Forum Guidelines
Did this game really need 8 threads?Yes. It's....a very large game that also formerly had a subforum on the original forum it was part of. Confining it to a single thread would result in interminable amounts of interactions getting in the way of everyone else's due to sheer scale.

"W-what is that thing?!"
"A Greater Adamantoise Fiend? Here?!"
"Out of our way, Order scum. We have work to do. And, you, Justice. We are not here to negotiate."
"Fine, have it your way! It seems you don't understand at all! Fine."
"I see. So that's how it is."
"Students, hold this area. Professor Ramsay and I will hold off the side to keep you from being flanked. Professor Ververs will join us there. Your priority is to get the villagers to safety. Apprehend this...."Justice" if you can. We have to get to the bottom of this." "You have your orders. Go."
"Olivia. Stay back here and provide them assistance."
"Understood."
"Come on, team, we got this! Let's show these....Seekers of Calamity or whoever they are that we're not going to back down!"
"T-thank the Sculptor! We thought we were done for! There's no way we could've held out against them!" "We'll clear a safe way out! You get the villagers to safety! "....you lied to me, Obedience." "Don't hold it against me, Justice. We are not here to talk with scum. Unless you would like to try your hand against me again, because we know how that ends." "....damn you."
"'Art thou mine worthy enemy, or art thou naught but a jester?' Let us see if these mere Fiends and bandits will bring fire to my heart. Let us commence with their reckoning."
"Andreas, like we practiced. Stick close, okay? I'll protect you, and you protect me. Do you have a plan of action for these Fiends, before we go in?"
"...I'd say we need to use the forest to our advantage. Make a choke point so they can't flank 3-F. There's less of us, but the terrain's to our advantage, and between our Artes...."
"....never again. Not here. Not ever." "Tell me, do you see any villagers here? Are you, in fact, not the only people here, pawns of the Order? And are you truly foolish enough to think that we came here to massacre the innocent? We gave them a chance to run." "You're right. We have no business with the good people of Blackby. We're here for-" "Damn it all. They told me nobody would-!"
"....." "....who is this....sassy, lost child?"
"A court? You think the sins of the Order can be washed away by a mere court?! You must be more naive than I thought. Call me whatever name you deem fit. The Order must answer for those who fell at Volskaya....and elsewhere." "...." "Fiends, Alphinite, weapons....all are tools to an end, nothing more. Justice must be brought upon the sinners through whatever means necessary."
"So....you are the son." "Do you think the story of Orrel Sokolov was a secret known only to you? The names of those whose blood is on the Order's hands are inscribed on every memorial wall those hypocrites dared to put up and commemorated as if they were not responsible for their deaths! His story was no different from countless others."
"Orrel? As in Orrel Sokolov? ....hm. The world really does have a cruel sense of humor." "These monsters are nothing more than a means to an end. Even with our leader's power over them, they are still wild animals. To claim to work with them is folly, even for us. It would be like attempting to claim power over nature." "As for who I am.....since you have told me your name, I will give you the courtesy of introducing myself. I am Justice, one of the Seven Virtues of the Seekers of Calamity." "The Seekers of Calamity?" "We are but a small, humble group, seeking to protect the world against the injustices the Order has brought upon it. Until recently, we have operated in the shadows but.....it seems, with no justice forthcoming, we must act."
"Are you pawns of the Order?"
