Re: Floor B23 - City of Pasiap's Resolve, South Sector 5
As Irjin makes his report, Higura listens, his brow creasing and his frown deepening as the news come in. Not because he does not wish for a revolution - he is, in fact, deeply on the side of the workers of the Coils, who wish to end their subservience and become more autonomous. There is nothing wrong with such a thought, or at least, the Doctor cannot find something wrong with it. What worries him, however, is the method that might be employed to get there... One that might bring forth higher costs than the workers first thought.
"I see." Higura begins, once Irjin finishes. "That is indeed a worrying thought, Mister Irjin - both for your contact, and the workers themselves." He pauses, looking back towards his comrades, first Xurizu, then Talia, and finally Nanaret. He turns back to Irjin, and shakes his head softly. "I do not believe I am completely qualified to speak for everyone here - we are all standing shoulder to shoulder on equal ground, so of course, my companions are perfectly allowed to disagree with what I am about to say."
"Even from the start, I never believed our freedom was enough. All of us could, potentially find a quieter area of the Coils, and live in hiding. Or we could simply try to quietly make our way to the surface, making a little waves as possible and escaping with our lives. But I, for one, does not wish simply to be freed." He takes a deep breath looking once more in the direction of the Freerunners.
"Perhaps it is because I have been allowed to see and feel the lives of the Coils - the whole of different strands and stories that make it what it is. But I cannot simply turn my back on this place and its people, corrupted in purpose as it might have become. That is why I cannot simply turn my back on your contact, or on the people of this district. Their anger and frustration has led to this point, this act of desperation. But I cannot simply sit and condone it. I think like you do, Mister Irjin - I think that there is a way to fight for their freedom, and wanton chaos will not grant them that. Hostility will continue to spark more hostility until one side is destroyed."
"Once again, I cannot speak for my comrades. Their actions are their own, and their paths are theirs to decide. But I will help you. I will help you get your contact out, and I will help you try to calm the populace. Perhaps my training and abilities will be of some use in that endeavor."
