Welcome to Gaia! ::

Manra looked to Rai'o. "I was." she said, "I never did anything like this before. Most likely because i could never know it was real or fake."

I couldn't help but notice the irony of this chill washing over as Mashai'i's silence took the tone to a more grim one. I finally muster the courage to break the silence.
"What happened to him?"

As Maxwell got a pinpoint of where Moriah was, he then started to walk in the direction of where it came from.

Moriah:
"He died a lonely old man, whose dying wish was for me to create 1,000 replicas of the Green Ring so that the Earth Legion may be created," Mashai'i says. "His own child had abandoned him just three days prior to the Green Duelist's death, after discovering that he did not intend to make amends with the Orange Soldier or the Black Knight. He and the Black Knight had had some disputes during the last few years of the team's adventures, and the Orange Soldier lost respect for all of the others when they all confessed a desire to create armies with the Rings."

Manra:
"You can always tell when it is real or fake," Rai'o says. "For example, the water is real because it leaves droplets on your feet when you remove them. If it were not real, it would not do so."

Maxwell:
As you approach Moriah, you see that she is with Mashai'i and Silla. They are all carrying oranges and seem to be in deep conversation.

Kirino:
Jima'ei smiles and pulls you close in a gentle hug. He is very warm, despite having just been in the same cold water that you were in.

"What's so bad about the creation of an army? All nations need soldiers to protect them from invaders. We aren't simply tools for destruction. We are the nation's aegis from evil; the light the pieces the darkest clouds when invaders seek to destroy our homes, conquer our people, and banish our hopes and dreams...." I say to Mashai'i, wondering now how he felt about warriros, and who this Orange Soldier and all the others were like. There had to have been a reason for the disagreement over the creation of a legion... Was there some plan to abuse this power, was the ?orange soldier a pacifist, or perhaps he wanted to sheild his own power...

Marco looked at Nash with a smile.

"See, I told you I was gonna be a great...ring bearer-er...someday!" He had a dorky smile as he brushed off his robes.

"As long as life has existed, there has always been a need for militaries and defenses. Wolves live in groups, have set leaderships, mark territory, and fight for their pack, right? This is no different then a human's army, albeit an army is much more mass scale... But, societies need militaries to protect themselves... I can't imagine how it's possible to have humans, or... anthros for that matter, exist and not to have conflict between societies... " I say to Mashai'i I continued to wonder how he felt about warriors and militaries and such, and I figure I should ask him.
"Do you believe it wrong to fight? I won't claim that all battles are justified, but in the same sense, I still had to raise my blade to cut Silla's binds. I've always believed the difference of a warrior and a bandit was the reason they fought..."

Moriah:
Mashai'i nods solemnly to your first speech.
"I do not believe it is wrong to fight, unless it is unjustified," he says. "Bandits' fights can be justified, just in a different way."

Manra:
"It is possible to make such an illusion, but it's very difficult," Rai'o says. "Nearly impossible at your level."
