Welcome to Gaia! ::

Kallichore's patrol route had careened through the outskirts of the city without finding anything Chaotic in particular. There were sparse Order signatures dotting the landscape, one of which was relatively close to her current position near a small patch of single-family homes. They had expansive yards and, in the years she'd been a senshi, Kallichore noticed youma had a tendency to appear in places packed with human activity. The outskirts of town tended to be a stomping ground for agents trying to avoid the eyes of senshi, trying to lay low while they break into homes and steal souls.

Order was having none of that.

However, without finding an agent to pursue, Kallichore found herself wandering from point to point and stopped once she found another signature. Just with the intent to check in and make sure the other senshi didn't need assistance, the eternal stopped close by the water tower and made herself known, just in case.

"Did you need assistance, Sailor? I was passing by and wanted to find out if you had found anything, or if you needed any help."

Taking the introduction as a cue that approach wasn't forbidden, the eternal hopped closer to Eris, but not so close that the Super could be touched. Kallichore gave her a short and concise bow. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Eris. I'm Kallichore, Senshi of Madness." The name Eris didn't ring a bell but the Goddess herself was familiar - a leftover from a Greek mythology unit during an English class some years ago. Eris had something to do with an apple, didn't she?

A quick shake of the head. Anyway. "...do you mean you were outside of Destiny City, or that you had not powered up in some time? Either way, it's a pleasure to have you back in the fray, for what it's worth. I certainly hope it's willingly that you join us? Not some sense of guilt?" Perhaps that was prying but the eternal wanted to make sure Eris powered up because she wanted to, not because her star or comet or whatever had called her back into action while she was enjoying a perfectly safe and mundane life.

"I didn't find anything unusual on my patrol, so if you'd like, I can join you? Perhaps get you up to speed, so to speak. How long has it that you've been gone, Eris?"

"Disappointed that we haven't made any progress? You'll get no argument from me. But there is no Queen to place on a throne; she's long since dead."

Has much changed besides a stronger pull of Negaverse energy?

That was one thing Kallichore had - a basic idea of what had happened in the past up to the present, barring a few things here and there. From her research into updates for the Primer, she'd managed to stitch a narrative together that came close to making sense of the insanity that was the war. No pun intended. "The reason why I know this is because I saw it with my own eyes. Order was having a large-scale meeting. Princesses were in tow - Iris, Polaris and Chronos. There were far too many people in one place and too few cats, and the Negaverse showed up to ambush us. It was a slaughter, for we were wholly unprepared."

Kallichore lowered her head in silent respect for those that had fallen and for those unlucky enough to be whisked away into the darkness, never to be seen in the same form again. "Ares, Zinkenite and Howlite led the charge. We were losing, terribly, until a grand light came to save us. We woke up on the Moon itself. There is a ruin there, an ancient city. Within it was the ghost of Queen Serenity. She gave us passage there, telling us we could visit the Moon itself during every full moon. I fully intend to explore its secrets as soon as possible."

From that bit of information, six individuals of royal power that may or may not have been known to Eris were named. "Ares has corrupted and created a faction of Chaos senshi not like those the Negaverse takes. They are called Dark Mirrors. I saw their birth firsthand. Don't listen to anything they say, Eris. Leto used to be Europa's cousin but was baptized by Ares in a mirror and was no longer the same. It was like someone else inhabited the body..."

The eternal turned away for a moment, wondering what she could provide that would make Eris think all was not lost. "It seems to me that when Chaos rises, so too does Order rise to meet it. The Moon, the Queen had said, will never allow Chaos to enter. We would be safe there to hold large meetings and to gather in peace. Cats can give you the pearl needed to gain passage to the Moon. We're also setting up a Blackwatch, something to assist not only newbie senshi, but Destiny City as a whole. All is not lost."
