Initially, she had been horrified by the prophesy and then again by the suggestion of stealing Lookshy's craft. To take something that they had oviously poured a great deal of blood sweat and tears into building went against her nature, she could imagine what it would mean to them as a nation, being a ruler herself, it was easy to emphasize. On top of that was the fact that she risked drawing the ire of such a powerful nation directly down on Sanctum by her collusion in the act was a risk she was not willing to take. Atleased, that had been her inital thought, as the discussion continued and they resolved that the prophesy spoke of the fall of the Great Maker, she felt ice trickle down her spine, to her, that changed everything, to allow him to fall and join the enemy was a risk they, and creation could not afford. Not at any cost, it was a perfect nightmare for everyone, including Sanctum, if any of them were going to have a future, they needed to prevent this catastrophe.<br/><br/>Resolved, Vali stepped forward, clearing her throat to draw the attention of the gathering. "I fear some of you are looking at this the wrong way.<em>If Lookshy can be saved</em>, is less the question than if we<em>should</em>. I would like nothing better than to aid them against their oncoming doom, we could win powerful allies, but we must prioritize here, saving a tree matters little if the forest burns. We do not know what time line we are operating with here, how long do we have? Would any of you beable to live with yourselves if you wasted a season to save lookshy, and doomed all of Creation as a result? The fall of the Great Maker is a threat to all things that cannot be underestimated. To prevent that i would tear that entire city down with my own two hands, and it would be a small sacrifice to make to save All. My heart goes out to them, truely, but we can ill afford to tarry there long. I say we should attempt to convince them to give it to us, and if that fails, then we should take it by any means necessary, then head north, to face the far greater threat than the fall of one nation, one people, among many. Once the ship is in our hands, by all means, warn them of their doom, prophesy is a fickle thing, perhaps forewarning will be enough, but we most certainly should not tell them before then, because they will not give us the vessel if they know they are in extreme danger."
