"It would be my pleasure my lord. I shall depart at once."

With the call ended, Yannika requested a vehicle and driver to take her to Lord Winderhold's manor and went to depart her family's estate.

A shuttle quickly arrives, along with Imperial guard troops, taking her to an estate on the other end of the noble district. Winterhold's manor is less impressive than her father's, but not altogether unimpressive. Upon landing, a servant quickly escorts her to a comfortable looking lounge area, a few couches surrounding a lit fireplace, with bookcases against the wall. On one of the couches sits an elderly man, who beckons her over to join him, looking older and more frail than her father, though with gene therapy a noble's age is always hard to tell.

"Your eminence." He smiles weakly, patting the seat beside him.

"My Lord." Yannika greeted the older man with a polite curtsy before she took the offered seat beside him. "Thank you for agreeing to meet with me. I'm hopeful we can come to an arrangement that is mutually beneficial. But forgive me for correcting you, it is merely 'Sister', I haven't reached such a renowned position that offers that title."

"Of course." He smiles. "Beautiful, and humble, too? The apple has fallen quite far from the tree, hasn't it?" He chuckles, looking over her body.

"I would be willing to sell, and not at too high a price, but there is something I'd like from the emperor. There are military forces currently in the Ulysses sector on loan to your father. I want the emperor to reassign them to serve me."

"I will discuss it with him my lord." Yannika said with a bow of her head. "Is there perhaps a private room I might be able to use?"

Scanning him psionically, there's the usual different 'feeling' about his powers, due to him not being human. But scanning Urik further, she begins to detect something 'wrong' about his power, something that feels unnatural and out of place.

"Urik was normal for most of his life." Omera explains. "He had some power, but it was weak, not enough for him to become a sorcerer, or anything like that. Then, a few years ago," she sighs, "his powers developed rapidly. He enjoyed it, at first, but before too long, they grew too much for him to control. He started having headaches, then migraines, then seizures. He would be fine most of the time, then suddenly his powers would flare up, and he'd be completely debilitated."

She sighs, looking at her brother, before facing Vizelle again. "I just...want him to be healthy again. Happy again."

"How odd." Vizelle pondered, feeling the unnatural energy in the young man. "So, you are saying he just suddenly gained more power?" She said as she continues examining him, trying to determine what was wrong with his energy. And whether or not she could extract it.

She nods. "I'm guessing there was a cause, but he never told me about anything it could have been. He may have not noticed it."

Checking Urik, Vizelle sees that his power is more akin to ancient psionics than modern ones, and if she tries to absorb his power, there's a risk that she could damage herself like Urik did.
 
Tjf said:
"Of course." He nods. "I'll lend you one." He gives her directions to a nearby room.

Yannika followed the directions and once alone in the room she opened up a private comm to The Emperor. "Your Majesty." She greeted him formally in the hope that he would pick up this was not a personal call. "I'm calling in regards to the business you have with my father. I pursuing a promising means of securing what you ask, and as such am at Baron Winterhold's manor. He's willing to assist, if you find it suitable to redeploy the military forces you have stationed under my father's command in the Ulysses Sector to serve Lord Winterhold instead."

She purposefully left the request open so he'd have the opportunity to say no. But with how upset Carius was with his grandfather she doubted he'd say 'No'.

"Indeed." Carius responds quickly to her call. "Inform him I agree. It would be best if Lord Wulfkin only found out later, though."

"Fuu." Vizelle sighed as she noticed the ancient psionic power within him, "How interesting. Wherever did he find this "disease" I wonder." She hummed, "Well then, I shall try and heal him once I've regained my strength. In the meantime, simply watch over him for now." She said, trying to determine if she could, instead, redirect the energy into another item, much like Varrick did with the spheres.

Thinking, she decides that that might be difficult, but it would be much safer than trying to absorb it herself.

"I will." Omera nods. "Oh, and um, thank Verner for the extra blanket. That was very kind of him." She smiles.

"As you request." Yannika replied. "I shall inform Lord Winterhold at once. I hope to return to the palace quickly my Emperor."

Once the call was over, Yannika returned to the sitting room with Baron Winterhold. "His Majesty agrees to your terms my lord. Thank you for your assistance." the last she said with another curtsy. "With your permission I'll take my leave and return to discuss the matter with my father."

"Hmm." That is another option for later. Vizelle thought to herself, smiling at Omera. "Fufu, do thank him yourself. He's a little odd at the start, but he can be the sweetest thing once you get to know him." She replied, before leaving the room. For now, Vizelle decides to retire for the day, unless something else comes up.

"Of course, my dear. If you ever wish to discuss something else, my door is open." He nods.

The disciples leave her alone, allowing her to rest. The planet is quiet for a while, letting Vizelle wait until she wants to open the northern door, or until the reinforcements come, whichever comes first.
 
Tjf said:
Reluctantly, Yannika is allowed back into his office. "What do you want, girl?" He sighs.
Click to expand...
Yannika strode into the room confident. "Hi Dad. I just got back from visiting Lord Winterhold and I have some good news. He's willing to sell you some systems in the Ulysses Sector." she let the carrot dangle for a bit before she added. "All you have to do is give me the evidence I want." she also neglected to mention that he'd lose the military forces in the Ulysses Sector as her son requested. "I get what I want, you get what you want. How about it?"

If it failed, she could always try Velve's idea. But she hoped it wouldn't come to that.

"I should have known you wouldn't give up so easily." He looks at her for a long while, weighing the pros and cons.

Finally, he smiles mirthlessly. "Very well. I accept. Your bastard's true lineage will be forgotten to history, and I get what I've wanted for so long." Lord Wulfkin chuckles. "But, there's one condition. You called me your pimp before, right? Well, if I'm a pimp, it seems only fair that I should get to sample the merchandise." His chuckle turns into a vicious grin. "Your body, in exchange for your son."

Once the next day arrived, Vizelle calls for her disciples, along with Jaya, and Natasi for their exploration party. Leaving Iona in charge of the city for now, telling her to make sure Wynne continues to get fucked, and to prevent her from contacting anyone outside.

Vizelle swaps ships, using the attack ship Iona was using, she, Rikkert, Verner, Alexandros, Halipha, and Jaya head back into the research facility.
