Ren The Conjuror: The slave that the Empire sent to discuss a meeting with the Council...
HiddeN: *sniffs*
Ren The Conjuror: Has been freed, by the amazing teamwork of multiple...
TK: *claps*
Ren The Conjuror: teams of individuals who infiltrated the "Shadow Keep" as prisoners.
Rand al'Thor: *grins at Polynikes*
Trendallynn: *looks to her left.*
Mikhail O'Danyon: *nods*
Ren The Conjuror: She remains traumatized after her experience...though I hope that she will be able to share crucial
Ren The Conjuror: information with us regarding the Empire.
Ren The Conjuror: I also wished to address the threats made by a Senator of the Empire...
Ren The Conjuror: At the meeting in Haven, though I was unable to attend, my reports indicate that the Empire
Ren The Conjuror: has threatened to invade Britannia...
Ren The Conjuror: Though it remains unknown even to my spies exactly where they plan on gathering the forces
Ren The Conjuror: to attempt such a bold move....
Ren The Conjuror: Rest assured, that the Britannian Armed Forces, and the citizens of this realm...
Princess Page: *sneezes*
Ren The Conjuror: Will be ready to squash any attempts they may make.
Rand al'Thor: *grins*
Ren The Conjuror: I'm open now for any questions regarding the Empire or the functions of the military...
Ren The Conjuror: should the populace have them.
Trendallynn: Someone at the door.
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: *raises his hand*
Ren The Conjuror: *Looks around the room*
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: *wiggles his fingers*
Ren The Conjuror: *Catches Ra'dian's hand out of the corner of his eyes*
Ren The Conjuror: Yes Chancellor?
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: 'as there been any news as t' whether the Empire 'as installed a new Emporer?
Ren The Conjuror: *Shakes his head*
Zackery: *sips from a flask hidden under jacket*
Ren The Conjuror: I'm afraid that as of late, my....time...to meet wth my informants has been limited.
Ren The Conjuror: As such, I have recieved no reports when I have been available...
Mikhail O'Danyon: *looks over*
Ren The Conjuror: I suspect...
Adol Kristin: *leans against the wall*
Ren The Conjuror: That the Empire remains too unstable to attempt to install a new Emporer...
Ren The Conjuror: My belief is that those who are in control...
Bailey: *raises hand*
Ren The Conjuror: would rather do so from the shadows, rather then make a move to a position as Emporer
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: *nods*
Ren The Conjuror: and expose themselves to the ambition and infighting that is so common among them.
Ren The Conjuror: *Shrugs*
Ren The Conjuror: As a sidenote...
Ren The Conjuror: If anyons should happen to see one of the Justicar's this evening.
Ren The Conjuror: Please ask them to contact me regarding proceeding with the Judicial process
Ren The Conjuror: regarding Talistra.
Ailieve: *raises an eyebrow*
Bailey: I've something to say on that matter
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: *nods*
Ren The Conjuror: *Tilts his head*
Bailey: the Empire, that is
Ren The Conjuror: Aye Councilor?
Bailey: Last week, Miller was contacted by one Zarra of the QdK.
Ren The Conjuror: *Frowns*
Ren The Conjuror: Yes, Senator Zarra...
Bailey: She requested an audience to speak, and was granted a peaceful transport into Minoc.
Ailieve: *leans forward and listens*
Rand al'Thor: *leans back and folds his arms*
Bailey: *catches pigeon through the window*
Bailey: Sorry 'bout that...
Bailey: Anyway, Zarra met with Miller and Hawkeye
Zackery: door?
Tova: yes
Bailey: Miller reported to me some disturbing news that was requested of Minoc.
Bailey: Is now the time to bring that up?
Zackery: open it
Ren The Conjuror: I would say so..
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: Is it relevant to the Empire, or another matter?
Cygorno: *bows to council*
Marvin: What did I tell you about the hood?
Zackery: door?
Bailey: *nods*
Zackery: open it
Zackery: you have seen me
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: *nods*
Queen Nana: sir door please
Zackery: get over it
Bailey: Well, it seems the Empire might be closer to an attack than we think.
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: Please continue then...
Zackery: *smiles*
Marvin: No I won't get over it. Hoods are not to be worn under any circumstances
Zackery: okay then, kick me out
Tucker: nice to see you back Page
Bailey: Zarra requested a non-agression pact of Minoc. The terms would be that ...
Zackery: either way, open the door
Ren The Conjuror: *Frowns*
Zackery: *waits impatiently*
Mikhail O'Danyon: *raises an eyebrow*
Bailey: The Empire would not attack or attempt to conquer Minoc in exchange for our promise to
Zackery: well?
Zackery: speak up man
Bailey: not attack in return, ... or aid any of their enemies.
Ren The Conjuror: Crafty drow wench...
Zackery: don't just sit there staring at me
Ren The Conjuror: What was Minoc's response?
Bailey: Basically, that would mean we would not be able to help any of our allies.
Marvin: You're out of luck I'm afraid.
Bailey: *chuckles*
Zackery: and that means?
Marvin: I've seemed to have misplaced the keys.
Marvin: A pity.
Zackery: well then
Bailey: Well, in simple terms, Miller said ...
Bailey: *chuckles and calms himself*
Zackery: we have a problem , don't we?
Bailey: We said no.
Sir John: *looks at Lord Bailey*
Ren The Conjuror: *Grins and Nods*
Mikhail O'Danyon: *grins*
Rand al'Thor: I bet it was more colorful then that.
Bailey: *grins*
Ren The Conjuror: Zarra as approached many recently it seems...
Marvin: You do.
TK: *giggles*
Ren The Conjuror: In pursuit of knowledge of Darien Flight...
Zackery: not really
Ren The Conjuror: and other ambitions it seems.
Bailey: *nods*
Zackery: paladins always have a way out
Marvin: What do you know, here they are.
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: *raises an eyebrow*
Bailey: We responded that Minoc is not in worry of being conquered.
Ren The Conjuror: She has communicated enough, that it has become obvious, that she is working as an agent....
Marvin: *waves*
Bailey: Thus, a non-agression pact meant nothing to us.
Zackery: jackass
Ren The Conjuror: for the black one, that that again is based only on her statements...
Ren The Conjuror: Which could be misleading.
Trendallynn: *snickers*
Bailey: *nods*
Ren The Conjuror: She appears to be acting as the agent abroad for the Empire...
Ren The Conjuror: I hope that in the future if she contacts you...
Ren The Conjuror: You can pass along a message to me, so that she can be apprehended...
Ren The Conjuror: As an Enemy of the State.
Bailey: Aye, that we did know.
Marvin: Perhaps.
Ren The Conjuror: *Nods*
Bailey: But because she requested an audience via pigeon, we could not arrest her honorably, lest we break
Bailey: the virtues.
Ren The Conjuror: Though Minoc isn't a member of the Armed Forces....
Ren The Conjuror: I would like to express a reminder to those who are...
Ren The Conjuror: That negotiation with Enemies of the State is prohibited...
Ren The Conjuror: without consent of the council or Grand Marshall...
Ren The Conjuror: They have been declared such by the council, and are considered of the highest priority
Ren The Conjuror: when it comes to the apprehension.
Ren The Conjuror: Thank you for the information Councilor.
Mikhail O'Danyon: Hmmm
Bailey: I'd also like to make note that Minoc had no idea of Zarra's intentions until after the request was
Bailey: granted. If we had known it was a negotiation attempt, we would not have granted the request.
Ren The Conjuror: *Nods*
Ren The Conjuror: If you would be so kind Councilor, just ask the Knights to forward any such attempts to me
Ren The Conjuror: so that I may be aware of them.
Bailey: *nods*
Ren The Conjuror: Thank you.
Bailey: With the way the last attempt ended, I doubt we'll have many more requests.
Bailey: *chuckles*
Ren The Conjuror: *Grins and nods*
Ren The Conjuror: *Looks around the room*
Ren The Conjuror: Hrm, I didn't realize that my reports were that boring...
Rand al'Thor: *smiles*
Mikhail O'Danyon: *pretends to wake up from a nap*
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: *snores and then yawns*
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: Oh... err... ye were finished?
Trendallynn: *rubs her eyes and looks up*
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: *chuckles*
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: *pats Ren on the shoulder*
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: I jest.
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: A'ight... were there any o'er items this eve?
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: A'ighty then... we'll let this one be a blessedly short meet.
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: *chuckles*
Mikhail O'Danyon: *grins*
Ailieve: *sighs in relief*
Ra'Dian Fl'Gith: This meet stands adjourned.
Rand al'Thor: *Oh boy.*
Trendallynn: *smiles*
Bailey: *stretches*
