Things got... spotty.

ALTERNIA WAS MY HOME. I NEVER ASCENDED TO BATTLESHIP, BUT I LIVED IN THE LOWER COLONY.

..THAT DOES MAKE THINGS A LITTLE COMPLICATED, THOUGH. I DON'T THINK I'VE SEEN ANY VERSION OF THE EMPRESS AROUND IN A LONG TIME. I THINK SHE GAVE UP INTERACTING WITH MOST OF US WHEN SHE REALIZED WE WERE INACCESSIBLE TROLLPOWER.

UM. YOUR EMPRESS IS ALIVE, RIGHT?

You will have to tell us more about the battleship and the lower colony. We do not have that. If we do? They do not go by those names. Alternia is a familiar name to us both. That is convenient. We are assuming you are a troll. All of us are.

Our Empress is alive. We do not think that has changed since we last spoke to her. It has been a while since such occurred. We do know she is quite difficult to kill. So we have faith she is still alive.

Is your Empress dead?

IF THAT'S THE CASE, I'D ASSUME I MIGHT KNOW OF THEM, OR AT LEAST SOME VARIANT OF THEIRS. PEOPLE DON'T TALK ABOUT EMPIRES LIGHTLY, ANYMORE, SO THE FEW ROYALS THAT EXIST ONLINE TEND TO MAKE THEMSELVES PRETTY OBVIOUS.

..I'VE BEEN AROUND A LONG TIME, AT LEAST. SO. WHERE ARE YOU FROM? MAYBE WE HAVE SOMETHING IN COMMON.

You know, I would think they'd try to hide it. Nobility isn't usually beloved by all. And even if they were, telling everyone of your status makes you a mark for every crime under the moons. That's the problem we've come across. Our person isn't that obvious. She's choosing not to be. At least, for us.

But sure. You might know the Empress. We kind of hope you do.

Where we're from is a loaded question, but we'll give an easier answer. You ever heard of Asidea? Alternia? Either one works.

OH. OH! FIVE. THAT'S A LOT OF PEOPLE? I GUESS BEING AN EMISSARY IS SO BIG A JOB, THAT, UH. YOU NEED A LOT OF PEOPLE. TO DO ALL PARTS OF IT. OR.. YEAH.

SO.

DOES HAVING A BLOG.. BENEFIT YOUR INVESTIGATION?

IF SOMEONE'S HARD TO FIND, I FEEL LIKE THEIR SOCIAL MEDIA WOULDN'T BE ANY EASIER TO TRACE. SINCE. THE ANONYMITY OF IT ALL.

We used to have six. That was the perfect number.

Our actual occupations are much more difficult than this, but we do what we can with them. To be the face of the House and the Empire is not difficult. It is making sure we stay as such that is troublesome.

We feel that we will find our target easier this way, actually. All leads on other sites became dead ends, and in truth, we heard of this platform from our target directly. We would search the physical timeline in person if we could... but we have had issues with keeping connections. The fact that we are finally able to break through and keep contact with someone is promising. If we cannot find our target through these initial means, but we can keep the connection during it, then we stand a very good chance to keep that connection should we move to the next phase of our search.

Also, our target is not anonymous. They are, frankly, the most well-known person in our Empire, if not the entire cosmos.

OH. UH. YEAH, I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS. BUT, YOU KEEP SAYING 'WE'. ARE THERE.. MULTIPLE OF YOU? OR. IS THAT JUST LIKE. A PRONOUN THING.

quinquevirate

There are multiple of us! Five of us, right now. This isn't a pronoun thing. More like... being honest! We've been handing this off between each other while we've been investigating, and now we're doing the same to talk to you!

#chlorophasmic #We are not so clever in our pronoun usage.#But we could be the royal we too! Haha!
