"Of course, His Majesty asks that you attend a meeting with a...."
She searches for a title only to realize she has not been given any for this fellow.
"Mister Takeda, he represents a party which has interests of some sort on Dathomir and seeks to discuss with you and arrange permissions to travel to the world. I apologize, the information I have is severely lacking on the matter, and I still have all the arrangements to make. The meeting is to be in the Thu'ree Hall, in 3 hours. Lady Cilla, and possibly the Emperor himself may be in attendance as well. You will be expected at that time, good day to you Lady Ywlame"
Even though the woman's words were slightly curt, there was no manner of mocking, superiority or insult. She simply was relaying the information she had to give in its most basic form for clarity. The woman bows a departing greeting, and hopes Ywlame will not pump her for more information, she has none, and now has only 20 minutes to make it across the way.

I see. A Mister Takeda? I'm sure that can be arranged depending on just what he wants. I will be there at the appointed time. Ywalme's face is alive with curiosity and interest. And I thought this was going to be a boring day, things have just got more interesting. She thinks.
No matter I'm sure the Emperor will explain in the meeting. Good day. One moment... where is the Thu'ree Hall? Could you send someone to escort me there? She asks suddenly realizing that she doesn't know where the Thu'ree Hall is.

- Ywlame's Quarters -
She nods to Lady Ywlame,
"Of course, I will make sure you have a personal assistant as well as a proper guard escort befitting your station. I really must take my leave though, I have to see to the other arrangements of the meeting. Lady Cilla is very particular that I handle this one for some reason. If you require anything else, send me a message."
She hands Lady Ywlame a card of filmsi with her com-info and then departs in a rush.
*************************************************************
Over the next several hours she spends meeting the clothier, getting the individual off to Takeda and checking back in later with the tailor to make sure everything will be ready on time. She has Thu'ree Hall prepared, including a buffet lunch as well as various refreshments. She understand that all parties speak basic, but arranges for 2 Imperial protocol droids to be there just in case. She arranges an assistant for both parties, and makes sure each has an armed escort, one to keep any potential trouble at bay, and two to prevent either party making any trouble. Not having any idea what is going on she assigns Lady Ywlame 4 guards, and this Takeda person 4 as well. Normally she would assign a lesser number to the more insignificant party, but in the case of Takeda which she does not know details about, she is more concerned with guards being present in case he is an unknown threat.
She is just getting her own things taken care of when she receives a message that Lady Cilla will be late arriving, apparently some world leader has arrived and is tying her up at the moment as she waits upon Lord Ire.
As she makes her way to Thu'ree hall, she coms security to make triple sure that there will be full surveillance and holo-record upon the Hall for the meeting. She takes her position very seriously, and unknown to her, Lady Cilla thinks quite highly of her and her administrative abilities.
Come the appointed time, she waits with her own little detachment of 8 guards, it is not a necessary item but it is proper protocol, for she at the moment will be representing the Empire and must fit the part accordingly. She turns as she hears the nearby turbolift tone it's arrival upon this floor, and adopts a dignified stance to receive the "guests".

Thank you. That would be most helpful. Tell Lady Cilla and the Emperor I will be there at the appointed time. She inclines her head as she takes the filmsi card and tucks it into her belt. Good day to you. She says then closes the door. She goes to her closet to find something suitable to wear for the occasion. When she has made her selection she takes a shower and then gets ready. She is dressed more formally than normal as this meeting is important and the Emperor will be attending.  A little before the appointed time her escort arrives she answers the door and follows them out to Thu'ree Hall. She arrives a few moments before the meeting is to begin. She walks with great dignity from the turbo lift into the room. She is preceded by the assistant and flanked by the guard escort. She nods to the Lady Cilla's assistant. Good day.

Post by Takeda on Apr 28, 2011 2:55:25 GMT -5
Takeda awoke the next morning, and after his normal meditation, exercise, and bathing, was delighted to partake of an excellent breakfast. Until the clothier arrived to arrange for suitable garments, he spent more time accessing available information on Dathomir and studying it. In notes of its published history were some interesting clues, but most of the facts of the planet were simply unknown or closely guarded secrets. One of the more interesting tit-bits was it was suspected of being the original home planet of the Rancor, a species that was on 5 of the 6 worlds of the N'sai, legend had it that they had been brought along in the time of exile. It took some serious willpower to deal with the clothier, the selections of fabric ranged from distastefully plain, to akwardly garrish; and it was a trial to undergo making the man understand what proper pants were. The man kept insisting that robes and a sloppy trouser with leggings was acceptable mode of formal dress, and eventually got things sourted out enough to feel comforably dignified. He was used to a much different arrangement, but what was finally arrived at was pleasing enough to him in the mirror. He made arrangments for funds to be transferred to the man for the fees, he would not leave any of that upon the RGE, they had already been very generous. All preparations made, he picked up his sword and carried it reversed in his left hand, his long-knife already tucked through his belt as it always was. This earned him a questioning look from the guards, and a comment from the assistant saying it would not be proper to attend a conference armed. Takeda replied that it was a cultural matter, it was in truth, but it was based on cold-pragmatisim, never go to a treaty table empty handed... be well armed. A short while later Takeda stepped off the turbolift, drawing looks not only from his size and reptilian features, but apparently this man was very brave, for he wore a highly unsusual purple and brown pair of flowing trousers, much like a skirt. A dark purple clerical coat with fine gold brocade in it, and surmounted by a off-white loose robe that came down to his thighs and had short loose sleeves. First impressions were something he understood quite well, he measured his pace carefully, taking long and purposeful steps as he walked, making his "entourage" walk at a near jog to keep up, but carried himself in a manner that was calm and seemingly unhurried. He purposefully stopped at a Kwa distance from what he assumed was the Imperial Representative, and the Dathomiri Ambassador, it was not until this morning he discovered that it might be a woman he was dealing with across the table as it were. He bowed a greeting to each in turn, the Imperial first, "Good day to you both."   |

*While in the turbo lift Aslan places his weapons back in there place.*
Aslan watches Thalis bow before the Emperer. He watches amazed for several minutes as Thalis Introduces him.
With quick strides Aslan stands before the emporor and makes a quick bow.
"Your Majesty I am The Czar of Tion and Emperor of the SGE but i see myself at a fault. I have cornered myself and made a few mistakes to which I will regret. I stand before you here today to discuss the surrender of the SGE and to add the entire Tion System into the Empire."
Aslan cautiously waits for the Emperors Response hoping that he used the correct words .

Ire sits in his chair, keeping quiet as he dissects the words coming from Mund, wondering why this man has truly come to Carratos this day. When the Czar of Tion says that he wishes to join the Empire and bring his planet into the fold of th RGE, Ire can't help but feel a slight victory for never having to fire a shot. If Mund knew that Ire had sent agents to Tion to test the SGE resolve things might be different but as of now the would-be Emperor shows no sign of knowing anything but his own concern.
"Your concerns are well reported to me, Czar." Ire says calmly as he stays seated in his throne; this is the moment Ire choses to deceive Mund to see how the man will react, the Taozin brestplate that masks Ire's presence in the Force should hide the deception that is mixed with truth. "Imperial agents have been on Tion ever since you went on GNN claiming the RGE and GA have been terrorizing the galaxy for far too long. I see that you have concerns, I would be concerned if I were you, but if I wanted Tion as part of the Empire I wouldn't need to go the diplomatic route. With that said, what is stopping me from having you killed, parading your body before the loyal masses of the RGE and taking Tion by force?"
Ire sists there for a second before rising to his feet slowly, and in a show of his power bends the Force to his will to teleport himself to within three feet of Mund and responding for the Czar of Tion while looking him dead in the eye. "NOTHING! That is what's stopping me, nothing! Your Empire is no Empire; you have no fleet, no military worthy of the title and no ground to stand on. If I was truly terroizing the galaxy, I would have come to Tion and placed your head on a pike when you first insulted me and my Empire. It is mostly because of the RGE that the galaxy has rebuilt itself in the wake of the Yuuzhan Vong War, can you claim the same... no, you cant.
Ire turns his back to Mund, a brash move for the Emperor but calculated, and walks up the stairs to his throne and turns around when he reaches the small landing. Having put Mund in his proper place, in his own opinion, Ire speaks with a calmer tone. "However, you have come here in good faith so I shall hear the reasons why you wish to join my Empire. I suggest you give me a good reason... Emperor."

*Aslan shown no emotions as the Emporer flashes in front of him.*
He also notes that his practice of be in tough positions has ruled out intimidation it does not work on him.
He takes in what the Emperor has said and he lets it soak inside of him.
Still remaining calm Aslan says."Well your Majesty I did make a mistake in going to the GNN and trying to expand my borders. That leads me to the reason that I am here. I meant no disrespect to you or the empire I see my wrong and I see how your Empire is flourishing i am here because of my colossal mistake and failure and I apologize from that I want my people to be apart of what you have built they need the RGE I will step down my power and release my title if you accept Tion into the RGE."
Aslan can feel the tension growing between them .

Ire stands there listening to Mund plead not for himself but the sake of his people, something Ire can relate too even though Mund failed in his attempt to grab a small Empire and Ire did not, the Emperor respects Mund's notion. "That is correct, you will be giving up your title, the simple fact your life is yours is because you were not under my rule before now. Your insult of me begs for challenge but while I sense the dark side within you I can sense your lack of control and are not worthy of death. From here on out, Tion is part of the Empire... do you have issue with that Governor?"
Ire's question might be a quandary, however its true the RGE held no dominion over Tion, the Emperor cant ignore the fact that Mund's life was not his to take... yet. If Ire never proved he isn't the type to emulate the Emperor's of the old Empires, and the Force knows he has many times, he just did.

Ywalme had been quietly talking to the Lady Cilla's representative when the Kwa, Takeda enters the room. She looks up and gets a shock.
The slight widing of her eyes is the only indication of her shock at his appearance. Her first thought is what is a Kwi doing here? But then she notices how he is dressed. That is no Kwi. She thinks. She also notes the weapons he is carrying. And a warrior. She also senses his strong presence in the Force.
When he says.
"Good day to you both."
She has recovered enough from her shock to answer in kind.
And good day to you as well. Allya's fortune smile upon you in your endeavors. She inclines her head regally and gracefully. She studies him wondering what is he possibly could want from her and why he reminds her of the Kwi. Unlike most Nightsisters, Ywalme has always been fascinated by the Kwi since she was a child.
Her mother and clanswomen may have called them useless vermin but Ywalme had sensed even at a young age a mystery surrounding them and air of sadness that seemed to cling to them. She had tried to find as much as she could about them but most of her clan didn't either know or care about them so much of what she wanted to know and her curiosity about them was as yet unsatisfied.
She turns to Lady Cilla's assistant and says.
When do you think we will start? Have you heard from the Lady Cilla or His Highness?

Shadow quietly steps back when the Emperor begins to speak to the leader of Tion. He smirks slightly and shakes his head sensing and feeling the tension growing between the two men. "Oh, this is going to be definately interesting." He mutters quietly and continues to watch the event unfold.

-Ywalme's Quarters-
Outside the room, Cilla arrives and presses the room's call button to announce her presence at the door. The head of Palace Aides stands their patiently as she waits for an answer to the door; the aide, who is already inside the room, does her duties and answers the call. The aide moves aside to allow Cilla passage inside and Cilla greets both the Kwa and the Dathomir envoy with a bow.
"Greetings guests of the Empire." Cilla says with a aura of protocal minced with her sincere tone. "I apologize for my late arrival but I have taken the liberty of arranging the use of a conference room for you to discuss your business. The Palace chef has prepared a variety of foodstuffs from across the galaxy for you eat while you speak. The Emperor always jokes of never conducting business on an empty stomach."
The dry humor, if that is indeed what it is, is apparent in Cilla's voice. She motions for the two of them to come with her as she graciously bows her head and begins to walk towards the door. "This way please."

Aslan feels what the Eemporer is saying to him,a wave of relief rushes through him.Aslan cooly says."Thank you sir i appretiat it Tion can now be free of fear from war and violence you have liberated them from the dangers of the galaxy.
Aslan wonders what the empire is going to bring to tion. More jobs, updated technology.Suddenly something runs threw his head what about Tion's defense. He cautiously works enough inner strength to ask the emperor.
Your Majesty I have one more concern what could you do for Tion's defense just in case anything happens.
Aslan studies the emperor wondering what his real form is under the robes what race he is.

Ire walks up the few remaining stairs and sits back on his throne, he senses the need clamp down on Tion quickly, prove what a true Emperor can do for his people. Bringing up a monitor from the side of the throne, Ire begins to look at what ships are availible to create a Tion defense fleet for the planet. Selecting a few ships, Ire looks down at Mund and informs him of what is to come. "I will send a fleet to Tion to act as its defense force for the time being, call it a gift to the people of Tion. The fleet will be under RGE command and will be stationed there to provide defense against any enemy dumb enough to attack you."
When Ire presses the button to retract the screen, the Emperor relaxes in his chair, the brief teleportation took a lot out of him but he proves he can hide it by not showing too much and keeping a razor-like edge to his handling of Mund. He then informs the newly appointed Governor of what he's gotten into by surrendering to the Empire. "As part of the Empire; your people will be protected by RGE forces, your people will have representation in the RGE Senate and your people will be taken care of as members of the RGE. Remember one thing from here on out Governor Mund; I am the type of Emperor who rewards success and loyalty and punishes failure and treachery, pray you or your people never give me cause to ever prove this point. Do you understand?"

Aslan stands tall with his hands by his side.
Your Majesty i would not dare challenge you or you empire and i thank you for the defence fleet you have granted tion.
Aslan loyaly bows to Ire then quickly gets back up.
He says quickly.Thank you your Majesty but I must travel back to Tion and let them know what has happend here today.May I have an escort back to my ship I must get back.
Aslan waits patiently for The Emperors response.

"Yes, you may have an escort, I'll order a squadron of starfighters to take you back to your ship." Ire says plainly. "Tell your people they have nothing to fear but fear itself. Good day to you, Governor."

Ywalme inclines her head at Cilla's greeting. Good day, Lady Cilla. You're apology is accepted and we understand you are a busy person doing the Emperor's business. We are honored that you have taken the time to greet us personally.Besides we just arrived and have not been waiting long.
Ywalme glances at Takeda then back at Cilla. The arrangements sound more than adequate to me if my counterpart agrees we will proceed there. His Highness is gracious and that sounds delicious.
She smiles at Cilla's wittism and follows her into the conference room. Of course.
If you would be so kind, Lady Cilla, to introduce us? Ywalme glances at Takeda.We haven't yet been formally introduced and I wish to be able to address this gentlebeing properly.

Takeda nods a bow to both of them again as they speak in turn,
"Greeting to you Lady Cilla, I am ready to begin if both of you are."
Takeda considering himself at this point to be the lesser party of this meeting, follows the other two. Cilla's humor about the Emperor's saying passes completely over his head, for him it sounds like the wise advice of experience.

"Lord Takeda of the Kwa meet Envoy Burz of Dathomir, Envoy Burz of Dathomir meet Lord Takeda of the Kwa." Cilla says as she walks down the hall and escorts the two to a private conference room. The room has a large round meeting table in the center and a buffet style banquet with various food stuffs that all are likely to enjoy. "Please feel free to eat and discuss your business in peace, I have many other duties I must take care at the moment so please excuse me. If you need anything feel free to ask one of the palace aides. Good day to you."
Cilla then leaves almost as abruptly as she appeared. Unknown to Takeda or Ywalme, Cilla heads to a monitoring room to watch the meeting through the conference room's camera and audio recording systems so she may report as to the nature of the talks between the Kwa and Envoy to Ire.

Thank you Lady Cilla. A pleasure Lord Takeda of the Kwa. She inclines her head at the introduction. So that is what he is. Kwa... Kwa... why does that name sound familiar. I know I heard it someplace before. She thinks.
She follows Cilla into the private conference room. She nods at Cilla's information. Thank you. Of course we have taken enough of your valuable time. She glances at Takeda to see if he is in agreement then back again at Cilla. We will. Good day to you.
Then when Cilla leaves she says to Takeda. Perhaps we should sit down and then you can tell me what it is you wish from me. She glances at the buffet and it certainly looks very good. Unless you want to eat something first? Then we can talk while we eat.
