I don't think they're foolish enough to invite a two-pronged war before they've dealt with the elves.

I suppose not. I'm sure the humans are a lesser threat to them, all things considered.

I know Arthur mentioned something about the humans perhaps moving on to eliminate, or at least push out, the elves after this ordeal with the drow had been settled. But do you think the elves may have similar motives? Would they seek to push their boundaries closer to Magadan?

I don't know if this would coincide with any of their social or cultural motivations, but that's why I'm asking.

They might not enjoy co-existing with humans, but they'll prefer to keep to their own land and what they perceive as their boundaries. It's highly unlikely they'll encroach upon Magadan territory in such a way.

[She pauses for the moment, trying to reel all those taunting unanswered questions floating around her head in to form actual queries.] Did you have any questions for me? Or any advice? [She raises her eyebrows hopefully.]

[personal profile] luthir 2012-03-17 12:28 am (UTC)(link)
Don't try to move mountains. [He casts her an amused glance] We need to focus on what's achievable for us, which is, chiefly buying time, when it comes to the humans, and leaving them with a favorable impression of the situation.

[She grins slyly at his pun. She's such a sucker for them, after all.] Right. We're just here for distraction and not to actually make a moral stand. [There's a hint of sarcasm in her tone.] I'm not sure how all of this lines up with my personal ethics to begin with.

Do you have a better solution? [He's not trying to be condescending. Maybe. He's an elf, it's hard to tell D:]
socialgraces: (pic#2551305)

[personal profile] socialgraces 2012-03-17 02:19 am (UTC)(link)
I'm here, on board with this plan, aren't I? So, apparently I don't.
luthir: (pic#2018053)

[personal profile] luthir 2012-03-17 03:31 am (UTC)(link)
Then I'm afraid we'll have to settle for a morality that saves a small number of lives, at least.

[personal profile] socialgraces 2012-03-17 10:01 am (UTC)(link)
If all goes so well. [She sighs.] But you're right. It's definitely better than doing nothing.

Unfortunately, treading on the sun elves' pride might end up being dangerous than crossing the dark elves.

[personal profile] socialgraces 2012-03-18 03:22 am (UTC)(link)
Do you believe they'll perceive our actions as a threat to their pride?
luthir: (Default)

[personal profile] luthir 2012-03-18 10:49 am (UTC)(link)
They will if we overstep what we've set out to do here. This is one reason Thomas means to focus on blocking the passageway below ground without their knowledge. They need to believe they've won this battle that will ensue with their own methods, and they refuse to see what lies in front of them.

[Francesca is actually quite familiar with this tactic of manipulation, although she usually operated on a far smaller scale.] On missions like this, I think it would be much more effective of Wynn to just be blunt about his objectives.

Although I am curious to see how some of the squire will perceive and interpret our expected actions. [She pointedly sweeps her gaze across the lot of them.]

[personal profile] luthir 2012-03-22 01:40 am (UTC)(link)
Perhaps he wished to see if they were perceptive enough to pick up on them.
socialgraces: (wellll)

[personal profile] socialgraces 2012-03-22 01:56 am (UTC)(link)
Well I don't plan to leave them all in the dark. That's just asking for trouble. [She fixes her gaze on Ethan.] I think I'll bring my squire along for my part. His expertise in military tactics will be quite useful in discerning some of their intentions.

[personal profile] luthir 2012-03-22 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
I trust your judgment, of course.
socialgraces: (pic#2551262)

[personal profile] socialgraces 2012-03-22 07:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you, Luthir. [She gives him a small smile.] That means a lot to me at this point.
luthir: (pic#2018053)

[personal profile] luthir 2012-03-22 11:09 pm (UTC)(link)
I helped Wynn select the team. I should hope that speaks for itself.

[personal profile] socialgraces 2012-03-23 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
Volumes coming from you, Luthir. [Her tone is sincere, as is her statement.] I know how much time you've invested into this conflict, and I will give my best to ensure we leave with a favorable outcome.
luthir: (Default)

[personal profile] luthir 2012-03-23 05:13 pm (UTC)(link)
You have my gratitude, for that.
socialgraces: (pic#2451116)

[personal profile] socialgraces 2012-03-23 08:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Anytime. [She keeps her soft smile, turning her gaze to the window on her right.] Besides, an unfavorable outcome doesn't bode well for my personal well-being.

Nor any of ours.

[personal profile] socialgraces 2012-03-24 06:22 pm (UTC)(link)
[She nods.] At least we're all on the same page, for better or worse. Although it is comforting to be around so many old friends.

[His heart is warmed forever that you called him a friend, shh] It seemed the wisest course, to bring experience along.
