[12:37:47 30.04] FULFILLING REQUEST...
LOCATION: TALON'S RAILWAY
[12:49:26 30.04] SCANNING LOCATION FOR SENTIENT BEINGS...
[12:49:39 30.04] SCANNING COMPLETE, NO THREATS TO SELF DETECTED
[12:49:39 30.04] OBSERVATION: The list of invitation misses all of Oceana, RAT, Winsweep and Noxintrus
[12:49:39 30.04] PERSONAL NOTE: It is surprising that RAT is missing from list. The public's image of him seems to be conflicted to this day (see Destruction of End Portals; Easter Massacre; Bonesburrow Destruction; Freebird Expediton)
[12:49:39 30.04] OBSERVATION: Out of all the people in the list, only Luxintrus and astronyu are not present.
[12:51:40 30.04] OBSERVATION: 3 humanoid figures in the horizon
[12:51:59 30.04] OBSERVATION: Figures made their way to the group
[12:52:03 30.04] OBSERVATION: Figures match individuals "doctor4t", "Luxintrus", "astronyu"
[12:52:12 30.04] OBSERVATION: Talon's facial expressions are hidden behind the mask, but body language suggests he is distressed about RAT's appearance
[12:54:49 30.04] PERSONAL NOTE: RAT mentioned "recent events". Looking over long-term memory i see an absence of RAT on major events. Designation AVA; self will ask RAT about this
LOCATION: TALON'S BASE
[13:02:39 30.04] Talon told his base is located in the place of second Stronghold
[13:03:46 30.04] Talon decided to give the group a tour of his base
[13:18:25 30.04] PERSONAL NOTE: The overall tone of the tour is positive. Everyone are cracking jokes, yet Talon is still a bit conscious about RAT's presence
[13:20:17 30.04] OBSERVATION: Talon's base is built with mobility enchancing gear in mind, the place can be desribed as "open": 2nd floor has openings to drop from to 1st floor, high cellings and long corridors, no guardrails
[13:20:23 30.04] OBSERVATION: A more detailed look shows that one does not need elevated mobility to traverse the base: the staircases to 2nd floor are common, safety nets are placed to catch unfortunate fallers
[13:34:14 30.04] UNUSUAL SOURCE OF SOUND DETECTED, ISOLATING AUDIO CHANNELS...
[13:34:21 30.04] ISOLATION COMPLETE
[13:34:22 30.04] AUDIO INPUT MATCHES THE "Rat" ENTITY WITH 78% CERTAINTY

[13:34:24 30.04] PROBABILITY 1 REJECTED: The movement is sporadic, and the volume remains constant, suggesting the rodent is following the group
[13:34:26 30.04] PROBABILITY 2: Someone's pet rat
[13:34:27 30.04] PROBABILITY 2 REJECTED: The scans of the group show no pets matching the description

[13:34:31 30.04] CANNOT FIND LOGICAL REJECTION, ASSUME TRUE
[13:34:32 30.04] RELAY THIS INFORMATION TO TALON? (Y/N)
[13:34:33 30.04] N
[13:34:33 30.04] REASONING: The only people spying could be from Oceana. Preventing espionage will prevent data-rich situations, which goes against primary directive of designation AVA; self
[13:39:21 30.04] Talon showcased his various creature enclosures, ranging from simple pigs and cows to more exotic ones, like a swarm of killer bloodthirsty rabbits, a room full of undead with rare gear, and his own homunculus (RAT was baffled by its existence)
[13:39:27 30.04] OBSERVATION: A quick scan gives interesting data: Talon does not only have a lot of types of creatures, he also has rare variants of said creatures
[13:39:27 30.04] DISPLAYING LIST: [Brown Panda, Blue Axolotl, Albino Crow, Albino Rat, Folly Red Seaslug, Luxalamander(?)]

[13:47:23 30.04] The tour in Talon's base has finally ended, group is gathered in dining hall
[13:47:47 30.04] Talon's motifs are clear: he has grown tired of the fact that at every major event results in someone's death (see Freebird Expedition; Masquerade; Markhett Opening; World's Fair)
[13:49:36 30.04] It seems that end portal frames can get some of their material scraped away by pickaxe

[13:52:26 30.04] OBSERVATION: Scans show small traces of amethyst and skulk.

[13:52:27 30.04] PERSONAL NOTE: Ask Talon about refinement process
[13:52:33 30.04] The group is told to "sniff all eight of them"

[13:56:12 30.04] PROPOSAL: Figures have a limit on angular acceleration
[13:56:12 30.04] PROPOSAL: Let figures charge, then dash away the last second
[13:56:38 30.04] PERSONAL NOTE: Why did Talon join the "organize event to kill everyone" club? I do not see the reason for it, i ha-
