Location: SFRIM Offices. Bar. Nahyeen VII, Zoar & Sons Factory<br><br><color=0xffb2b2b2>Setting: The main gathering area of the Society, the bar sports plush leather couches centered around a long coffee table. Low music plays songs from around the galaxy. The soft blue lighting is easy on the eyes, but still light enough to see what you're doing and where you're going. The shelves are filled haphazardly with bottles of spirits, clearly labeled. The whiskeys shelf label has been taped over by Freya and Lucas, each bidding for ownership. There is a shelf with rum on it, with a fresh label reading 'Alexi'. Above that, is Nicoletta's shelf, with juice mixes and exotic wine, with a few bottles of absinthe here and there. Cocktail mixers and a jar of little umbrellas wrapped with a piece of tape reading 'Gottin's Dont Touch!!' is on her shelf. There is a shelf with a pair of bottles, one full of Absynth and the other full of Chocolate Irish Cream and etched "<i>Lady Anise Tig'res of the Khanid Kingdom</i>." A long line of bottles of Quafe are on a shelf with a "DON'T TOUCH!" sign by Rhoxy. Johanes has a shelf with brandies and cognac and a lone bottle of </color><url=showinfo:13067>smurgleblaster.</url><color=0xffb2b2b2> One shelf labeled "Lord Anderson's" has three bottles of brandy from Gallente space, along with other liquors. Another shelf labeled "Lord Tash-Murkon" has a secure black metal container with a biometric lock with a Sapidum Distillery Emblem - 'Sapidum 255' from a Khanid small batch distillery on Oris. Lunarisse's shelf has spiced wine and other vintages from around New Eden, with a few religious texts leaning against the bottles. New to her collection is one tall, elegant bottle with amarrian scrollwork of Cream Liqueur, one tall elegant bottle with amarrian scrollwork of Chocolate Liqueur, one stout, wide bottle with amarrian scroll work of Chocolate sauce with added black tea all wrapped in a secure richly coloured, dark wood box.<br><br>There are a few other shelves that hold overflow for now, waiting for new corp members to claim them.<br><br>
Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote notes that when Aayah Noudiyeh arrives in Nahyeen, after docking she'd be shown to the formal foyer of the Lamp - Gottin's Lamp - and then brought back here to meet with Lunarisse.
Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote takes a seat in her comfy chair and is sipping a cup of hot tea, Holder Grey of course!
Aayah Noudiyeh > /emote is lead in by a staff member or whatnot, dressed as she appears in her profile: a black and red bodysuit with a worn old Khanid Marine jacket on top, stripped of insignia.
Aayah Noudiyeh > /emote noticably resists the urge to stand at attention and salute. "Miss Aspenstar. Hello."
Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote smiles lightly "Hello Aayah. Thank you for coming." She chuckles "relax and please call me Lunarisse in here." She tilts her head slightly "Is that ok?"
Aayah Noudiyeh > /emote nods, and cracks a little smile. "Of course, Lunarisse. Would you like to know a secret?"
Lunarisse Aspenstar > "I confess I am a collector of them" She giggles.
Aayah Noudiyeh > I actually am not a fan of formality. A product of my childhood, I suspect. But it just gets in the way, I think. For the most part.
Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Well.." she jerks her heard towards the outside "appearances do need to maintained out there. But in here we are in a fellowship. I prefer to have one place where we can let our guards down."
Aayah Noudiyeh > /emote winks. "That's why it's a secret." She taps the side of her nose knowingly.
Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote gives an amused smile. "Can I get you a drink?"
Aayah Noudiyeh > /emote nods. "That would be very kind. Wine, if you have any?"
Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods and makes her way behind the bar. She stretches up on her tippy-toes and retrives a wine bottle from her shelf.
Aayah Noudiyeh > /emote holds her hands behind her back in a relaxed posture, watching Lunarisse with a curious expression.
Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote expertly decants the wine bottle. She ducks below the bar to get some glasses.
Aayah Noudiyeh > This is a lovely venue, Lunarisse. Very comfy. By the way.
Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote re-appears from below the bar. She is triumphantly holding two wine glasses but looks flustered. What in New Eden was she doing back there?
Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote pours two glasses of wine. She brushes her hair back after doing so.
Anise Tig'res > /emote makes her way in wearing http://www.siffonz.com/images/formal_dresses/Formal-Long-Heavy-Black-Long-Dress-FDMS0018.jpg
Aayah Noudiyeh > /emote was standing right in front of Luna, on the other side of the bar, when she comes back up. She smiles, a little curiously, and takes her glass of wine, totally not spotting Anise's entrance. Terrible spacial awareness, yikes.
Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote makes her way back fround the bar, carrying the two wine glasses. She sees Anise and murmers "Hello"
Aayah Noudiyeh > /emote glances behind her, does a slightly surprised double-take, and smiles widely at Anise. "Hey you! Wow."
Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote glances back and forth "I take it you two know each other?"
Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote places her glass on the bar, she gives Aayah hers. "Can I get you something Anise?"
Anise Tig'res > /emote makes her way over and nods once with a slight smile. "Yes we know one anouther." Anise ignores the offer, making one of the drinks each person should be famliar with by now.
Aayah Noudiyeh > /emote thanks Luna for her drink, and turns to lean her butt against the bar. She sips her wine, and makes an appreciative noise, then nods. "Yes, Anise and I are friends. I would say so, at least."
Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote takes her wine glass and returns to her chair. "Well, I am interviewing Aayah tonight." She inclines her head at Anise "Do you have any good or bad words to say about her" She gives a slightly impish smile.
Aayah Noudiyeh > /emote hadn't heard about any interivew, her eyes widen. But she stays silent, looking to Anise.
Anise Tig'res > /emote pauses, sipping her drink. "She's good natured, loyal to the kingdom, quite obediant." Anise smiles at Aayah, then to Luna. "She'd make a nice adition to a corporation with so few Khanid in the ranks, let alone the leadership."
Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods slightly. "How do you two know each other? Just by virtue of being one Khanid capsuleers or other reasons?"
Anise Tig'res > "She has visited me recently, we got to know one anouther."
Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods slightly. She chooses not to pry further "Well Aayah, Director Mithra has be tasked with asking candidates four questions to help assess their suitability. After the interview, I generally share the log with her and then we advise."
Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote smiles brightly "are you ready to begin?"
Aayah Noudiyeh > /emote nods. "Anise is a lovely hostess. I had a wonderful time." She grins at her friend, and then turns to Luna. "Yes, I am, Lunarisse. Though, I have to admit, this is catching me slightly by surprise."
Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote tilts her head slightly "How so?"
Aayah Noudiyeh > /emote shrugs, a twitch of her shoulders. "I had expressed interest to Anise, and others, towards joining SFRIM, but I wasn't aware that you had been made aware. I'm not upset, quite the opposite. I would have spoken to you about it eventually."
Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods slightly "Word does tend to move swiftly in our little circle." She looks amused.
Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Why were, are, you interested in joining SFRIM?"
Aayah Noudiyeh > /emote taps her chin thoughtfully for a moment, then smiles. "Do you mind if I take a seat?"
Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Not at all, please do"
Anise Tig'res > /emote takes a seat beside Aayah.
Aayah Noudiyeh > /emote appears to take a moment to consider her options, then chooses a seat, and sits in it. "Well... To answer your question." She sips her wine. Definitely stalling. "I was interested in your corporation, because I have liked every member I have met,...
Aayah Noudiyeh > met, I am disinterested in capsuleer warfare as a career, but I wish to serve the Empire. I believe those are the primary reasons."
Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods. "Fair enough. There are many vocations one can follow and we certainly are host to a number of non-capsuleer combat oriented ones."
Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Besides being a capsuleer corporation, we are also of the faithful. So Director Mithra has her last 3 questions oriented towards that"
Anise Tig'res > /emote raises her hand slightly. "It's here I should note that the Kingdom has several differences on matters of Faith, compared to the Empire as a whole Lunarisse. Especially in matters of technology and slavery."
Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods slightly "i recognize that. However, Director Mithra has a specific policy goal for SFRIM."
Lunarisse Aspenstar > Shall we see how Aayah does?
Aayah Noudiyeh > /emote gives a smile to Anise, then nods to Lunarisse. "Ask your questions. I hope my rudimentary soldier's grasp on the scriptures is sufficient."
Anise Tig'res > /emote quirks a brow at the idea of policy directions.
Lunarisse Aspenstar > "To you, what is the essence of the Faith?"
Aayah Noudiyeh > /emote rubs the stubble at the her temple, and squints her eyes. "Oh. God. You did not start small. Um."
Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Well this by definition is rather subjective"
Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote smiles softly.
Aayah Noudiyeh > /emote nods, and runs her hand through her loose mohawk, thinking. Then, she looks up and smiles. "To me, the essence of the Faith is belief in a fundamentally positive higher power, and a belief that he has a plan for me. All good springs from God."
Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods slightly and says brightly "that wasn't too bad?"
Lunarisse Aspenstar > Moving on!
Lunarisse Aspenstar > Our second question is "Is it more important to be born of Amarr blood or to live a righteous life in fear of god?" She glances at the two Khanids in the room involuntarily.
Aayah Noudiyeh > /emote grins at Anise, and quirks an eyebrow, out of sight of Lunarisse. Then, she turns back to her interviewer, and answers immediately. "To live a righteous life in fear of God."
Anise Tig'res > /emote nods satisfied.
Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods. "I will say in this area, we are considered 'liberal' by some. Yoy will be treated as a full member here based on your merits."
Lunarisse Aspenstar > Last question. have you had occasion to handle slaves, either because your family is of noble birth or through a custodial contrac? if so, what are your thoughts on how they are handled and trained, both spiritually and for secular matters such -c
Lunarisse Aspenstar > as their assigned duties?
Aayah Noudiyeh > /emote nods. "I have, during my military service. I believe that slaves should be treated well, taught the faith, and guided onto the path of righteousness as best one can. I admit that my duties had little to do with their spiritual training, however,
Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods and murmers "I can quite understand that, from personal experience."
Aayah Noudiyeh > and those slaves that were assigned to me were already well trained."
Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods and then asks, almost as an afterthought "What were your duties during your service?"
Aayah Noudiyeh > /emote sits a little straighter, and her chin rises proudly. "I reached the rank of Master Sergeant in the Royal Khanid Marines. I was responsible for training, organisation, and maintenance of logistics at the Battalion level, as well as leading men in...
Aayah Noudiyeh > combat."
Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote gives an impressed look "the same rank as me when I retired as a paladin. Tell me, why did you retire?"
Aayah Noudiyeh > /emote gives Lunarisse a respectful nod upon hearing their shared rank. "I was offered the opportunity to enroll in Capsuleer training. I believed I could better serve the Kingdom, Empire, and God as a capsuleer."
Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Well I hope we can give you that opportunity. I need to share this interview with Director Mithra, but I forsee no issues/"
Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Feel free to stay and socialize with Anise for a while if you'd like. We can also provide captain's quarters in station until we decide"
Aayah Noudiyeh > /emote visibly relaxes.
Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote smiles warmly as she gets up to leave "have a Blessed night, you two"
Anise Tig'res > /emote smiles. "I think you did quite well, dear."
Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote exits.
