Tikal. I passed through Coba on the way. I need to head back there as well, their walls have almost no reinforcement. It would be much easier to get around if there were pack animals for sale.
[Flynn specifically, because Yuri knows Flynn's effect on people.]
Their leader threw them to the wolves for some stupid relic, and those stories they feed us about the incense? Whatever you've heard, the reality is worse.
[Which is something Yuri actually admires, but is he going to admit that? Nope.]
Sorry to burst your bubble, but I haven't heard anything about any punishment. They're like the guilds with no Union to oversee them, as far as I can tell.
I'm going to speak with Jaguar. I know what you want the next move to be, but I need to try speaking to them first. He's the one in charge of our "guild," after all.
[Part of him wants that to be true, for Flynn's sake if nothing else. Yes, he'll be willing to step in if he has to, but the truth is—what he suspects Flynn doesn't get—is that he doesn't want to be necessary. He wants Flynn's version of the world to be reality. The tone of his voice reveals just how likely he thinks that is, though.]
Sure would be nice if they let us in on what they hell they were thinking.

Flynn? What the hell are you doing here?

[Yuri was hoping that, even if he was trapped here, at least Flynn could take care of it. Now that's shot.]
She must still be stuck at home with Alexei.

Where are you now? I'm about to be in Kiichpan.

How long have you been here again?
[You know what?]
Nevermind. I'm in Tikal. I'll head back and meet you. Someone needs to keep an eye on those coterie idiots, anyway.

[It's been a busy few days. He pretty much started his traveling the moment he arrived, which means he didn't get a journal until recently.]
You were just there? In Kiichpan? How bad was it? I've heard the reports, but...
no subject
Bad. Half the city was burned to the ground.
no subject
…I see. All the more reason for me to be there.

[It feels almost ridiculous to ask.]
Is there no law here? No punishment for whoever did this?
[Because of course that's where his mind is at right now.]
no subject
[Look at this. A familiar discussion.]

[Probably for the best Yuri can't see him- he looks like all the wind's been taken out of his sails.]
Guilds with no Union, and leaders with no written law to hold them accountable against. That's what you're saying the situation is?

[Get off his back!!!]
This isn't Terca Lumereis. I'm not doing anything until we understand what's happening.
[Killing Viper could be way more trouble than its worth at this point. Who knows.]
no subject
Good. I... want this to be just a simple misunderstanding. Maybe there is a plan we don't know of. Maybe there's a punishment in place.
[Maybe he's just trying to blind himself again, as he does.]
