Tarubia

[Sweetheart]

"Why, thank you ma'am." Romanov said, while blushing.

[Doom]

I looked behind me, then turned back to Sparrow and said, "Hold that thought." I tapped Detria on the shoulder, and whispered, "Get a hold of yourself!" She payed me no mind, so I grabbed her shoulder and shook her a little, then she turned. Much to my regret, I backhanded her. She was stunned for a moment, then she regained composure, and turned back to Romanov, saying, "Sorry about my foolhardy greeting. I really don't act like that." I turned back to Sparrow, and said, "Alright, continue on please."

[Sparrow]

"We got a alert from one of our sensors. It detected a high magnitude quake and eruption in the east. Malcolm pinpointed the location, then we came here." Sparrow explains in a kind tone.

[Doom]

"Amazing. So, you rushed here to help us, even if you weren't sure we lived here at all?" I asked. Behind me, Detria looked over the wreckage once more, wishing she could have saved the deceased and helped all the wounded herself.

[Sparrow]

Sparrow tilts her head,
"Yes, of course. We had to be sure people didn't or did need help." she smiles.
Steve nods,
"Agreed, what would we do if we didn't come and later learned people needed help?.... Something similar happened once. To another country."
Sparrow and Steve give a moment of bowed head silence, then look back up.

[Doom]

"Oh my! What became of this other nation?" My concern was fueled by the visions of unholy fury I had experienced.

[Sparrow]

"....... It was..... Nuked." Sparrow says in a saddened tone.
"The explosion wiped nearly everything out. And en radiated the land." Steve adds on.

[Doom]

"Was... was this country, perhaps, called Forli? Was this nation destroyed by this.... nuke? Is a nuke a weapon that brings the fury of a thousand suns?" I was feverish in my questioning, and Detria was now at my side, also concerned.

[Sparrow]

Sparrow and Steve look to each other in confusion, then look back to him.
"Yes it was." Sparrow replies.
"And yes it is." adds Steve.
Malcolm just listens, intrigued.

[Doom]

I stepped backward, gasping for breath. My visions of the past and the future had all been true. Xefos's works were right and true. But, how would these three react if I told them? How would I explain my religion? Detria, as always, acted boldly, with no consent for those involved. She told them, "A nation destroyed by the fury of a thousand suns? That is exactly what our High Prophet saw, even if he has never been to this nation himself!" She patted my shoulder, and I silently cursed her under my breath. I didn't want to alarm them or embarrass myself, depending on how they took it. Now, they would react either way, all because of my best friend's big mouth.

[Sparrow]

".....You see visions too?" Sparrow asks, sounding like it didn't surprise her too much.
"I've seen a few things, but they never have anything important in them."
Steve chimes in,
"Not true... You found the keys."
Sparrow just looks to him with a expression.
Then he adds,
"She sees ghosts too."
Sparrow side glared at him.
He shrugs,
"What? It's true."
"Be that as it may..." Sparrow sighs.
She refocuses.
"Any idea as to who did it?" she asks calmly.

[Doom]

I stumbled over my tongue, and I suddenly came to a clear response. I said to them, "I heard the name Amestris whispered in a dark and hateful tone when I witnessed the fiery clouds in my dreams, but I otherwise have no idea..." I felt nervous, as if something enormously important was occurring that I was oblivious of. I was scared, but I felt like I was helping a cause of some sort. After all, the tone they asked the question seemed as if it was of importance to them.

[Sparrow]

"....So, it was Diz." Sparrow says in a darker tone.
Steve shakes his head in disappointment,
"I knew I got a negative vibe off her at the world meeting."
The both sigh.
"Well, that can wait. This is far more important at the moment." Sparrow says, her tone lightning greatly.
Steve nods in agreement.
"If you would like, you and anyone we find may stay on an Epocheian island for as long as you'd need. Or you could stay there if you decided." Sparrow says kindly.
Steve chimes in,
"Not one with synth weeds right?"
Sparrow shakes her head slightly amused.
"No, not one with synth weeds." she says reassuringly.
"Okay good. Being sure." Steve says then smiles.
Malcolm's watch beeps, the guards look to him and watch him carefully.
Malcolm freezes at the looks they give him, then he takes an inhaler from his pocket, inhales two sprays, coughs, then pockets it again.
"I-I'm good, don't worry." he says shakily to the guards.
The guards watch him a moment more then look back to the land scape.

[Doom]

I looked at this Sparrow lady with a puzzled look, and then over at the ruins. "My people need me here. But, Detria may have a closer connection to the citizens of Enkateleip than I, so she may want to travel alongside the injured." Detria approached Sparrow, and nodded, saying, "I wish to act as an ambassador to this Epocheia nation. You seem like a charitable people, and our fresh status as a global power dictates interaction." She walked behind Steve and shot a pitying glance to Malcolm. I watched her walk away, then spoke once more, saying, "Who is this Diz person? You say she was suspicious in some meeting? Is she responsible for the attack on Forli?"

[Sparrow]

"She exploded Fox's country like I exploded the door at the meeting.... Oh that was mean, sorry." Sparrow facepalms.
Steve shakes his head amused.
"Um perhaps..."
"Right." Sparrow says taking out her own inhaler at using two sprays. She coughs and pockets it.
"Diz is another world leader. It seems like she bombed Forli. Why, I'm not sure." she says after clearing her throat.
"I just got weird 'person of evil' feeling off her when I was at the meeting. I ignore stereotyping people like that when I can...." Steve says.
"Your normally right though." Sparrow chimes in.
Malcolm keeps his view to the ground and is visibly trembling.
