Good day. This is Miles Edgeworth.

I cannot accommodate you at the moment, but please leave a message and I will respond as soon as possible.

Maybe. [Korra quirks a brow at him.]

The way they're acting right now, it's going to be hard to convince people to fight for them, though.

[Especially when the "enemy" they're fighting isn't the Flamines, as CERES has been telling everyone.]

[prosecutory]

People will, at the very least, fight for their lives. If the colony is sufficiently threatened, they may choose to fight, just not for CERES.

[Edgeworth sounds like he's quite certain of this - because he was in the same position some time ago, learning to fight initially just to keep him safe, and only later on choosing to fight for a bigger cause.]

[braavado]

[She sighs heavily.]

I guess you have a point. If they're trying to send us out to fight some battle when we're not being threatened, though, it's not gonna happen.

[prosecutory]

Unless they reward us, somehow.

...Returning home would be quite the reward for most people.

[He writes something down in a blank page of his organizer, as if filing away that theory.]

[braavado]

[Damnit, Edgeworth, stop being so logical about this.]

Great. [Korra sighs.] So they tell everyone who is willing to fight, that their homes are actually safe and will be their reward? I wouldn't put it past them.

[prosecutory]

Neither would I. [He stops writing with his pen and proceeds to gesture with it.] But again, this is all conjecture.

Is there anything else you'd like to know? I don't have all the answers, but I will do my best to answer if I can.

[braavado]

[She shakes her head.]

I think that's it. [Pushing aside her glumness for a moment, Korra manages to muster a smile for him.]

Thanks. If I think of anything else, I'll give you another call or something. Maybe we can talk a little more if we learn something new.

[prosecutory]

You're welcome...Korra, correct? I'm glad to have been of assistance.
