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!))

"That's right! Perhaps a few of you are peaceful, perhaps not!" the ringleader continued. "But you can't deny that a lot of you are dangerous, and unpredictable! At least we know what type of enemy the Anoli are!"

"I won't defend that girl's actions. No one should have been aiming to kill, on either side." Minako says this firmly.

"But, there are dangerous people in any group. The Anoli are also citizens of your city. Should I assume all native citizens of Hinoto-ri are dangerous because of what they've done?"

Saiduq gave Minako a warm, private smile, which faded as he looked back to the mob.

"Mankind is a varied lot of individuals. To place so many under one title is foolhardy, when people within the same group often do not share the same will, dreams, or beliefs."

"I heard from a friend at the hospital that there were more casualties caused by the Visitors than there were caused by the Anoli! They saw their opportunity for blood-shed and ran with it, I say!"

"The Anoli hadn't done anythin' for ages before the tournament happened! It was because of the Visitors that the mayor thought he could call 'em out and that they showed up at all!"

"And that was the Mayor's decision, not the Visitors. As for your friend at the hospital," she turns to the woman, "Was she there at the stadium too, watching what happened? Because I only saw Visitors fighting the Anoli."
