A message from mine own Leader. They had told me to speak of this to my fellow participants.
[ So... let's see if this is news to him or not! ]
I would warn them to ware who they target, lest they eliminate all the numbers of any given team. Should that happen, those members will not be revived, in the end.
Makes sense. There are a few teams that have really low numbers. Those are teams we're hoping to avoid, just in case. [the idea of not reviving any of them is just terrible.]
The teams that still have to kill seem to have a good grasp on the numbers. But I'll be sure to let them know for sure.
... That is good, then. [ """Good.""" ] I knew not if they were aware of the numbers, but regardless, 'tis information of great import to know of, regardless of whether they do or do not.
Yeah. You don't have to worry about that. There are those who have been keeping track of the number for some time. They're being watched closely to protect those teams as well as we can.
I think it's likely because it is. Especially since this isn't the first time we've done this at all. Things went poorly the last time, so we have to keep going this way to make them right.
[ you know what? fuck it. i'm just gonna pretend this isn't gonna cause a thread time paradox. it's too 4am to care about that right now, so the hand that pets at Miketsuchi pauses, and Alphinaud lifts his head, eyebrow raised. ]
Me either. It's...in a way, it does make some sense. I can understand why we would have said yes to repeating the cycles. But it doesn't make it any less shocking.
We failed. It's hard to say how, but from what I understand we weren't able to eliminate all of the destabilized people. In at least one cycle, we could only save half of the people left.
Every time, the answer's the same. We couldn't save everybody.

Was this truly the only way this could have been done?

I had been wondering—if others' decided this is what must be done because it is, or if it were simply the easiest option given to us.

... I had seen evidence this is not the first competition of its kind—but I assumed... it had to have happened with a different group.

'Tis naught to apologize for. I am... surprised, is all. Never would I have guessed...

I wonder... if we are on the correct path this time.
