[video] July 11th, morning.

[The video on the PDA flickers once or twice. A hand blocking the screen moves away to reveal a corner of blue sky and an extremely tired face. The face in question belongs to a young woman with short black hair. Naoto looks beat up, worn, as if she had just come out of a fight.]

Is...this on?

[She blinks at the screen a couple of times, hesitating a little bit more before plunging on.]

I'm sorry, but I won't fight your battles. That's something the people in this city should do. I have to do something back home and...I have to get back. I have to save them.

[A pause. Her face is darkening now and her mouth is set into a hard line.]

Please. Return my katana to me. Now.

[there's a small sigh. pause.]

You have a war at home, aru? Is that it?

[Naoto! Naoto's here now! So many people Nill cares about seem to be showing up lately... The fact that she sounds upset doesn't stop her from flailing on the other end of the feed, though.]

If you won't fight, you'll have to wait until those who do succeed. That's all there is to it.

[Oh, great, another one looking for a sword.]

::A young man's dusky voice speaks over the PDA. It's tone is cool, calm, and collected.::

The established government here will not require you to fight their war, however, you will not be able to return home until the battle is won in their favor.

Hey if they give you back your katana could you ask them to give me back my hammer too?

[a slightly tired looking face is looking down before it gives a weak smile]

I wish it were as simple as that, but it's not I'm afraid. All of us are stuck here.

[Video] orz late! sorry!

[smokeeasy]

Huh. [Takes a long, unhurried drag on his smoke.]

Guess that desert wind does blow in the damnedest things, doesn't it?

[The mention of a katana caught his attention, albeit not in the same way it would have done twelve hours earlier.]

Whoever has it, they're not listening here.

If you want a sword you'll have to meet one.
