Commandant, your apology is appreciated but unnecessary. I have some awareness of your current plight, and I hope to be of assistance to you and your people. I seek an audience with your Emperor."

(rolled face man! for Vassarious in lieu of savior faire, rolled an 11)


Commandant Senatrus, for that is his name, looks shocked. "An audience with the Emperor, oh Radiant One? I'm... not sure that will be possible. You do know about our Emperor's most peculiar schedule and habits? Would a appointment with the Imperial Governor suffice? He handles the year to year matters of the Empire."


"Also, if I am to request an audience for your Radiance with the Imperial Governor, or perhaps the Emperor, what sort of aid are you offering? And what is the payment. Is this perhaps in accordance with the ancient compact between your master and mine?"

Uh-oh... 80 posts before 1 DP refills, right? This one was unprompted so I don't know if it's fatal or not, but would spend the point if it is.

Does fatal mean "completely blow my cover" or does it mean "someone suspects something?"

I'll share my story, and also mention that I did bring some food in case the food here was awful too.

That gets some laughter. someone follows up:


"because we're still in the army, or because we're in Lithus city?!"
That gets even more laughter... apparently the city is not known for having the best food. Or perhaps these are country folk uncomfortable with cosmopolitan food. Or maybe a little of both.

I'll focus on the potential spy; the potential sympathizers can be checked into later and possibly just shunted off to less sensitive tasks (I get that all the tasks are sensitive, but surely some are less sensitive than others).

The recruits are assigned to sort requisition requests coming in from the front under the watchful eye of the Colonel as their first task, and as a training exercise.



Halcyone has posted up next to the suspected spy, who is working along quite dilligently



The Colonel watches Over Halcyone's shoulder, then quietly asks "Have you found anyone yet?"
