Iris's words made a lot of sense. A lot of Semblances that Azulius had seen had an inverse relationship between power and general usefulness. The crazy awesome powers were situational as could be, while the multi-tool Semblances were never as flashy.

"Makes sense to me.  It's like my uncle Trigo said to me when I was a kid, first getting into fighting:  "Make sure you're playing your game during a fight, and not the other person's, because he's probably better at it than you." Course, Trigo's a strange man at the best of times, so his advice usually needs a few grains of salt." Thinking of something, Azulius changed topics.

"But speaking of games, we probably should nail down some more things before we go steal stuff," he started, pulling out his scroll and finding some pictures. "Now, I did some checking around earlier, and it turns out that unlike most older banks, the First of Vale has the vault more or less in the middle of the structure, with a maintenance tunnel or two running underneath.  Now the vault is still a foot thick of Dust-reinforced steel on the bottom, but that can't be too hard for Cipher, especially if my back up plan works as intended.  Also making life easier is the rumor I heard about their Cloudburst system in the vault and surrounding hallways.  It's basically a smoke machine on steroids.  If you can't see your hand in front of your face, you can't rob a bank.  But since we're not robbing the bank, I think I can make it work for us instead."
