[After the mystery and isolation of their last destination, the Marsiva seems determined to head to brighter, busier territory. After a long journey through remote, nebula-painted space, speeding along at a brisk pace for the Host ship, the Marsiva brings her Fleet to a sudden and prominent point of traffic.

It seems that the Fleet has happened upon some sort of vacation destination! Maybe Atroma thinks that the passengers deserve some rest and relaxation... or just wants to distract them with something huge and shiny.

I'll drink to it.

[Natasha won't try to force more conversation for the moment, drinking something not unlike whiskey in companionable silence.]

[revengeofthemordsith]

[ Cara drinks with little to no finesse. With a snap to her lips, she puts her drink down. ]

[outstandingbalance]

You like it?

[Her smile softens a little at Cara's lack of subtlety.]

[revengeofthemordsith]

It's stronger than what I'm used to.

[outstandingbalance]

Is that a bad thing?

[revengeofthemordsith]

Not at all. Merely a different thing. Our temples are well-stocked but we didn't live like queens or anything fancy.

[outstandingbalance]

Are queens hard drinkers?

[She'd be lying if she claimed that the idea didn't amuse her.]

I always thought soldiers were harder drinkers in the end. Have to keep going somehow.

[revengeofthemordsith]

They are. But the nobles get the spoils more than anyone else.

[outstandingbalance]

That doesn't change. We don't call them nobles anymore, though.

[revengeofthemordsith]

What are they called then?

[outstandingbalance]

Depends. A lot of the time, just... people. Politicians. CEOs.

[revengeofthemordsith]

I'm afraid I do not know what those are.

[outstandingbalance]

There are some people who'd say you aren't missing much.

[revengeofthemordsith]

[ She scoffs lightly. ]

I'm wary of people like that. Is it ever enough to take public opinion?

[outstandingbalance]

You should be wary of people like that. Nothing is ever enough.

[revengeofthemordsith]

Being wary of all people usually pays off.

[outstandingbalance]

I don't know if it pays off, but it's usually not the wrong move.

[revengeofthemordsith]

Most would say it's not the right one either.

[ Kahlan and Richard would certainly disagree with Cara. ]

[outstandingbalance]

It comes at a cost.

[revengeofthemordsith]

Everything costs. You could draft up a list of things like that.

[outstandingbalance]

It's true. Just a matter of deciding if it's worth it for you in the end.

[revengeofthemordsith]

Have you decided?

[outstandingbalance]

I know what I'm trying now.

[revengeofthemordsith]

Which is?
