Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Hear my voice, follow along in the shadows..." spoke out a voice as the Lotus Eclipse would begin approaching Ace with no signs of the latest edition, the cloaked 'Wrath'. "Not quite the ideal world you thought you would see, huh?" he would ask rather casually before giving a bit of a laugh. "Aaaah, yes. I wonder if it has anything to do with my knock-out blow years back. But anyway, you alright?"

Taking one of the treats, Lotus would look it over and give a bit of an impressed nod. Whoever was behind the treats didn't do a half bad job. "This is why we're a necessity. This is why this company needs people like us, like the Eclipse. We know what is good for the world, and we know what can burn away. Forget those that dare look down on you or ignore you. You can step up, you can take control of this life. It's why you're here now. You heard my call, now all that's left is for you to stand beside alongside us." he explained before taking a bite of the treat. Yeah, not bad at all.

A shake of his head as he ended up tossing the treat behind him and pointing off toward the direction of the offices, "You didn't fail anyone. The failure falls on the one that decided to go against you. You offered help, you offered your time and assistance for a matter that he didn't even have to bother with. What did you get in response? You didn't fail. Stand and rise up for anyone like him will surely fall beneath you," he told her with the hand that pointed off would move and point to his own head.

"The archives exist as history, and history is one thing to be known for two reasons... To prevent tragedy through repeats, and to repeat successes through what actually works. History is a key to the future, but one of those keys were smashed. It makes the job a little difficult, but it doesn't change course. Just means ... we have to get innovative with what we do next."

From now his head to hers, he would point to the side of her head as a laugh left him. A perfect addition, sure, but it was only the beginning of his own vision. "The world to be burnt down and molded from its ashes and reborn as a perfect utopia for those leftover. It'll be a beautiful sight to witness, my dear Ace." he spoke before taking a step back and removing the feathered musketeer hat that has been with him since day one of the Lotus Eclipse birth. "So let's take the world, piece by piece," he spoke before placing the hat on her head and motioning her to follow him. "Aaaah, there's a fun term for this. What is it? My Ace in the hole? Heh"
