The Black Garden Conference

Diplomatic action

A conference between the Olgrim Dynasty & the Ovalin Dynasty discussing a partnership between the denizens of gale's surface & gale's underground.

One morning a emissary of the Ovalin Dynasty, nimrith ovalin teleported into the city of Gardenia asking for an audience with the king & queen to discuss a partnership between the rulers of gale's underground & the rising power of the Olgrim Dynasty. Due to no hostility being shown Sellfur agreed to this conference occuring in the olgrim palace from nimrith's magic came lord & lady ovalin teleported directly into the city.   King Sellfur: So it's been brought to my attention that house ovalin.   Lady Ovalin: The ovalin dynasty sellfur you already got it wrong guess that's what happens when you deal with orcs.   Lord Ovalin: Ignore her please continue.   King Sellfur: Ok the ovalin dynasty wants a partnership with us.   Queen Neve: You've already made a horrible first impression with your prejudiced remark which is factually incorrect. He's a half-orc and incredibly intelligent.   Lady Ovalin: Frankly I couldn't care less what specific race he is or who his orc dad nailed to make him.   Queen Neve: Wrong again his mom is an artic orc his dad human just get to the point you look dumb enough.   Out of frustration lady ovalin gets up, pulls out a scythe made of blood crystals and goes to attack Neve but as the scythe makes contact it bounces off as a barrier cloaking her made from nimrith casting invulnerability on the gardenian queen.   Nimrith: Mother our objective is a conference not an assassination what would silica think of this a poorly done job, would get your power revoked.   Both were incredibly annoyed but calmed down and resumed their meeting.   Lord Ovalin: As my wife was saying the point is that our partnership would involve our people being able to be imbued with the same vigor as your people, the necessary resources would go to the darkin, & your people would allow silica into their hearts suppressing these other religions.   King Sellfur: Correct me if I'm wrong but that doesn't sound like a partnership it sounds like we'd be your enslaved vassals.   Queen Neve: Exactly did you think we'd agree to that and accept silica your evil, misandrist goddess what do you take us for.   Lady Ovalin: I take you as rulers who care about the well being of their people. We can make your lives very painful if you don't comply. I get what I want, don't cross me.   Nimrith: Mother please ....   Lady ovalin fires a blast of necrotic plasma at nimrith and he instantly holds up his arms to block the attack but as it makes contact it does not hurt as a barrier covered him as neve casted invulnerability.   Queen Olgrim: Is that how you treat your child the way he reacted instantly tells me you frequently do this you make me sick how many of your kids have you abused.   Lord Ovalin: You mean how many have we made strong through the harshness of the underground? You don't have children so don't judge.   King Sellfur: We could still judge those who abuse children leave my palace & city your not welcomed here ever again and nimrith try to leave these guys they aren't good for you or your siblings don't leave them behind to become like your parents.   Nimrith: Well it seems like our time is done mother, father let's go.   Nimrith casts his teleportation spell sending him, lady ovalin, & lord ovalin out of gardenia not before leaving a device under his chair unbeknownst to his parents.   King Sellfur: That won't be the last of them right.   Queen Neve: I'm afraid now you know silican drow they will not stop until they have what they want.   King Sellfur: Well where not giving it to them under any circumstances we may have war to deal with.   Queen Neve: I agree they are not going to leave us alone and we may have to fight but how do we beat them? They have the entirety of the underground under their thumb and we rely on the kindness of others; it's a city versus a country.   King Sellfur: You act like we haven't dealt with insurmountable odds before we've beaten many powerful foes and the avatar of salem it'll be tough but I'm certain we can come out on top.   Queen Neve: Ok sellfur if you believe we can then I'm behind you 100%.   King Sellfur: Beside me honey.   Queen Neve: Right dear but what about the people how do we tell them war between us and the darkin will erupt any day?   King Sellfur: We'll just tell them honestly what good comes from hiding it to our people.   Queen Neve: You're right but let's tell them tomorrow I'm tired and scared enough to draw in a hundred soulless.   King Sellfur: Chuckle ... Ok dear let's tell them tomorrow.
