Koto stepped out of the interrigation room and sighed when Lily asked him what he had learned.<br/>"Unfortunately he knows nothing other than that his benifactor was supposedly 'loaded'... You can let him go, Dax may be a sneaky son of a bitch, but he is honest and loyal to his employers... To a point..."<br/>Koto turned once more to her before he walked away, "See if you can set him up with a room for now. I want it monitored though, closely..."<br/><br/>Her father's expression was grim as Lai explained what had happened.<br/>"We must tread lightly then. Whoever this assaillant is, he has strong ties with the Necronians if he could order a strike on our planet... Go to your ship, and Lai... While I dissaprove of you chosing such a lesser creature to be your mate, I can see that he has resolve to understand and overcome his shortcomings. Therefore, I will allow your relation to continue... Trying to convince the council to accept your union however will be another thing entirely..."<br/><br/><br/>The hologram of the Necronian warlord stood silently before Davian as he finished the last of his wine before placing the glass on his newly fabricated table.<br/>"Your battle did not end well I see oh great and powerful master of the forge..." His words were tinged with condecendance, though the Necronian stood motionless, its featurless gaze transfixed on Davian as he stood from his seat.<br/>"The plan was that I would call the strike when the time was right, the start of this fighting came rather pre-maturely. You do realize this could cost you the war."<br/>suddenly, the Master of the Forge made a sound that chilled Davian to his very core.<br/>It began to laugh, a cold, eerie, mettalic chuckle that plagued his mind with thoughts of death.<br/>"I have not laughed like that in over a millenia... Only a fool would think that this war is over just because of a single loss... The scouring of a galaxy may reap many results both fortunate and unfortunate. We take a planet only when fortune favours us to send enough of our fleet to conquer it. This battle was only to test the waters, and as you can see..."<br/>A projection of the fight on the dragonian homeworld beamed from the palm of the Necronians hand, showing visions of the death and destruction his army had wreaked on the planet.<br/>"To be caught unprepared is a dangerous thing, it leaves the mortal mind vulnerable to fear when it knows of its own impending doom, thus it becomes more vulnerable the longer it assumes we shall strike again... we may have lost the battle, but their minds are now under seige, wondering when we shall be back to finish the job... While I am infuriated that the two insects managed to fend off my warriors, I have no doubt that your plan will succeed, so carry on Davian, drink your wine and be merry, for your life is but a fleeting moment in my eyes..."<br/>The transmission ended as Davian sat there with his hands folded, staring at the empty glass.
