The Dark Nexus
14-07-2004, 15:24
The grand entrance hall of The Dark Nexus' capital castle is being cleaned and decorated for a huge party to cellebrate the reopening of inter-nation comunication (ooc: The Forums). As the people rush around, finishing the few remaining tasks, their rulers over see the prosses. Divine Empresss Joanna and Magisara Jessica are twins in their early twenties. Joanna inherited much more than from her late mother, The Overlady, than just a name. She also has The Overlady's infamous beuty: deep blue eyes and blond hair that cascades down her shoulders. Her sister Jessica is also quite beutiful, her blond hair much shorter but the same blue eyes.
"I hate this thing," Jessica mutters to Joanna, gesturing to the white and gold robe she's wearing. "It's too much like a dress."
"If I had my way, you would be wearing a dress," Joanna replies. She gestures to the dark blue strapless dress she wears. "Something like this would look good on you. Just be glad you get to wear the sword."
Jessica reaches up and grabs the hilt of the broadsword, The Sword of The Five Kings that hangs on her back. "It's the symbol of my power. You wouldn't go anywhere without your tiara, would you?"
"I supose not. But do keep it sheathed durring this party, okay? The sight of that blood-stained thing would-" Joanna is cut off as the doorswing open and a few people gasp. In walks a man in a flowing cape and a grinning silver mask.
"Lord Thurston, so glad you could come," Joanna walks up to the man and he begins to bow, but the Empress sweeps him into an embrace. "No need for formallities, dear friend, tell us, how is Nexus Prime?" Steve Thurston is the slightly deranged lord of the Nexian colony of Nexus Prime. It was created not only to populate the world beyond but also to allow The Dark Nexus a say in the UN without having to follow its bleeding-heart decrees.
"Things are well. Only things I can complain about is that acursed Greg Tampin and his Neo Nexian Comunist Party. Oh, and there's those terrorists."
"Ah, you're having trouble with the Phantom Claw as well? They're becoming quite a nuisence." Jessica smiles slightly, "Though nothing we can't handle."
"They're quite angry about the Tempest Engine," Joanna adds, nodding. "But come and sit, the guests should arrive shortly and then we will make our little proposal."
