[ukan]

...Which robot?

[sefirot]

I believe his name is Gortys.

[ukan]

Her. That's an unprofessional opinion to make.

[Besides he's pretty sure you classify as a would be mass murderer. There's a difference.]

[sefirot]

Ah, I see.

A machine incapable of killing -- as she claims -- cannot form a real rational opinion on the subject. I told her I killed others in war and apparently that still counted in the whole "serial killer" assessment.

[ukan]

A naive assessment, but she wasn't programmed to find grey areas, I think.

Who were you at war with?

wow i somehow didn't get this notif

[sefirot]

Wutai.

[Lark didn't ask for specifics so ...]

I had to chase this one down gdi

[ukan]

[Hahaha...] In my world I think that's a music group. Yours?

what is with these notifs lately??

[sefirot]

A large nation on the western continent.

They worship a creature called Leviathan.

[ukan]

A real creature? Or simply one they imagine to explain away natural phenomena?

[sefirot]

Yes. It can be summoned if you have the materia to do so.

[ukan]

I get the feeling Shinra wouldn't enjoy that.

[sefirot]

No, but despite that Shinra won the war.

[ukan]

Despite Leviathan being a possibility, or despite the Wutai summoning it?

[sefirot]

In all honesty? Either. They would have lost either way.

[ukan]

You seem very sure of that. Who would Shinra lose against?

[sefirot]

Shinra had me. Wutai stood no chance. Shinra has mostly been brought down, but that's because those on top have been taken out of power. The city they once controlled is still there.

[ukan]

[So dry:] The city is. Are the people?

[sefirot]

Yes, but it's not in the same state as it was originally.

[ukan]

Collateral damage I suppose. [He's not a hero, and he doesn't agonize over such things.]

But I'm guessing you and Shinra parted ways after that fight?

[sefirot]

Oh, I left Shinra before that. You could say, Cloud is the one who ultimately knocked the kings off the throne.

But I did take out the President first.

[ukan]

That's a hell of a way to leave an employer. What prompted it?

[sefirot]

It was five years after I left when I killed him. As for why I left -- well, I learned a lot of truths. Shinra held many dark secrets.

[ukan]

Such as? [The Barge has plenty, too; he wonders how curious Sephiroth is.]

[sefirot]

Their army was based around human experimentation.

[ukan]

[He understands curiosity but this gets his interest. The aggressive kind, though he keeps it hidden.]

What form of experimentation?
