Breaking the fifth here willthe Blackwater attack"

"I'oin' with this," said Clint "Score ain't settled with me yet And, like DB said, takin' out a sword now saves us the trouble later Plus, I'uy's ass properly this time around

What about you folks?" He nodded over to Stella and the Blackwater students

"Stella, I'onna defer this one to you," said Tox "You're the one the boss put in charge of us, after all"

"Yeah," said Ace, and Alexis nodded in agree to try and reach out to Thanatos first," said Stella

Clint nodded "Try to contact Thanatos if you can If he wants you to pull out, I'll pull out too"

"There's Geostoroing to e that?"

"Uh, it just works," said Stella She put a hand to the side of her head and closed her eyes, sending out a distress signal telepathically to Aldrich

Ordinary units in the Legion barring boss category beings like Fler'Gan or Okeanos or Chosen like Valera could not freely conals, at which point Aldrich could e in conversation

"The hell…?" Stella's forehead wrinkled in concern "He ain't picking up This ain't like hiht up in our heads in an instant"

"Does sound like what he'd do, OCD as he is," said Tox "Though I do like the detail oriented guys…"

"This is kinda different, too I can feelto him, as if he's somewhere our minds can't touch at all," said Stella

"By now, Thanatos should be here in realspace," said Alexis She and the others knew that every so often, Aldrich could disappear to a different dimension, but he usually told them decently accurate timeframes for his disappearance to make sure there was no confusion "He had a dinner appointment, and he's not the type to flake on those"

"Good I hate ghosters," said Tox

"Did so happen to him?" said Ace

"Well if it did, ain't no way to know," said Stella She took in a deep breath "Meaning the decision's entirelyteaot everyone killed"

"Not entirely reassuring here, sis," said Tox

"Don't worry I' her arm She nodded "Let's do this This was an important mission, Thanatos h even without his input

We need that Kryptic above anything else Might as well treat the fifth sword as a bonus to slap on top of it"

"I better get paid a bonus worth it," said Tox "Wouldn't et a date from that busy ass schedule of his And fro for your obituary"

"C'irl dream"

"Good Then we're all of one et this shi+t started"
