 She's been here since the start. Longer than myself even. She was the first to send her kid off planet when things changed. I joined up after her when I was cast aside, and we formed the underground. *He waved them forward and continued down the way* Well Phyx, let's meet up with this woman, see what she might know? Sounds like she might've known your folks. ~AMK

 Asphyxia nodded in agreement to MK, before casting Gaertim another curious look. 'I thought you started the resistance, though?'

Might as well have, but it wasn't my idea. The idea was hers, I just provided the muscle needed to get it going. Strong ideals, but no way to set them forth. So we started to gather others. I took over things so she could spend more time in hiding, and its been that way since. She's sweet for all she's been through. *MK followed on, running his hand along the wall and admiring the work of the tunnel, which appeared to have been crafted by hand*~AMK

'I'm still a bit confused. Why'd my being sent to Earth as a baby make you think of her?' she questioned. She gave a strange look to both the men as she tagged along.

If memory serves well, that is where she sent her own daughter. *The tunnel opened up into a larger chamber, with several other tunnels linking out from it. There were other Akumoni about, most female, some male. Gaertim approached one to the middle left, seated in a wicker chair*Kelissa, these people are here looking for information. The girl here dressed as a guardian claims to be one of the children sent off to Earth. Seems they might join our cause.

'Hi,' Asphyxia nervously said. She smiled at Kelissa, but kept close to MK at the same time.  The woman climbed to her feet, and approached the trio. She nudged her glasses back up her nose, and scrutinised the newcomers. She had a long wave of black hair, fanning out and almost obstructing her wings. She seemed to look quite similar to Asphyxia.
'Your names?'

My name is Markuel, and this here is Asphyxia. We've come to help the resistance, and she is looking for her parents. ~AMK

'Kelissa,' she replied, holding a hand out to MK. Kelissa glanced over to Asphyxia, looking at the girl with renewed interest. 'So this is Asphyxia, hmm...?' 'Um...yes?'

Well met. *He took her hand firmly, though took a knee as seemed a sort of custom; a unified declaration that he was not superior*~AMK

'How did you two meet?' Kelissa questioned, and then turned to Asphyxia. 'Take off your helmet, let me see your horns.'  She did as instructed, and allowed her horns to pop back out, just wondering what exactly was the point of doing so. Tucking her helmet under one arm, she watched Kelissa anxiously.

Well... truth be told, I'm not from around here myself. I run a science and technology facility on the planet Gaia. Asphyxia came to us one day seeking work... ~AMK

'But you're one of us...' Kelissa said, thoroughly confused by MK's words. Shaking her head, she looked over at Asphyxia's horns. ' As I thought. Your friend said you're looking for your parents, yes?' 'That's right, yeah...do you know them...?'

It's a rather long story, and there are more important things at hand. Perhaps another time. ~AMK

'I see. And Asphyxia, yes, I know your parents. Those with a keen mind watching might have already figured it out, but...actually, I am your mother...' she trailed off, watching Asphyxia with a blank expression that belied her sudden inner nervousness. 'You're joking!' she spluttered, jaw dropping.

Well, the both of you do have quite a few similarities. It makes sense what with all that has been said so far. *He trailed off and stepped aside, deciding that this bonding moment was better off between just the two of them*~AMK I'm going to head topside; keep an eye out for Guardians. *Gaertim excused himself and walked down one of the tunnels*
