Matthias grinned, tilting his head as he did such, eying Marlene with caution, his right hand already on his laptop. "I'm sure you'll be more than satisfied. Stocks with Saiga Arms are doing extremely well, even in the current market."

Matthias Rueger chuckled to himself, this woman was rather feisty, not to mention cute. It was amusing how unimaginative the Aschen could be, at times. Hopefully they're a bit better in bed. he mused, pondering perhaps that the Baron of Sol would allow him his pick of them when the forces of the Sternflotte arrived. Regardless, the situation at present deserved more attention, and Matthias looked to Grosha for the first move. The LandwƤchter cell knew of the meeting, and it was likely that they were in the bar, but it would be Grosha's men who acted first.

Matthias looked to the woman before the small group, knowing she wasn't all there, and spoke up, projecting his voice as much as he could, "Pardon me, ma'am, but I really don't think she'd taste that good." He finished the statement with a glance to Ari before continuing, "All in all, I doubt she's enough meat on her for... oh. Wait." Pausing for a moment, he whispered, a grimace forming on his face, "You people don't eat dissenters..." He projected his thoughts as best he could, whether any in the bar would hear them or not he wouldn't know, but he sent the signal that all LW agents knew to be that of 'this shit's gone south'.

The call has sounded for the last time,
We all stand ready for the fight!
Soon the flags will fly over all the lands,
Triumphant standards of our race, reborn!


Drawing the weapon to him, he was ready to arm the gun, though he still awaited Grosha's final signal.

Matthias Rueger frowned slightly, the Halo had disappointed him. Keeping with him, he whispered, still listening in on what he could with the Aschen's mind. "De LandwƤchter standts reddi, ve vill die vif glory."

The three vessels seemed to simply appear over the planet below, had one not been watching one'd barely have noticed their arrival. The three were part of the new vanguard of the Hegemony's navy, utilizing the new technologies bestowed upon them by their Erutin allies, they were able to traverse any distance in but a few moments, save that they had the proper coordinates. Three destroyers were what had arrived and the triangular vessels, though on a course to inspect the planet, had not yet powered their weapons, being that there was no sign, as their senors read, that there were any known hostile vessels in the area.

However, their sensors did read that the planet below was populated, and as the scouting group had reported, it was buzzing with energy. Of what kind, the LandwƤchter detachment had yet to ascertain, and so they continued to probe the world below with their sensors, curious as to its nature.

The bridges of the destroyers were abuzz with activity with the activation of, what they figured to be, weapons on the planet below, obviously a logical conclusion due to their silent arrival. The communications officer on the primary vessel, the Relentless, reported to his superiors of a communication originating from the world below, awaiting further instructions. The captain, being the true commander of the vessel, was allowed by the residing LW official, Matthias, to engage in communication. Matthias, as skilled as he was, wasn't a very good first impression, especially since his failure on Terra. The captain, a middle aged man who rather looked the part, responded as cordially as he could, apologizing for their sudden arrival,

"This is captain Daimler of His Imperial Majesty's Interstellar Vessel Relentless, and we apologize for our sudden arrival. Our new drives aren't the most predictable, and we didn't mean to alarm."

The response wasn't immediate, the captain conversing with Matthias before making his moves in this diplomatic game. Already in a stance of parade rest, the captain, clad in the trappings of his office, replied, "An understandable move, as are we. But, to answer your question-"

"We were curious. Your world emits an energy signature we have rarely seen outside of rare situations." Matthias interrupted the captain, and he had every right to being commander of the expedition, and his stress on the last words showed that the last time wasn't the most pleasant experience. "And we assure you, sir, that we have only the best at heart. Our weapons are inert and our shields lowered, and now that we see that you aren't..." He trailed off for a moment, hesitant to discuss such matters without outsiders, "That you are a reasonable man, perhaps we could speak in a more personal manner."

Matthias paused, the foreign leader's question catching him by surprise. He had to remember that they were no longer in the Cluster, but in Home. Thinking of the best response he could word, he replied, "It is no trouble. I am Matthias Rueger, emissary of the LandwƤchter, guardians of the regent and His name, blessed may it be." Pausing for a moment, having made the symbol of the triad over his breast, Matthias continued, his head returning to an upright position with such force that his dagger jingled against its carrier slightly, "We represent the Hegemony of Aligned Systems, united under the banner of our immortal lord, Josef Kampf."

The question regarding the 'rare situations' was one that any citizen of the Hegemony, if they knew their history, could pick out at any time. He, of course, was referring to the Aboraz, creatures that dwelt in the murky depths of the Cluster's gas giants capable of unimaginable power. "We waged quite a war against a race whose planets mimicked the sensor that your world gives off. We wanted to be sure that they hadn't arrived here."

Sharing in his laugh, Matthias engaged in something that was rare from him, and it showed. Laughter didn't come naturally to him, his training made sure of that. Bowing in return, rather graciously, as he was addressing what would rank as a superior, Matthias returned to his upright position and proceeded to salute in the typical Belkan manner, his right arm maintaining the rigid, iconic pose for only a moment. "A pleasure to make contact, sir. Would you be opposed to a meeting in person, on your world?"

The Belkans acknowledged the communications, and from the central vessel five craft could be seen descending - a dropship and four fighters in escort. Descending to the planet below, they made their way gradually to the designated area, and as the four fighters flew a defensive pattern around the pad the dropship sat down. The ramp of the vessel descending moments thereafter, a squad of armored men emerging from the orifice. Being met with troops that seemed oddly familiar to themselves, the marines looked to each other and arrayed themselves in a defensive pattern around the ramp.

Slowly descending was Matthias, clad in his black dress uniform, his cybernetic eye dominated his facial features. He had failed his Lord, and now he was better equipped to deal with whatever might come in the future, though that didn't make the torture any less painful. With his aiguilette fluttering along with his greatcoat in the wind, he turned to what he believed to be the entrance to the place.

Following the soldier's initiative, Matthias returned the courtesy and motioned for his men to follow, eager to witness the grandeur of the Araxian civilization. Almost immediately it was present that they were experiencing issues with domestic dissent, graffiti had a way of betraying that. That wasn't to say that there wasn't any back in the Hegemony, just that it was kept under much tighter wraps.

Following the path designated by the soldier, Rueger and his entourage proceeded to the top of the stairs before them, standing in what would've been the shadow of a rather magnificent building. Entering quickly, Matthias and his men, who had now slung their weapons, soon awaited further directions to meet with the Araxian leader.

Saluting his host, Matthias raised his right hand into the air, snapping the heel irons of his jackboots together before dropping the hand back to his side and removing his own headgear - a black gabardine peaked cap. His guards, thirteen men, organized into formation behind him, and after coming to attention, dropped to a state of parade rest. Rueger, after watching to make sure that they performed adequately, gestured to a seat before him, asking, "May I, sir?"

ā€œIf you wouldnā€™t mind, sir, Iā€™d be delighted.ā€ Taking the seat that was offered, Matthias made sure that his dagger didnā€™t disturb the aural setting in any way, and, once situated, looked to his host. Waiting for him to finish, as was proper, he leaned forward in his seat, not wanting to seem like he considered this meeting a light one. ā€œYou must forgive me sir, I donā€™t know your proper title.ā€ His apology was sincere, if not monotone, as most things were with Matthias. His cybernetic eye glowing an odd hue of yellow, blending almost into a shade of ochre, giving him an almost inhuman quality.

Matthias Rueger thanked the woman silently, nodding graciously as she left him his beverage. She looked to be of average stock, fair in her own, proletarian way. Turning back to his host, the High Emperor, he took a sip of the drink that he'd attained, rather curious to explore the flavor. He could tell as he partook that his gaze had fallen behind him, his augmented eye analyzing all his brain could stand in the room while he maintained his nonchalant front. "It was, High Emperor, save for disturbances of only an aesthetic nature." One could tell that Wyl cared little for the dissenters, and thus Matthias spoke, "I hope the issues isn't too serious, sir."

"A wise move, certainly... and many have and still are." Nodding to himself, he was rather taken with the drink, the initial bitterness having provided a nice contrast with the eventual sweet flavor. Setting it down with a soft clink, which seemed rather unsuited for the man, he continued, "We see less of it in the Hegemony, I believe. That's not to say you're doing a poor job, Emperor Wyl, just that we have had little choice over the centuries."

"A true shame, it seems that you're one of the few people here who knows what they're doing." It was a rather odd feeling for Matthias, to express an opinion, it was hard thinking for one's self after the redoubling efforts that the state enforced. "Perhaps my people, when they arrive in number, could assist?"

Matthias nodded before finishing off the rather intriguing drink, returning his hands to his lap once he'd sat it down again. Looking to the emperor, he pondered for a moment just how to suggest such a thing, and were one quite observant, they'd have noticed a slight twinge of a smirk beginning to show on his face. It was uncanny, almost, how similar the Araxian soldiers were to the Hegemony's own landsers, sharing many of the same qualities. Perhaps He appeared to them, save in a different form. "Emperor, this seems odd to suggest, but I believe that there's much we could both gain from cooperation, even beyond this Black Fox."

Matthias allowed the woman to do as she was told, inhaling to think on just how to further extrapolate his idea to the foreign, but amiable, emperor. One could tell that Wyl was pleased, to an extent, and such put Matthias on the spot - he had to measure up. "We, the Hegemony and your people, seem to be, how should I say... ideologically aligned? We do not prostitute ourselves to the people, we realize that only those worthy should govern. One cannot attain power without merit." Leaning back for the first time in his seat, the back of the chair rather comforting, having been standing for a majority of the previous hour or so. "Our experiences with democratic fools in this galaxy has been less than pleasant. To put it plainly, we recognize that your culture seems to be a step ahead of the curb, and you've yet to truly reach for the stars." Pausing for a moment, he considered adding onto his statement, not wanting to offend, "From what we've seen thus far in this visit, not to insinuate anything, Lord Wyl."

"We don't mean to insinuate, either, that your people require assistance. Rather, through His grace, our regent would like to offer it." Matthias tried his best to be amiable. An odd thing for a Belkan, truly. "If His will is made reality, there will be need of people like yours, Lord."

Matthias nodded, almost in a bowing manner, hoping that he wasn't causing the Emperor to grow distracted with the vista behind him. "We would be honored to provide it, Emperor Wyl. We are beginning to phase out several classes of vessels, and there are much more dignified uses for such loyal craft than target practice."
