[ 2015.01.02 01:18:33 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote enters the Grape. Instead of the business attire normally worn since departing ways with PIE Inc. he's wearing grey and black Amarrian robes with the hood pulled low over his face.
[ 2015.01.02 01:19:56 ] Thal Vadam > /emote enters thr grape dressed in his Templar robes and takes a seat at the bar
[ 2015.01.02 01:20:08 ] Daemun Khanid > *He's occumpanied by a Sebeistor woman Melena Korvin, who walks closely enough that the two intermittantly brush elbows.
[ 2015.01.02 01:21:42 ] Daemun Khanid > * Unaware of Vadam's presence Daemun and the woman make their way to a nearby table close to the exit.
[ 2015.01.02 01:23:35 ] Daemun Khanid > * The woman attracts the attention of a passing waiter and places an order for two cups of hot tea.
[ 2015.01.02 01:26:23 ] Thal Vadam > /emote places an order for an iced tea and turns his attention to the robed man "Ave sir"
[ 2015.01.02 01:27:14 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote recognizes the voice and raises a hand gesturing for the man to join him at his table.
[ 2015.01.02 01:28:32 ] Thal Vadam > /emote grabs his drink and walks over to the man "Aye friend, how can i help you?"
[ 2015.01.02 01:29:54 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote looks up at Thal and pulls back his hood revealing 2 white ceramic orbs where blue grey eyes used to be.
[ 2015.01.02 01:30:17 ] Daemun Khanid > "Greetings Vadam, I know I recognize the voice"
[ 2015.01.02 01:30:36 ] Thal Vadam > /emote raises an eyebrow "Daemun...what happened to you?"
[ 2015.01.02 01:30:59 ] Daemun Khanid > (more appropriately "looks towards")
[ 2015.01.02 01:31:49 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote sensing from the location of his voice that he's still standing gestures for Thal to have a seat.
[ 2015.01.02 01:32:54 ] Daemun Khanid > "You might say things have changed in recent weeks. Particularly my perspective"
[ 2015.01.02 01:33:33 ] Thal Vadam > /emote sits down "enlighten me"
[ 2015.01.02 01:36:00 ] Daemun Khanid > "You know me as well as anyone Vadam, since I learned the details of my families murders I've been looking for answers"
[ 2015.01.02 01:36:46 ] Daemun Khanid > "I've found them"
[ 2015.01.02 01:37:04 ] Thal Vadam > "Oh?"
[ 2015.01.02 01:37:50 ] Daemun Khanid > "I've been a fool, a disgrace to the Empire. Drowning in my own doubts, anger and liquor."
[ 2015.01.02 01:39:00 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote gestures to the woman at his side
[ 2015.01.02 01:39:44 ] Thal Vadam > /emote nods slowly and sips his drink "I see"
[ 2015.01.02 01:40:15 ] Daemun Khanid > "Where are my manners, this is Melena Korvin. A promising young Sebiestor. She helps ensure I don't fall on my face when out of pod and make an even bigger fool of myself"
[ 2015.01.02 01:40:56 ] Daemun Khanid > "In return she hopes someday to earn the acceptance of our God"
[ 2015.01.02 01:42:03 ] Daemun Khanid > "As I was saying, I have been a fool."
[ 2015.01.02 01:42:35 ] Daemun Khanid > "In my anger I've looked in every corner of New Eden for someone to blame."
[ 2015.01.02 01:43:33 ] Daemun Khanid > "Looked to change the Empire itself to quench my desire for some sort of closure"
[ 2015.01.02 01:44:14 ] Daemun Khanid > "I found the answer to my problems staring back at me from the bottom of an empty glass of scotch"
[ 2015.01.02 01:44:47 ] Daemun Khanid > "My suffering wasnt the fault of the Empire"
[ 2015.01.02 01:45:54 ] Daemun Khanid > "I was suffering beause I lost my way, I was failing to see to God's work and will. The offices of PIE had become too stuffy. Too passive and too political"
[ 2015.01.02 01:47:20 ] Daemun Khanid > "Departing that organization was the right thing to do, where I went from there was not"
[ 2015.01.02 01:47:27 ] Karmilla Strife > I know the feeling.
[ 2015.01.02 01:48:03 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote looks up, still unaccustomed to blindness, wondering where the voice came from.
[ 2015.01.02 01:48:55 ] Karmilla Strife > /emote notices Daemun's alarm. "I'm a former praetorian myself. Sorry to interrupt."
[ 2015.01.02 01:49:14 ] Thal Vadam > /emote sips his drink "Well, glad to see you have a less self harmful view"
[ 2015.01.02 01:49:55 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote nods in the direction of the womans voice and turns back towards Thal
[ 2015.01.02 01:52:31 ] Daemun Khanid > "Well details aside, I returned to God's calling. My eye's I had removed. I have no requirement of them when piloting from within a capsule. From without they serve only to distract my mind, to distract me from my purpose"
[ 2015.01.02 01:53:02 ] Thal Vadam > /emote raises an eyebrow "...I see"
[ 2015.01.02 01:53:05 ] Karmilla Strife > That's horrible.
[ 2015.01.02 01:53:20 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote smirks
[ 2015.01.02 01:53:30 ] Daemun Khanid > "and I do not..."
[ 2015.01.02 01:53:37 ] Karmilla Strife > Where has this need for self harm suddenly sprung forth from?
[ 2015.01.02 01:53:45 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > Vincentus Azizora polishes the bar. His face looks incredibly moved by what he is hearing.
[ 2015.01.02 01:54:07 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote looks up and back towards the unkown voice
[ 2015.01.02 01:54:13 ] Daemun Khanid > "Self harm?"
[ 2015.01.02 01:54:21 ] Karmilla Strife > Anyone who harms themself lessens their ability to serve the Empire and God.
[ 2015.01.02 01:54:28 ] Daemun Khanid > "It is self perfection, not harm"
[ 2015.01.02 01:54:44 ] Karmilla Strife > You are deluded.
[ 2015.01.02 01:54:52 ] Karmilla Strife > God gave you eyes
[ 2015.01.02 01:55:03 ] Karmilla Strife > you do not have the right to take them away.
[ 2015.01.02 01:55:47 ] Daemun Khanid > "He did indeed and for them I am gratefull, but I serve God and Empire as a capsuleer and in that role they serve only as a distraction."
[ 2015.01.02 01:55:51 ] Thal Vadam > "I'd have to concur with the woman"
[ 2015.01.02 01:56:03 ] Daemun Khanid > "A failure of my own moral imperfection"
[ 2015.01.02 01:56:21 ] Karmilla Strife > Then learn from your imperfection without harming yourself.
[ 2015.01.02 01:57:10 ] Daemun Khanid > "Would you adivse an alcoholic to frequent bars? A drug addict to take daily strolls of the lower levels?"
[ 2015.01.02 01:57:47 ] Karmilla Strife > I've done some bad stuff. I was even sent to the cleansing pits for quite a while. There is a distinction between purification and self harm. It's ok to feel bad about something you've done wrong. That's called contrition.
[ 2015.01.02 01:58:16 ] Karmilla Strife > Self destruction is disgusting, cowardly, and wrong.
[ 2015.01.02 01:58:21 ] Daemun Khanid > "In time I will regather my moral fortitude. Regain control over base impulses. As a capsuleer I can of course have the eye's returned when that time comes"
[ 2015.01.02 01:58:44 ] Karmilla Strife > And what if your eyes are needed to defend the Empire in the meantime?
[ 2015.01.02 01:58:47 ] Daemun Khanid > "Until then God's will cannot wait. It must be done"
[ 2015.01.02 01:59:28 ] Daemun Khanid > "I defend the empire from within my capsule, piloting a ship of immense power. My eye's have no use there"
[ 2015.01.02 02:00:17 ] Karmilla Strife > I'm a capsuleer. I don't need my eyes to fly. But, I have defended a fellow Amarrian's life in this very room. I, and my eyes, noticed something odd and brought notice upon it to the local security forces.
[ 2015.01.02 02:00:40 ] Karmilla Strife > If I had blinded myself, that person very likely would have been harmed.
[ 2015.01.02 02:01:00 ] Karmilla Strife > Your service does not end when you exit the pod.
[ 2015.01.02 02:01:26 ] Daemun Khanid > "And by your own words, there are local security forces for that purpose. Mine, nay ours is or should be a higher calling than preventing the loss of a single clone"
[ 2015.01.02 02:02:22 ] Daemun Khanid > "With the sharpened mental acuity I experience without visual distraction I may save the lives of tens of thousands"
[ 2015.01.02 02:02:24 ] Karmilla Strife > I never said I saved a clone.
[ 2015.01.02 02:02:41 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote waves a hand dismissively
[ 2015.01.02 02:02:55 ] Daemun Khanid > "Irrelevant"
[ 2015.01.02 02:03:08 ] Karmilla Strife > I suggest, should you have the choice in the future, simply close your eyes.
[ 2015.01.02 02:03:40 ] Karmilla Strife > If you are truly contrite, willfull blindness is more sincere than enforced blindness.
[ 2015.01.02 02:05:38 ] Daemun Khanid > "is it not will when I enforce it upon myself? It is irrelevant in any case, a mere inconvenience for the purpose of better fullfulling God's will"
[ 2015.01.02 02:06:53 ] Karmilla Strife > /emote throws her hands up in defeat. "Suit yourself. If you feel it helps you serve God and Empire better, so be it. I'll not argue any further."
[ 2015.01.02 02:07:14 ] Thal Vadam > /emote sips his drink quietly
[ 2015.01.02 02:07:56 ] Daemun Khanid > * A data pad alarm activates and Daemun's slave/assistant pulls out the device and reads the message. She then leans over and speaks into his ear, relaying the message"
[ 2015.01.02 02:09:00 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote begins to stand
[ 2015.01.02 02:10:29 ] Daemun Khanid > " I appologize for a hasty departure Mr. Vadam, unfortunately duty calls. I will attempt to communicate further details about recent event's to you at a later time and place"
[ 2015.01.02 02:11:10 ] Thal Vadam > /emote nods to himself "Go with God Daemun"
[ 2015.01.02 02:11:42 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote pulls out a small engraved card and drops it onto the table, it is a corporate contact card reading Sanctus Imperialis.
[ 2015.01.02 02:12:06 ] Daemun Khanid > "I shall endeavor to do so friend"
[ 2015.01.02 02:12:58 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote turns towards the previous location of the unknown female voice and bows slightly before leaving the Grape, guided closely by his assistant.
[ 2015.01.02 02:15:03 ] Thal Vadam > /emote takes the card and exits
[ 2015.01.02 02:21:04 ] Karmilla Strife > So much for a peaceful drink tonight...
[ 2015.01.02 02:21:12 ] Karmilla Strife > /emote gets up and leaves

[ 2015.01.04 01:24:18 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote walks into the Grape looking solemn and finds a seat at the bar. He orders a cup of tea.
[ 2015.01.04 01:24:26 ] Thal Vadam > /emote enters the grape dressed in his robes. He smiles and nods at Luna and takes a seat at the bar
[ 2015.01.04 01:25:45 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote smiles at Thal. She glances at Reginald with a puzzled look.
[ 2015.01.04 01:27:04 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote nods at Thal as he takes a seat, but says nothing.
[ 2015.01.04 01:30:37 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote thanks the bartender for the tea, then takes a sip.
[ 2015.01.04 01:31:33 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote rubs the bridg eof her nose as she reads the galnet newsfeeds. "Oh bother, i should have just stayed in the Basilica and not come out" she mutters.
[ 2015.01.04 01:32:45 ] Reginald Sakakibara > /emote turns, noticing Luna for the first time, "Good evening, Lady Aspenstar."
[ 2015.01.04 01:33:36 ] Alexa de'Crux > /emote does not look entirely happy to see Regi, but holds her tongue.

[ 2015.01.04 01:37:48 ] Reginald Sakakibara > "It's quite already, my lady." He stands up eyeing Alexa with displeasure, "I was just leaving. Good evening." He exits the Grape.
[ 2015.01.04 01:38:26 ] Thal Vadam > /emote raises an eyebrow at Alexa and sighs
[ 2015.01.04 01:38:38 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote murmers have a good evening. She then gives Alexa a look.
[ 2015.01.04 01:39:04 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Have a seat Ms. de'Crux, I think we're over due for a chat." *she says wryly*
[ 2015.01.04 01:39:06 ] Alexa de'Crux > /emote stands impassively. "It is a complicated situation, ma'am."
[ 2015.01.04 01:39:11 ] Alexa de'Crux > /emote sits down.
[ 2015.01.04 01:39:40 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > Was Lord Sakakibara displeased with your decision to render aid the other night?
[ 2015.01.04 01:39:54 ] Daemun Khanid > Is just entering the Grape as Sakakibara makes his exit and bumps him slightly as he passes. Khanid doesn't seem to notice but his assistant Melena glances at him with slight annoyance.
[ 2015.01.04 01:40:11 ] Alexa de'Crux > No, ma'am. It is....a separate issue.
[ 2015.01.04 01:40:39 ] Alexa de'Crux > If you wish, ma'am, I will attempt to explain.
[ 2015.01.04 01:40:48 ] Thal Vadam > /emote looks to the door "Hello Deamun"
[ 2015.01.04 01:40:55 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote rubs the bridge of her nose. Then she leans back in her chair. "Well.. if you can discuss it here, why don't you indeed explain what happened aftter you comm'ed me in the middle of the night."
[ 2015.01.04 01:41:52 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote raises his head in recognition of Thal's voice and moves in it's direction with his hand extended.
[ 2015.01.04 01:42:06 ] Alexa de'Crux > After we secured the area, we extracted, in the company of Lady Sakakibara. For the record, she came of her own will.
[ 2015.01.04 01:42:30 ] Thal Vadam > "How are you tonight my friend?"
[ 2015.01.04 01:42:37 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > What did you need to secure the area from?
[ 2015.01.04 01:43:09 ] Daemun Khanid > "Quite well considering, and you brother Vadam?
[ 2015.01.04 01:43:47 ] Alexa de'Crux > I was told that Rebecca, the infant under Naomi's guardianship, was in danger. We secured the manor, and checked the rooms, ending at the door to the Sakakibara manor's panic room.
[ 2015.01.04 01:43:47 ] Thal Vadam > "The same. Join me for tea?"

[ 2015.01.04 01:46:37 ] Alexa de'Crux > Naomi then retired to my quarters to rest.
[ 2015.01.04 01:46:59 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Your quarters?" she asks sharply?
[ 2015.01.04 01:47:13 ] Alexa de'Crux > Several days later, we invited the Sakakibara family to dinner, in hopes of resolving various issues amicably.
[ 2015.01.04 01:47:17 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > While the emergency is one thing.. I did ask that you avoid contact with her...
[ 2015.01.04 01:47:27 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > Oh, excuse, me. I ordered.
[ 2015.01.04 01:47:34 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote looks fixedly at Alexa.

[ 2015.01.04 01:48:37 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > mMm. And she spent several days with you in your quarters?

[ 2015.01.04 01:48:48 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > Meh. Go on.
[ 2015.01.04 01:48:54 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote looks displeased but is listening.
[ 2015.01.04 01:49:11 ] Alexa de'Crux > With respect, when I say 'my quarters', I refer to a bunk that I keep at my safehouse.
[ 2015.01.04 01:50:01 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote stiffens slightly but does not ask the follow up question that pops into her head. "mMm. How did this dinner meeting going?"
[ 2015.01.04 01:50:02 ] Daemun Khanid > "Things are coming together quickly and smoothly. I consider it a sign that I am indeed back on the path intended for me"
[ 2015.01.04 01:50:46 ] Alexa de'Crux > During the dinner, tempers flared, Naomi expressed her...displeasure that her family only seemed to view her as a nuisance, and.....then confessed that the actions of the previous several weeks had been engineered to destablize the family, and return&gt...
[ 2015.01.04 01:50:53 ] Daemun Khanid > "And you Thal? How have your affairs come along since the incident with your brother?"
[ 2015.01.04 01:50:54 ] Thal Vadam > /emote nods "That is good to hear"
[ 2015.01.04 01:51:11 ] Alexa de'Crux > the Holding to her name, as was her deceased father's wish, as expressed in his will.
[ 2015.01.04 01:51:48 ] Thal Vadam > /emote sighs "He has disappeared again, the ball is in his court"
[ 2015.01.04 01:52:28 ] Alexa de'Crux > Shortly after the dinner, I made an appeal to Lady Sakakibara that Naomi be remanded into my custody; I felt that, given the attitude of his Lordship Sakakibara towards his younger sibling, she would not recieve a fair trial.
[ 2015.01.04 01:52:42 ] Daemun Khanid > "I see, that's unfortunate. I'd hoped the matter would have been resolved by now."
[ 2015.01.04 01:53:03 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote frowns slightly, but nods for Alexa to continue.
[ 2015.01.04 01:53:36 ] Reinheart Novan > /emote ordering and taking a glass of red wine and walks to an unoccupied table
[ 2015.01.04 01:54:00 ] Alexa de'Crux > When I recieved the response, we were requested to report to the Estate. I say that specifically: we were requested to report to the Estate. When we arrived, we were not taken to the Sakakibara Estate, but redirected to a police station, where Naomi
[ 2015.01.04 01:54:14 ] Alexa de'Crux > faced summary execution on an unwarranted charge of treason.
[ 2015.01.04 01:54:43 ] Thal Vadam > "It is a game he seems to enjoy, and i am unfortunately forced to play it"
[ 2015.01.04 01:54:50 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote raises an eyebrow. "How is the charge unwarranted? She confessed she tried to destabilize a holding and undermine a sitting Holder."
[ 2015.01.04 01:55:35 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > You have lost all objectivity, Ms. de'Crux.
[ 2015.01.04 01:55:40 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > But do explain.
[ 2015.01.04 01:55:42 ] Alexa de'Crux > Yes, ma'am, but under Imperial law, 'treason' is defined as 'conspiring with, convincing or compelling a foreign nation to invade, attack or overthrow the legitimate government of their host nation.'
[ 2015.01.04 01:55:53 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote nods
[ 2015.01.04 01:55:58 ] Alexa de'Crux > None of which Miss Sakakibara has done.
[ 2015.01.04 01:58:14 ] Daemun Khanid > "My operations have essentially settled down into a modest state of functional efficiency, as such I continue to offer you any assistance I may provide."
[ 2015.01.04 01:58:57 ] Thal Vadam > /emote nods "Thank you Deamun"
[ 2015.01.04 01:59:18 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote Sips his tea, a memory of the taste of scotch briefly flashes though his senses
[ 2015.01.04 01:59:24 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote frowns. "I think we need tocontinue our discussion in a more private place."
[ 2015.01.04 01:59:51 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Shall we resume in Nahyeen at our offices? I have some business to tend to here first."
[ 2015.01.04 02:00:04 ] Alexa de'Crux > Yes, ma'am. I will report immediately.
[ 2015.01.04 02:05:24 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote glances at Daemun and his aid. Not having seen the woman before, and noticing that Daemun seems.. unfocused perhaps;.
[ 2015.01.04 02:06:38 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods "good bye" to Alexa. She sips her wine studying Daemun while he talks with Thal.
[ 2015.01.04 02:06:45 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote raises his head and turns somewhat aimlessly towards the direction of the bar...
[ 2015.01.04 02:07:54 ] Daemun Khanid > "A familiar perfume,"
[ 2015.01.04 02:08:02 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote turns back towards Thal
[ 2015.01.04 02:08:12 ] Daemun Khanid > "Is Lady Aspenstar here as well?"
[ 2015.01.04 02:08:35 ] Thal Vadam > "Few booths away yeah"
[ 2015.01.04 02:09:14 ] Daemun Khanid > "Thing I do have to say for being without normal sight, the other senses do fill the void rather quickly and efficiently"
[ 2015.01.04 02:10:13 ] Thal Vadam > "Indeed"
[ 2015.01.04 02:11:05 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote notices Daemun's somewhat aimless glance. She picks up her glass and carafe and makes her way over to the bar.
[ 2015.01.04 02:11:23 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Hello Lord Khanid..." she says rather tentatively.
[ 2015.01.04 02:11:32 ] Daemun Khanid > Melena Korvin Leans over and says something into Daemuns ear. He simply smiles and nods.
[ 2015.01.04 02:12:52 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote stumbles slightly as he comes to his feet
[ 2015.01.04 02:13:20 ] Daemun Khanid > "Lady Aspenstar, lovely to hear your voice again. It's been too long"
[ 2015.01.04 02:13:47 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote gestures towards where he assumes she will find an empty seat
[ 2015.01.04 02:14:29 ] Thal Vadam > /emote slowly sips his tea
[ 2015.01.04 02:14:45 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote takes a seat, a slightly concerned look on her face. She makes sure she faces him directly with her voice. "Hello.... Umm.... are you alright?"
[ 2015.01.04 02:15:15 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote returns to his seat
[ 2015.01.04 02:15:57 ] Daemun Khanid > "Yes of course, a slight penitence is all"
[ 2015.01.04 02:16:27 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote rubs his hand over the ceramic orbs where his eyes used to be
[ 2015.01.04 02:16:53 ] Daemun Khanid > "It takes some getting used to but it does narrow ones focus on the things that are truly important"
[ 2015.01.04 02:19:17 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote raises a hand in Melena's direction
[ 2015.01.04 02:19:51 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > A slight penance. Explain?
[ 2015.01.04 02:20:07 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote tilts head slightly "unless it is a private one"
[ 2015.01.04 02:20:35 ] Daemun Khanid > "Lady Aspenstar, Melena Korvin my servant. Melena, this is Lady Lunarisse Aspenstar. No doubt as lovely as ever."
[ 2015.01.04 02:21:02 ] Daemun Khanid > "Private? Not at all. It was after all quite the public humiliation I brought upone myself"
[ 2015.01.04 02:22:10 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote's lips quirk slightly "I suppose you have discarded that ridiculous philosophy you were pushing?"
[ 2015.01.04 02:22:30 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote laughs lightly
[ 2015.01.04 02:22:35 ] Daemun Khanid > "I have indeed"
[ 2015.01.04 02:23:08 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Well... it is good that you have seen the light."
[ 2015.01.04 02:23:20 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote blushes "Ermm.. sorry, I didn't mean it like that.."
[ 2015.01.04 02:23:26 ] Thal Vadam > /emote frowns and sips his tea
[ 2015.01.04 02:23:37 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote winces slightly but nods smiling
[ 2015.01.04 02:24:15 ] Daemun Khanid > "I allowed my emotions to get the better of me, to influence my decisions and my ego"
[ 2015.01.04 02:24:41 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote murmers a polite "Hello" to Melena Korvin, then turns her attention back to Daemun "We all have difficult times when our emotions or tempations get the better of us even though we are called to be saints."
[ 2015.01.04 02:24:45 ] Daemun Khanid > I lost sight, both literaly and figuratively of God's purpose for me
[ 2015.01.04 02:25:08 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote nods
[ 2015.01.04 02:25:37 ] Daemun Khanid > "I'm not embarrassed by what transpired over the last few months, it only serves to make me stronger"
[ 2015.01.04 02:26:17 ] Daemun Khanid > "I've come to believe that lost faith, found again can be greater than any virgin faith"
[ 2015.01.04 02:27:15 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote says nods politely. "Perhaps" being mindful of the scripture that may bear on that question "but it is good to know you are back in the fold"
[ 2015.01.04 02:27:32 ] Riesuleah Hadah > /emote arrives in her usual white gown, belt, and boots, handing her sidearm and knives over to the security checkpoint before entering, and then walks in, looking around.
[ 2015.01.04 02:28:32 ] Daemun Khanid > "And I'm honored to have been allowed back, both by my piers and by God"
[ 2015.01.04 02:28:55 ] Azora Malinato > /emote glances around the bar quietly after entering, holding herself in a notably rigid manner, hands clasped behind her back gently
[ 2015.01.04 02:29:44 ] Daemun Khanid > "It's my intention to devote a great deal of my time in service to the Empire and faith, I was hoping that perhaps you could help direct my attentions where they would be most usefull"
[ 2015.01.04 02:30:12 ] Daemun Khanid > "You have a well known record for your service after all"
[ 2015.01.04 02:30:42 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote blushes. After a moment she says "I would be delighted to look into matters appropriate for you to provide service."
[ 2015.01.04 02:31:46 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote smiles and lifts his glass
[ 2015.01.04 02:31:57 ] Daemun Khanid > "Your assistance would be greatly appreciated"
[ 2015.01.04 02:32:36 ] Riesuleah Hadah > /emote looks around, and gives Azora a polite curtsy "Hello there." not wanting to interrupt the conversation
[ 2015.01.04 02:32:40 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Have a Blessed Night both of you. I need to finish up at the markets and head home. I've been gone far too long from Nahyeen"
[ 2015.01.04 02:33:01 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote say that to Thal and Daemun, the slave now being in the background to her.
[ 2015.01.04 02:33:27 ] Thal Vadam > /emote nods "Good evening Luna"
[ 2015.01.04 02:33:33 ] Riesuleah Hadah > /emote curtsies to Lunarisse "Go with God, Ms. Aspenstar"
[ 2015.01.04 02:33:42 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote stands and bows slightly
[ 2015.01.04 02:34:04 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote curtseys and departs.
[ 2015.01.04 02:35:32 ] Thal Vadam > /emote sips his tea
[ 2015.01.04 02:36:52 ] Riesuleah Hadah > /emote curtsies to Daemun as well "Hello there as well."
[ 2015.01.04 02:45:47 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote Turns towards the unfamiliar voice
[ 2015.01.04 02:47:07 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote Bows slightly and returns to his seat, still unfomfortable not being able to see a stranger and somewhat unsure how to respond
[ 2015.01.04 02:47:52 ] Riesuleah Hadah > "I take it God is treating you will this fine day?" She then turns to the bar for a bit, ordering a Thukker whiskey on the rocks. ((if you can do that in a bar @ the Amarr EFA that is))
[ 2015.01.04 02:48:15 ] Thal Vadam > /emote sips his tea and sighs
[ 2015.01.04 02:48:28 ] Charity Black > /emote politely says "The Holy Grape only serves drinks from Greater Amarria."
[ 2015.01.04 02:49:11 ] Riesuleah Hadah > I will have a glass of Khanid red, then, I suppose...
[ 2015.01.04 02:52:16 ] Charity Black > "The tea, or did you mean wine, ma'am?"
[ 2015.01.04 02:52:31 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote turns back to Thal
[ 2015.01.04 02:53:07 ] Riesuleah Hadah > Wine indeed. *She receives it from the bartender after a moment, and turns back to Daemun* I am Dame Riesuleah Hadah, by the way, but you can just call me Riesuleah or Ries if you prefer to dispense with titles.
[ 2015.01.04 02:53:18 ] Daemun Khanid > "My appologies for somewhat excluding you in my conversation with Lady Aspenstar, I'd been meaning to contact her so it was a fortunate encounter"
[ 2015.01.04 02:53:55 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote Turns back towards the new voice, comes to his feet and again bows slighty
[ 2015.01.04 02:54:07 ] Riesuleah Hadah > It is not a problem, I was not intending to interrupt your conversation anyway. *She sips her wine* As to your name, good sir?
[ 2015.01.04 02:54:26 ] Daemun Khanid > "Daemun of Khanid, a pleasure"
[ 2015.01.04 02:54:58 ] Thal Vadam > "It is no problem Deamun"
[ 2015.01.04 02:57:49 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote feels around blindly for his chair, Melena having remained properly quite the entire evening reaches up and descretely guides his hand to the arm rest
[ 2015.01.04 02:58:00 ] Daemun Khanid > *quiet
[ 2015.01.04 02:58:05 ] Thal Vadam > "I'm wondering Daemun, would you do me a favor?" "
[ 2015.01.04 02:58:37 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote settles somewhat uncomfortably into his chair and addresses Thal
[ 2015.01.04 02:58:39 ] Daemun Khanid > Of course
[ 2015.01.04 02:58:53 ] Riesuleah Hadah > /emote looks to a datapad briefly before looking around "It is a pleasure meeting you Daemun...or is there another address you prefer instead?"
[ 2015.01.04 03:00:04 ] Thal Vadam > "Could you keep an ear out for anything that sounds like Awen, it is imperative that i know his move before he makes it"
[ 2015.01.04 03:00:33 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote Turns towards Ries, pondering for a moment how best to respond
[ 2015.01.04 03:01:44 ] Daemun Khanid > "Formally I suppose I would be addressed as Master Khanid, those I have a degree of familiarity with are welcome to address me by my first name. Perhaps in due time you may do so as well"
[ 2015.01.04 03:02:07 ] Riesuleah Hadah > Master Khanid then, it is a pleasure meeting you. The title is curious though, may I ask of its source?
[ 2015.01.04 03:02:15 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote Daemun says with a polite smile
[ 2015.01.04 03:03:58 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote hands Ries a business card for Sanctus Imperialis , Under the corppration name it reads, "Grand Master Daemun of Khanid" apparently an established rank or title within the corp
[ 2015.01.04 03:04:20 ] Riesuleah Hadah > /emote looks at the card curiously "It is not often I hear of such things." before tucking it away
[ 2015.01.04 03:05:03 ] Daemun Khanid > "I am also a minor Holder, I have a small bit of land in Annad. If you would prefer the common title of Lord would be fine as well of course"
[ 2015.01.04 03:05:21 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote turns back towards Vadam
[ 2015.01.04 03:05:35 ] Riesuleah Hadah > /emote smiles "Lord Daemun...?" and gives him an inquisitive look
[ 2015.01.04 03:05:54 ] Daemun Khanid > "Appologies Brother, of course. Everything I have is at your disposal"
[ 2015.01.04 03:06:45 ] Thal Vadam > /emote nods "Thank you brother, how is your organization developing?"
[ 2015.01.04 03:07:57 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote looks back towards Ries,
[ 2015.01.04 03:08:55 ] Daemun Khanid > "Of khanid, emphasis on OF, I make no claims to the family name of the king"
[ 2015.01.04 03:09:17 ] Riesuleah Hadah > Lord Daemun of Khanid, then.
[ 2015.01.04 03:11:00 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote nods politely
[ 2015.01.04 03:11:14 ] Riesuleah Hadah > /emote sips her wine and looks around
[ 2015.01.04 03:12:14 ] Daemun Khanid > turning back towards Thal, "Things have gone rather smoothly so far. My operations in the warzone have succesfully been relocated and changes are currently under way at the family estate"
[ 2015.01.04 03:13:24 ] Daemun Khanid > "I will be seeking new members for the organization soon, Those of faith and will to serve the Empire with full devotion"
[ 2015.01.04 03:14:32 ] Thal Vadam > /emote nods "I wish you luck brother, i hope you may succeed where others have failed"
[ 2015.01.04 03:15:01 ] Riesuleah Hadah > /emote looks at her datapad again "I...should take my leave now. It was a pleasure meeting you, Lord Daemun of Khanid, and go with God."
[ 2015.01.04 03:15:08 ] Riesuleah Hadah > /emote curtsies to Daemun
[ 2015.01.04 03:15:15 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote gives Thal a curious look "Do you imply that things arent going so well within the Empire Brother?"
[ 2015.01.04 03:15:50 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote turns towards Reis's voice and stands again
[ 2015.01.04 03:16:56 ] Daemun Khanid > " A pleasure meeting you Riesuleah, I hope we have a chance to speak further in the not too distant future, I fear I wasn't able to lend you a very devoted ear this evening"
[ 2015.01.04 03:17:19 ] Riesuleah Hadah > It is not a problem; I hope we can speak again soon as well
[ 2015.01.04 03:17:31 ] Riesuleah Hadah > /emote takes another sip from her wine and sets it on the bar before turning to leave.
[ 2015.01.04 03:18:42 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote bows and fumbles for his chair again, this time Melena taking a somewhat more firm hold on his wrist and guiding him down and illiciting a n annoyed expression from khanid
[ 2015.01.04 03:19:20 ] Thal Vadam > /emote says nothing for a moment "...No brother, but there are those who are too apathetic"
[ 2015.01.04 03:19:41 ] Riesuleah Hadah > /emote collects her weapons as she leaves the premises
[ 2015.01.04 03:20:05 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote nods
[ 2015.01.04 03:20:29 ] Daemun Khanid > "A fact that as you know all too well that I agree with"
[ 2015.01.04 03:21:36 ] Daemun Khanid > "Infact that is much my goal with Sanctus, to set aside all apathaty or fear of political repercussions. To go forth with God's will at any cost"
[ 2015.01.04 03:23:49 ] Thal Vadam > /emote nods "Well with that goal you have my full support. Should you ever find yourself in need of a Templar, I am at your call"
[ 2015.01.04 03:23:50 ] Daemun Khanid > "With Saeculari my will to go out and DO something was there, my path however was misguided"
[ 2015.01.04 03:24:15 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote nods and raises his glass of tea
[ 2015.01.04 03:24:44 ] Daemun Khanid > "And I yours Brother, as always. Among all other things that has not changed"
[ 2015.01.04 03:25:33 ] Thal Vadam > /emote raises his tea "For the Empire"
[ 2015.01.04 03:26:54 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote does the same "For the Faith"
[ 2015.01.04 03:31:36 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote leans forward a bit in his chair
[ 2015.01.04 03:32:02 ] Daemun Khanid > "Now that it's somewhat less crowded... What can you tell my about Awen?"
[ 2015.01.04 03:32:36 ] Daemun Khanid > "Any recommendations on where I should focus efforts? New eden is a rather large place."
[ 2015.01.04 03:34:37 ] Thal Vadam > "Last time i saw him was on the ghost, he hacked the hologram projector and appeared that way. I haven't heard from him for weeks, but he is still launching attacks in low-sec"
[ 2015.01.04 03:34:58 ] Thal Vadam > "Amarr low-sec most likely"
[ 2015.01.04 03:37:03 ] Daemun Khanid > "Near the warzone?"
[ 2015.01.04 03:37:43 ] Daemun Khanid > "I imagine such a hack would only be possible within a fairly short range. What system were you in when it occured?
[ 2015.01.04 03:38:11 ] Thal Vadam > /emote nods "Yes, near the warzone"
[ 2015.01.04 03:38:24 ] Thal Vadam > "Myyhera"
[ 2015.01.04 03:41:22 ] Daemun Khanid > /emote removes a tactile data pad from his robes and makes a note of the location
[ 2015.01.04 03:43:14 ] Daemun Khanid > "I operate near there on a regular basis, I'll have extra scouting patrols arranged"
[ 2015.01.04 03:44:43 ] Thal Vadam > /emote nods "Thank you brother, i owe you"
[ 2015.01.04 03:44:57 ] Daemun Khanid > "You owe me nothing"
[ 2015.01.04 03:47:10 ] Daemun Khanid > "You held faith in me when I was at my lowest, when other were screaming of Heresy. At some level I'm certain that provided an anchor for my will and a debt I will never be able to fully repay"
[ 2015.01.04 04:55:08 ] Alexander Lovell > /emote enters the grape wearing a heavy green cloak with black fur trim over his usual armor, sits at the nearest table
