Who: Lydia Martin + you
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action:
When: March 1

What do you know about magic?
Does it exist in your world, or did you learn about it here (or in another world)?
If it exists in your world how do people get magic? Are they born with it or does something give them it? What can they do with it?
I didn't have magic at home. There were druids, but it wasn't the same.
I know that other worlds have different rules. In Asgard your abilities were nullified but the gods gave you magic. Which I still have here.
Is there a rule here for magic? Do your other abilities still exist? Has anyone been given a new power here?
It could have just been Asgard, but I'd rather make sure nothing else will happen here unexpectedly. At least about this.

Well, I can't say we have anything like magic where I'm from. I suppose you could try to explain some of the weirder stuff through magic, but I think that's just because we don't know how it actually works.

[intelligently]

What sort of 'weirder stuff' do you have?

[nextlineis]

It's a little bit of a long story, but the short version is that there's another species of people where I'm from. I don't know what they call themselves or if they call themselves anything, but we've been calling them Pillar Men since they can slumber by turning themselves into rocks.

Anyway, there's only one left still awake and alive. I've got no idea how old he is exactly, but it's well above tens of thousands. He's after a stone that he can combine with a mask to remove his weakness towards sunlight and transform himself into an unstoppable ultimate being.

That sounds like a pretty frightening things.

What happened to the others if he's the only one left?

[nextlineis]

I think most of them were wiped out by humanity or something a long time ago, but he didn't wake up alone. One of them was awakened by German soldiers in Mexico. That one was called Santana. I took him down first and he's with the Speedwagon Foundation now under UV light. From what Speedwagon tells me, he's still conscious and will absorb anything that touches the stone, but as long as he stays under the light, he'll stay dormant.

The one that's left is called Kars. He woke up in Italy with two others, Wamuu and Esidisi. It was an accident that time. After what happened in Mexico, the Germans intended to keep the Pillar Men dormant, but they found a way to trick the soldiers into waking them up and drained all of the soldiers to completely wake up. I killed Esidisi and Wamuu. Kars is supposed to fight my mother, but she told me I take over the fight for her when Kars knocks her out and put him down.

I don't know how things will change though when I go back with Caesar.

[intelligently]

If you didn't kill them would they all look for that stone?

[nextlineis]

If I had killed Kars first, they would have just been after revenge most likely. But yes. That's what they had woken up to do.
