Cylus steps back in surprise as the sword flies through the air and embeds itself in the tree. He looks around at the passing grunts, making sure everyone was alright.
"Oops, I should probably be more careful with that."

"Some other time? I probably forgot to mention..." The cargo bay ramp fell and Marker exited into the cold air of the mountains. Buildings laid around the area, between one and four stories tall with Grunts, Pilots, and other troops rushing through the area An N7 operative walked towards the ship, only to walk past the ramp and continue going. [spoiler]Alright, it you need any visual reference for the N7's and Alliance troops, just ask. I'm just kinda hoping that you've played Mass Effect so you'll know [/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]I dabbled, but I'll go ahead and look it up[/spoiler] Cylus watched silently as the operative passed, and then turned to see all of the soldiers carry out their business.

"This is the Alliance/Militia outpost on Takatai. First steps towards a full alliance with them. You wanna learn about what made the alliance between us? Or just go to our HQ?"
-
"Could we by chance, walk and talk?"
-
"That works too." Marker started walking, passing by the rushing troops "Do I start with how the two powers met?"
-
"That would work," Cylus says, following Marker down the ramp
-
He walked through the man Made streets, the "base" was more of a small village then anything. Like a colony. "It started with out very own Jack Cooper. His arrival here with a small amount of troops marked the beginnings. He set up our first safe house, inside the dojo itself and soon after troops were coming in." "When the first few alliance operatives arrived, we left them on their own and they mostly left us. Though, somehow Cooper became involved with the Alliance and presented a potential alliance." "They needed help with the rising Cerberus threat, and the Militia needed helped against the IMC."

-
"Unknown. IMC hasn't made a move in the past two, three weeks. This outpost is the first potential move in a while."
-
"Huh, odd." Cylus notes
-
"Yeah... That's what I said. In my personal opinion, there's something going on. Maybe, the IMC is looking for Allies."
-
"Something is definitely brewing. They're hiding something."

The duo approached a set of blast doors, which opened and closed with the arrival and departure of troops. Marker and Cylus entered the front door into a large open area, with a map of the entire Milky Way in the middle of the room. Throughout the rest of the room were consoles with various things upon them. "Welcome to the main Militia hub on world."
-
Cylus gazed upon the map of the Galaxy, staring in awe. Looking around, he watched people came and went, rushing throughout the bustling hub. "This place is amazing! And Mr. Cooper did all of this?"
-
"No, he didn't. He worked with Grunts and Alliance personnel to build and design most of it, yes. Wasn't just him though." Marker pointed towards a pilot that stood at the Map. The pilot was pointing at various clusters and speaking to a group that was gathered around "That's Gates. You can't really see her from her, but she's busy. Come on, I'll introduced you to Droz first."
-
"Ah, from the ground up. I like it." he comments. As Marker and Cylus approach Droz, Cylus asks, "So is he one if the others you were talking about? The other two not in the forest?"
-
"All four I'm introducing you to are indeed part of the 6-4, part of the same group." The duo entered the armory of the headquarters and kneeling against one of the gun racks was a pilot https://imgur.com/gFz7UKU The pilot was fiddling with an assault rifle, and seemed to be in a rather uncomfortable position
-
Cylus approaches Droz, extending a hand. "Droz, I'm Cylus. Pleasure to meet you." he says politely. As he looks the man over, he notices him toying with the assault rifle. "What do you have going on there?" he asks
-
Droz turned around, suprised at the sudden hello. He extended his hand, shaking Cylus' "Oh this ol' thing?" His voice had a British accent to it, and he almost seemed happy to talk about the rifle "Tried mixing some tech, between Alliance and Militia."
-
Cylus inspects the gun in Droz's hands "Interesting. How's it working out so far?" he asks curiously
-
"Not as good as I had hoped it would be, to be quite honest with you." Droz looked down, somewhat sadly
-
"What were you trying to fuse? I'm also one to tinker with my weapons, so maybe I could help. Although I'm not exactly all caught up with the tech you guys have here..."
-
"An Alliance M-8 Avenger assault rifle and a Militia R-201 Assault rifle."
-
"Oh... Well again, I'm not exactly caught up. Still new around here, especially when it comes to the Alliance..." Cylus says a bit awkwardly
-
"Yeah, it's fine. Once we get the outpost matter settled you'll be able to explore around the area. Ask around."
