Indeed, the Zaterran is dressed as an elf. He finds himself enjoying a candy cane in the equally festive throne room, awaiting orders from the empress. Not that she would ask him to do any real work today.

[𝐄𝐌𝐈𝐒𝐒𝐀𝐑𝐘 𝐎𝐅 𝐎𝐔𝐓𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐋𝐃. @AClDBATHED]

Sniff sniff.

[𝐄𝐌𝐈𝐒𝐒𝐀𝐑𝐘 𝐎𝐅 𝐎𝐔𝐓𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐋𝐃. @AClDBATHED]

Of course, milady. I’ll be getting started on the other task at hand as well. I will keep you updated on Skarlet.

[𝐄𝐌𝐈𝐒𝐒𝐀𝐑𝐘 𝐎𝐅 𝐎𝐔𝐓𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐋𝐃. @AClDBATHED]

Yawn.

[𝐄𝐌𝐈𝐒𝐒𝐀𝐑𝐘 𝐎𝐅 𝐎𝐔𝐓𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐋𝐃. @AClDBATHED]

The empress made cookies. What a lovely Friday.

[𝐄𝐌𝐈𝐒𝐒𝐀𝐑𝐘 𝐎𝐅 𝐎𝐔𝐓𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐋𝐃. @AClDBATHED]

— tell you this because Skarlet and I have been assigned to scour Outworld for what remains of Havik���s forces so we can ensure no one has remained behind to cause problem. As you can imagine, my role is mostly geared towards ensuring she doesn’t get out of control.”

[𝐄𝐌𝐈𝐒𝐒𝐀𝐑𝐘 𝐎𝐅 𝐎𝐔𝐓𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐋𝐃. @AClDBATHED]

“The reason that Skarlet can be so erratic is because she was created with blood magik. She has been overtaken with madness ever since the empress created her, and we’ve been trying to cure it ever since. But you know the rule, the more one uses it, the more mad they become. I —

"I seemed to have disturbed your slumber, I apologize for that."

She said, her tone was more softer and less stern than usual considering he's a guest and should be treated as such.

"My sister's creation yes?, we have met before but it wasn't pleasant however.~

— had done its magic, Syzoth full of his usual cheer and energy. These moments were reserved for allies and friends. Enemies of the empire saw a much different side.

“I firmly believe in the idea that if you see something and think of someone, you should gift it to them.”

[𝐄𝐌𝐈𝐒𝐒𝐀𝐑𝐘 𝐎𝐅 𝐎𝐔𝐓𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐋𝐃. @AClDBATHED]

“Heh. There’s can be no debt amongst friends. These blades are something I came across during my travels, and I thought they were remarkably fitting. Enchanted daggers that return to you when they’re thrown. I saw them and immediately thought of you!”

The sunlight’s warmth —

He huffed in annoyance at first, Reiko didn't take kindly to trespassers, especially if they invaded his own private quarters, yet he listened and opened the box.

His eyes widen for a little bit when presented with the small blade, now picking it and carefully examining it.

@Amatista_Kiwi // I would be interested to see your takes on other ships with Syzoth. Glad to see you around again!

[𝐄𝐌𝐈𝐒𝐒𝐀𝐑𝐘 𝐎𝐅 𝐎𝐔𝐓𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐋𝐃. @AClDBATHED]

// I am a big Subtitle (Syzoth x Bi-Han) enjoyer but I also enjoy Reiko x Syzoth a lot. I’m also open to everyone else’s ships. I like to hear HCs. :)

[𝐄𝐌𝐈𝐒𝐒𝐀𝐑𝐘 𝐎𝐅 𝐎𝐔𝐓𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐋𝐃. @AClDBATHED]

Syzoth hadn’t noticed yet. When he got too cold, he sometimes would fall asleep in a sunny spot. After all, he is a reptile.

[𝐄𝐌𝐈𝐒𝐒𝐀𝐑𝐘 𝐎𝐅 𝐎𝐔𝐓𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐋𝐃. @AClDBATHED]

A quiet snore as he startles awake.

“Mm?! Oh! Goodness, no, that’s okay. I think I’ve slept long enough. Sorry, Rain. I should know better than to rest in the sun and think I won’t fall asleep.”

[𝑹𝑨𝑰𝑵/𝒁𝑬𝑭𝑭𝑬𝑹𝑹𝑶 @MAGEOFARGUS]

“Want me to open the Window for you?” He asked the other walking up to the other

[𝐄𝐌𝐈𝐒𝐒𝐀𝐑𝐘 𝐎𝐅 𝐎𝐔𝐓𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐋𝐃. @AClDBATHED]

— on the bed, simple and grey. Inside were two daggers; etched with runes at their bases that glowed red. It was subtle. They were clearly enchanted.

“Go on and open it, hm? I figured we should become more acquainted, since we’re both respective right hands.”

[𝐄𝐌𝐈𝐒𝐒𝐀𝐑𝐘 𝐎𝐅 𝐎𝐔𝐓𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐋𝐃. @AClDBATHED]

Syzoth shifts, realizing through scent and sound that he was no longer alone. He sits up, face flushed green.

“O-oh, my apologies. I got too cold and took a moment. Next thing I knew, I fell asleep. I wasn’t in here to snoop—I brought you something.”

It was a small box —

[𝑹𝑬𝑰𝑲𝑶 @SPEAROFOUTWORLD]

His fists were clenched, yet he saw that the Zaterran left something near Reiko's own bed.

For now, he would have to stay calm and approach the other side, wondering what was it that the Shapeshifter left for him...

[𝐄𝐌𝐈𝐒𝐒𝐀𝐑𝐘 𝐎𝐅 𝐎𝐔𝐓𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐋𝐃. @AClDBATHED]

— anything else. You are familiar with Skarlet, yes?”

[𝐄𝐌𝐈𝐒𝐒𝐀𝐑𝐘 𝐎𝐅 𝐎𝐔𝐓𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐋𝐃. @AClDBATHED]

He sniffs the air and stands up, rubbing sleep from his eyes.

“My apologies, this spot just became too appealing for me. But yes, Lady Sindel, I have come to update you on the measures that your sister will be implementing. I need to give you some background before —

[❁ ☯︎ 𝑫𝑬𝑭𝑬𝑵𝑫𝑬𝑹 𝑶𝑭 𝑬𝑫𝑬𝑵𝑰𝑨 ☯︎ ❁ @edenianmother]

Removing her blade and letting it fall to the ground as she never felt any sentiment for it like she did to her other items, to her it was an echo of her past.

But she removed her crown from her head, setting it on the dresser before turning to Syzoth.

"You have news for me?"

[𝐄𝐌𝐈𝐒𝐒𝐀𝐑𝐘 𝐎𝐅 𝐎𝐔𝐓𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐋𝐃. @AClDBATHED]

Not likely. I don’t have time for any delays when it comes to impartial business, I fear.

[𝐄𝐌𝐈𝐒𝐒𝐀𝐑𝐘 𝐎𝐅 𝐎𝐔𝐓𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐋𝐃. @AClDBATHED]

@Amatista_Kiwi // I love your art in general and of Subtitle hehe you’re the ceo

[𝐄𝐌𝐈𝐒𝐒𝐀𝐑𝐘 𝐎𝐅 𝐎𝐔𝐓𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐋𝐃. @AClDBATHED]

Right, well, I only eat people if they make themselves enemies of the empire or try to hurt my friends.
