[Resist: Seraphic Aura] skill learned

+2 [Wisdom]

+4 [Tenacity]

[Tenacity]: is the baseline measure of a person's mental strength in the eyes of others. As a socially oriented skill, higher [Tenacity] will only impact how denizens of this reality view you.

Some skills, traits, and tasks may only be provided at certain [Tenacity] ratings.

The messages faded away as I tried to look over the person's shoulder. This was my first encounter with the [Seraphic] outside of Dusk's theoretical genetics. My [Messenger's Pet] was completely oblivious to the [Seraphic]'s presence. His [Tenacity] must be through the roof. It couldn't be [Wisdom], Dusk got in a fight with everything that moved. Even now he was rocking toward a [ByteMite] cleaning the theater steps.

"Welcome, Commander Queenshand, Pattern Smith Jeeves, Rear Assaulter Hermes." The well of darkness used that dreadfully gross title. I felt one step away from being in a bad porn movie. Our speaker sounded vaguely like a man, but distortion made it difficult to tell.

"Seraphic Nox, I am here once again to formally request access to the Mistborn," the upright Commander stated. She looked angry at having to stand in the midst of all these people.

"It has always been the decision of this council to deny all children of our reality access to creatures such as the Mistborn," the [Seraphic] said. I felt confused about the lack of a health bar or name tab above this Nox person.

"I cannot sit by and allow her gifts to be squandered on their kind once again." Commander Queenshand stood tall, even in the face of such a mesmerizing existence. Now that my head was clearer it was easy to appreciate how this game had drawn me in.

"You have little choice," the creature known as Nox said. "Violation of the laws has consequences."

I tilted my head and Dusk shifted his weight while mirroring the perplexed look. Jeeves looked in our direction but said nothing. Looking at the [Seraphic] hurt far less, and small indicators to one side showed the [Resist: Seraphic Aura] going up in chunks.

"Very well. I assume any attempt at making you see reason will be met with failure as always." She set her jaw and kept an unblinking glare on the person made of darkness. "My troops and I will be removing ourselves from this sector shortly."

Commander Queenshand turned and marched right out. The movements of the troops following her were well paced and fluid. Without an [Inspection] skill, I had to guess at their actual abilities. Whatever classes they were programmed with must be high.

Nox turned to the crowd of [Mechanoid]s who stood watching. The mess of mechanical beings shared the same general passive expression. They seemed to be witnesses to our situation, but little more.

"Take note, members of the Wayfarer Seven Consortium. There will be trouble."

"There is always trouble." Treasure, Emerald, Ruby, and Iron somehow shared the sentence between them. After echoes of paired voices filled the stage.

Behind the rows of [Mechanoid]s sat the [Wayfarer Seven]'s walls, giving a finite size to our stage. It looked like the five [Mechanoid]s standing in the first row were considered more important.
