[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

The brilliant historian's faith in him actually gets a small but notable smile from Ven, feeling slightly better about this whole situation now that he knows for certain they are of the same mind about it. 

"Thank you, Nate. This.....discovery is not a wholesome one at all, as I too dread to ponder what Almanac and their ilk was doing with Nuclear power - or how in Kyurem's frozen domain they got their hands on it in the first place. That is a question I want answers to, among many, many others. Hopefully our investigation and reclaimation of these Reshirim forsaken labs will yield such Truth, or lead us in the right direction."

Nathan's comments on Shiva and the murky legal waters she was now treading into wipes away the orange haired scientist, his lips pressed thin as his mind quickly came up with several outcomes and consequences for her if nothing was done to help her, none of them good.

".....I can later get into contact with her (Dagny) without alerting the military or problematically implicating you or anyone else in....this. I brought Haziel (His Natu capable of Super Teleporation) along with me and have covertly let him familiarize himself with the island, so if I can get somewhere outside that's not under close observation I can him Teleport me to her and sort out this whole dubious affair before it can possibly blow up on Shiva. Knowing her, she'll be able to pull some strings and get us - or at least you and the rest of the group - authorization to own and use Nuclear Pokemon in some capacity quickly enough that neither the League or its military forces will have the chance to grind gears with my dearest. Worse case scenario if she can't or won't and I can have Haziel smuggle it (Nucleon) off the island and into one of my safehouses, and convert the place into a private sanctuary and containment zone for Shiva to covertly visit and play with it. In any case I can have this all this handled in little time, with no one but us none the wiser for it. That is, if you'll allow me?"

Ventus has little illusions that he's not going to get away with anything that Nathan disapproves of (or not easily, as past history can attest too), given the immense power they can wield over him in both the literal and figurative sense, and so come the question. It was also the polite and sensible thing to do, as this whole situation and the many ways available to access it involves them too, and they may have an idea or two to offer on his own suggested course of action.

"I'm all for handling this discreetly until it's been sorted out, but I can't imagine the military wouldn't take notice of one of their visitors...disappearing, to be frank.  The only government approved way on and off this island is via their boats, after all.  Might be better to just call Dagny from here before we make any attempts to leave, if you ask me.  And the less we have to keep secret from the League, for any length of time, the better.  I'm sure the military will be more than happy to let us contact Dagny, probably while they keep a careful eye on Nucleon and Shiva to make sure they don't go anywhere.  The soldiers have their orders, but they can always be issued different ones without complaint so long as we go through the proper channels in the right order."
