AFR nodded. "Of course not... and I have a feeling Kat will embrace the chance to leave... hopefully with grace." He had his doubts. "We had a good run, but I don't even know the girl anymore." He looked back at him again as his face hardened. "As long as the bounds are set with dignity on all sides Rose shouldn't have a problem... I think the whole issue was with the complete lack of it on all sides the first decision to get her out. She certainly can't win over my respect any... not with her attitude adjustment as of late. It's why I went to the US to begin with."

-Armok nods, then reaches in his desk. He sets the Knight-Marshal insignia on the desk, then slides it towards AFR-
Speaking of... if the United States will give you back to me, I need a second again. Officially.
-He pulls out two shot glasses and another ancient bottle of scotch-
Regardless of your answer, we should celebrate Tanor's demise. And your promotion.
-Armok grins at AFR, then pours two shots-
I have reached a conclusion that all official Inner Sanctum personnel need to be re-certified after a one on one interview with you or myself. If you don't have time for that, I will deal with it.

AFR grinned. "I don't think the US should have any issue with that considering all of my superiors there are probably going to lose their jobs for actions to bend to the will of a tyrant." He accepted the insignia quickly and the glass Armok offered as well. "It'd be my honor, brother." He offered his glass to him to toast the reunion. Then at the secondary task. "Certainly don't want any second guessing at this point after all of that. If their hearts are not joined with the clan it could only hurt them and us to force them to be here as it did with Kat. Just let me know who you'd like me to contact first."

-Armok nods-
Bianca. Find out how much it will cost me to keep her here beyond her contract. Draw me up at least an 18 month one, to keep her interested. Give her access to prototype vehicles and weapons, and Top-Secret clearance. If that doesn't buy her... send her to me.
-He grins wolfishly-
One mercenary to another, I am quite certain an arrangement can be made. Involving you, and a few years of serfdom.
-Armok toys with his ComLink-
As to the first interview, get Natalie here. Page her or escort her, either way.

AFR smiled. "I think I have enough to have her join us. I told her I loved her last night. It's a pretty decent incentive to stay close enough without much stress in business relations." He smirked. "Anything she may demand extra is of no consequence to your pocket... I already owe her a stock pile of explosives and could sat her want and need for destruction easily, I think." Then it was right to business. "Alright. Let's get this ball a rollin' then." He grabbed the comlink. "Hello. Natalie... are you there, dear?" He waited for the response. Then would go to escort her to the main office.

Natalie jumped at the sound of AFR's voice. She still was not used to the comlink.
"Hello? Yes, I am here. Whats up?"

-Armok rises, standing behind his desk at military attention-
First impressions, right?
-He chuckles at AFR, then waits for the newbie-

AFR smiled at Armok. "Of course. Hell... at least you aren't covered in the blood and guts of a few different demonic underlord like you were for my initiation."
His attention turned back to the com link. "Hey, Natalie. Remember the leader I told you about? Well he'd like to meet up with you. Are you ready?"

-Armok chuckles-
That can be remedied. I'm sure there are a few lurking archfiends on the premises.

Natalie blinked, and brushed a few leaves off of her as she stood.
"Of Course AFR, in what direction should I head?"
She had just gotten used to the temporary base, and now she had to learn the layout of a whole new one. >.<

AFR laughed with Armok. "Nothing says "welcome, I'm your new boss" like a necktie made out of small intestine."
Then back to Natalie. "No need dear... just wait right where you are... I have you on lock from my GPS and will be there in about 8 seconds." He nodded to Armok before disappearing via teleporter. Then appearing at Natalie's side. "Hello ^^" He smiled. "Alright... take my hand, we'll go straight to the office."

Natalie jumped at his appearance, then took his hand and grinned.
"Teleportation, thats nifty!"

He smiled. "At least somebody notices ^^" He entered the required specs and the two appeared before Armok in another 10 seconds. He began. "Natalie, may I present Lord Armok Everhate, Leader of all standing forces of and affiliated with the Shadow clan and King of Darkmoor. From here I will have him catch you up on things." He stepped aside.

-Armok nods his head respectfully to Natalie, then gestures for her to take a seat-
Please, this won't take long.
-He too takes a seat-
I am, as my second mentioned, Armok Everhate, Lord of the Shadow Clan. I understand you are... disoriented. This is Darkmoor, the finest country on the planet if I do say so myself.
-Armok toys with the pieces of the obsidian dagger, watching her-
Tell me about yourself.

Natalie did an awkward little curtsy before sitting down. She took a deep breath.
"Well, Sir, as you know, my name is Natalie Aranio. I believe I have amnesia, because I have no memory of my time before I met AFR. I have certain special skills, powers I suppose they would be called, which are the control of each of the four elements, Earth, Air, Water, and Fire."

-Armok nods his head-
An elemental. Your kind... seem to blossom... during times of great strife on Earth. I've met seven of you in eight hundred years.
-He reaches into his desk, then sets a Shadow Clan insignia on the desk-
This is yours, if you wish to have it. The Forest of Shadows could use one of your kind. Tanor's taint left a swathe through the woods that might never heal completely. And beyond that, the ranks have been... significantly thinned by the recent strife the world has survived.

Natalie blushed a little, and smiled, surprised at the welcome he offered. She picked up the insignia and attached it to her blouse.
"Thank you, Armok, I fully accept your offer, and am proud to be counted among the ranks of the Shadow Clan. I promise to do as much as I possibly can to help restore your forest."

-Armok nods his head, then stands. He offers her his hand-
Then, Natalie Aranio, welcome to the Shadow Clan. Your chambers are attuned to your ComLink--- It will show you where it is. That said, you are free to wander as you desire, and you can modify your chambers as well.
-After shaking her hand, he sits back down and goes to his reports-

Natalie took his hand and smiled warmly. She nodded and excused herself to go find her room. =D

Natalie found her room, and sighed excitedly. The Holopad appeared before her and she excitedly started requesting items. Her room would be like walking into a nighttime garden. There would be vines of moon flowers and other such plants covering the walls, with a grass and moss floor. The ceiling would have little lights to replicate the stars of the nighttime sky. Her bed, desk, and easel would be the only 'normal' pieces in the room. She may have gone overboad, but hey, the Shadow Clan could afford it. =D
