Zhiqi sighs, turning and burying her face in Eshevrhi. "You're right." Of course he is. He always is. It still hurts, though. She wraps her arms around him and squeezes gently.

He hugs her back, patting and rubbing her back gently.

"Thanks."
After a few, she sighs and gets up. "Is there anything we can do about... them besides wait?"

Eshevrhi licks his lips, and when he speaks his voice is soft and hoarse. "No. No. Any interference with Virinus could be deadly."

She swallows, and nods. "Then we should prepare. Are you going to contact Lys?"

Eshevrhi nods slowly. "What exactly do you want to say?"

Zhiqi takes a deep breath. "That... we applaud your venture, and wish to aid you in assuming control of the Akran portal, turning it into a neutral zone where people may cross freely from Sinis to Terra..." she swallows. "And back again."

Eshevrhi nods, and pulls a tablet out from under a stack of papers, staring at it silently for a few minutes before typing a response.
Heard about war on Azandra. Good for you. Zhiqi and I applaud that, and were considering turning Akra and the portal into a safe/neutral zone, allowing safe passage for anyone between the two sides of the globe should they want it.
He holds the tablet, reading it over again, and then passes it over to Zhiqi to look at.

Zhiqi laughs, a bit bitterly. "I don't know about the 'good for you'. Wise, yes, but that sounds more like a celebration, which war isn't. Aside from that, I wouldn't change a thing." She keeps quiet about the "anyone". If that's what they want, then that's what it'll be.

Heard about war on Azandra. Interesting choice. Zhiqi and I applaud that, and were considering turning Akra and the portal into a safe/neutral zone, allowing safe passage for anyone between the two sides of the globe should they want it.
And he hits send, sending it off, waiting for a response silently.

"Should I..." Zhiqi starts, then stops when she realizes she still doesn't know how else to prepare. "Is there something else I should do while we wait?"

Eshevrhi shakes his head. "You should eat breakfast."

She laughs. Oh! She'd forgotten completely about breakfast. "You're right, I should!" Noting the presence of his breakfast still on the table, she adds, "And so should you, Laurel."

Eshevrhi looks at his untouched meal and then sighs. Miraculous that none of his papers wound their way on top of it. He picks up the plate and puts it in front of him, and grins bashful at her. "Yeah. I got distracted."

Zhiqi grins and kisses him on the forehead. "Don't worry about it. So did I... now eat, please."

He nods, and instead stands up and starts clearing a place beside him so that she'll have somewhere to sit and to put her own breakfast, and then sits down and takes a few bites before picking up some diagrams and laying them out beside him thoughtfully...

Shortly, the tablet pings with a reply:
We desire resolution, not to rule. Do with these lands what you will. Alliances are welcome but not required. Seeking contact with Xree soon, perhaps others. We only do that which is necessary to protect this world.

Eshevrhi looks at the message quietly, breathing a deep sigh of relief at the first sentence, and looks over at Zhiqi. "We forgot to ask if they would help... Also, it looks like Lys...is going to Freeze."

"Hm." Zhiqi raises her eyebrows, mouth full of food. She swallows, then speaks. "We should mention it now, then. Explain how Azandra's forces on the other side of the portal may be hostile, and request aid?" No comment on Freeze yet, except the eyebrow-raising.

Might be hostiles on other side. Az's. Would you be willing to assist with that?
He passes the tablet over for Zhiqi to proof it.
