Many people. Earth was supposed to be an unimportant backwater. Yet with Fukushu setting his sights on it and gathering a miniature army to raze the entire planet, Marrow had to wonder when that changed. Maybe if the Heran had simply picked a different world to flex his murder muscles on, he wouldn't have been humiliated by Derry. At least she'd still have the better parts of Konats to retreat to IF Earth happened to fall. Marrow still wasn't sure if she was ready to commit to an invasion force that planned to burn it all down. If they failed, Derry would likely execute her as a traitor.
"It was a last-minute arrangement," She explained calmly. "I think he planned on attacking solo, but... he has something I want. It's already been established that I won't die for his cause, so if the opposition is too fierce, I'm out." Not that they were likely to run into anything stiff. Konats wasn't a trendy place for supposedly peaceful Aliens turned martial artist world defenders. Eris hadn't caught wind of any particularly strong natives either - aside from Crotona, who supposedly stopped a minor incursion against Lux earlier in the year. Maybe they'd meet on the battlefield. "For now I don't see any reason to decline your offer, but I need to finish my chores before committing to something like you plan."
She'd listen to whatever Fukushu had to say before turning for the door, satisfied with ending the meeting.
Having listening to everything Marrow had to said, Fukushu was happy to end things here. He knew that an ally of Derry wouldn't be easy to sway, and truthfully he didn't like he needed her on his said as much as he needed her not on Derry's. As long as he could plant that seed in her mind then overtime he could pull her over; he felt as though he had successfully done that, and if she really was helping Kamae with... whatever it was he had planned then she was certainly not one of the good guys.
"I understand. I wish you and Kamae success in your task, though I hope you have it sorted out before I return to Konats. I would hate to get caught up in whatever it is Kamae has planned. I'd probably be there alongside Kamae, however like you I have my own chores to take care of." If only Kamae had given him more time... oh well; the Demon would have to fend for himself.
He waited for Marrow to leave before collecting his things and returning to his ship. The hour of war was fast approaching, and he was needed back on Plant.
