"A shortened version, if you would" he added to his request to the girl. "We likely don't have time for the full tale."
He also thought: 'Perhaps the Nomads did select another group...'

On empty crossroads, seek the eclipse -- for when Sol and Lua align, the lost shall find their way home.“A primate,” Galen’s Phi-module helpfully informed him, “is a member of the biological order Primates (Latin: "prime, first rank”), the group that contains prosimians (including lemurs, lorises, galagos and tarsiers) and [[blue:simians (monkeys and apes).”]]
As for Jack, his Phi-module gave a negative beep—as did Spriggan’s a moment later. “Information on the allocation of military and civilian law enforcement assets are restricted to those with level-lambda clearance and higher. Please desist; further inquiries posed along this subject without demonstration of proper clearance will result in the bearer of this Phi-module being flagged as a potential subversive, and Valhalla Law Enforcement will respond accordingly.”

The Danse Macabre CodexGalen keyed for more info on those 'primates'.
On empty crossroads, seek the eclipse -- for when Sol and Lua align, the lost shall find their way home.Just for potential preparedness, Kimimaro keyed in "Projected Local Weather Patterns For Today And Next Six Days". It wouldn't be good if the Challengers tried to find this "Key" only to get tossed about by a storm during their search, after all.

Bendy Slendy in Upendi. Also, check out my fic“Lamba Level...okay now the Nomads are just screwing with us.” Subaru said, remembering the name of that one dickish Nomad. She had decided that mentioning the term Nomad was not grounds for concern, as it usually meant wanderer within the Earth Terms and normally did not apply to anything special.
She ignored the blabberings of the robot looking thing for a moment as she thought on their goal, this "key".
Then Subaru brought a screen up for her to use.
“Please define Lamba level security access and what falls under it please, to avoid further problems”

"What next?" Kimimaro snarked. "Digamma Security Corporation?"

On empty crossroads, seek the eclipse -- for when Sol and Lua align, the lost shall find their way home."I understand for the military. But it's not necessary for the police to have top secret information as you'd want to project your strength to show criminals that they're not having personnel problems. But nowadays where I'm from, the military and police would tell the public some of their stuff like the history and how they conduct their activities with mandated public days from the government where anyone can interact with military and police personnel in exhibits and such."

Kimimaro’s Phi-module flared to life a second later, displaying a number of charts and graphs depicting expected temperatures, water accumulation and wind-speed over the coming seven days. “Meteorological forecasts predict that the greater Valhalla area and the surrounding parts of Mjolnirdottir will experience clear skies with mixed cloudy periods and moments of light precipitation over the next six days; there is at most a 30% probability of rainfall over the coming Terran week. Winds not expected to exceed ten-to-twelve kilometres per hour at any point in this area of the specified time span.
At the same time, Subaru’s Phi-module chimed in with information of its own. “Level-Lambda clearance refers to individuals who met at least four of the following criteria:
are currently employed within a recognized, non-vigilante law enforcement division;
are currently employed within a unit of the Planetary Defense Force;
have been a citizen of [Thor] for at least three years, and lived on-planet for a minimum of five years prior to attaining citizenship;
are a member of one or more of the Terran Hegemony’s intelligence-gathering and/or internal-security bureaus/agencies;
are of the genus homo rather than the genera pan, gorilla or pongo, and of Terran genestock rather than xenomorphic genestock [that is, of a sapient species that originated on Earth/Terra/Sol Three rather than any other celestial body];
have spent a minimum of five years as a civil servant on [Thor];
have not been contaminated at any point with xenomatter, knowingly and willingly held or possessed xenotech, or knowingly and willingly displayed excessive sympathy towards aliens;
are of Planetary Administrator grade or higher;
are the highest-ranking official within a recognized legal/medicinal/cultural/scientific institution on [Thor] or any other world in Hegemony space [i.e., the academic dean of the Martian Technical and Medical Institute, or the curator of the Museum of Ancient Weapons on Earth], and have held this office for a minimum of two years;
bear a writ of authorisation from a recognized and endorsed law enforcement or military organization;
are the bearer of a Hegemonic Arbiter’s seal which has been encoded to your genetic signature;
or have experience with a certain matter.
Level-Lambda clearance is typically reserved for highly-placed government officials, top-tier civil servants and commissioned officers of the Earth-Mars Starfleet [EMSF] or Terran Hegemonic Armed Forces [THAF].”

The Danse Macabre CodexGalen tapped his PHI module absentmindedly; his eyes have gone blank, and those who were close to him could hear his rhythmic breathing; he was meditating.
On empty crossroads, seek the eclipse -- for when Sol and Lua align, the lost shall find their way home."Wonderful" Kimimaro deadpanned upon hearing Subaru's PHI. "These folks are racist and/or speciesist. I dislike them already." He'd had enough experience with intolerance during the (not government-sanctioned) Bloodline Purges in Kirigakure that followed the Third Great War (granted, he'd been a child, but no-one with bloodline abilities was spared from persecution at best and vigilante execution at worst).

Spriggan said after hearing Subaru's Phi-module.
"I don't live here and I'm not even with the security forces." He sighed. "It's like living in countries that requires you to do national service."
The TGS agent checked his Phi-Module to inquire on the local government.
"Let's check for a City Hall or something."

galen reached out with the Force to Rey.
On empty crossroads, seek the eclipse -- for when Sol and Lua align, the lost shall find their way home.

Rey nodded slightly, frowning, then sat back again, pinching the bridge of his nose and closing his eyes.
