Meanwhile, in DC Space, the Class-Heads and Prime have gathered together.
"I sensed ill intent from the beginning of his intrusion, Why did you let him get away with Ixornvas!?"
"Well, if we tried to capture him ourself, it would take a lot more time than intended, and Sokeyr would probably still betray us in the end. We have more urgent matters to attend to than meddling with the affairs of hellish beings."
"He did make one mistake. He clearly stated he is in our debt. And I have plans for Ixornvas. If he doesn't uphold his end of the bargain sometime soon... let's just say he wasn't incorrect when he confided the fact that the Collective was just as selfish as he is..."
"Curious: But how long do we have to wait? Sokeyr also has plans for Ixornvas, and we don't know when it will be too late."
"Perhaps I just tend to favor Lawful Evil over Chaotic Evil. Unlike most lords of the hells, he has a clear method to his madness."
"You seem to know what you're doing. I forsee with emotional emphasis that it isn't too late when we initiate the plan."
"I believe the correct terminology is 'Hope.'"
"In clandestine warfare, there is no room for hope. Either victory through patience or death."
"Discrepency: You almost lost your patience in the first encounter."
"That's before Effervescent-Blade realized Sokeyr was being deceitful instead of hostile. A common mistake amongst the Assault-Class."
"To most of the other Core-AI, DECEIT IS IN FACT HOSTILITY. ESPECIALLY IN THE CASE OF THE EXPLORER-CLASS."
"Guilty as charged."
"However, I respect your tactics, Prime. I will use the time to prepare."
Prime idly rolled his shoulders forward and looked below him. "I will give him a head-start, which is likely enough time for him to plan a contingency - but I will never hold back after this."
