Okay. I'm calling out on metagaming. I'm still convinced that it's metagaming. She assumed that the SF's reason is that they knew too much. Well, she threatens them not to say that, at least. That's metagaming. How the hell would she know that? Okay, corrupt organizations hide things. Yes, but knowing too much? If they're that corrupt, wouldn't the kids be dead, rather than be taken away? Sure, to hide the evidence, but the conventional Aralangs would truthfully tell them what happens. If the ASF were that cruel, the conventional Aralangs WOULD rise against them, causing an Aralang Civil War. Yes, there was a witness: an Aralang scientist. Aralang linking would hold the evidence, which would spread across the ENTIRE planet. The ASF wouldn't be able to do anything about it.
If the ASF were to just take the children and run off with them, the Aralangs themselves would demand an explanation, and the doctor that was speaking to Celestie would tell her what's going on. There would possibly be even an Aralang Civil War.
What, Celestie wouldn't know what the conventional Aralangs would do? I'm pretty sure she would know what they would do, as they've known them for a little over ten years. That's enough time for the Relorians to understand the Aralangs, even to the point that they don't seem to realize that there's a difference between the ASF and the conventional Aralangs. They seem to think that they're all the same.
Corrupt organization holding secrets? Everyone holds secrets, corrupt or otherwise. She wouldn't know that they're so secretive. The only thing I see from her is that they are very aggressive, and they don't really care much about anything.
The 'reasons' you gave me were more like excuses than actual reasons to me.
No, I'm not doing this because I'm going to be defeated or anything like that. It's just that Celestie, ironically, seems to know too much IC.
This may seem like it's a big deal over nothing, but it's not, because things like this slowly creep up at you and you won't realize it until it's too late. I don't want the same mistakes and errors getting repeated again and again. I'm being proactive.
