"Unless of course, you want the assassin to strike." Jarlaxle smirked, "You are not used to dealing with complicated drow politics, are you a loner?"

Was he calling him stupid now? That was less appealing than being run around with words. Sevilin had a die hard philosophy of getting things done and quite playing around. Easy to see as he was labeled sometimes...well, outside the Llothtian community. "I more of don't care for the complications of such a community in general. But yes I suppose that would be the correct term for me. Do you apply the same to yourself or do you think yourself better than that?"

"I think that it is wise to not allow your emotions to interfere with being a drow." Jarlaxle said rather calmly, "Your impaitence will be your death."

Zahara barely batted an eye, by now she was used to surprise attacks from the imps. They tended to do that, just bounce in and leap all over her. Pasting a smile on her face she glanced down at them on the floor and her eyes widened, they were all...dressed up and nice looking and was that ...a flower they were holding? For her? How sweet. She couldnt' help but smile and she scooped both of them off the floor and hugged htem both tightly. "I've missed you two troublemakers," she whispered to them as she squeezed them tightly. "Where have you two been?" Finally, some semblance of normalcy in her life, the imps. Had to love continiuty. They never changed. things most found painful they found fun. Simple creatures really but so sweet and cute and lovable. yes, Zahara Val'Ril actually found something lovable. Alert the gods.

Again avoiding questions that were asked of him, proving all the more that this conversation was not being benificial to Sevilin's person. "Being a drow...or being a 'true' drow?" Though only a slight scoff and a shrug from the rune mage to the general. "Impatience...perhaps. But at least that will be my death rather than something else I would much less prefer."

"I want to live forever, and currently the only way I am going to do that is by providing the Blue Skinned one and his allies, Sevilin, with the ample oppertunity to make themselves useful." Much potential in this one, should he surrender some more of his soul to the darkness.
"When the time comes, will you turn your back on the Blue Skinned one, and leave, or stand and fight, either way, I care not." Seriously, he didn't care if this one ran and hid, like a true drow most certainly would.
"But, alas, dark times call for desperate measures. Three Auxerleries of orks await the Blue Skins doors, they are armed with sticks, stones, and oracles. Your plagues and undead will be useless against them."
"Would you like to know more?"

"She's hallucinating. You have something prepared to stop that?"
"Yes, sir. I prepared for that eventuality."
"She won't hide from me, no matter where she goes." His smile spread, grew toothy. "She won't even be granted the blessings of the comatose, the insane. The refuge of her mind won't exist." He took the potion that Right Hand gave to him. "Oh yes."
"You'll have a smaple for me to work with soon?" A hopeful expression.
"In an hour. You'll have what you need in an hour. Then we can start with the rapid birth of an empire." He chuckled as he left his Right Hand.
The day she met a large scary dragon.....he was huge. Far beyond anything she had ever thought possible. His great head loomed before her, ready it seemed to gobble her up. And yet the green one just stood there, watching her patiently. Her small hand reached out and touched his muzzle, and he closed his eyes as if he enjoyed it. She giggled. And then her sight was gone, and the visions started.
In a painful haze she felt something trickle down her throat, and she was forced to swalllow lest she choke. It had a foul taste unlike the usual silvery liquid she was usually fed. She cough, opened her eyes.
He was there again. This time in his true form...or at least the only thing she could trust as his true form. She was even starting to doubt that.
"Oh good, you're awake. Wouldn't want you to miss the fun."
She had hoped her body had become numb to such things, but he would not grant her such reprive. Her body and bed covered in her own blood and other unpleasant liquids, she was always in pain and she never got used to it.
Her scream filled the halls when his fingers dug into her abdomen, his nails tearing straight through her flesh. He took his time, she prayed for death.

They giggled and high fived when they got hugs. Plan one, success! "These flowers are for you Star Flower! We couldn't find anymore real ones though,s o we had to make them."
Hey! She missed them! Step two, success!
"We've been trying to find suits our size. But all we could get were the jackets."
"And ties."
"Sorry, I ate the shoes."
At the moment, they were enjoying being hugged. They didn't get alot of chances to touch Star Floer. it was like touching happiness it'self.

He perhaps gained back a scrap of his attention. "In other wods you want to manioulate others for your own sake. How admirable, common trait of any drow worthy of the task." Though as to his fight or flee options? That wasn't given and answer for Sevilin didn't know that answer either. And only would he know it when the time to decide was upon him.
"If your tongue cares to continue, by ears will continue to listen, no?" Simple as that really now wasn't it? Sevil;in extended his neck no further than it needed to be, carful of his self guarding. Though Jarlaxel still made it sound as if he would go tell Malik, or the general actually wanted him to, perhaps trying to goad him into it.
Would he? Depended.

"The undead will be worthlesss because the Oricles can create zones of Grmsh, which destroys unliving flesh, and banashes unattached souls." More or less accurate, "They will be accompanied by no less than eight hydras. I believe two of them are fire-breathing."
"They also are prepared to fight Ogres, ones who know no pain, and they expect necromancy to be used against them, in all its forms. Grmsh has prepared them well for this task, perhaps he wishes for them to suceed."

She hugged them a bit longer squeezing them far too tightly for comfort for most, but the imps were not most. She set them down and straightened their little jackets and ties. "You two look very handsome," she said taking the paper flowers from them. Walking over to her dresser she rooted through one of her drawers until she found two hairpins and pinned one flower in her hair and the other she twined into the webbing on her collar. She couldn't pin it to her skirt because, she didn't' have a skirt on today, thanks to Malik. But she made sure that she was wearing both of them so as not to hurt their feelings. "They're beautiful, thank you both very much." She stifled a laugh when Jell admitted that he'd eaten the shoes. "That's alright, it looks much better without shoes. I'm not wearing shoes, see?" she wiggled her bare toes to draw attention to them and grinned. "Now you're just like me."

Grmsh he assumed to be some diety of sorts. Not one he'd head of but he wasn't stupid, it was easy to figure out. "How cute...using the aid of one who is all powerful." He scoffed at that, another beilef of his...if you couldn't do it on your own then you weren't worthy to do it in the first place. Plain and simple. "Seems a bit overkill to me...hardly worth the resources."
But again a shrug. Malik too was resourcful, he knew that. Not to mention that if it so happened to be that Sevilin was forced into this ploy, he sure as hell was resourceful. "So then you wish for me to relay this so that he may change his tactics and be prepared. My my, but we are turning our back aren't we?"

The sqeezing was wonderful, and left them with this great feeling of being short of air.
Jaun shook his head. "Nope, we did it forst, so that measn yuo're like us." Happy days. Jell wiggled his toes in similar fashion.
They grinned broadly when she attached the flowers to her person, but fronwed when they relized what else she was wearing. "Star Flower! Aren't you cold?"

"Unless, this is only part of one much more elaborate plan of the Princeling." The drow smiled, "But, crushing the orks benefits me. I will not have to kill them myself." No need to mention all the details, just enough to encourage someone else to do the dirty work, though, Jarlaxle was becoming rather lazy in his old age.
"Mind you, you will gain little from killing them all. Perhaps some hostages would reveal greater plans?"

Another scoff and a shake of his head. Looking to pass on his own work to others. Wouldn't surprise Sevilin in the least if he was behind the plan, looking to not be blamed for the slaughter of his own followers.
"Pointers now...how...considerate of you. Mayhaps I'll keep that in mind and perhaps I'll pass that information along now. We'll see what time does to guide my actions, won't we Jarlaxle?"
