"It happened before the Jaunt which you Travelers refuse to speak of," they answer. "Moebius. I know not how many of your time units it was. You need speak to Death or the Antisticide Hermit to learn that."
They think about her second question for a long, long time before answering. "Is there a specific Arcanum's activities about which you ask, or is this a more general inquiry into our... moods?"
"Would they be willing to speak to one who's not theirs?" It would at least be more efficient than passing the question to one of their people and making them do it - especially since Yukino does not, as far as she know, know anyone who's one of theirs yet.
She's started to think the second question isn't even going to get answered before Judgement speaks again. "I was wondering what you did in response to Hierophant's death. How you dealt with the aftermath. Your moods... I'm not going to pretend to know how you all think, but I can't imagine the general mood being very good." She pauses for a moment, considering. "Were you and Hierophant close?"
"Hierophant and I were close in that we shared a philosophical outlook, but he was closer to those who share parts of his idiom - Emperor, Strength, and so on." They ponder a moment more, then add, "I must continue Synodiporia regardless of the many we have lost. But Hierophant's loss was... preventable, needless. Through the selfishness of the Antisticides we had lost another. And that is why I intend to punish them for their misdeeds."

And she should probably concentrate on asking questions that might actually get answers. "When did it happen? And what did the rest of you do after?"
