Nayru nodded in agreement. Always she had thought that, it was the members who made any group what it was. The leaders meant nothing if they had no one to lead, and a truly great leader lived for their members. They would die for their members. Nayru gave herself whole heartedly to the Ichikans, and it was as natural to devote herself to them as it had been to devote herself to the Dahlians. Nayru was glad that so many of the members seemed as willing to give themselves over to Ichika as she was herself. This made her proud to be at the head of the pack, guiding the group skilled individuals that together made up Ichika no Ho-en.
"Yes it is the members." Jaden continued with his train of thought, and again she felt what he said was very true. Working together and communicating were the foundation for greatness. That there still seemed a chasm between the Valley members and the Dahlians troubled her. No one was out right hostile, or even unfriendly, but some seemed hesitant to work with or befriend the others. They all now had a common goal, goals even. To live and let live. To learn and better themselves. To help good ultimately prevail over evil. To simply exist and be happy as best as they could. None of their goals were too far out of reach, but they could certainly be attained quicker if they worked with one another.
"Well then, you have your answer, don't you?" It all seemed very simple then, Nayru realized. And it was something that she too had to keep in mind and execute in the future. "To better serve Ichika we must promote brotherhood among our members." Nayru smiled at the warrior across from her, as if he had already agreed to the idea. "What will you do to bring together the Ichikans, Jaden?" What indeed?
