  • Eliazar smiles. "As you will, Lady Grey." He bows slightly. "I will make the arrangements, awaiting only your most convenient evening in the next two weeks, if you would be so kind as to name it." He straightens and reaches inside the handsome co…
  • His face falls at first. He glances up surreptitiously then brightens again as understanding dawns and a smile begins to play upon his lips as they walk back. "Ah.... I see. A challenge that will be met, your highness. A challenge that will, most …
  • "Ah, yes. On the planet my armor is much the same. Always balancing between the offworld nobles and the zealots." He sighs, shakes his head, looking very tired for a moment. "I had rather brightened at the notion that, as we are both neutral partie…

  • Eliazar smiles. "In truth, my Lady, your husband and those who follow him are an increasingly unstable force on this planet. I need consistent insight into him if I am to keep our peace, or at least limit the damage." He sighs, turns toward Alvega,…
  • Something seems to change in the Lord Steward. He seems to have lost that pleasent unflappable exterior and be... actually nervous? "Yes...Well...uh.". He stops. Then opens his mouth again and closes it. He chuckles to himself "Oh, dear," and he …
  • Gorey meets the bet though you saw the hesitation, however brief. Then he shakes his head. "It's the first duty of solider, even more a nobleman. If he dies in battle, what use is his sacrifice, the honor he brings to the family name, if there is no…
  • Count Eliazar smiles as if reading your thoughts. "I did not want to add to your considerable duties without your consent my lady. It is not dangerous, not a native Xurian species, and the capsule will provide it with everything it needs for quite a…
  • He takes in the room as he enters, still with a contented look on his face. He nods. "I should like nothing better." He comes to stand in front of the chair you indicated, setting the opaque glossy cylinder on your desk. He then pushes some concea…
  • "I have no doubt" Count Eliazar says, then waves his men away, even giving a stern look to his chief bodyguard who looks not at all happy about the situation. One of them hands him a black, opaque cylinder, about a foot long and 6 inches in diameter…
  • "Indeed we are not." He says softly. Your compassion does you credit, and the fate of our fellow off-worlders is a duty I take most seriously" He studies her profile in the starlight. His fingertips skim delicately across the back of the hand that i…
  • "Reputation is a performance." Eliazar says to the woman on his arm, as he looks up at the stars "Ah, my lady, all of us must perform for others at some time or other. There are so very few people with whom we can set that performance aside. Along w…
  • Gorey ups his bet. Kles folds. Only Hearst is still in with the two of you. "Well, you groundhogs are better for that kind of labour." He says it mildly examining his tiles."But it's a shame it never seems to pay off. By the dreamer, if you'd tak…
  • The Lord Steward smiles at Alvega, he seems to enjoy the metaphor game that has spun out between them. "While that is a risk, it's important for the gardener to trust their instincts in these matters, and I daresay yours are... exquisite." He offer…
  • He accepts the gesture smoothly, his hands are warm. "Aside from the considerable pleasure of passing some time with perhaps the most accomplished woman on this planet?" He smiles, easily. "Aside from that, reason enough I assure you, I have state…
  • Count Eliazar brushes the edge of the one of the dancing ladies with a fingertip. "Indeed my lady, except for those plants that are symbiotic and thrive even more when paired with the appropriate partner." I had no idea Alvega was such a social p…
  • "Is wigged." Zee says. "And I tasked three men, but one of them was injured in training. His interest..." The shuttle lock opens, cutting Zee off, to reveal the Lord Steward. While he dressed handsomely, he is not, in fact, in full ceremonial rega…
  • The count smiles again. "Now, my dear Baroness, What garden would not miss such a mistress?" He gestures towards Alvega, "But, I propose that two people who share a passion for the subject might enjoy each other's company and delight in the manifold…
  • Kles grunts, pretending to evaluate his own tiles, but his eyes gave away his interest. Gorey shifts his eyes between you as he arranges his own tiles in the classic pattern, he's nothing if not predictable. "Gone into business then, Kles? Kanishka,…
  • The steward smiles in appreciation as he examines the flowers. "Ah, they are most extraordinary, my Lady. Indeed quite beyond your report of them." he says looking up at the Baroness. "Quite out of place I think, and the more lovely for it. I have n…
  • You see the jibe about reputation land on Gorey. It's barely the flicker of an eye, the tensing of muscle in the face, but it was there. Kles deals your tiles, raising a cool eyebrow and a lazy smirk as he does. "Is it then? For me or for you? Wh…
  • The open chair was on the other side of Kles. Gorey's smile sharpens to something more predetory "A modest 10,000, old boy, just a friendly game at this stage after all." Gorey says, "and nothing to a man with such good contracts. Unless you're lo…
  • The Lord Steward smiles warmly at her. "Indeed, Madam, I believe that would be ideal, though I regret the neglect of your fine hospitality," He nods toward the still steaming pot of tea. "I should hate to miss the full glory of a Coscadian bloom." …
  • As charming and seemingly impromptu as he is, Count Eliazar seems unconcerned that neither Alvega's husband nor her companion is not at home. He takes the proffered chair. "Yes, thank you. As for the visit I confess a truant disposition, Lady Gorey…
  • It is hard to tell what Sipahi wants as she watches this scene with her strange eyes. They're cybernetic, Strouthos knows, replacements for the ones damaged with her blinding. For all the claims of the priestesses of the Sleeping One of their faith …
  • Micholas bows repeatedly, stammering in his relief, taking Strouthos' hand and pressing it against his forehead as he bows. "Thank you... thank you Sai. Dreamer bless you. I will prove myself l-loyal." Strouthos' eye is caught by a slender silhouet…
  • Micholas pales even more at the threat. His eyes widen. "Please, Sai… please don’t hurt them. They’ve done nothing…" Jaik interrupts in a low rumble. "The Strouthos asked you a question." Micholas nods. “The… it was the lizard who questioned me…
  • The weight of threat in the room make the pilot seem small. He isn’t, in fact, a small person, but he has withered in on himself in fear. Jaik stands in the corner, massive arms crossed, a small mountain of pure threat. It was he who dug Micholas ou…
  • "Lady Corinne," After his wife was finished, Gorey bowed slightly and took Corinne's hand between his large rough ones. His hard eyes tried for some semblance of compassion. "Tarrack was, as you know, more nearly a father to me than my own. I loved …
