Comments

[transmittable]

It is, we suppose, but our reasons for using it are... Well, you'll have to see. We can't say anything more.

[nachetanya]

... And that is the answer for the question you wanted to ask me.

[transmittable]

You're waiting to see. That's it?

[nachetanya]

Yes. [ She... ] To me, the only people who are my enemy are people who are fighting me directly, or who are opposing my ambitions. Right now, you and the Risen have gotten in the way of them - as I said, my world will be destroyed soon, the longer I remain here - but you haven't directly opposed them.

So I'm hoping that we can cooperate.

That would make things better for both of us, right?

[transmittable]

...It would. But... I don't think we can cooperate in the way you'd like. We'll just as to see, as time goes on.

[nachetanya]

[ She makes a noise of agreement. ]

We've spoken for quite a while here, and I should start the day. Do you have a last question for me, or would you be opposed to speaking again sometime?

[transmittable]

For now... We think that's all. If you'd like to speak again, we will be here to answer.

Have a good day, Assertive.
