Maia was in the park as she often was. She had just finished a training session and sent the senshi off in a pair to patrol. She was still over tired and mourning, but she was doing her duty and it helped. She felt more and more accomplished everyday, like she was fulfilling her purpose in all this. It had been a long road to this, but the pieces were falling into place and she felt like a better person each day.
She walked through the park which was often very quiet as of late, for her anyway. The park was very large and while she could feel other's about, they often moved through quickly, and if not they usually sought out her. They had questions, some just wanted to see where she had patrolled and other's were just peeking to see who was about.
She smiled and started to hum, before starting to sing, which she often couldnt help even if it drew attention to her, "This little light of mine ..."

It had admittedly taken awhile for Dallol to recover. To be well enough to tolerate running about without feeling as if her back was about to give out entirely on her. The pain medication she had helped her kinda but she was pretty much on her own during the day since the pills doped her up so much that she was reduced to a walking zombie at best and couldn't really function otherwise.
The Uranus Page had made her way to the park with the intention of seeking out Remarque this evening, forgetting entirely to check if it was a Thursday which, as fate would have it, it wasn't so that would conversely mean that her chances of running into him there would be slim at best. It was only when she was in the park and sensed the presence of one Eternal Order Senshi that she froze and took to leaning against the tree trunk while she pondered over her next move.
The voice behind the singing didn't seem to belong to the Eternal Senshi of Tigers. Should she just go over and pretend as if whatever happened between her and Tsui never occurred? But what if the other Order Senshis had already gotten wind of what happened that evening and her hostile intentions? She should just turn around and go really while she still had the chance. As soon as she was able to get over the fear that had momentarily rooted her to the spot of course...

Maia felt the other's approach and her singing stopped and she waited to see if the other would come to chat or keep going. Instead it seemed that the other wasn't really moving, but instead just stopped nearby. She didn't feel anyone else nearby order or choas, so it was odd that the other had just kind of stopped. Or maybe it wasn't, Maia was thinking into it to much. She summoned her phone to look at the tracker each one was equipped with and a two white blimps showed up, representing her and the other who was closer than she had originally though, so she decided to call out to the other.
“You don't have to hide, you know? I know that you are here already. I can feel you and I am sure you can feel me, though maybe you do not know what I mean,” she said softly, he voice calm and warm, like a soft melody.
“Come out and we can chat for a while. I promise, you haven’t anything to worry about from me,” she said with a small smile turning and looking for the other to come out into the open.

Dallol only realized belatedly that she should have done anything other than stop when Maia stopped her singing then called out to her after letting a couple of minutes lapse in silence between them both. Turning tail and running was no longer an option nor one that she would be inclined towards given her personality, so she figured that she might as well toss all caution to the wind and play things by ear depending on how they panned out from here.
Stepping out from behind the tree, she took in the sight of the Eternal Senshi of Song, an almost guarded look on her face as she tried to figure out how much the other knew about her previous encounter with Tsui. "I am entirely aware of what you mean. You're one of the Order Senshis and an Eternal one at that judging by those wings and the strength of your aura. I'm a Knight which means that we're supposed to work together for the people of this city."
She tossed that little titbit of information out into the open for the purpose of showing how much she already knew about them, pausing to lean on the tree to take some weight off her back before continuing. "It's just that I can't afford to be too careless since I'll probably start having problems maintaining my grades if I require a prolonged period of bed rest again."

Maia didn't look surprised, but instead accepting and she nodded. She of course thought it was good that page knew what she meant. It was good to come across someone for once who didn't need that bit explained.
"That's very wise. It's a good idea to expression a certain amount of caution when dealing with this night life we've been thrown into. You definitely shouldn't want trouble with your grades. I assure you though I mean you no harm and I can't feel any chaos in the area so for now we are perfectly safe."
She moved toward a nearby park bench and took a seat before motioning for the other to join her. "What brings you to the park tonight," she asked with a smile. She knew nothing of Dallol's situation and even if she did she would think negatively of the girl though she would definitely try to set the record straight.
She wasn't oblivious to the pages cautiousness of her, as she patted the bench beside her, but she want to try to get the girl to relax, so she ignored it for the most part.

Maia wasn't aware of the fight that transpired between her and Tsui. Either that or the Eternal Senshi didn't know yet that she was that Page, or she was just very good at pretending to not recognize her. In spite of her reassurance that she had no intention of fighting her, Dallol did not go to her immediately, a pensive expression on her face as she remained rooted to the spot and pondered over how best to answer the posed question.
"I came to look for someone. To confirm the credibility of certain things that I've been told." That should be good enough. Vague yet non-committal such that there was no way that the redhead would know of her ties with the Negaverse by far. Which struck a melancholic chord within her now that she thought of it, her legs now moving on their own accord to take her to the back of the bench, her fingers splayed across its wood surface as she allowed her gaze to meet Maia's. "Chaos. The Negaverse and the Dark Mirror Senshis. Must we really fight them..?"

Maia nodded, but frowned slightly, "there's no one else around, but us. Maybe you are too early. Did they give you a time to meet them?" It was more a rhetorical question, than one Daloll needed to answer. Maia didn't actually need to know, it wasn't her business, but she figured maybe the page possibly made on oversight in her eagerness, though maybe eagerness wasn't the right word.
At her next question she shook her head, "everyone's path in this war is different. Not everyone is meant to fight. There are other thing which you could do, like gather information or helping with training session with knight and senshis. I am often doing training session and lately I rarely even see a negaveres or dark mirror senshi. You will see however, that they do not often give you much of a choice. I've been randomly attacked many times and needed to fight for my life so they would not kill me."
She frowned slightly before giving a week laugh, "forgive me for being a bit morbid. It's just my desire to make sure those coming into all this on our side don't fall into the same traps and hardships that I had."

"Not really. I'll just try again another day if need be." With a dismissive shake of her head, Dallol gave a small shrug as she shifted her weight from one foot to another, her lips pressed in a thin line at the small spike of pain that came from her back with the movement. She should probably desist in being stubborn and take the empty spot next to Maia lest her back started to trouble her further with the prolonged period of standing she was about to do.
Shuffling around the park bench while holding onto it for support, she slowly eased herself onto it, smiling wryly at the Eternal Senshi's words. "It's okie. It is better after all to state everything as it is than try to sugar coat it and risk running into misunderstandings. I have no issues with fighting them when I have to. That's easy when self preservation gets dragged into the picture." She paused for a few seconds to let the Order Senshi process what she had said, the pensive expression that she had earlier now back on her face as she continued. "Do we have to kill all of them until none are eventually left standing? How does that make us any better than them?"

Maia nodded not at all pertubed that Dallol had chosen not to give up any more information than necessary. She frowned at her next words realizing that there conversation wouldn't save Dallol as much as she wished it would. It seemed might have already had experienced some of those hardships. She shook her head, "I'd hope that we need not kill any of them. There is a way to save them, but I'm not entirely sure how it works. But I know for certain a negaverser can be purified. I've seen it happen before. It works both ways, they can take us, but we can win them over to our side too. We just need to make sure we stick together."
She sighed and leaned forward, "It's not always easy because when you're fighting for your life, things happen, but I can say I've never had to take another's life. I severly hope that it remains that way."
She looked to Dallol, "what makes you ask?"

"Purified. Does the process come with side effects like memory loss as well?" Dallol was well beyond the point of caring if what she said would reveal the fact that she already knew much more than what she had let Maia in on by far, a faint glimmer of something akin to hope flashing across her face when the idea of purification was brought into the conversation itself. If she chose to ultimately remain with the Knights, could Buddingtonite come over and join her then? It certainly sounded like a plausible option. She did mention that a Negaverse agent had gone through the process of purification in the past.
Shifting a little in her seat, she gave a shrug, looking at the Eternal Senshi darkly as she posed a few more questions to her on the war between Order and Chaos itself and the path that it could potentially take them on. "It's not going to be as easy as that, isn't it? There'll be those who'll refuse to come over to our side. This is a war so what other option does that leave us with then?"
Holding the older redhead's gaze with her own, she remained silent at her last question, almost as if she was contemplating if she should tell her what she had gone through over the past couple of months. She took a deep breath and exhaled, her gaze averting as she remained silent for a couple seconds more before she finally began to relate what she had been told from the start. What had set her on a divergent path from those whom she was supposed to fight alongside with. "I was told things about the Senshis and Knights when I was awakened. How I'll be expected to fight and kill those who oppose us even if I don't want to. Until the day I outlast my usefulness and then I'll be... killed by one of our own."

Maia paused for a moment thinking on the question, but simply ended up frowning. "I'm not entirely sure to be perfectly honest. She must have remembered something because she married the one she purified for. How much she remembered, I am not entirely sure, but I doubt it was everything. I think the memory loss thing is somewhat of a cosmic failsafe. If that makes sense."
Maia nodded, "yes I know that, but you have to have a little optimism because if you been dragged through the dirt, but you have hope, than you are less likely to call it quits, to just give up. The only option we seem to have is a grim one, but new factors come into play everyday and I would like to hope we can find another option. Like possibly disconnecting someone from their power. You're still alive, but you don't have the sometimes destructive or deadly power you had before."
Her next words had Maia looked throughly surprised, eyes wide, her mouth dropped open slightly. "Why would someone tell you that. I assure you that most certainly isn't true. We would never force fighting onto one of our own, that's not everyones place in this war and we've learned that, but I can assure you, I've never seen a senshi or a knight force another to fight. Sure we have training sessions where you might learn to fight, to use your magic, but they are recommended so that you may learn to defend yourself, not mandatory. We would also never kill one of our own, most I've met don't even want to harm one of the enemy."
Maia sighed feeling a little lost in the moment, "who ... who told you that?" She just couldnt, wouldn't believe it was one of their own.

"I suppose it makes sense if you put it that way, though the only way to know for sure as to how much they remember will be to ask those who have gone through the process themselves." Dallol quipped, the question as to who and where she could seek such an individual just at the tip of her tongue though she held back from asking the question for now. She nodded a few times, lifting her head to gaze upon the sky briefly before returning it to the Eternal Senshi of Song who was seated next to her.
"If such an option is ever made avail to us, that will certainly come in handy in bringing this war to a close then. But I must add that those whom we're fighting could easily do likewise to us should they get their hands on the device or come to learn of the means through which to do it themselves. I'm somewhat skeptical that there exists such a mean to be honest but I guess one could remain hopeful as you yourself have pointed out."
At the question as to who was the one who had told her everything that she knew about the Senshis and Knights even prior to crossing paths with one of them, she stood up suddenly, a hard look set in her jaw as she visibly became agitated. "You can say that but how do I know that you're telling the truth and not trying to pull the wool over my eyes? How do I know for sure that I'm on the right side unlike what I was told initially?" Shaking her head, she took a step away from Maia, a frown on her face now as her frustration and anguish with the situation surfaced and made itself known. "How will I know that I can trust you and your words when none of you were even there to show me the way right from the very beginning?"

"Well her name is Lina and she is a knight of Mercury. I'm not entirely sure how to get in contact with her so that you might be able to talk to her, but I can get you to someone who might be able to. If that is something you might want?" She said softly, because if their was anyone who could convince Dallol, it would be Lina and while she might not be able to get in contact with her, she was sure Camelot probably could.
"It would certainly be very helpful and in finding such a solution that having it turned against us is a risk we run, but hopefully at that time we are a more united front and will be able to better guard our secrets. For now, hope, we have to have hope for a better future."
Maia frowned slightly when she because agitated. She hadn't meant to upset the girl although that was what she managed to accomplish. We do not have a means with which to specifically find new knights or senshi. Senshi are lucky because a guardian cat awakens them, but for knights it just sort of happens. I can say though that you've found me know and I'm generally here in the park. If you need me you can find me here and I will answer any question that you might have for me. I can even introduce you to other knights and senshi and even guardian cats. I may not have been there in the beginning, but I'm here now and I want to help you."
Maia made no move to keep her from leaving, she made no move at all, not wanting to further spoke the girl. "Will you let me? Will you trust me ?"
