Negotiations are complete
Relic's latest message made up Avatar's mind. He keyed his communicator. "Resolutes, this is Avatar. He's either supremely confident that we can't destroy the bowl, or willing to accept its loss as the resolution to his ploy. We don't know if that thing gives him the power to rule the world, or if destroying it removes the only real threat to his power. Either way, I don't want him dictating our actions. He's not going into the tomb, and we can't do any good just sitting here until he leaves. We can't give him what he wants, 'cause that means that anytime he wants us to do his bidding, all he has to do is grab a few hostages somewhere. He knows who we are and where we are, so there's no point to waiting for him to make a mistake. I say we go get our plane and fly this bowl back to where ever we want to go. And if he gets in the way of that, that's his tough luck.
Anyone opposed?"
