Nathan's heart drops when he sees the destruction Deoxys wrought on Trillium in such a short time. The roofing peeled back...it's almost like Deoxys was looking for something in those houses...
...which only serves to further support Nathan's bad feeling about Deoxys's bargain...
...and even the highest ranking members of the League themselves are fighting Deoxys now...and struggling to just survive against its onslaught...
...they need to act.
And they need to act now.
-------------------------------------------------------
Nathan steadily tightens his grip on the hilt of the Sword as Deoxys proposes its 'bargain'.
"...this is not a trade, Deoxys. A trade would suggest that both parties involved agreed to barter in the first place. What you've done is taken hostages and issued demands. You've destroyed countless people and pokemon's homes, and even their very lives, to conduct your experiments. Sure, your meddling has shaped much of what Creshire became to this day, but it's cost everyone who lives here so, so much. Friends, family, life, love, safety...you destroy just as much as you create from what I've seen. I would hardly call that benevolent, nor would I say that everything you left behind brought a positive change to the region."
Nathan's visibly tense as he holds himself back for now. He has exactly one question for the alien Legendary:
"...why? Why conduct your experiments here? Why destroy so many lives without apparently thinking about the immediate and long term consequences of such actions beyond those of your own goals? Why pursue your goals so single minded? Nobody on this planet understands anything about your actions, so can you really blame those who came before us for preparing for your inevitable return? If you're going to attempt to strike a deal that'll have far reaching consequences, you need to make those reasons known."
You could say that curiosity is getting the better of Nathan, but if he can get Deoxys talking...well, understanding is the first step of any negotiation.
Plus, this could easily stall for some time if it works, give people in the area time to flee what might soon become a battleground and time for backup to arrive if necessary.
