"Their current designations are Death, the Moon, the Emperor, the Empress, and the High Priestess," Astræa explains. "If I had not interfered, Lune's chosen might have inadvertently caused another incursus like that which my Many-Named Sister finally closed. His act was the more dangerous, for all that it was more innocent. If Mortimer's chosen had been given time to finish subverting the Automat-- I do not know. I believe that the amount of Fortuna's randomness which she had imbued the mechanism with was too strong for a mortal's Convert, but in truth, I cannot be sure. And I do not know what he planned to instruct the Automat to do, only that his intentions were malicious."
That's... really concerning, honestly, that Travelers are breaking into and messily attempting to gain information from the deceased Arcana's rooms. Mostly the messily part is what's getting to him - because, well. Ninja.
Yakumo would love to get more information on this from her (particularly regarding the grave-shrine-rooms), but he has to shake his head (he really can't believe they were overconfident enough to get caught) in condemnation of their actions and move the conversation along. He did come here for a reason, and he can't keep Justice away from............. whatever she does, for very long.
"I'm sure it will come out in time." Travelers are bad at keeping information to themselves, he's learned. And it actually leads him to a question he's been needing to ask since he first heard the Network buzzing to life in his mind. "--When it does, will you learn of it at the same time as us?"
"Perhaps," she says. "I think it might be likely if they speak of myself upon what you Travelers are determined to call the Network. Talking of myself over your Network would likely grab my attention."
That's pretty much what he expected. Privacy in this place is going to be impossible to find, and teaching others codes is also too likely to be seen...
Well. Anyway. Yakumo gives a slight nod in response, and now that the pleasantries are over he can move right to the point.
"There's actually something in particular I came here to ask. Have you made any progress in finding allies?"
"Mm," she says. "Perhaps. Cairbre and I were working together to preserve Fortuna's wishes at our last joint meeting. That could deepen to further alliance in time."
