[JAUNT] About mid-week 5

[There's a brief, frustrated huff on the network.]

Alright, I seen this kind a' Youkai nonsense before.

If anyone else's tryin' t'navigate through that big area past the tower, it ain't gonna work 'less yer confident in what yer doin'. Not knowin' what yer after an' doubtin' yerself's gonna make it more tricky - an' more dangerous. Keep yer head clear an' don't loose yer cool.

How are we supposed to be confident when we don't know how it works?

[ninjayeehaw]

I done seen this sorta trap back home, seems t'me t'be just about the same thing. Doubtin' yer path through that kinda maze just makes the maze go gettin' bigger. It feeds off a' that sorta thinkin'.

Only cos this here's an entire universe an' not a single Youkai, I reckon it's gonna go feedin' on a lot more'n just doubt.

[All said with, of course, the utmost confidence.]

Then... what do we do? Nobody can tell me what we do, to make things better...

[ninjayeehaw]

We hunt down that Starmover. Try an' make contact with it so we can understand why it's been causin' all them quakes an' Harbingers.

It ain't all that common we got a proper concrete goal. It's just the gettin' to it what's the hard part.

[whatspringislike]

We just... want to ask it questions?

[ninjayeehaw]

Can't go makin' a judgement call here 'til we know if this thing's malicious or not. Could be hurtin' things by accident.

[whatspringislike]

What if it is, but we can't convince it to stop?

[ninjayeehaw]

Then we go an' see if force does the job.
