Ralyith gracefully yet somewhat hurriedly accepted the Duke's handshake, and then slowly walked back to the Phoenix Wing, while trying not to put too much pressure on her right foot... Given that she'd broken it by being blown across the hanger by the now blown up battleship's cannon, and after all, her armour just simply wasn't meant to take as much punishment as it took.
"So what you're telling us is that the residents and patrons are blaming us for the destruction Duke Sliscus." Arsys had other things he wanted to do but now that could be put on hold of what the Duke said was true. No reason to start trouble when he didn't need to.
~~Phoenix Wing~~ "Your quarters." Kareen assured him with a soft smile. "I think I will be fine, unless you insist of course." "Cethynemeer." she replied, not completely convinced if the Phoenix Lord was acting tough or honest. However once they reached his room, she would see to get the armor removed and have it treated properly. ~~ Bazaar - Lower Decks ~~ "The store owner of this pet stand?" He asks out loud, rubbing the back of his helmet and looking around. "I fear not...." And suddenly a hatch from beneath a carpet opened and the old man climbed out, having heard the familiar voice. Yahzahn ran up to him and hugged him instantly, the man embracing him in return. "Found him." The Kaballite said, pointing out the obvious. ~~ Duke Sliscus - Lower Decks ~~ The Duke side-stepped to avoid the head. Some of his lackeys could touch that ugly Kroot head, but he was very well aware of the bounty, after all he was the one who put it up. So he didn't had to pay anyone - double win! He turned to Arsys then as everyone else appeared to be leaving. "Destruction?" He rose an eyebrow and laughed. "Liberation my friend. Liberation. Surely they will only write more songs about you and all that typical Phoenix Lord praising, who knows, perhaps you will even hear demands to raise a shrine here. It appears that Lord Ty'rel's disciples are after all, already residing here." The Comorrite shrugged. "But why so upset? Isn't destruction in your job description? You know, being the lords of Khaine, the god of war, destruction, death, blood, homocide, genocide, murder, assassination, blowing stuff up, kicking, punching, slicing, penetrating.... (he listed a 'few' more things) and of course decapitating."
Ty'rel laughed then held his hands up. "No, no. I only offered up my quarters for your peace of mind and safety my lady. Should you have both I would not insist on you doing anything you do not wish to do. Just know my doors will always be open, though getting through the opening is probably the tricky part. Still, I am glad to hear you feel better to use your original quarters once again. Is there anything else you would like me to help you with?"
~~Phoenix Wing - Library~~ @WanderingJester "Not in particular I think, no. But I will see to knock on your doors should I have horrid nightmares." She smiled up at him, turning even away from her book. He couldn't point his finger on what it was, but Kareen appeared to be shining bright in comparison to before, whomever she met or whatever she did on shore leave, it must have helped tremendously.
Ty'rel did a bit of a bow. "Well then, I take my leave then m'lady." He quickly jumped to the kitchen to quickly grab a bite, before back to his quarters where he plopped in the web hammock again, taking another nap.
<Tirigon> With much effort the armor clasps came off as he removed the armor from his leg. His ankle was swollen pretty badly, and it made getting the armor off that much more difficult. "Bloody Tau, why we ever let that race reach maturity I will not understand."
"Yes senseless murdering machines, that's all we are. Excuse me while I go destroy an orphanage and a box of puppies." He walked away from the Duke heading towards the bazaar.
"If you can handle psychic children and those enormous beasts you call 'puppies' sure! Good luck!" Sliscus yelled after the marching-off Phoenix Lord before straightening his coat. Well what was he up to again? Ah yes! And so with purpose he marched off to get back to the upper levels. "To keep the Imperium from expanding further south and threaten the remaining Exodite worlds, milord." Cethynemeer responded neutral. "I will get an ice-pack, it should accelerate your healing process." It was a statement, not a request and went to the kitchen to get it.
"Ahh thank you." She said as the two were reunited she wen't to the shop keeper of the pet shop she wanted to know how bad things wen't here on the bazaar level. "I have returned your boy safely to you, What happened here?" she asked him as she saw the destruction she already knew it was from the battle from likely eldar forces and humans, and possibly tau but she somewhat wanted to know how it wen't down. That and the payment for finding the boy that Trygon she wanted to traded for.
