(No words, just yes)
(Hehehehehe-)
???: "Ms. Linh, you were brought to this planet for a reason. To survive. You cannot let the queen see you."
"Why...why would she care about me...."
???: "She would care very much about you. She-she hates Lunar shells. Shells are immune to the Lunar glamour-their brainwashing. Queen Levana can't control shells, and she fears that which she cannot control-she will stop at nothing to kill those who would resist her-people like you. Do you understand me Ms. Linh? If she sees you, she will kill you. Please, please leave."
She just barely heard, watching as text scrolled across the bottom of her retina display
Just announced: Lunar Queen Levana to come to the Eastern Commonwealth for Peace Alliance discussions.
".......ok. I'll leave."
And nowwwwww-we do a perspective shift to Kai-Because Queen Levana is here.
(Oh it only gets better >:3)
The lunar spacecraft wasn't much different from those on Earth, except that it's body shimmered as if it was inlaid with diamonds, a string of gold runes encircling it's hull. The ship was far too bright in the afternoon sun. The ship landed without a jolt, heat rising from the concrete in blistering waves. The silk of Kai's shirt clung to his back as they waited. On Kai's other side, Sybil Mira stood perfectly composed, her guard standing a few feet behind her. Finally, when the queen seemed to grow tired of having them wait, the ramp of the ship descended. Two men came down first- one was Levana's guard, The other wore a coat similiar to Sybil's but in red, indicating his lower status as a second-tier thaumaturge. Sybil slinked forward, and Kai choked in a breath. Queen Levana appeared at the top of the stairs. Her long white veil was draped over her face, blinding in the sun. Her white dress whispered around her hips as she glided down the steps and accepted Sybil's hand
"Our separation was insufferable. I am pleased to be in your service once more, my queen."
She stood and lifted the veil back from Levana's head
"Mh...my sincerest apologies...but I look forward to seeing the Eastern Commonwealth's famed hospitality."
Sybil stepped forward
???: "I inspected your quarters my queen. They are subpar to that of Luna, but they will be adequate."
She didn't answer, gaze softening. All of the light was sucked out of the area. The sun had gone black, and she was the only source of light, causing Kai to gravitate towards her. Tears pricked the back of his eyes. He loved her. He needed her-he needed to please her-
(Lunar Manipulation)
"Thank you, but that will not be nessecary...I need some time with my thaumaturge to discuss some things in private."
She strode out of the landing sight, graceful as a feather, her entourage trailing behind her. The adoration dropped as she went out of view, unable to keep her manipulation of him up with him out of her view and not wanting to anyways. This had merely been a show of her strength...
