Voices in the Dark

[OOC: After this.]

In a distant reality, the Ohm--the real Ohm--were in a heated discussion.

Images of the battle near NiSaris, of the Quarter, of the 00 Raiser, and of the battle of Zokez II were spread to all Ohm.

{{Analysis?}} one of them spoke.

{{Same.}} said another.

{{Threat?}}

{{Unknown.}}

{{No accordance!}} A dissenting voice spoke up. {{Threat! Destroy!}}

{{No accordance,}} said the second voice. {{Learn.}}

{{No! Destoy! Threat! Murder!}}

Many Ohm began to rally behind each of them, driving the discussion to a standstill. It went on far longer than many of their normal discussions. They seemed to take threats to themselves very seriously.

One Ohm, a powerful presence, first among equals, watched the the debate continue. It was the very same presence that had confronted Dhianeila and Setsuna when they had attempted to connect with the Ohm. It watched the argument with growing impatience.

{{I will go.}}

All of the other Ohm came to a complete silence. Even those that felt the crew was a threat seemed reluctant to accept that option.

{{...Necessary?}} another Ohm spoke.

{{Too much?}}

{{Unknown. Must consider.}}

The more powerful presence became slightly agitated.

{{No. Will finish. Will end this. Prevent any threat. Accordance?}}
It took the other Ohm several moments before they could answer.

{{...Accordance.}}

{{All accordance.}}

The more powerful presence relaxed. It would brook no threat to the Ohm. Besides, it had its own reasons to want to confront the crew itself.

Soon, the real war would begin.
