Anyone die?

[prevail]

There was a strange test involving drills that could have been lethal, as well as monsters.

And since then, Marik has vanished.

[fortitudosalutis]

[ Maybe it was luck, then. Maybe not. ]

Define vanished.

[prevail]

I can neither find nor contact him. There is no sign of his continued presence.

[fortitudosalutis]

No body, no blood?

[prevail]

Nothing whatsoever, simply gone.

If he has indeed perished, I will see him avenged.

[fortitudosalutis]

sure
ai didn't say anything about it?

[prevail]

There has been no mention.

[fortitudosalutis]

guess that's just the status quo now

[prevail]

If it is the norm, I don't find it acceptable.

[fortitudosalutis]

gonna do something about it?

[prevail]

If I were, it would be unwise to say so here.

We have no assurance of privacy.

[fortitudosalutis]

[ Nice to have that confirmed. ]

interesting

[prevail]

Since they provisioned us with this technology, I have wondered.

My realm has no such devices, so I can only speculate.

[fortitudosalutis]

your realm?

[prevail]

I hail from the Sky Realm. My world, in other words.

[fortitudosalutis]

right
im guessing its in the sky

[ God, this is weird. ]

[prevail]

Correct. We don't live on "continents" or one great mass, such as the plants others describe.

Instead, many islands dot the vast sky.

[fortitudosalutis]

huh
Okay

[ Sure. He’ll just roll with that insanity. ]

how’s that work?

[prevail]

Through a balance of elemental energies which allow them to remain buoyant.

Primarchs such as myself are responsible for overseeing that balance. Or they were, until the task was left to me when the others ceded their wings.

[fortitudosalutis]

that make you a scientist or something else?

[prevail]

No, nothing like that.

The word most seem to understand here is archangel.

[fortitudosalutis]

[ There's a long pause. ]

what does that mean to you

[ It's better to do this over text. It hides the anger currently twisting through him. ]

[prevail]

What I am, and my responsibilities.

However, I've found what comes to mind for others here is different. They know the same word, they associate it with winged creatures who have the same names, but little else is the same.

[fortitudosalutis]

you serve god?
