Who: Al Saiduq (NPC version), generic NPC civilians, and you!
Where: Libra Ward, anywhere within it.
Summary: There still seems to be some civil unrest in Hinoto-Ri. You may want to help that floating albino guy deal with it...
Warnings: Possible discussions of the Anoli attack, NPCs being NPCs.

Saiduq was not one who...walked. He could do the motion like most other humanoid-beings, but it felt awkward and unnatural to one who was not beholden to gravity. If he wanted to go from point A to point B, he teleported, or flew. That was it. Even Hinoto-Ri hadn't given him a need to alter that pattern.

Apparently that had drawn the ire of a few people, however, given he'd been all but dragged in to an anti-Guests conversation. And yet, despite the nature of the conversation, he didn't seem aware that his hovering and curious, neutral speaking tone were just irritating the citizens even more. If anything, he just seemed to grow even more confused as the civilians grew more aggravated. Dare you get involved?

((If you tag in, we'll set up the overheard conversations. So, please wait for both the NPC and this account to tag before responding!))

"We have upheld the protection of this city, in spite of our status as Visitors. Is that not proof of trust?"

He wouldn't seem to address the other aspects, for some reason...

"It's not as if we're trying to treat you differently. We didn't ask to be brought here, anyway. If it's someone you should be angry with, it's the one who brought us here. Arriving here wasn't under our control."

Not that he thinks any of these people can do anything against Philemon, but redirecting their anger is a good idea at this point.

"The government won't tell us who brought you here! How can we trust that they didn't just yank you here themselves for some, some selfish reason?" the ringleader snapped back, waving a hand about passionately as the crowd behind him grumbled in agreement. "We don't know anything and we want answers!"

"The one who brought Visitors here was Philemon."

Short, sweet, and to the point.

"He is the one who holds mankind within his mind- and is the father of Persona."
