Eanne nodded at Bec, before turning her attention to her guest. “Well, I guess we are done for today. I had a lot of fun, and I hope you did too, Sitra.” Eanne smiled warmly at her new friend. “I look forward to next time. Do you want me to give you an escort, or will you be fine on your own?”
"Fufu. Indeed. And now, she's agreed to be our special little pet." Vizelle hummed, letting Rikkert hear what she was about to say next. "That means, whenever she's wearing a collar. You may approach her for some fun." She cooed, "Ah, but I think there will be a few more wanting her for themsleves. So, if you want a more "intimate" encounter with her, you will have to produce wonderful results. Enough to impress me."
Elena stayed quiet for some time. "It's the duty of the ruler to address the worries of their subjects, yet it's also a duty of subjects to support their ruler." She started. "Your highness, the treason of the admiral, came from his worry for the good of the empire. He is loyal to it. Yet still, he did plan to commit treason. The object of his worry is a problem and needs to be addressed. Yet he also needs to be punished for his transgression." She paused. "Punish him for forfeiting the proper channels but keep him in your service... in Empire's service." Elena said, bowing slightly.
Vladimir's eyes were drawn to her breasts when she crossed her arms and he felt his cock harden as a result. Angry as it made him, he did his best to ignore his frustration. The Admiral was apologizing, and he didn't want to appear no better than Jeremiah as he did last time. So instead, he forced himself to meet her eyes and nodded in acceptance. "Apology accepted Admiral." he said and motioned for her to enter. He offered her the chair by the computer terminal and began to remove his armor. "You have courage admiral, and capability. That is more than I can say for most of your predecessors. Those who were courageous were fools and those who where capable were oftentimes cowards. None of your predecessors ever had the courage to come down here and confront me like you have. Know too that decision was wise on your part. I will not permit challenges to my authority in public, if you have an issue with me in the future, continue to bring it up privately. I will do the same." Vladimir paused before he stripped completely naked, but knew that embarrassment in front of a mortal was not becoming an Eternal Warrior. So he set aside whatever reservations he may have had and removed his undergarments. He then took the bladed gauntlet off the armor rack, grabbed a cloth, opened a container of polish, and sat on his bed. He dabbed the cloth with polish and then attended to the blade. "I... respect your command decisions, they are in keeping with my own, and perhaps that is why I find it agreeable to go into battle with you. But it would serve you well to remember that when I ask a question it is not, necessarily, an attack." His cock was still rock hard and jutted out from his crotch like a massive club as he turned his attention from the woman sitting down mere feet from him to his task. "Know that I am aware of your ability admiral, and it pleases me."
Alexandros chuckles. "So naive, so eager to please. Trust me, I'll put in good work to get her back for myself."
"I will be expecting that then." Vizelle nods, before looking at Halipha. "So, what about you? You've produced some lovely results. Who, or what would you like for your reward?" The sorceress hummed.
"There's a...service the admiral could provide for me." Emperor Carius nods. "A dangerous one, but if he survives, I would consider forgiving him." The emperor looks to Elena. "Thank you, sister. Your service recently has been invaluable."
Atrax's expression flashes in confusion when he removes his armour, alarm as he removed his clothes, and then back to confusion as he sits down naked. Her eyes roam his muscular form, widening as she sees the monster between his legs, but she shakes her head and retains her professionalism. "Ahem... Well, I'm glad we've sorted that out. A force where the space and ground commanders are at one another's throats is doomed to fail." She pulls her eyes away from his cock, to meet his. "If I have concerns in the future, I'll bring them to you privately, and you're welcome to do the same." Crisply, she salutes, before turning and walking out, the sway of her ass all to visible as she leaves.
Halipha chuckles. "All I want is to get stronger, mistress." She wipes sweat from her brow. "I don't have time to be playing around."
"Wonderful." Vizelle grins, "Then, I will allow you to do just that." She hummed, teaching Halipha the contents of the book they had, it was now up to the white-haired woman of she could master the spell that increased the effectiveness of her combat sorcery.
"Thank you, mistress." Halipha eagerly gets to work trying to master her new abilities, though only time will tell how well she's able to.
With seemingly not much else to do until the new immigrants arrive, Vizelle works on mastering the reflective type of barrier.
"I live to serve, your highness." Elena bowed. "We have captured both Admiral and Confesor - the latter, as per your orders, is facing her execution. One of the conspirators is still around. Be careful, your majesty." She then stepped back, allowing the admiral to receive his orders.
Spoiler: Psionic Roll 33+15 Sadly, no more progress is made, before the first scout ships, the first wave of a prospective colony, arroves in the planet's atmosphere.
"I will, sister." Carius smiles. "I'll try to find some reward for you, in the meantime." He has data sent to the admiral.
Once the first prospective colony arrives, Vizelle greets them, gently probing their minds for those who have ulterior motives for coming to the planet. She then lets Lieutenant Gaines handle the rest.
The scouting parties seem to all be on the level, Vizelle discovers. No one seems particularly untrustworthy.
Seeing how there's no spies in their midsts, Vizelle lets Lieutenant Gaines show them around the city. Mainly how much housing there was, how many jobs are ready to be taken, and how they've already set up proper defenses around the perimeters.
Elena waited for the man to receive his orders, then had him wait outside. "I have interrogated the Confessor and her reasons for betrayal. Apparently, the power was what she was after. She then begged to be spared. Are the orders unchanged to her?" She then paused. "Reward, my lord?" She asked, curiously.
