Re: Part 66d - Plan. Consider. Reconsider.
More laughter, bright and delighted. Spirits help her, but she loves them all, though in very different ways; one finds a love in life, and one can also find a sibling, older or younger. Aaron, Dorian, James, Jonnee...could there be four more different men, yet all splendid in their own fashion?
Her lips twitch at his use of the tricky word, but Cyan has put the name behind her - it is only a title, nothing more. "I well congratulate you on your new posting, Jonnee Kay - they could not have found a finer man for the work with the Britizzi." One eyebrow quirks. "I suspect they run you ragged, 'slow' as you are."
New weapons from Charyk, a welcome addition. Britizzi with those armaments would be a deadly force against Archons, mobility combining with ranged attacks capable of damaging and killing the enemy. And a threat in close, for all that it would take many of the insectoids to defeat one archon. "A pity you cannot persuade your quicker troops to use the weaponry..." Cyan shrugs, discarding the thought. "Well. To each their own, yes?"
"These Shaivur, Jonnee - how do they appear? I have other allies in mind, indeed - Prime's Soldiers, who I have mentioned to you in the past, are deadly warriors, even against Archons. They would be welcome...though difficult to control. More of a point and shoot army," she muses, then shakes her head. "Also, there is another matter. In all of your travels, with the people you have visited, have you heard aught of a different form of Archon? One of a ring forged of ice, rather than flame?"
Something glitters in her sapphire eyes. "Have you heard of the scenathi, Jonnee Kay? Listen well, for I have a story for you, of how we might win this war...."
