Session Ident: #nowalkinagarden
03[20:35] * Now talking in #nowalkinagarden
03[20:36] * Silence sets mode: +o Brightstar
03[20:37] * Ackermann (chatzilla@sorcery-lu4.g4v.52.70.IP) has joined #nowalkinagarden
03[20:37] * Silence sets mode: +o Ackermann
[20:39] <@Haile> I had the impression ackermann was plunging into a trap when the last ep cut to credits
01[20:39] <@Brightstar> the recon mission is going to take out some of the trap
01[20:39] <@Brightstar> or at least the obvious parts of it
[20:39] <@Haile> just trying to situate myself
06[20:40] * @Haile sips OJ
01[20:40] <@Brightstar> I think the main force is still on its way
03[20:40] * gg (Nowhere@sorcery-be9q8q.res.rr.com) has joined #nowalkinagarden
[20:42] <@Silence> Anyway the combined forces of the Allies against the Ur-Real wait in the isolated system, away from the star way terminus which leads into Ur-Real space, a blocking force of local knights and rifter self defense force handling that duty
[20:42] <@Silence> as they wait for the recon mission to take place
[20:43] <@Silence> when a high speed courier flying the imperial navy flag bursts into the system from the rear lines
06[20:43] * @Brightstar is reviewing reports while sipping wine
[20:43] <@Silence> onboard is a Admiral Haile who has a important message
[20:43] <@Silence> as well a diplomatic bag by the Jardin ambassadorship
[20:43] <@Silence> for Admiral Ackerman
03[20:43] * Silence sets mode: +o gg
06[20:43] * @Haile hails the fleets
03[20:44] * Ariana- (nnscript@sorcery-tkcva6.fios.verizon.net) has joined #nowalkinagarden
01[20:44] <@Brightstar> "Admiral al-Mihran came all the way out here?"
06[20:44] * @Brightstar takes the hail
[20:44] <@Haile> "She did."
01[20:45] <@Brightstar> "Admiral, I'm surprised you're here. Came for a chance at glory?"
[20:45] <@Haile> "Just delivering some messages. The Empress wanted my evaluation of the situation."
01[20:45] <@Brightstar> "Ah well, you're welcome to board the Vidar."
[20:45] <@Haile> "Is Admiral Ackermann available?"
06[20:46] * @Haile flies in
01[20:46] <@Brightstar> "She should be aboard her flag."
[20:46] <@Haile> "I have a message bag for her from the Jardin embassy."
[20:47] <@Haile> "There have been some political events."
[20:47] <@Silence> there had been rumors of trouble back in Haven
[20:47] <@Silence> but nothing substinated with the strict info controls due to the war and the imperial policy
[20:47] <@Haile> "We should meet face-to-face. Where is the designated location?"
01[20:47] <@Brightstar> "Oh?"
[20:48] <@Haile> is the vidar the one I got blown up over Luxor?
01[20:48] <@Brightstar> yeah they rebuilt it
01[20:48] <@Brightstar> better than it was before
01[20:48] <@Brightstar> better, stronger, blinger
06[20:49] * @Haile shuttles over to the Vidar
[20:49] <@Haile> "I'm surprised you let me set foot on her, Brightstar."
03[20:49] * Holle is now known as Carmine
01[20:49] <@Brightstar> "It wasn't your fault."
[20:50] <@Silence> are you calling Ackermann over as well?
[20:50] <@Silence> to the Vidar?
[20:50] <@Haile> Is it the place where we do multiparty meetings?
01[20:50] <@Brightstar> "Years ago I lost my first command. I let eat away at myself for far too long before I made peace with what happened."
[20:50] <@Haile> I guess I am
06[20:50] * @Brightstar contacts Ackerman and asks her to join him for a conference on the Vidar
[20:50] <@Haile> I assume there's a designated ground
06[20:50] * @Ackermann has an aide signal that she accepts the invitation.
06[20:50] * @Haile nods
01[20:51] <@Brightstar> "What do you know?"
[20:51] <@Haile> "There's been three significant political events in Jardin, a month ago."
[20:52] <@Haile> hmm
[20:52] <@Haile> what's the name for the people who tried the coup?
[20:52] <@Haile> how are they referred to in broadcasts and articles
01[20:54] <@Brightstar> IC I'm not sure
[20:54] <@Haile> Carmine?
[20:54] <@Haile> (I'm actually not sure what their angle is. radical anti-imperials?)
01[20:54] <@Brightstar> (well OOC we know its Guilter)
[20:55] <@Haile> yeah but I mean
[20:55] <@Haile> what is the political group doing it
[20:55] <@Haile> what's their stance
[20:55] <@Silence> uhm had several
[20:55] <@Silence> go with Restorers of Democracy
[20:55] <@Haile> presumably they had a justification for trying to arrest Des
[20:57] <@Haile> What's their stated grievance?
[20:57] <@Silence> high up corruption and a patsy of the empire
[20:57] <@Haile> ok
06[20:57] * @Brightstar leans back in his chair and steeples his fingers as he listens
[20:57] <@Silence> and they were going to launch a coup themselves to overthrow the republic
[20:57] <@Haile> "The first is an attempted coup by an Ultra group calling themselves the 'Restorers of Democracy'."
[20:57] <@Haile> "It failed and their forces have been pushed to the border."
[20:58] <@Silence> Nussbaum who came along with Ackerman yawns on her lap as Haile talks
[20:58] <@Haile> aha ackermann has arrived
[20:58] <@Haile> "The second is a successful coup by our old friend Montfort, in reaction to the first coup. He has suspended the constitution and formed a special committee, ostensibly for the duration of the current crisi."
[20:58] <@Haile> s
06[20:59] * @Haile plays a clip of montfort's speech
[20:59] <@Haile> "The third is a declared secession by the LaVie Corporation."
06[20:59] * @Brightstar offers Ackerman a glass of wine as Montford speaks
01[20:59] <@Brightstar> "Oh my."
06[20:59] * @Haile shows a map of the territory of the Restorers, the Haven government, and the LaVie.
06[21:00] * @Haile watches Ackermann's reaction to the news
06[21:00] * @Ackermann taps her forehead.
[21:02] <@Ackermann> "I suppose Guilter won't be satisfied until he's burned at least three countries to the ground."
[21:02] <@Ackermann> "The Empire and current projects in the League being unsatisfactory."
01[21:02] <@Brightstar> "Do you believe he's behind all this?"
01[21:06] <@Brightstar> "That's a rather serious charge, even if I find merit in it."
[21:07] <@Ackermann> "Oh, of course he didn't plan this himself."
[21:07] <@Ackermann> "But he knows who he is, his reputation, his legend."
[21:08] <@Ackermann> "And he knew what people would do when he made his intentions known."
[21:09] <@Haile> "You don't think he could have had a direct hand?"
[21:10] <@Ackermann> "I'm sure he's on-board with whatever the Guiltlerists are doing, but he has no direct involvement."
06[21:10] * @Ackermann sips the wine given to her and pets Nussbaum. "Although who knows."
[21:11] <@Ackermann> "He might have come back a changed man."
01[21:11] <@Brightstar> "Best to keep one's hands as clean as possible in case things go tits up. As they have... It also allows him to still play peacemaker should things continue to spiral."
[21:12] <@Haile> "The Jardin embassy wanted me to deliver you this."
06[21:12] * @Haile waves an aide forward with the diplomatic bag
[21:12] <@Silence> the diplomatic bag is open, and Ackerman reads the letter from Haven
06[21:20] * @Brightstar makes a mental note to ask Haile about the most recent estimates of Jardin forces on the Red-Blue Line
06[21:20] * @Haile has already prepared a stack of report
[21:20] <@Haile> s
[21:21] <@Ackermann> "Hmm."
01[21:22] <@Brightstar> "I hope there's no further ill news in that letter."
[21:26] <@Silence> offically speaking the Empire is concerned about the rebels on its borders
[21:26] <@Silence> but has no interest in dealing with internal Jardin affairs
[21:34] <@Ackermann> "In any case, thank you for passing the information on."
[21:35] <@Silence> also in other news, when they return to the back Luxor, the ceremony where the children of Hiroshi will be offically inducted into the Imperial Family will take place, the Empress has given the go ahead, and rumors are she might make both of them Imperial Heirs on all the legal documents
06[21:37] * @Brightstar raises an eyebrow
01[21:38] <@Brightstar> "Admiral Ackerman, pardon my bluntness but given the situation we are in what are your intentions?"
[21:39] <@Ackermann> "Oh, I don't know. Win the battles here, keep enough of my fleet numbers intact that I can cross the Rubicon and restore democracy if all else fails, I suppose?"
[21:40] <@Ackermann> "I'm not that sophisticated of a politician."
06[21:41] * @Brightstar chuckles
01[21:41] <@Brightstar> "I thought for a moment I would have to break out an A-class speech to keep you here and help the Queen Dowger."
01[21:41] <@Brightstar> ":)"
01[21:44] <@Brightstar> "I will ensure that the Empire can provide whatever discert support we can to ensure a stable Jardin. At the very least your fleet will be able to trainsit back to border under my personal protection."
[21:45] <@Haile> sorry, had to go to something
[21:45] <@Silence> roll wits Haile
[21:45] <@Haile> d6
[21:45] <@Silence> Haile realises something
[21:45] <@Silence> its the first time in a long time in a public meeting that Brighstar didn't have that tick of a Al-Garmont's bastard around him
[21:46] <@Haile> who's that
[21:46] <Ariana-> Mazyila
[21:46] <@Haile> aha
06[21:46] * @Haile goes to talk to Brightstar
06[21:47] * @Haile has a message for Ravi too, but she's not available
06[21:48] * @Brightstar takes another sip of wine as he looks at the report and mumbles "I never thought he had it in him..."
01[21:49] <@Brightstar> (so is Ackerman still there or is it Halie and Billstar?)
[21:49] <@Silence> I assume that Haile took Brighstar to a corner
[21:50] <@Silence> while Ackerman looks over things and plots I guess
[21:50] <@Haile> what do I actually know about mayzila?
[21:50] <@Haile> "I notice your recent aide isn't here like usual."
[21:50] <@Silence> You know she supposedly like you or Miz, an expriment from the Labs
[21:51] <@Silence> the biological bastard daughter of Del Moya
[21:51] <@Haile> aha
[21:51] <@Silence> you only know this because Al-Garmont told you
01[21:51] <@Brightstar> "Al-Garmont and Del Moya had a kid. Del Moya kept it a secert."
[21:51] <@Silence> you never saw her before, supposedly kept at a lab far away
[21:51] <@Haile> I see
01[21:52] <@Brightstar> "Did God's know what to her."
[21:52] <@Haile> "She's been with you recently."
01[21:52] <@Brightstar> (does Brightstar know she ran off?)
[21:52] <@Haile> "Taken her in?"
01[21:53] <@Brightstar> "Al-Garmont and Ferril dumped her on me. Figure I show her the ropes."
[21:53] <@Silence> no he doesn't
[21:53] <@Carmine> Teenagers!
[21:53] <@Haile> "Del Moya..."
[21:53] <@Silence> her current status is listed as intergration inspection with auxilarlly forces
[21:54] <@Haile> "Well, I see she's skipped this one."
[21:54] <@Haile> "Maybe we should talk sometime."
01[21:54] <@Brightstar> "Well at this level I rather keep the number people in the loop small. Keeps people from getting... Ideas."
[21:54] <@Haile> "Wise."
[21:55] <@Haile> (I gotta go to bed)
[21:55] <@Silence> well talk later then
[21:55] <@Silence> go as long as you can :p
01[21:55] <@Brightstar> "This is a bad situation, the blood is in the water... Much like it was after we kicked the Jardin off Luxor."
[21:55] <@Silence> or your gone then I guess we're done here
[21:55] <@Haile> "In any case, when the Queen returns from [place she had to leave for] give her my message about the imperial heirs."
01[21:56] <@Brightstar> "I will Admiral."
[21:56] <@Haile> "There's also some key reports and operational outlines in my encrypted packet."
[21:57] <@Haile> "I must return to my ship and review what my men have gathered about the situation here."
01[21:57] <@Brightstar> "Excellent."
[21:57] <@Haile> "Minister, Admiral, good hunting."
06[21:58] * @Haile heads off smartly
[21:59] <@Haile> thanks sil
06[22:04] * @Brightstar wonders were exactly his new aide ran off too
