[There's a bit of a hesitant pause, before;]

I do feel like we can say with a relative amount of certainty that there is some sort of higher power in Taeum, presumably the Highest One that Angrial refers to, and they seem, based on what Finn and I sensed, to have an Orb. I'm not sure what that means for reports of the orb potentially being in Sedorum, but frankly, this whole situation is bullshit and if there are in fact two orbs or two parts of one whole orb that we have to figure out a way to combine, I wouldn't be surprised.

In any case, this is Trafalgar Law, reporting in that Daisy, Finn, Cora and myself have been branded traitors and taken into custody for attempting to breach the area where the orb is contained. I don't have access to my abilities and I assume the same goes for the other three.
[A long pause where Law presumably just silently ruminates on the fact that he has ended up in Heaven Jail and really of course this would happen.]

This is not a request for a rescue, simply something to keep in mind as work to find the orb continues. As well as a test on my part to confirm that our comms are still functional from in here.

[ETA: Despite what Law says there is now an OOC plotting post re: potential jailbreak ideas.]

[Look, she's no stranger to death! She just doesn't think murder is the best solution most of the time.]

Exactly. In theory, if we could arrive on a planet and get to the orb before anyone else found it, we could just take it, but that hasn't happened so far.

I imagine it's easier for someone on the planet to find the orb than it is for the crew of the Ximilia to locate it from outer space, so that makes sense. But then I'm hardly an expert on how any of this works.

[bindsthedead]

I was thinking more about how the orbs want to be used. So by the time we arrive, they've generally reached out to someone and made a bargain already.

[kikoku]

Essentially you're saying we can't get here fast enough to beat them to it, is what you're saying?

[bindsthedead]

Exactly. In every case, a deal had been struck before our arrival- centuries ago, in the case of Braccia.

[kikoku]

So it's just going to keep being like this, is what you're saying. We just have to take whatever situation the orb and the person who has it throws at us.
