Hearing the approaching foot steps, Vizelle continues to get fucked by her new subordinates. "Aaahn, more, harder, please." She begged like a broken whore as she feels another orgasm was fast approaching.
Smiling, the captain says that he'd be more than happy to have her as his passenger and guest of honour again. On her way to the palace, Yannika bumps onto a nun wearing the sigil of the Jade Rose. The woman apologises and runs off, but Yannika notices that a small data slate has been pressed into her hand. Checking it, she sees that it contains a warning from Elena Feit of the Order of the Jade Rose, Yannika's fellow council member. Apparently the confessor tried to have Elena killed on a mission, like she did Yannika. Heading to the palace, Carius sees Yannika in a private lounge room, and the mother sees elements of her son's personality, various holovids, books and comics, as well as serious tomes about statecraft and war. Carius appears a moment later, hair ruffled boyishly, and in a casual, colorful tunic that clings to his leanly muscular frame. "Ah, Sister Wulfkin." He gives her his trademark bright smile. "I hear you had success on your mission? Actually, from what I heard, you were quite heroic." He gives her an admiring look.
"Mmmh. You've brought more cocks." Vizelle moaned in a sultry tone, trying to seduce the newly brought guards.
Yannika gave the Emperor a curtsy and bowed her head. "Thank you Your Highness; it's a great honor to hear you say so." She returned to her full height and stood with her hands clasped in front of her and her upper arms pressed her breasts together and out. As such they appeared bigger and more prominent than their already impressive size. "I'm pleased to report that the heresy on Lave V is now over, and it's people look forward to a bright future of prosperity and peace. As it turns out most of the charges laid against the worlds officials are true. I've brought the planetary governor, Lord Perrygood, back to the capital to face trial and answer for the blatant corruption that was allowed to take place on the world. An archbishop and a cardinal will also have to face punishment, but I intend to discuss that matter with the church directly so the crown needn't be concerned with that. Should you like I would be happy to keep you informed of that matter." She couldn't keep her eyes off him, nor a proud smile from her lips. He was handsome, thoughtful, and interested in his role. A great sadness swelled in her heart, as it always did, when she thought about how much time she'd missed with him; but here, now, that didn't seem to matter so much.
Spoiler: Seduction Roll D100: 46 (Fail) All of the bodyguards look as though they'd be happy to spend some time with Vizelle, but not to the point where she could manupulate them. Xi Fei rolls her eyes. "Get her out of here. See if one of Markus' brothels wants her." She sighs. "What a waste."
Spoiler: Seduction Roll D100: 77+15 (Seduction Skill)=92 (Crit) Carius can't keep his eyes off of her, or her breasts, though he clearly tries, worried about making her feel uncomfortable. "Err, that's good to hear. I"ll make sure the governor is punished. I'd like to hear reports about what happens to the clergymen. Of course, I trust you to resolve the issue, I just want to be kept appraised." He smiles to show he's not asking out of distrust.
Vizelle licks her lips, deciding to go ahead and try to turn all the guards into her underlings. She instructs the ones already under her to play along for now.
"Of course Your Majesty." Yannika said with another curtsy, letting his eyes linger on her breasts for longer. When she stood back up she took a couple of tentative steps towards him and stood closer than would be respectable had they not been alone. "May I say Your Highness, I was intending to stay in the capital for a while. I've been hoping, for some time now, to spend time with you, get to know you, so that I may better serve you." as an afterthought she added "and the empire."
Spoiler: Telepathy Roll D100: 55+15 (Order of Sorcerers)=70 (Pass) Using her powers, she manages to get a hold on the bodyguards, as they unshackle her from the ceiling.
"I-um...That would be nice." He nods, blushing, still trying and failing to stop ogling. "I mean, we should have a good working relationship, if we're to be working together so closely. I mean, working on the Empire..."
She found it adorable how flummoxed he was, but she was also determined to change that about him with her. She stepped closer again, very close. Her hand came up and gently grazed across his chest, and her voice dropped an octave and dripped with intimacy. "Thank you Your Majesty. In truth I have desired nothing more than a close relationship with you since the first day we met." That much was true, although the first day they met was far longer ago than he realized. And the relationship she desired now was most certainly not the one she desired then. Her eyes turned up to meet his and they were filled with affection. "If it isn't too forward of me, I should like to learn everything about you, my Emperor, your likes, your hobbies, your interests. I do wish to share them with you. I wish to share everything with you. Will you call upon me in the coming days?" She bit her bottom lip at the last, and her expression changed to one of pleading hopefulness.
Spoiler: Persuasion Roll D100: 81+15 (Seduced)=96 (Crit) Carius looks in her eyes, before nodding. "It is very forward, but honestly, something about you makes me feel...comfortable. Well, maybe a little embarrassed, too." His eyes dip down to her cleavage, before returning to meet her gaze, and he gives her a short smirk. "Sorry about that, by the way." He chuckles and presses a few buttons on a nearby console. "I'd like that very much. I've just given you access to the royal suites. You'll still have to be scanned for weapons, but you're free to come to see me any time you wish."
She quickly is led through the palace to meet the emperor in a private lounge, seeing Yannika of the Sacred Hearth holding a hand on his chest. Yannika, she remembers, is the other person Carius' confessor targeted for assassination. @Omega98 Yannika notices her fellow councilor enter the room.
"Aaahn." Vizelle collapses onto the ground as they unshackle her, "Mmh. Are you sure you don't want to test me out, Mistress?" She whispered to Xi Fei, adding psionics into her voice.
Her hand pressed lightly against the side of his face and her thumb stroked his cheek. "It fills my heart with joy to hear you say you feel comfortable with me. And you don't have to apologize to me about anything ever My Emperor. By the will of the gods I am yours, all my life. From now until the day I return to them. Use me in any way you desire My Emperor. Such is my purpose. I belong to you." It was at that moment the doors to the room open and Yannika silently cursed whomever it was that disturbed them.
Spoiler: Telepathy Roll D100: 44+15 (Order of Sorcerers)=59 Spoiler: Xi Fei's Willpower Saving Roll D100: 66 (Pass) Unfortunately, Xi Fei seems to have some sort of psionic blocker, or perhaps she has psionic powers herself. Vizelle is unable to break through her defences. "Actually, now that you mention it..." She snaps her fingers. "Get her cleaned up, and bring her to my chambers."
@Omega98 Elena nodded to the priestess. "Priestess Yannika. I hope you are in good health." She paused. "Have you received one of my messengers?" She asked curiously. She did send a couple of messengers to all intended targets with warnings... but she did not know how that went...
@majus Yannika did her best to stifle her frustration at the intrusion. "Mother Elena! Indeed, I received it just moments ago as I returned to the capital. I must say during my assignment I encountered an individual with a similar claim. However, he proved to be an unreliable source and I could not verify it. I was hoping to investigate the matter and find truth in it before I made an accusation. But if you received the same information from a credible source there is most likely something to it. I thank you for the information, it was most gracious of you to send it to me. In fact I regret not doing the same, yet I feel that in my time away from the palace I have not had a chance to."
The emperor pulls away from the close proximity he had with Yannika to look between the two women. "Sorry, investigate? Accusation? Is something going on?"
