OOC: Various different ways, since the crew has no way of knowing how technologically advanced the colony is. So they're probably communicating with flags, lights, radio and smoke signals
OOC: Alrighty then
The surveillance station picks up the ship's radio signal while a few soldiers patrolling the shore notice the ship. The communications officer in the station opens a channel.
"Signal detected. Requesting identification."

The ship's Communications officer responds 'Greetings. We are a scout ship belonging to the Leraii Empire with no objectives but to meet other nations. We do not desire hostilities and come in peace. Could you identify yourself?'

Scout #1 starts telling the wisps what Scout #2 said to Darths empire, and Zyngard sends out a diplomat to talk to the yellow wisps that are hanging around the island
The remaining wisps begin to leave the throne room and head towards the main gates. Another one poofs along the way, making another noise.
The red and yellow wisps are being pushed back by the orange ones, and now the orange wisps own a large area of caves. The green ones in a cave begin to have plants growing on the rocks, and the purple ones occasionally seem to vanish.

The wisps that Scout #1 are talking to have absolutely no idea what the scout is saying, and continue to examine him before they slowly begin to move away.
The diplomat comes across even more wisps and every single rock around the cove is now glowing yellow. It's quite a sight if you see it at night.

Strange, pods start to form over the Tainted island, slowly raising the Taint levels of other islands depending on the wind, and creatures inside that area feel ill at random times, with random time limits on the sickness.
The drill pylon has dug a cylindrical pit with a radius of about 10 meters and a depth of about 50 meters- and continuing to get deeper- into the ground and the harvested samples are being studied by a group of scientists before being sent to storage. A local mineral processing plant is under construction nearby.

The scout also casts CL, before explaining his mission once more
The problem is, even though it looked like the wisps were having a conversation, none of them were actually speaking aloud to each other. The wisps do understand the scout, but he has no way of knowing.
There is no response from any of the wisps. But for a brief moment as the particles land on Trixie, she sees images of rain and bubbles as she feels a small trace of energy from it. The particles remain on her, as well as on the floor of the castle where each other wisp died.

Her horn glows a bit and she pushes the energy and particles back.
As the particles are moved off her she stops feeling the traces of energy, and the magic particles slowly fall to the floor with the other piles of wisp dust.

The scouting party heading south starts turning east, towards the islands the wisps are originating from.

The scouting party heading south starts turning east, towards the islands the wisps are originating from.
They see the west shore of Wisp Island, with blue grass and trees. As they get closer, small blue glowing rocks are seen.
The wisps continue to mine rocks, and at one point the yellow ones come across a different rock underground which is much harder. They carefully dig the area around it and begin hauling it up to the surface. The hard rock is carefully engraved in specific designs and surrounded by many of the other rocks. The hard rock begins to glow much brighter then the other ones, and a rumbling starts.

The vehicle stops on shore opposite the island's western shore, the captain looking over the island through a viewscope as he reports to the surveillance station.
"Unusual island detected. Flora present is tinted blue, with glowing blue rocks. Magic signatures detected. Sending coordinates."
Unable to cross the body of water with their current vehicle, the scouting team heads back northwest, following the shoreline.

The wisps look at Trixie for a moment, but turn away and keep searching for rocks. More of the wisps are now flickering.
The wisps eat the chocolate, and come back with more flowers. Some bring other random items like apples off a tree or someone's spade.

One of the kids points at a locked box on a cart with a piece of chocolate in his hand.
All of the wisps are now flickering, and some disappear in a puff of magic particles which float down like confetti, making an audible popping noise.
All the wisps move over to the cart, and bring the whole cart over to the kid.

Scout #1 starts telling the wisps what Scout #2 said to Darths empire, and Zyngard sends out a diplomat to talk to the yellow wisps that are hanging around the island
'No, nothing.'
The kids smile and give the wisps chocolate before trying to open the box
'Alright. The Leraii Empire will aid the Maletoth Empire with their exploration if they need our aid.'
The remaining wisps begin to leave the throne room and head towards the main gates. Another one poofs along the way, making another noise.

The wisps hang around for a bit longer, waiting for more sweets.

The wisps head out the main gate of the castle, with all but one poofing away.

Unfortunately, just as Trixie finishes her sentence, the wisp poofs into magic particles which fall all over her.
