

Jona grinned and nodded.
"Safe, good. Others, better than one. Alone very long, difficult." He scowled at his own inept use of language, but shrugged it off and resolved to practice with the others whenever he could.
"Not sure I'd call it great luck." Kynn said nervously, shuffling from one foot to the next. "Hang on. I'll have to grab some stuff before we go." Hurrying to the storage compartment on his pod he took out a large backpack and began stuffing foil wrapped blocks into it. When they were all in he took a number of mechanical components. Finally, he swept in several plastic bags filled with a red substance, ppushing these in hurriedly before sealing the bag and slinging it on his back, just above the shotgun that he had taken earlier.
"Alright then. Lead on." He said to the others as he came back.
"Yeah, there are reasons. Just not very good ones." He said bitterly to Athena. "People assume that we're beggars and thieves, based entirely on Quarians who've been sent away from the fleet on Pilgrimage. Any who do steal usually have no choice, because they've been left in a desperate situation with no money or resources, and face permanent exile, homelessness and starvation."

Ness twitched a bit as she heard Envy walk off. Wow... what a prick! The man just falls out of the sky and he walks off!? Turning to Jessica, she scratched the back of her head. "I'd want to find Tao... but the ruins really have my interests piqued..." She sighed before shaking her head. "Go on ahead, I'll stay back here. If something happens, you can always teleport to me."
Her expression worsened a bit as she heard Kynn. "I'm... sorry to hear that, sir."
Rex looked back before walking with Envy. This.. should be fun...

"I see" Loki answered, trailing off slightly as he lost himself in thought. My plans will need slight modification, but this does little to hinder them. After a short while, Loki focused on the conversation again. "Well then. With that, I have nothing further to ask, and shall take my leave. A good day to you." he said, then left Nybeth's cave and returned to the dragon den where he found that Fafnir had returned, bringing with her a deer and a mountain goat. The bones of the deer had already been picked clean, likely by her young, and Fafnir herself was tearing of bits of flesh from the goat. Loki waited untul Fafnit was finished with eating, then saddled her up and mounted. Riding Fafnir out of the den, Loki made her take flight in the manner he had done before, making his way west, towards the Wild Lands. He had cloaked both himself and Fafnir to avoid detection.
OoC: I'm off.

"While such ignorant assumptions are idiotic, you can't deny that those who do steal should find better ways. Easier said than done, but it certainly doesn't help your reputation. Plus, it is a crime. And no matter the reason, crimes should be punished." Athena replied.
Marcus nodded, and followed after Envy, not commenting on Kynn's collection of gear.

"Great! Follow me, we find food, water, others." with that, Xyleena hopped to the ground, and greeted Lyra, who quickly explained the crash. Xyleena let out a sigh, and said to Jona. "Follow. We find ruin, let us get home to ship." she and Lyra began heading out to Port Letosh.

Kynn turned his obscured face to Athena and looked at her for a few moments.
"No matter the reason? All too often, people are forced into crime by the same societies that make the laws." He replied coolly. "People do what they have to to survive, and survival is rarely pretty, for those who aren't sheltered by the more privileged side of the galaxy."
Jona nodded and followed Xyleena, easily keeping pace despite her rapid, scuttling gait.

"Well since this seems like my only chance, I'll take it to see the ruins. Good luck on your end. I'll bring back some pictures to show you!" Jessica said to Ness before turning around and hustling off to catch up with Envy and those who followed him. She nodded to Savranth as she caught up with him.

With his cave now vacated, Nybeth went back to his work of preserving his most recently acquired specimens.

Savranth came to the temple. "So, this is the temple ruin? I've read that there are a few such examples as this in the world. Like the alter near the Forward Base. Never really thought about what they were for..."

"So you think the ends justifies the means? You might as well say that genocide would be okay to prevent disease or war. Accomplishing noble ends through unjust means accomplishes nothing." Athena replies. "Anyway, I have work to do cleaning up this mess and soothing the people's concerns about what has happened here..." She says walking off.
[hr]
"A library? There should be one a few blocks away. Just follow this street, turn left onto Peach Tree Street, and you should come across it soon enough." The person answered Rita.
OoC: @Furi: You should actually have her ask via words. That will grab my attention if I'm not watching too hard.

OoC: Ok quick head count, who's heading to the ruins?
"Thanks." said Rita to the passerby before heading down to Peach Tree Street and looking for a library
[hr]
Envy waited for everyone to catch up before speaking"Ok, some ground rules. First, I think it's only fair that I have first dibs at any treasure, since I'm the one bringing all of you along. Second.... well I think the one rule will work for now, unless anyone has anything to add."

Kynn snorted into his vocaliser as Athena walked off.
"Right, because that comparison makes sense..." He shook his head and continued on with the others. As Envy spoke, he glanced up with interest.
"What are we supposed to be looking for?" He asked.
OOC
Furi I've got both characters with the group. But I don't know if I'll be on that much longer. Getting late.
