*The small village of Limmous, a rather quiet place as the people have continued to thrive here. Always in a state of light and dark, dusk and dawn. It lived in a paradox of its own, much like the maker of the failed paradise before it.* *And it was here that the people who had fought a war all its own managed to return, landing in the small village on a knee. And yet he was confused at the various sensations that just took place. For starters he could tell right now that he could still go back to the Castle Network. And yet looking at it... it was cut off and for all intents and purposes shut down. And yet another entity entered just then as well, as if they were counting on them separating the beasts like that. And the strength that it held... had they really managed to turn things into a draw? Or had they simply managed to obtain a different kind of defeat with their course of action? He gritted his teeth, forcing himself to stand as he assessed his overall condition from the battle and what all they learned, as well as the new questions they obtained because of this as well. He would dwell on it in another fashion this time, going over the conclusions that they each likely reached after this upset.*
"If nothing else, I doubt the NIA's roots are this deep. Someone else is making a play in this political upheavel. And they're more prepared than we could have ever expected them to be. But they aren't unstoppable just yet. Rosso has weaknesses behind all that strength. What did you manage to learn, Resonance?"

The destroyer, who had just appeared moments before Genesis, is already in the underhang of a nearby store, watching the situation carefully. The area was too exposed for his liking.
Resonance, meanwhile, stands in the open for once. He's obviously fatigued from this entire situation, and cursing whatever program is slowing healing at this point. He takes a moment to re-gather himself before pulling out the data packet that he'd managed to grab.
Resonance: No complete picture, but I did manage to find some pieces of the puzzle. First there's- Stop
The destroyer now steps up, revealing himself to be far worse for the ware. His armor is singed and cracked, even melted in some places. His cannons are severely damaged, and to make matters worse, the light reveals that his hands are badly burned from his final use of Gehanna. Resonance looks at the Navi wide-eyed for a moment, then looks swiftly to Genesis with a doubtful look, and then back to the destroyer once again.
?: Before anything, check yourselves for any tracers or wires. We can't discuss anything until we know that we're clean
The destroyer had done this first thing, and he knew himself to be clean. Literal years of living his life in a clandestine fashion had left this Navi with some degree of outright paranoia. In this case, however, the dire nature of the situation made it seem like less paranoia and more good sense.
Resonance, remembering that he had just been in a room full of scientists, immediately nods his head and begins scanning himself for any type of tracker or implant that could have been on his person, as well as scanning the data that he'd just gathered.

*He knew that he had been under fire literally, but he was in worse shape than he thought. They would have to slow down their activity for a time until he could at least start to get in better shape. Fighting while crippled wasn't going to get them very far given what happened from their fighting at their peak.*
"Someone's properly paranoid."
*But he was also thankful for the paranoia that one of them had. It was something they were going to need and was something he should really have grown accustomed to by now. So he did the same, though he knew of one amnomality for a while now, but knew what the source of that one was. For the sake of this moment however, he'd go out of his way to shut that down for a bit, a few of the cords reaching through his arms and settling there as he got to work at shutting him out for a while. That left whatever else might possibly be on them.*

Scanning the information and searching themselves showed that there were tracers or wires to it. Though Resonance would notice that it looked like there was supposed to be a wiretap of some kind, it got destroyed when he left the area. Which would be a bit of a strange time for it to do so. Why would it be destroyed as he was leaving the area when it was designed to make sure it could listen in on him?

Resonance gains a look of shock as he discovers the wire in his system. After a bit of work, he disassembles the piece and destroys it with a focused sonic-burst just to take the extra bit of caution. He then looks up to Genesis, somewhat wide-eyed.
Resonance: ...nothing ever touched me, Genesis. How could they have gotten me tapped?
So things truly are as bad as the nameless Navi had feared. To say that this was bad was an under-statement. They needed someplace secure, someplace that no one would know of. And, much to his annoyance, he had just the place.
?: We're not safe here. But I do have someplace that we will be for the time being.
The destroyer's charred hands reach out and form two bits of data, revealing obvious pain in the nameless Navi as he does. He then hands one to Genesis, and the other to Resonance.
Do not share this with anyone.
The destroyer then disappears in a rush of white light, obviously on his way somewhere that he would trust.
Genesis and Resonance receive:
@www Ruins

*He believed that Resonance wouldn't get touched in his mission. If there was anything that he was good at, it was avoiding hits while he was ahead. But it looked like whoever this was had been a step ahead of even him. Honestly speaking, he was at least a little impressed by this point. No one had ever gotten ahead of them by such a wide margin in such a short amount of time... or ever, actually. Even when their enemies did they at least KNEW their enemies. In this case, they pretty much only knew the one had friends. He took the data and then stored it safely, going into his left arm specifically. And then he vanished in a black light, following after him. And he would always make certain not to share it with anyone, though some lines were being drawn a bit that had come to mind ever since the first clash these two had with one another.*
