He says "This is a school not a military base. It is not meant to hold off an attack on its own against an entire city state.
But, perhaps if such an attack were to occur, it wouldn't matter if the school stood or fell. This place is a testament to a dream of not having the next war. What is the point of such a dream if war is upon us, and I think with some many children from so many cultures any such attack would come from a nation willing and now able for that war.
I wouldn't be worried about a few bandits if that's your concern. Most cultures came with the idea they might just have to defend their tower."
He pauses a bit more. "I was going to say that one of the children we're meant to protect is you. But those in the link think you'd take that as an insult. What I mean is not to forget that you are also a student, when you were given other responsibilities they were meant to compliment not crush your learning here.
There is another pause as the Michael holds still. The next person to do something is one of the three celestial's on the flying platform. She goes over to the pilot? captain? And whispers in his ear.
The middle ages tech mage smiles broadly as says "Heh! I wouldn't worry about that. Just some of the professors having a spot of fun in the training arenas. Ahhh! I'll confess to being a wee bit jealous! But only a bit with my Airborn Support Platform here! My ASP! He holds out his hand and makes a snakelike gesture and hisses, still smiling."
The Michael, almost impercievably and out of the side of their mouth says "That last bit doesn't..." he pauses "It's so slo..." He pauses again.
Eventually he just sighs and says "We should be going."
