Problems Schmoblems

[Achan]

When the trio arrived in Pram's Netherworld, the overlord went straight to her room and threw herself on the bed. What a bother. This frigid stickler could ruin her little ruse if he and she weren't careful.

"All right," she muttered. "What's so important that you need to spoil my fun."

[Overlord Sothmir]

Alphonse saluted, knowing that Pram was upset with him for just existing. He kept his eyes locked onto her own, the last thing he needed was to mess things up.

"Overlord...your...secret. It is in danger. Some of your subjects are becoming arrogant, and are forming military sects of their own...they think they can defy you. I need permission for military action to snuff out this rebellion before it ever happens. Overlord Pram...if this gets out to the public...well...you know the gravity of your...secret escaping." he said, not budging from his salute.

[Achan]

Pram raised an eyebrow and sat up, leaned forward. She seemed interested in what this man had to say. Yet, there could always be a possibility that this man - like so many others - was playing their own little ruse.

"Interesting. So I have a few upstarts, eh? Hmm..." Pram stroked her chin as she leaned back into her pillows. "Have any names?"

[Overlord Sothmir]

Vundtstein nodded as he procured from his front jacket pocket a list. He unrolled the list in one quick, harsh motion, yet not a single tear appeared upon the list. He cleared his throat before reading some of the names that appeared.

"General Issac Galvin, Captain Neil Eithmos, Archmage Bishop Qualm..." he read the entire list as quickly and efficiently as possible, but then cleared his throat once again before rolling the list again in one quick motion, and storing it once more in his front pocket.

"They all seem to have unified under a central figure that they all refer to as 'The One'. They claim that your ambitions shall inevitably fall prey to its power, and that you shall be its first target, due to your power relative to the length of your reign as the Overlord. There was no previous information to be found on this 'One' entity, however. If you give me the permission, Overlord Pram, I swear to you, that I shall crush them where they stand, and allow your followers to know their place...and that way, you can resume your...fun, without having to waste your time on these insects" he said, his accent making his final words seem even more malicious than normal.

Kite mewed in delight at the prospect of a fight. He pumped his paw in the air, the adrenaline pumping through his system. Kite waved his giant fish around like a club. Though without the power of speach, his eagerness to fight radiated from his tiny frame.

[Achan]

My, such a dangerous little general she had. But it paid to have some more.. serious folks in her army. If she wasn't careful...

"How have you come across this information?" she asked. "Have they confided in you, or do you have a contact from within?"

Pram leaned forward again, smiling. "I'd care not to get my people into an uproar unless absolutely necessary, you understand. Exercising your 'military authority' would seem a bit excessive at this stage in the game."

[Overlord Sothmir]

Colonel Vundtstein could not help but disagree, if they were to crush them, there would never be an upstart, but, he could see why she was relcutant to send an army blasting through the countryside.

"I have several men posing as members of this organization. I understand your wish to not have an army charging through and causing unneeded chaos, Overlord Pram, however, with so many prominent members of your army openly defying you, the public may already be in some state of confusion" he stated seriously.

He stood at ease, with both of his hands clasped behind his back, "If you do not wish for me to make use of my 'military authority', I assume that perhaps you have different plans or methods of stopping this rebellion before it becomes out of hand?"

[Achan]

"Indeed." Pram hopped off the bed and to her feet. "Two very distinct plans, actually. Do tell what you like better."

She smiled at both the thoughts.

"Number one, you supposedly turn on me and join this One person. Get the information for yourself rather than other sources." Pram eyed the pet hilkitty. "Kite-kun too may also do the trick.

"Or number two, I shall confront them on my own... and make them a deal. No need to get messy. Just straightening things out." She chuckled. "After all, they may have dirt on me... but I've got ooooh so much more on everyone in this little kingdom of mine."

[Overlord Sothmir]

He was a bit dissapointed that Pram would let these traitors survive...however, she thought it was a good idea, and Pram was quite intelligent. He did not like the idea of Overlord Pram exposing herself to possible assassination during these dealings, especially against these zealots...

"To be honest, Overlord Pram...I prefer the deeper insurgency mission. These people are zealots, I am not sure as to what they will agree to. I am willing to sacrifice my life, I am expendable...Overlord Pram, you, are not. If...Kite...wishes to assist me, then he is welcome to. I shall find out everything I can about this...One. I know you must still have more important matters to attend to." his Prussian accent sodifying each word. For now, he seemed to be a very loyal soldier.

[Achan]

Pram looked down on her feline friend. She had a hard time trusting this military nutso. Was he truly on her side? That.. would be why Kite needed to accompany him, to make sure that the man who wanted to keep her people in line would be kept in line himself.

She looked back up at the Colonel. "I wish Kite to assist you. He is my loyal servant, and a good fighter if the situation arises." Pram smirked at the helkitty. "Wanna do a little reconnaissance work?"
