Hmm. It seems I have been hibernating in her for too long. There have been many changes... I must reattune myself with this place and find a way to further my goals. With or without the LVMBP.

Perhaps Frio's long absence has given her time to rethink her stance? Hopefully she can rejoin us and things could be like they once were. I still have hope...

Frio, the LVMBP is just using you! Grape-boy is never going to share control - why settle for being his second banana?

Frio...

The lack of respect shown to my palace bodes very ill, indeed.
Gary, I apologize for not being here for you. Perhaps now that we have both recovered, we might carry on as we once were..?

I am... relieved at your current state, Gary, but alarmed by your recent alliances in my absence. Please we have much to discuss. But first-- privacy.
<places a magical ice shield around them>
There, we are suitably protected. Now, I believe there is much you must update me on. Where has Lonestar Ranger gone? Why have you aided the Security Office? Is the LVMBP no more?
I have heard nothing but the barest rumblings for weeks. As I'm sure you can understand, it has been most disconcerting.
<takes his hand in hers>
Please, you are the only one left I trust. Especially now that my so-called sister Caliente has taken another so deeply into her confidence that she would marry him.
Despicable, the both of them.

There are a few things you must understand M'Lady.
Dominion over a pile of rubble was never our goal and that is all that will be left of Legion World if we allow the Security Office to handle most of these issues on their own. And each issue we resolve for them strengthens our position as it weakens theirs.
The real power on Legion World lies in the Security Office. Cobalt Kid has always known this. Elected Leaders come and go but CK is Security Chief (or whatever title he chooses to use while he pretends that Abin Quank and matlock are actually running the Security Office) for LIFE.
And there is no way short of assassination or armed rebellion to remove him from that position.
But as this series of events unfolds I am slowly usurping CK's authority. LMBPers are beginning to look to me for the answers to their problems... Even CK and LardLad... As things move on it will become easier and easier to supplant the roles filled by CK's sycophants with our people.
Lonestar is working behind the scenes... and now that you're back...

Certain subtleties are needed at first, before we give these fools the show of force they so desperately need. Even now Gary Concord is causing a rift between longtime friends on playing on certain fears.
And in the meantime, I’m working on a separate, but equally beneficial plan that will help our goals. The Legion World economy has forever hinged on the wealth of but a small handful of Legionnaires, including royalty, nobles and former triumvirs. And that is how I will hurt them the most.
But do not think I have not forgotten my promise. I will turn Caliente to our side so that your sister can join you and enjoy the great life we are going to make for ourselves. Even now, I’m working to distance her from her newly wedded husband to do so. I only will need some more time, so that she can reach these conclusions on her own.

Well, that is relieving, at least. I'm pleased you've been able to make progress in my absense. I am, of course, at your service for whatever we may need to next further our agenda.
(For as long as it serves my interests, anyway.)
<looks to Lonestar>
Turn Caliente? Yes, I think that shall satisfy her well enough. Thank you, Lonestar Ranger, for your constant vigilance on this matter. Perhaps my trust has not been misplaced in this matter.

<Watches Frio's interaction with Lonestar silently, while wondering to himself who exactly would be satisfied if Caliente were "turned">
Frio my dear, I believe a small celebration is in order. Would you care to join me for dinner? And perhaps a show?
