Tyranny, meet anarchy

[aestrix]

The city of Eantasyl is fortunate in its placement, and is considered old for even an elven city. The streets are some kind of shimmery stone, the buildings neatly arranged and well maintained. It's pleasant, and generally considered a nice place for the rich to retire. There's a noticeable lack of greenery and foliage on the streets themselves - the place is kept very dense, and it's can be guessed that its citizens thought they had enough foliage already. It sits at the base of one of the very first world trees. One could be forgiven for missing the city for the tree - it's several thousand feet tall, and its branches bring shade to more than half of Eantasyl. They do not need gardens. They have enough to spare, up in the sky.

(The leaves are a pain to rake.)

Despite many of its flaws (and there are many) the Sunrise Empire isn't actually a horrible place to live. This place especially. Just steer clear of the government, keep your head down, don't join any rebellions, and don't break any laws, and you'll be fine. Probably. Unless there are dangerous criminals running around, causing trouble.

But that hardly ever happens. The Ministry has it all under control.

"Sure thing, here you go," he says, and the taser gun goes Jinxward.

[itstandsforjinx]

Jinx takes the offered handle, and zaps Kuvair as soon as the gun slaps into her hand. There's no room or chance to dodge: Jinx just holds the trigger down until Kuvair stops moving, tracking as necessary until he's incapacitated or dead, whichever comes first.

She sighs again.

[aestrix]

Incapacitated comes first!

"I'm sorry," says Inavet, softly.

[itstandsforjinx]

Jinx nudges Kuvair with one combat-booted foot.

"Well."

Jinx looks over at Inavet.

"Do what you can for poor Mr. Doubly-Brainwashed here. I have bigger problems to deal with."

A small smile has risen to her lips.

"I will. I'll let you know if I get him doubly un-brainwashed, too." She considers Jinx. "Do you want my communication crystal, so you can access the forum where you're going?"

[itstandsforjinx]

Jinx shrugs. "Thanks for the offer, but I can always make a new scanner to connect up with the forum."

She walks over to her green box, and casts one last look over her shoulder at the unconscious Kuvair.

"... Alright then. See you."

[poll_the_stars]

"Good luck," says Inavet. "Bye."

(Kuvair is still unconscious. He will stay like that for a while.)

[itstandsforjinx]

The green box Vworps out of existence, along with Jinx.

[poll_the_stars]

...

Right.

Okay.

That was a good result of that interaction, she thinks.

Now to figure out what to do from here.
