Is this where Jon, Sarine, and Sara show up?

or is this where Meji's father shows up, with an Elf delegation?

Ian did it!

Isn't it a bit early for another elven visit, about a year by my count. But we'll see.

No, wait, that's Jon, I recognize his vest and his ponytail!

Too early for a scheduled visit but if you recall, Sarine left that hornet's nest a bit stirred up. It would make sense for the Elves to send a mission to Tsuiraku as a part of their general panic.

With that in mind.. one must ask "was it right for Sarine to have told them?"

Ethics and morality.. sometimes I wish they didn't exist, yet without them, I would not exist.

Pray that it's Jon and Sarine.. otherwise the ELFS R HEIR TO KEEL U.

That'd make sense, if they weren't human. <_<

A random bunch of people coming to Tsuirakushitii to buy some tentacle pets for their young, nubile daughters.

What can we actually tell based on the page we see?

1) The people doing the magic aren't elves -- at least, the guy with his hood down doesn't have pointy ears.
2) The platform appears to be surrounded above and below by stars and space, or something that looks like that.
3) It doesn't seem to be a typical travel platform, unless I'm remembering incorrectly.
4) The people appearing number at least 8, based on counting heads.

Hum...

Something just came to me...

If I knew that someone hated by (almost) my entire nation (like Errant by elves) have stolen my goddess, that he will be living/hiding in a country made of people despised by (almost) my entire nation (like Human by elves), I would have absolutly no moral problem by cutting every communication/way of fast travel of those nation, just for the excuse to get the one guys that we want so bad.

After all, its not like those guys mater: the only reason that they are able to be that advance its because we teached them how, according to what think (almost) my entire nation.

Pie Iesu Domine, dona eis requiem...

At least, that was the first thing to run through my head.

Hmm... It occurs to me that, even if the warp platform did leave Meji sterile, she'd get better...

Sarine didn't tell them any more than she had to and didn't mention Meji by name. Just that she was with half-elves.

I think that it's fairly clear that it's a standard Tsuirakuan Travel Platform and those are Tsuirakuan travel mages that are operating it.

Of course, it wouldn't just be Jon, Sarine, and Sara. They would come in on a standard flight, along with other passengers. However, I'm not quite sure that Elves would use the standard Travel platforms since they have their own travel gates all over the place. This may indeed be our tumultuous trio.

Maybe, but she's increased the likely hood of more elven death-squads roaming the cities now, and as Neko7 has pointed out, they probably have very few reasons -not- to go apeshit and start killing lots of things.

Where would the best places for finding info on half-elves be? The Veracian I-got-burnt-down-recently vault o' religious bigotry, OR the Tsuirakian State?

I mean, I actually can see that it's likely Jon on that platform (though it's hard to recognise if there's Ellis, Sarine or Sara with him), but I hold on hope that it's an elven death squad.

It just makes sense that the elves would turn up. There's nothing more I can say..

Scary. That's the first thing to run through my head also.

It does look like Jon. Dark hair in a ponytail, and that vest really look like Jon's vest. The tall person at his right could be Sarine with the hood of her new coat up. Why it'd look white however might just be a lighting trick.

If you'll look at the top post you'll see that I don't disagree with you. It makes story-line sense for elves to show up about now. But, it also makes story-line sense for Sarine and her party to show up. This isn't mutually exclusive here.

As far as Neko7's issue, I don't think that the elves are that much stronger than Tsuiraku. Elves are down to a single city and shrinking/retreating. Plus they are somewhat fragmented into factions. While a global power, they are no longer the sole supreme global power.

Tsuiraku has hundreds of thousands of mages that have been crafting their art for thousands of years and they are growing dynamically. In the defence of Tsuiraku, they are of a uniform mind and they have trained Battle Mages (Bani are one) guarding the Travel Platforms. Neither are they ignorant of Elven capabilities. Meji's granpa ain't stupid either.

If the Elves want to dish out a helping of trouble, I am reasonably certain that Tsuiraku is more than willing and able to return the favor. No, Elves are not going to try it. That would certainly trigger a Elf/Tsuiraku war, which the Elves just might not win.

So, Neko7's scenario is not even going to be tried because it's almost certainly doomed to failure.

Insane and arrogant, elves may be. Stupid, they are not!
