[D5 LA] Red Team

[Zeno Deathwright]

"A really good point," he says with a nod to Moyr. "I suppose it bears figuring out if the cult or the artifact are more powerful."

[Nekoinu]

The Zabrak's smile grew wider. "Ah, see, this is why I called you two for help! My first inclination was to just cut them all down and steal their stuff!" She let out a sinister laugh, as if reveling in the thought of slaughter. "But yeah, I suppose recon would be good."

[Zeno Deathwright]

"Well, my thought would have generally been to do much the same. If it were just the two of us, that would have been my assumed path forward. But Moyr brings an invaluable skill set that makes us far more flexible."

[Moyr Ahaya]

"Power is gained through strength. Not only the one your can draw from your own ability, but also the one you can mobilise. In the end, it's inherently better to be a Sith Lord with minions than without them." She smirked, nodding. "We'll see how it is down there, my lord, before we make a call."

[Nekoinu]

Lord Ralnorrei nodded as she listened to both of their explanations. "How fun! I haven't had a grand journey alongside other Sith in a long time. Most of the time it's just with my dear friend Haydriss!"

[Zeno Deathwright]

"I find such things to be infinitely more enjoyable with people standing beside you," he says with a nod. "More capabilities and potential for building more lasting alliances. So, when would we want to head out? What do you know of the cult?"

[Moyr Ahaya]

"And I like to succeed at complex assignments, and that usually requires more people than just myself." Moyr smirked. "Later tonight or early tomorrow? It should be dark either way." She relaxed a bit.

LA5. Cool.: 3eA 1 success, 2 advantage

[Nekoinu]

"Hm, really up to you guys when we go. I'm not sure if we want to do some recon first or just go knocking on their main door immediately." She then shrugged. "Only bits and pieces. Honestly most of their rhetoric seemed kind of generic."

[Moyr Ahaya]

"A bit of recon never hurts, even if we follow through right after." Moyr looked at Zeno. "Lord Zeno and I have a good operational understanding how to conduct things like this."

[Zeno Deathwright]

"We can look into this early tomorrow then?" he suggests.

[Nekoinu]

"Sounds good to me." She tapped her feet on the floor and then smiled. "I am so excited! It's like delving into the tombs of Korriban all over again. But instead of slugs it's cultists!"

[Moyr Ahaya]

"Well, for Zeno it was Death's Shadow, but I get your point, my lord." Moyr smiled faintly, shifting in her place. "Those were enjoyably reckless times."

[Zeno Deathwright]

"Well there was a lot of reckless danger to be had, but Death's Shadow was the most exciting among them. Nothing quite like the rush of facing such a deadly beast."

[Nekoinu]

"Well, I would hope that this cult isn't anything of the sort. But I'm sure we could handle it anyways!"

[Moyr Ahaya]

"This way or another, my lord." Moyr agreed, wondering if there was anything else to the meeting.

[Zeno Deathwright]

It was getting a bit back-patty. "Anything else going on with you other than this discovery?"

[Nekoinu]

Lord Ralnorrei shrugged. "Always looking for a weak Darth to overthrow. But those are kind of hard to come by."

[Zeno Deathwright]

"Yeah, they tend to get that title because they're more capable than most Sith," he says with a nod. "But if you do find one that you are capable of overthrowing, you'll likely have the same problem you do with the resources gained from your former master. They'd likely be sub par and poorly organized. Probably better to solidify and build up your own forces first, so that you can fold whatever you gain into them."

[Moyr Ahaya]

"Don't look at me, I don't know much about overthrowing Darths. Not my league yet." Moyr smirked.

[Nekoinu]

"Yeah, didn't think so. Oh well! Maybe I'll just get promoted to one without decapitating anyone. At least any Sith."

[Zeno Deathwright]

"That's the dream. Getting promotions out of killing enemies of the empire rather than destroying each other. Though some Sith do simply need to die."

[Moyr Ahaya]

Moyr had nothing to add. She was comfortable with being the quiet one now.

[Nekoinu]

"'The dream.' That's one way to put it," Ralnorrei said while chuckling. "But if we're talking about ascension, maybe this will be enough to raise Moyr to Lord!"

[Moyr Ahaya]

"That would be great, but I think I need to power up before that." Moyr smirked, trying to make the conversation stably light-hearted. And so it wen in that direction.
