A Gods Blessed Alliance
Around dinner time, all active Warp Bands come to life, a familiar visitor’s face flooding into view. Sveta looks to be broadcasting from a small, furnished room, likely provided by the council for temporary lodging. The lamplight flickers, and she takes a deep breath, smiling. She can hardly contain her excitement as she begins to speak.
“Hello citizens of Union! As you may know, my name is Sveta, a member of the Elite Four from the distant city of Ever Grande. I, along with my colleague Alina and a few others, came to you a few days ago after hearing the stories of your people, and after speaking at length with those around your beautiful city. I can say now with the utmost conviction that we wish for the same world, a place where pokémon and humans can live together in peace and prosperity. We do not have to be governed by the mistakes of the past; we can walk forward, hand-in-hand, toward a perfect and just future.
“The Gods have brought us together, the people of Ever Grande and the people of Union. I believe that now with every fiber of my being! This is divine fate, it is destiny, and we cannot ignore its call!”
Standing, the view shifts, and her expression changes slightly. While still animated, her eyes flash with excitement, and a bit of disdain.
“But there are those who would stand in our way. They place humanity’s needs first, believe that they are the true inheritors of the earth. That was the type of hubris that nearly eradicated the human race from existence. They deserved that fate. Humanity torched the soil, molded it, corrupted it, poisoned it. They attempted to play God, and they were punished for their transgressions.
The Elite Four will not stand for those that might repeat history to rise again. We, along with the people of Union, will act out the Gods’ will, for we are their chosen. It is our job, no, our duty to educate those who do not wish to see the error of their ways—if not with words, than with action. Those who oppose us will see a quick, merciless end; it is the only way.”
Throwing her arms out for emphasis, the icy crystal holding her hair back glows, and frosty fractals begin to materialize on the molding around her room. Her breath comes out in puffs as her energy level reaches a crescendo.
“That we were born in the same era is a blessing of the Gods themselves! Friends, let us create peace together, one where pokémon can live together in peace and harmony! There is no better time than now. We stand on the precipice of change, and together we can soar toward a brave new world!”
And with that, the feed ends.

Force isn't how you show someone 'the better way.' It's how you remove the competition, and make the survivors resent you with their entire beings. Maybe not openly, but still. Do you really think you can build a world of peace on that kind of resentment? This sort of logic is what we here in Union have spent the last few years fighting against. 'Join or we'll make you, actually, you didn't really have a choice' is how Gigas does things, not Union. So you suggest we adopt their tactics, start fighting fire with fire and hope the whole world doesn't burn?
Your heart seems like it's in the right place, but... you're young, and you haven't seen the things a lot of us in Union, particularly our visitors and new residents, have. There's people here who have seen the kind of 'peace' you want first hand.

[ Her smile drops a bit. ]
I'm not so young that I don't understand the harshness of this world, and what humanity's true colors are. Union has its walls to protect them from the outside world. The world is cold, heartless and deadly. You have to fight to survive.
[ Her mood shifts again, a smile creeping back onto her face. ]
We're offering another option, a ray of hope for those without any. Not everyone has the divine grace of the Gods at their backs. We want to give that to them. Surely the people of Union have to understand that.

You said you were one of the strongest in Ever Grande. Precisely how is that determined?

[ She sees that look, Gordon. She'll just smile innocently. ]

[He frowns.]
Don't confuse fear for respect. There's people whom, no matter what they do, I'll respect. Then there's things I fear. I'll still pop the ones I fear in the nose if I'm pushed hard enough.
