UNAFFILIATED CONTACT     IF YOUR DESIRED INTERACTION IS TIME-SENSITIVE, PM US FIRST TO WORK OUT THE DETAILS. CREE. Owner of the discreet Gilded Cage hideout. Cree has traveled all of El Nysa and established his spies, or "little birds" in every corner of the world. He knows intimate details about important figureheads of both factions, and suspects that the refugees are not all that they seem to be. Despite being a known criminal and the apparent orchestrator of the VIOLET 2710 attacks, he provides work for the lower class and seems to have a generally positive reputation. He has a strong dislike for Ashti. Cree is almost never seen without a small bird on his shoulder. You might find that you have seen this bird before, and if you listen closely enough, you will hear it speak common to its owner. If you specifically request contact with the the bird alone, it is entirely possible it will carry out a conversation with you. A character's first interaction with Cree is free of any favor, but they will be required to take up a job (thief, enforcer, informant) before they can return for more information. Sign up at the EMPLOYMENT THREAD and direct any other inquiries by characters here. IC consequences for breaking silence on his whereabouts to their other NPCs will be discussed by PM.

[As soon as Yona was properly resting and safe, and Jae-Ha felt that she had enough eyes watching her to keep her out of trouble, he came to this place. He intends to work and help how he can, but he can't do anything unless he knows a little more. It's been frustrating trying to make heads or tails of things with only hearsay to go off of.

And as much as he's been flying around, he's seen plenty of birds, so he barely gives this one a glance before addressing Cree.]

Yo. [Might as well say hi first, even if this is the first 'free' convo. He can only imagine what favors would be requested.] It's not very beautiful to unleash an illness on the general public of any city, regardless of your intentions. If this was just trying to find the cure, it seems all wrong. So what was it for, really?

[nysan]

[ Such a casual greeting, with a subject so morose. Cree resists the temptation to smile, instead raising his arms in a helpless gesture. ]

It's not very beautiful that it was created in the first place, is it? This toxin was to be unleashed one way or another, and it's better for you all that it was done now. Making its distribution equal was the only way to ensure a cure would be found, rather than let one city suffer while the other takes such an unfair advantage.

Your friend... she's getting by, isn't she? Imagine if she'd gotten sick during a war.

[razzledazzles]

How do you know—

[It's useless, he thinks, questioning that, and his eyes flick back to that bird in vague memory, fingers clenching into fists at his sides.] Don't bring her into this.

I'm not so naive to think that there was necessarily a way to avoid this tension at all, but you don't get to decide what was better for anyone other than yourself.
