It's not Fire Emblem, just an OC testrun for SRWU

I do not understand your people at all.

[Sielje addresses you either during a walk around town, or shortly after returning from one.]

Is Earth not a very dangerous place? Yet from the locals I saw so few carry any kind of weapon. How are they able to defend themselves when a foe attacks?

And all the beasts I encountered were pitiful and small. They seem to live alongside man completely tamed, are there no hunting grounds?

[2, aimed at mecha pilots - especially skilled ones in weak units or the other way around]
[As you try to leave or enter your unit's cockpit, there she is. A woman in a helmet and with a sword at her side, staring at your machine intently - and now, also at you.]


Strange.

[Is that all you get for a comment?]

[Tactics are being talked about. Maybe it's a briefing, or some kind of lecture. Maybe it's just a discussion. Either way Sielje's time to contribute.]

What should be done? I will tell you what should be done.

[She stands up.]


Challenge the enemy head on. Engage from the front, or stand your ground but be clear about your intent. No hiding, no tricks.

That would be dishonorable.

[4 - combat prompt]

Ghh...!

[The situation does not look good. The enemy is overpowering in strength or numbers or perhaps both.]

Alright. So be it.


Hear me! I am the knight Sielje, tha Guard of the South! I challenge you to a honorable duel. Beast or man, accept my challenge! You will not go past me!

[Oh crap she is walking forward right towards the most powerful of enemies, Sielje's mass-produced (or what counts as mass-produced for Ankaians) Knight's Arm having only a sword and a beast hide cloak to defend itself with.

It's a surprise her voice cracked and wavered only a little.]

Is there something wrong?

[The woman exiting her machine is dressed a bit strangely, considering that she just got back from a battle. A wooly sweater is not exactly a typical pilot outfit.]

[mistaken_for_monster]

Uuuuh....

[Volya scoots backwards a little like a skittish and frightened gazelle. Interitus is not being helpful having decided to curl up and take a nap, letting out intermittent 'thhhbttthts' in its sleep.]

Can... can I help you?

[And not get a sword to the face.]

[in_over_his_head]

What are you doing?! Pull back! You're going to get killed!

[Calvin's positioned waaay behind Sielje and behind some cover - the barrel of his OSI-Model Genoace's rifle barely visible. It was also badly damaged with the investigator himself sweating bullets with his heart racing faster than a horse being chased by a dinosaur.]

[keep_your_dignity]

YEAH. THAT'S A GOOD IDEA.

HERE'S ANOTHER IDEA, THOUGH. HOW ABOUT WE DO NOT, IN FACT, ACT LIKE WE ARE COMPLETELY RETARDED.

[Kagura's voice is as mechanical as usual, but there's no mistaking the sarcasm behind that as the faceless plate that was focused on the tactical display turns slightly towards the alien knight]

WHATEVER BACKWATER YOU COME FROM MAY HAVE A THING FOR FUTILE CHARGES, BUT I MAKE IT A POINT TO TRY TO NOT WASTE MY MEN IN STUPID MACHO HORMONAL SHIT. YOU WANT TO KILL YOURSELF, BE MY GUEST, BUT JUST GO JUMP OFF A BRIDGE.

[gurrenbrigbonded]

"I Accept Your Challenge!"

The mysterious avian mech walks slowly towards Sielgie's own unit.

"But know this, Sielgie, Guard of the South! I shall pass through you in the end!"

The mech clearly has ranged weapons, but it lashes out with one of it's thermal arm blades instead. "Knowing this, will you still stand and fight?"

Hm? Oh, well...

In modern society violence is strictly regulated and controlled. Huma-er, we also like to specialize, so we have some people who have defence and security as their whole jobs. That way, a few people keep everyone else safe, and most people can devote their time to other things.

As for animals...well, they are mostly domesticated. Since ancient times, humans either domesticated or ate pretty much everything they could, so now there are so few of some animals people aren't allowed to hunt them anymore.
