Sora shook her head in a slow curve from side to side. She really wished the Ancients Reborn had more sense at this stage. She jumped up and pursued him, though the pursuit was less about catching and more about keeping him and others from harm. Faster than a human she closed the distance quickly, catching a Naga stumbling backwards, darting to stop the crockery of liquid from spilling and otherwise providing mass damage control. She circled around until she was behind him. Three other Gatherers, off-duty, in garb much like her own and one wearing his cloak assessed the situation and surrounded him. They stayed outside of his blade’s radius, waiting and alert.
The rest of the crowd backed away, calmly returning to their shops or homes. This was Gatherer’s business and one human was obviously no hindrance to four Gatherers.
“I ssave your life and you return the favor by threatening ourss? That iss not how I wass taught the Ancientss behaved.”
If she could get him to see reason it would be better than attacking. Naga did not assault Ancients were there any other way to make them see sense.
“We mean you no harm, but we will defend ourselvess and our familiess. Lay the knife down. You are here becausse of your power. We protect and provide ssome guidancce for thosse like you. Lay down the knife and be calm. We will take you to where you can get answerss about who you are and the power insside of you.”
She and the other Gatherers were each as different as could be in size and scale, but there was a solidarity of purpose behind their unblinking eyes. Even if they had to overcome him forcibly, they were here to protect, not harm. 'Long live the Ancients Reborn, even the most stubborn, high-pitched screaming, irrational ones'.
