[A little ways inside the front gate, something strange is going on. There is an elf sitting up against the edge of the path. For those who know him, he has back the markings that vanished during the time when everyone's powers got mixed up. But that's not what's strange. What's strange is that he is not lurking and brooding, or cleaning up and brooding, or serving hot dogs and brooding (he does a lot of different things around here, and also he broods).

Instead, he is staring with a deeply quizzical expression at the five Triple Triad cards spread out in front of him. Every so often he picks one up, turns it over repeatedly in his hands, then puts it back down.

He doesn't get it.]

I see.

[But he's immediately even more on guard than before.]

How often I have heard such things. How often they are lies. Lies you believe, perhaps, but lies all the same. Call them what you will: demon, spirit, "Guardian Force." In the hands of people seeking power they bring ruin.

[She frowns a little, but her position never wavers.]

In that case the in the hands of people seeing to protect they bring safety and nothing more. Maybe there are people who'd use them for bad things, but that doesn't make the Guardian Forces themselves bad.

[She frowns a little more. obviously this isn't something she's done a lot of thinking about.]

I guess maybe they're not really good either, but neutral?

It doesn't seem fair to judge all of them, just because a few people might use them for bad things. It's not like they chose to do the actions themselves, right?

[She stands and stretches a little bit, before turning her attention back to Fenris.]

You know, I wonder. They're called Guardian Forces, right? So that must mean their main purpose has to be to protect otherwise they'd be called something besides Guardian. Don't you think?

[Rinoa logic, it's flawless. Look at that, flawless!]
