"You have an AI named Ronald?" Galadriel asked, an eyebrow raised. "That is... an odd name." She noted.

"Odd indeed. But considering it's the Forerunners we're talking about, you probably shouldn't be surprised." Skye said, walking up behind the two.

"Roland, not Ronald. And, that's the name translated to English. Or would you prefer me to say Yakon-Antrovolius-Hasterloir-Magmininius?" Chuckled the Didact. He picked up a piece of equipment. "Hmm... a toy." He aimed it and it sent out a small laser that partially melted a stack of blank papers. "Remember playing with these." He discarded it and moved on. "Ah! Now here's something we can use!" He exclaimed, pulling out two energy cores from behind a machine.

The ship Carloti had been following seemed to have landed. Not wanting to be seen she landed her self in a nearby tree keeping out of sight. She could just about see two figures had left the ship with a third comeing up just behind. Curiosity getting the better of her again she began to approach trying to get a better look while keeping to the shadows.

"Sir, we seem to have an intruder." Said Roland. "Do they have a giant mace?" Asked The Didact. "No."
"Or seems to be a threat at all?"
"No."
"Then let then approach." He said. Turning around to face the entrance. Despite what Roland said, he kept his Boltshot at the ready.

"Didact, we have company. She's hiding in a tree." Galadriel said, looking at Carloti. Skye stepped back, knowing she would be useless anyway. Galadriel thrust her arms out, as bindings fromed from her magic. They moved faster than sound. They wrapped themselves around Carloti.

"Not exactly subtle." Said the Didact, turning back around and examining some equipment. "Pulse lasers... Project Prometheus... Palace Group... Fire team Majestic..." He muttered to himself. Then he turned around again. "You have a name?" He asked the newcomer.

Surprised by the initial attack Carloti fell out the tree she had been hiding in. She managed to just land on her feet by manipulation the air around her. She glared at the strangers unable to move her arms. " well that's not a very nice way to greet someone is it. I don't think I'll give you my name until you apologies for making me fall out that tree." The wind stirred slightly in response to her anger.

He looked at Galadriel. "Can you believe her?" He turned back to the newcomer. "Excuse my lack of knowledge of Human traditions, but I don't think you're exactly in a position to make demands." Said the Didact, keeping a hand on his Boltshot. "So I'll ask you once again. Your name."

She would have folded her arms if she could in stead she opted to scowl and roll her eyes. " then allow me to show you. In human cultures we begin by introducing ourselfs first. Like so Hello my name is Carloti I'm a lone traveler. Now your turn"

The Didact helmet palmed. Then he put on a voice dripping with sarcasm. "Hi! I'm Ur-Didact, but you can call me Didact. I'm a Forerunner, which for the record are a more or less completely superior race to humans, from across the universe!" He turned back around and started consulting his holo-pad.

Carloti smiled sweetly and replyed with equel sarcasm "pleasure to meet you Didact the forerunner." Turning as best she could to the other two present " so how about you two? And could which ever of you has this binding thing on me get rid of it i like being able to do more then twitch."

"Perhaps I will." Galadriel said, her voice faintly dripping with sarcasm.
"Wow, you must be really pissed to resolve to sarcasm." Skye jabbed.
'Yes, I am quite tired, and angry and impatient after today. So I think I will be making quite a few rash decisions, Skye.' Galadriel replied, her annoyance back to controllable levels.
'Sure. So long as none of them end up with me turning into a pulp.'

The Didact started flicking through a paperback copy if 'Of Mice and Men'. "You know, I have always admired humans for their literature." He stored the book in his bag for later reading. "So, I suppose you want names?" He asked Carloti. "You have mine, but it's not up to me if the other three choose to reveal their identities."

'And just how am I supposed to... Oh, never mind.' Galadriel was about to say, but thought better of it. She turned back to Carloti. Not that she had looked away. She bent her powers on the Mutant, searching her memories.

'Aren't those privete?'
'Maybe if she had not sneaked up on me.'
'... Alright then.'


"My name is Galadriel, Lady of the Golden Woods, Lady of Light, Lady of Lorien and a dozen other titles besides." Galadriel stated. "And as for your bindings, I will not remove them until I am confident you can be trusted."

"Well then..." Said The Didact, taking the book back out, sitting down and putting his legs on a desk, "it seems like we'll be here for quite a while." He started reading.

"Yes, yes we will." Galadriel simply said. "And now, if you will excuse me Didact, I have to and check on Skye's wings. Before they start to have a deformity."
"And how is that supposed to make me feel better about his whole mess?" Skye asked. Galadriel didn't answer. Skye followed Galadriel back into the ship.

"Okay. I guess I'll just stay here." The Didact called after them. "You never oughta drink water when it ain't running, Lennie," he said hopelessly. The Didact read. "You'd drink out of a gutter if you was thirsty." The Didact smiled. He finished the rest of the first chapter and stored away the book. He twiddled his thumbs. He wasn't a particularly patient individual. He got up and started pacing around. "Roland, launch a game of chess. Me against you." The Didact said. Soon, they we're say at a desk, a holographic figure of a Forerunner in similar armor consulting over a holographic chessboard. Despite being blunt, AIs were very intelligent and the game promised to be fun.

Galadriel returned, albeit without Skye. She glanced for a few seconds at Didact and his game of chess. She glanced at the Mutant called Carloti. She flicked her hand, and the bindings were gone. She walked back towards Didact, as she watched the game progress. She knew what chess was. She just never bothered to play the game.

"Check." Cried the AI. The Didact observed the scene. He eliminated the attacker with a Bishop. "Checkmate." Smiled the Didact. He pushed his chair back and noticed Galadriel standing there. "How's Skye?" he asked. The AI and the chess game disappeared.

Glad to finally be free again. Carloti shock herself off before turning to say. " well thats my people quota filled for a while so I'll just be heading on my way. I'll leave you to your funny ships and long names" she turned and headed towards the end of the clearing muttering to herself about manners. Her stomach gave a huge grumble " urg I forgot about finding food" she stoped and glsnced back at the strangers looking thoughtful. I wonder if they have any food i could trade for she thought to herself.
