Forcellia, or at least the part of it that contained the clearing in which the group now found themselves, wasn't exactly welcoming. The ground was little more than rocky soil, the sky violet-grey and overcast. Here, it was evidently late afternoon, edging into evening. It was slightly humid, as if from a recent rain; faint clouds of steamy mist seemed to curl off the ground, partially obscuring their view of their surroundings. Scraggly trees rose up out of this mist here and there, as if grasping towards fresher air.

The villagers in the area had supposedly been contacted ahead of time, and this had been the place they’d agreed to meet the crew. Whether or not they knew anything about this supposed Scepter of Domination, however, was not yet clear. What the Scepter even did or how it might contribute to their struggle was even less clear.

In the distance, they might hear the occasional whinny of a horse, or the lowing of a cow carrying up to them from the distance, though it was difficult, if not impossible, to tell from which direction the sound was coming from.

Getting her started on humans...that may take a while. "Humans are the enemy of everyone. They fear what they do not understand and they kill what is not human, solid in their faith to their corpse Emperor. If it were up to me, I would bring them to ruin."

Alendian is admittedly biased on the topic. Her craftworld, after all, was being ruthlessly invaded and destroyed by humans for no good reason at all.

"That sounds... somewhat similar to what some would say of the humans in my world." She herself wasn't at odds with them other than by association due to the constant war.

"And many share the same sentiment you do in regards to them as well. It seems that humans are a prominent race in most of the worlds I've been introduced to ever since I woke up on the ship... makes me wonder why that is."

"Tch." She clicked her tongue, anger getting the best of her. Why humans took over the galaxy from the Eldar is something no Eldar will speak of outside their own kind.

"I... sorry, must be a hard subject..." she replied, rubbing her arm awkwardly as she looked down.

All the awkward silence, all of it!

"You would not understand in the slightest. If we are done here....?"

"I'd like to understand... but y-yeah, I won't keep you. It was an honor speaking with you Alendian." she responded with a respectful bow.

"If you are honored, fight harder the next time you see that creature. And use any lightning abilities, if you have any." Alend offered a dismissive wave.

She nodded in turn and looked back to the skies.

Lightning huh? She'd keep that in mind for sure.
