"I'm glad that you are optimistic," Rui replied to her. "I understand you have great hopes for the future of human civilization. I also understand you disapprove of our violent tendencies. However…"

"We are a Martial civilization, do not forget that. We are not dark elves, we are human beings. That means that we will never be like you, no matter what.

"Of course." The Matriarch took a metaphorical step back. "We do not intend to impose our ways. We simply hope to share with you what you are able and willing to take, and likewise, we too hope to learn about your ways when it comes to the exotic matter that has whipped the entirety of the true world into a frenzy. We hope to cultivate a genuine friendship with human civilization."
