Video: Public Service Princess

It seems as if the arrival cycle is over now. Allow me to extend a belated welcome to everyone who was pulled into Vatheon this past cycle. My name is Zelda, and I work with the Welcoming Committee here. Please drop by if you have any questions about our current situation as foreigners in the city. You are also free to ask me here, though there are some topics I would prefer to not discuss over the network.

I would also like to encourage new arrivals that are capable of fighting to look into joining the Defense Force. While things are generally peaceful here, there are some dangerous situations from time to time. Death is not permanent in this place, but it is still rather traumatic and we should do our best to avoid having it happen. If you are interested, please get in touch with Serph or Ky Kiske.

[Gamzee is definitely not a concept she can use to calm the Highblood, then! Noted.]

Gamzee is a sweet child. I am glad that this place gives him a chance to escape that fate. So the Grand Highblood is fairly typical for his caste?

[She'd gotten that impression before, but it can't hurt to be certain. From what she's learned so far, it seems that the Highblood was a soldier of some sort, one that engaged in near-constant battle. He is also religious about the concepts of death and violence, greatly raising the chance that he may be adverse to the idea of not fighting someone. Still, if it is considered proper for trolls to only engage in one black romance and the Highblood adheres to his societal role, the chance that he will agree to having an auspitice rises.]

Yes. He is the head of the Subjugglators, which are the most powerful land-troll group on Alternia. All others report to them one way or another. They are considered the right hand of the Empress, enforcing her will through violence and terror when need be. Sometimes, even when it is not needed.

Yes, I rather got the impression that they engaged in such activities for fun as well.

[Well, all that information lines up with what she already knows. There is no reason to delay further. From what she knows of Darkleer, he is an intensely private person. He likely considers the situation desperate if he's contacting her.]

Very well, I will contact him and let you know if he agrees.

Thank you kindly, Lady Hylia. This means much.

I have last two questions, but they can wait until you establish contact with him.

[Oh no, now she's curious...]

I will call you soon.

Thank you. Good evening to you, my lady.
