Athena hopped on to her chair and rested her head on one hand as she watched Anna.<span style="color: #0000ff"> “Oh, okay. They’re really fun to play with. Do you think I can visit Ras’ house soon? Not today but one day soon?”</span><br/><br/><span style="color: #ff0000">“You’re going to upset yourself overthinking a nonissue. But if you would feel comfortable contemplating then I won’t force the issue.” </span>She shook her head and returned to her seat.<span style="color: #ff0000"> “By my most accurate estimates Ibara will not be saved by Ras. She will tell him he cured her and when he lets his guard down she will kill herself. But he is the son of Chaos so anything is possible. Do not underestimate me and what I can do, Jasmine, I will drag this world into the future kicking and screaming if I must. The more individual plots of land to buy the better, I can create my own council and use that to gain the rest of the territory.”</span>Nalo looked over at Jasmine and rolled her eyes.<span style="color: #b30000">“Oh shut up, she dragged me here against my will. I don’t want to be in this city any more than you want to see me.”</span><span style="color: #ff0000">“I’m thinking you’re going to cooperate because you’re the smartest of your sisters and you understand that even I cannot squeeze blood from stone. This city is doomed to fail and without building relations with other regions even I can’t save this place. I would take great pleasure in slaughtering Nalo and her offspring but I can’t do that so I’m going to use her as a stepping stone to lay the foundation of this city. Darnassus will support us fully understanding that they can’t rely on us to do the same. At least not yet.”</span>Nalo sighed angrily and tapped her temple.<span style="color: #b30000">“The Night Elves are going to need Animus’ help soon too, with Elune gone things are going to go tits up for me.”</span><div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
