>'Scars of Yesterday, Death on Six Legs, stand down.'
Without a moment's hesitation, the ants, a brief moment ago ready to enter mortal combat with Motörhead, relax, and step away.
>'...Perhaps you can come inside. I feel somewhat exposed outside, with the Mandarinian Empire's servants so ever-present here.'
Scars of Yesterday looks to KILLER QUEEN, worry radiating from him.
'I am sorry, but I must protest, my queen. It is still unknown whether this Motörhead can be trusted inside Crescent.'
Oddly enough, Motörhead seems to agree.
'Your warrior-Scars of Yesterday, was it?- is right, and I would not wish to impose. Besides, as long as you do not get near the flower blossoms, the servants of the Empire you see above will ignore you. They are not particularly mentally acute. We can talk in the open here without fear of them going to their masters with word of our presence.'
>'You have mentioned 'Valiance,' and that Scars of Yesterday possesses it. Could you explain what this 'Valiance' is?'
'To a degree, certainly. Valiance.... well, valiance is different for each individual, and has been known to manifest in many races, but usually it is found more commonly in the larger and more powerful races. As I had mentioned before, no ant has ever been noted to have possess Valiance before, and I imagine that Scars of Yesterday is likely the first ant in history to have it. I imagine that was your saving grace, as the Mandarinian warriors would never think to look to an ant colony for the source of a threat sufficient to kill one of their warriors.
It... is usually somewhat difficult for non-Valiant individuals to perceive who does and does not have Valiance, but any Valiant can readily identify other with Valiance. As to what Valiance is... as I said, it manifests differently for each individual, but it blesses those who possess it with extraordinary abilities, usually oriented around mobility, attack or defense.
Ah, actually, there is a way to identify Valiance, at least in smaller races such as ours. For most smaller races, those who Possess Valiance will have a bright golden coloration. I think that is all I can explain of Valiance to you, and you would need to speak to an expert to learn more.'
Motörhead strikes himself in the head.
'I am sorry, I was distracted by these revelations. Since you are responsible for the events that transpired recently, I have a message for you. I come as a representative of The Collective, and have a reward to offer your colony, as we have a standing bounty on all Mandarinian Warriors.'
