[voice] 001

[Councilman Palpatine's voice is a familiar enough one. Like some old timers, he has a penchant for using the voice function of the Warp Band; video is still quite new to him. However, he sounds relaxed today. Even a little grandfatherly.]

Good evening, people of Union. I hope that this finds you well. I know the last few weeks have been trying. The tragedy that befell our city was felt by everyone, and all of our lives were touched by it... and, I think, by the aid so generously brought by our allies.

[Enough of that.]

I'm hoping to submit several proposals to the Council for the rebuilding of the city. One concern that we should consider is defense -- how to prevent attacks like that, and, should one occur again, reduce the loss of life.

I thought I should ask all of you what sorts of defenses you might see. Shelters and evacuation routes seem necessary, first and foremost, I think.

Hmm. Yes. We would want to send a delegation, then. And... some engineers, to make certain that it is stable.

[He remembers the earthquakes.]

[lunchleader]

I can help translate if the delegation can't find anyone else.

[ruleoftwo]

That would be truly kind of you. Not all of us can do that.

[...nevermind that Palpatine can but. Shh.]

[lunchleader]

It's no problem, really. I know not everyone is a Psychic-type or a Kindred Soul, and I even got a friend who used to live in the Old City, so maybe she can help make connections.

[ruleoftwo]

Ah, I see... if you were to ask this friend, it would be a great help. We could make the connections we need. Do you think she would be amenable?

[lunchleader]

Probably! I think she only bonded with me because she chose me as her human - you know how feline Pokemon can be sometimes.

[ruleoftwo]

I certainly do. They can be... finicky.
