"Kao'Tu...What happened?" Stowes asked as he floated about in what seemed to be nothingness.
"You are incomplete, Stowes. Remiel had touched you with Chaos. The Warp Field in the Cluster easily reached you, so you were drawn to Chaos. Chronosia is the closest to Chaos, but Remiel was the one calling you. When I realized this when you disappeared, I followed you to Remiel's chamber from Chronosia. When I realized what was about to happen, I split you. There are now three Stowes. There's the Law Stowes, the Chaos Stowes, and the Balance Stowes. You are Balance. Law is undoubtly at the Panrabia. We must stop him before he begins to oppress Pananab and attacking all Chaos targets in the Cluster and the Galaxy."
"Then take us back!"
"I cannot. The strain from leaving Chronosia...The psychic power of Remiel and his guests, splitting you...Stowes, you don't realize this, but you're more powerful than I. You're the one who will bring us back to the Panrabia."
Stowes nodded and concentraded. They soon found themselves on the Panrabia. Law Stowes noticed the gaurds standing orderly and strait as their COs inspected them.
"Good god, he's reached them already," Kao'tu said. Suddenly, Stowes's voice erupted on the intercom systems. Only this Stowes sounded more formal and his voice unwavering.
"Any personell that come into contact with the psychic Kao'Tu, any of his Monks, and an ununiformed Stowes is to aprehend them immediately, either executing them on the spot or capturing them alive."
The squad of soldiers looked at Stowes who scoffed.
"I don't want to hurt you, really," Stowes said.
Even so, teh soldiers still apporched them. One of the soldiers, who was younger and less knowlegable of his Generalissimo, charged Stowes, who was quickly disarmed and rendered unconscious. A few shots on stun disabled the soldiers.
"Looks like we're going to have a lot of trouble re-taking the ship..."

Stowes and Kao'Tu were barely able to escape from the Panrabia, but to their credit they were able to save 5 of Kao'Tu's disciples. Jumping away in a warp-capable ship, they now had to kill time as they jumped towards the Cluster, where Zheng awaited Stowes's return.

"You know what? This is so goddammed confusing I'm just going to nod and agree. Law Stowes has the Stowian Demi-Fleet, which is bigger and better armed than mine. I've got a conference and posibly two wars to attend to now, three if this Remiel fellow starts burning everything," Zheng said after Kao'Tu explained.
"One top of that, we need to capture the other two Stowes."
"What? Dammit, I thought taht would be fixed if we killed them. Alright. There's only one thing we can do to match and disable the Panrabia."
"What's that?" Balance Stowes asked.
"I've got to commission the Panrabia II. I know it's not finished, but it's combat-capable and more completed than some of our best ships."
"It's also not being built in the Cluster."
"Which is why I'm leading a Quad-fleet to secure it."
"Leaving your other open to attack by Law or by one of the Cluster inhabitants."
"It's worth the risk."
"Alright. I'll command the other Quad-Fleet while you're gone. The moments I hear of a battle, though, I'm coming."
