"Send me the coordinates, I'll come to see you. If we want to go out in public, we can just go after. I'll see you soon!" She signs off. Bec chuckles. "Dancing?"
The trooper nods, carefully scooping up Wynne. Finos shrugs. "Making notes, and examining some of the other tech around here. We were so focused on the planet interface that there wasn't much time to examine the rest of it in detail." She explains.
"When we arrive we will blockade and quarantine the planet." Vladimir began. "Any merchant vessels, orbital defense platforms, or planetary defense ships are to be on lockdown until the Inquisition can properly inspect and certify the absence of demonic presence upon them." he looked squarely at the admiral and stated. "Admiral Artax, you will oversee the fleet operation in orbit and co-ordinate with Inquisition forces to achieve that end. Aside from the Legion no one is to go down to the planet, and until the Inquisition gives the 'all clear' nothing is to leave the planet."Several hours later, the captains stand around the holographic planning table. Prime among them are Logan, who stands confidently, examining strategic information
and the Lust Rider, who eyes up Artax, a naked woman clinging to him.
Artax ignores his attention, instead electing to give a standard report about their space forces. Nothing has changed since the last report, and luckily it seems that there are no enemy space forces around Lars III, or at least that's what the planetary defence force and Inquisition report. Also there is Mother Selene, though she hangs back, not speaking on military matters, since it's not her field, but ready to give advice about the demons if necessary.
"I wouldn't mind getting a peek at you dancing." Bec smirks. "For educational purposes, of course."
The group echoes his statement, uttering "For the Emperor."
"Thank you Mother," Vladimir said taking back control of the briefing. "We'll take that under advisement and alter our strategy as necessary once we reach Lars III. Unless there are any questions, Commanders, brief your Company Captains and prepare your Chapters for War."
Artax nods. "The vessel was apparently unrecoverable. Utterly infested with demons." She shrugs. "The captain on site opted to destroy the ship."
"Everything's been fine, if uneventful. My sister's been a little restless lately, but beyond that, nothing." She sighs. "I've been looking forward to spending time together."
Vladimir nodded, "A wise choice. I wonder how the demons gained access. What was the ship's point of origin? Flight Path? Crew and cargo manifest? Passenger list? I trust an investigation has been launched." He didn't intend for his comment to sound as a threat, but there was very little that came from him that wasn't interpreted in such a manner.
Artax crosses her arms, frowning, the action having the effect of raising up her breasts to make them look more prominent against the uniform. "All the appropriate actions have been taken. If you thought you could do a better job, you already had your chance."
Sitra blushes a little at the praise, before perking up at the mention of the scrolls. "Actually, yes!" She grins. "Thanks to your help, last time, I think I've narrowed the location of the cache down to a single star system."
"You're more than welcome to come with me." She grins. "In fact, I'd be disappointed if you didn't."
“I was thinking that we could go investigate it together, since the place is not too far from Samodiva... So of course I would be happy to accompany you.” Eanne admitted, feeling quite happy to hear that Sitra wanted her to come along. “But that's for the future. Let's focus on the present and what we should do now.”
"Indeed." Sitra nods. "I'll let you take the lead on that."
