"As I remember the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact was merely a ploy to buy the Furher more time against the Imperialist powers. We later invaded the Soviet Union, a campeign that ended in disaster due to poor leadership in the lower chains of command. Had I been activated for that campeign you would not be sitting here right now. Or is there a different reason for your suggestion?"

"From our understanding of history, which comes from a Stalinist perspective, it was to buy time, since neither power was really prepared at that point to fight one another, and also from our point of view...the soviet union could have ground you into the dirt, without the capitalist powers. I believe Germany was pushed back to Poland before D-day. I may be mistaken about such things, and our vision of history may not be the same as yours....but...well that is not important..."
I put some pencils in the holder and continue to speak.
"We simply are not prepared to fight national socialism right now, so we are trying to be peaceable. This may not be lasting, but it will last as long as other threats exist in the world...such as capitalism...."

"That notion is understandable. I have also seen reports of other facists, misguided facists that is, that oppose the rule of Red Infinity. Can you give me one reason why I would not better serve them than you?"

Winter didnt really want to return to the nymphs...so she walks back to the rebel base.
Maybe she could learn something new.
She was always looking for knowledge...
She sees Brady holding Lysander and walks up to them.
-Hey! Don't hold him that way.-
Winter says grubbing the baby from Brady and holding Lysander in her arms gentlelly.
-Give that here.-
She takes the bottle from him and makes sure it's not too hot.
After Winter puts the bottle to Lysander's mouth but he doens't drink it. He was probably full.
She pats his back and he burps before gnawing on her neck.
-Where's Helene?-
Winter asks Brady.

These questions are certainly challenging. I pause for a moment to think about it.
"You speak of L.I.F...well, they are fascists, but I doubt that even one of them has read the works of Hitler or Mussolini. They have no ideological vision but to kill all races but humans. Even I have a better understanding of fascism and why it appeals to people. I know that it is not about killing certain races, but strengthening the state and military via a command economy that people may seek glory through a state that represents the triumphs of humanity. Glories found only through war and the greatness of power. You can not join LIF since they do not have this vision. They are nothing but a bunch of thugs. I am afraid that you are ideologically isolated, but at least here, you will find those with the political saavy to understand you."
Most of what I told her was from my vague memories of reading Mussolini. But it was something. Hopefully enough.

I think for a second. Then the girl finally speaks up in quiet, broken, heavily accented English: "I understand. We may be enemies, but I have orders from my Furher, Adolf Hitler, to obey the Furher-Linsat. I guess this means that I must obey you too..."

"We embrace your service, but I understand how hard it must be to exist here today. You are politically isolated. You could someday join the rag tag fascist wanna bes, LIF, but I hope that you find purpose with us. We are not so dissimilar. We both believe in a powerful state and a command economy. If ideologies evaporated, the structure of a communist state and a nazi one, are nearly the same. But, I will do the best I can to see that you are content with your work for us."
I hand her a key and a slip of paper.
"That is your room number and key, so you can live here if you care to."

The computer voice speaks again. "That would be a wise idea, Rumania is simply too remote of a location for my operations. I require access to a central information net to ease my communications. This briefcase contains a transmitter that links me to the Core, however the Core is outdated, as well as two thousand miles distant. Now understand, I am what you humans would refer to as software, a program so complex that it requires a human brain to function. That is the purpose of the girl. She requires a nutrient-enriched glucose solution to survive. I trust this will not be difficult to obtain?"

"I will see that some is produced by the Ministry of Health." I look at my watch.
"I must get home, I have not seen Hikari in days. If you need anything more you can talk to Lin-Sat."
I escort her out of my office and lock the door. I say goodbye and then teleport home.

"Sieg heil!" the girl states as she salutes Lady Violet. She then proceeds to find her new quarters. I walk slowly due to my atrophied muscles, however after sitting for over 500 years any movement is a blessing...

Everything starts to get clear, while Grim walk the corridor to the library. He was in great thoughtfulness. in his head was a vison of serval ancient runes, those runes was a grat puzzle leading one of the artifacts of power, he stopped for a momment and said to himself "A no kirmanptul" what in ancirnt language means "rough nut to crack"....

Kai threw a knife at Dionysus's eye since it was wide open. It was coming to fast to dodge.
Hopefully this will work...
((I am aware of that))

Dionysus blinks, his eyelid deflecting the knife away.
"Going to keep trying for my eye then? Forget it, I'm not going to get hit there again."
The dragon whips around, it's great tail sweeping arouns for Kai.

I am going to beat the sh*t out of you, you know that right?
Kai got hit by the tail but held onto it and jumped to Dionysus's neck. He held his eyelid open and attempted to stab him.
You bast*rd

I don't know. I think she left to somewhere. So will I!
I rush off to the rebel base. I see that Usha has drawn Frosty the snowman. It covers the whole wall.
Wow... that's very... SUPER! Yay for Usha!
I jump up and down.
--- Richie ---
I turn around.
" I am looking for a girl named... "
I check what I wrote on my arm.
" Hikari. Her! Right there! " I point to her and take out a bouquet of flowers out of my palm.
" For you, Miss. "
--- Irvine ---
I pick a shard off glass off the ground and I slit my wrist. I don't feel any pain at all. I feel an increase of power.
Whoa. That's awesome.
