As Lt. Bird walked in, Mileena was still entranced by her spinning sai, and only her piercing eyes shot up to view him once he knocked. She acknowledged his offer with a low growl, particularly displeased by his mannerisms. Nevertheless, she stopped her sai and held it in her other hand, observing the thin trail of blood streaming down her finger. "That sounds more my speed." she responded with a rasp, dragging her bloody finger across each cheek, leaving a streak of it behind on either side like a sort of battle-paint. "Who will be joining us?" -
For the Empress of Naz'jatar, life was easy, and luxurious. The view she had of the ocean from her throne was breathtaking, the Naga tended to her every whim, and the Resistance nary bothered to oppose her. The very fact that her city stands at the very bottom of Chralmede's eastern sea was enough to deter their forces, and left her free to toy with them as she pleased. The four sister Sheva, Zheva, Asprah and Svallah all lightly fanned their queen's fair elven skin while she lounged atop her golden seat, relaxing during their afternoon. Her gentle routine was soon interrupted, however, as the throne room doors swung open to allow her military leaders; the warlord Rash'jelan, and the enchantress Dallah; entrance. A pair of sirens accompanied them, holding a milky white pearl. Azshara swiftly sat up in her throne to tend to her abrupt audience with them.
"What is the meaning of this interruption?" bellowed the queen. At her voice, the four sisters lowered their fans, and every other Naga in the room bowed their heads, including her advisors.
"We apologize, my Empress, but we come with news requiring your immediate attention." Rash'jelan began, allowing Dallah to slither further forward with her sirens.
"Our scoutsss have spotted the Normandy flying towardsss an abandoned city directly southwessst of the cove, not too long after mysteriousss lightsss filled the sky above it." continued the Sea Witch, bringing her sirens forward, and having them deliver the pearl into Azshara's hands. As Azshara peered into the swirling orb, visions of the Stars falling into the city, and of the Normandy flying from one city to the other appeared within it, before returning to its regular translucency.
"So, the Resistance wishes to chase after a few of Elune's Tears?" Azshara said to herself with a giggle and a grin, before handing the pearl back to Dallah's sirens. "The men and women of Naz'jatar continue to serve me well, Dallah, and Rash'jelan."
At her compliment, both advisors bowed their heads again and uttered their thanks.
"We thank you, Empress." "We thank you, Empresss."
"Dispatch one of our war parties, quickly! Their headstrong commander will be vulnerable when treading upon the city's sewer system. We will strike an impressive blow to their forces if done correctly. Time is of the essence!" she shouted, barking orders like a true leader.
"Right away, Empress." "Right away, Empresss."
