"...Please Elaborate..." Kylia says, motioning for Kaga to go on and not delay the explanation of such a thing any further.

"Well basically since this is a game we don't really have a base cost, you know something required for food and stuff like that, so these guys offer services right? What if the guilds basically dropped their prices to rock bottom, after all if the item you want is cheap enough for you to buy in game then no one's gonna pay real money for it." Kaga replies "the other source of income is power leveling what if Canard helps with that, most players no longer power level through money after level 70 or so anyways. If Canard offers it for free then these guys aren't going to make a profit and will lose the profit they expected and with all the fancy coding and equipment I'd imagine a couple of quarters with almost no income will nearly bankrupt the company."

"Canard is generous, but I do not think that their members are going to provide charity for millions of players that are too lazy to operate themselves. Further...to convince the other merchant groups to drop prices to minimums will be difficult with the human need for acquisition of wealth. I like the plan, but reality will make it exceedingly difficult to accomplish." Kylia says, exhaling in thought.

"Getting the merchants to drop their prices will actually be relatively easy, first of all most merchants are losing the majority of their business anyways, plus is we create a sort of fund to help make up for the loss of money using the resources of Kestral and Neux we should be able to maintain a low enough price curve to beat out the RMTs." Kaga replies taking almost a governmental approach to this .
"As far as the power leveling goes, Canard and Moon Tree can work together on it, most players don't want power leveling in the first place since they are on to play with their friends or to get stronger, besides Canard can't back out of an alliance of the other three guilds and they too have merchants who are being hurt." Kaga explains.
"The role belongs to Neux primarily which is the targetting of players who buy from the shops and an open announcement of it, even if you're going to get power leveled and rare items if your suddenly a target of the entire Neux guild it's not really worth it." Kaga explains "We will also offer protection to those who are willing to either sever ties with the RMTs or who don't purchase from them in the first place."

"While that seems a solid plan in concept, again I find that it will be exceedingly hard to do. Gaining the alliance of Neux alone is a daunting task" Kylia says.

"If I could get their cooperation would you agree to it?" Kaga asks in reply "Besides this is an option that doesn't require an all out war, it is the most effective option."

"Yes. This hacker problem is one that must be dealt with quickly" Kylia says firmly

*A books suddenly appears in Kaga's hand, after looking at the content he drops the book in suprise.*
"What the?" He looks suprised.
*If Baina looked down at the book she would see the words Dekar, guardian (ceased), Baina, Goddess (Dead)*

"..What was that?" Kylia says, seeing Kaga's startled expression aroused her suspicion.

"It's a book from Library of Balbol, I set it up to monitor the conditions of the people I know. It tells me if something unusual happens to one of them. But this...well, Dekar appears to be in a completely conconscious comatose state, in game and out, and Baina's well according to this dead." Kaga replies in utter amazement, Dekar falling was hard enough to believe but Baina's death was something else entirely.

"I suppose, I've never heard of those two biting it before. Did it ever happen in R:2?" Kaga asks not entirely sure how to respond to this.

Kylia stands near the throne, and calls Kaga to the field. She had something on her mind for quite a while, and had to talk with the boy about it

*Kaga walks in scratching the back of his head.*
"Sorry it took so long, Crystallia and I were taking care of our new "daughter"." He sighs looking around. "So what's up?" He asks curiously.

"...Tell me something, who is your mother?" Kylia asks, putting forward a very odd question, staring Kaga down

"Well I'd say Sanae would be the closest thing I have since she's the one who really raised me, but if you mean biologically wouldn't it have to be Chika? I mean Dekar's my dad." He replies not entirely understanding where this was going.

"...You have to question who the biological is?" Kylia says, scrutinizing the glare further and scanning Kaga for telltale signs of lyin

"Like I said wouldn't it be Chika? I mean she's Samantha's mom and my father's wife wouldn't that make her my mother?" Kawaru asks really not understanding where this was going but he was starting to wonder if there was a point to this.

Kylia says nothing but sends a flash mail to Alkaid asking her to come to Kestrel

It takes a while for Alkaid to answer, since she rarely ever played the game anymore except to get some updates. She gates into the Kestrel HQ, walking toward Kylia, an odd person to flash mail her. "What is it?" she asks.

"Tell me something...how many children have you had?" Kylia says, squinting her eyes and starin down Alkaid

Alkaid blinks, looking seriously confused as Kylia asked this question out of the blue. "What is this about?" she demands, not giving the question a proper answer.

"Samantha. But you should already know that. Why are you asking me?" Alkaid demands again, getting a little irritated by these unusual questions.

"My son?" Alkaid repeats, her irritation turning to confusion. "I don't have a son." she states plainly, not sure what else to say.

"So Kaga is not your child...I see.." Kylia says disheartened. "...But Kaga does insist that Dekar is his father...so this leaves me confused"
