*Scorm looks at you with a fierce look, he inspects you up and down and looks at you deeply in your eyes.*
*He'd then laugh hearty and hugged you*
Scorm: Aaaahh! Welcome, my first new General! Make yourself at home, my dear friend! We'll treat you with high rewards and all of that other special stuff... just help yourself to royal freedom as much as you do wish!"
*he'd walk away and after a few second Scorpio looks around in the darkness and sees you and runs up to you, whispering*
Scorpio: "Please... don't listen to him, i beg of you! He's actually an corrupt monarch, sure he's my father and all... but... just please don't listen to him! He's evil! It's better to listen to me and my mother instead of him! I have a feeling this is a good start to create a Democracy..."
Scorpix stands silently before saying: "Good and evil are terms one assigns to himself and his enemies. While one side of a conflict would consider the opposing side evil, the opposing side would believe the opposite."
*He pats Scorpio on the shoulder.*
"Remember this, Prince Scorpio. It might change the way you see things."
*He then walks toward a dining area filled with exotic Outland foods."
*Scorpio sputters and runs towards him to catch up.*
Scorpio: "B-but s-sir Scorpix! M-my f-fathers evil! D-don't trust him! H-he'll k-kill us-" *he'd then gasp as Queen Scorpia was actually in the same room along with Scortica, Scorpio's uncle. Both looking a bit surprised... but knew what was going on...-
Scorpia: "...P-pardon us? Oh, you must be one of the new generals... what is your name, sire?" -she said holding out her hand for shaking...-
-Scortica cackled and pointed some weird gadget at Scorpix that scanned his face-
Scortica: (Did i mention he had an irish accent? ) "YEE HEE HEE!!! Oh ye ought-ta be a proud general! aye see you got what it takes from ere to blarney! But ye still gotta answer to Scorpio and ol' Scorpia!" -He winked...-

Scorpix grins, showing his sharp pincers, and holds out his hand.

Scorpix grins, showing his sharp pincers, and holds out his hand.
"General Scorpix, your highness."
*Scorpia shakes it kindly and grins...*
Scorpia: "Queen Scorpia... your superior. ...And i think you've met my son already." -She smiles kindly, looking at Scorpio.-
Scorpio: "Heh heh... y-yes, i did meet our newest general... heh heh... yeah..." -He said, looking a bit shy, feeling guilty of telling Scorpix that his father was evil...-
Scortica: "Aye! General Scorpix! Mind if ye want a tour of the Aperture Mesa testing facility?!" -He shouted, looking over-pleased to do so.-
-Scorpio thought about the letter for a while, before replying to the lion that gave it to him...-
Scorpio: "...But... My Uncle is making it good with his own secret company, sure it isn't as advanced as it is, but he's trying to make it so.... He calls it "Aperture Mesa". A top-secret... well, it ain't so top-secret anymore i guess since i'm telling you this but... it's a Research Facility of multiple things that are being tested, conducted, experimented and created, like mobile portal technologys, special gels of mobility, military androids that have sentient thinking and always lament you if you deactivate them, Zero Point Energy Manipulators AKA Gravity Guns, Anti-mass spectrometers, Extra-dimensional Travel and those are just their major projects they would be working on! The minor ones they are doing are, radiation, rocketry, theoretical physics, lasers, experimental propulsion, hydraulics, robotics, hydroelectricity, genetics, zoology, applied mathematics, and a very wide spectrum of research into chemistry and all manner of physics research... Well... at least what my uncle dreams in, anyways... oddly enough, my uncle nicknames himself "Dr. Johnson Breen" and all the other engineers and blacksmiths agree with that... but i don't think he's crazy."
(OOC: This is Aperture Mesa's insignia. also, props if you get the references. )
-He'd then think about it even more-
Scorpio: "...A-are you sure i should show this to my uncle? I hope Aperture Mesa can compete with you guys and not out-do you... heck, should i show this to my father as well?" -He'd question, looking a bit worried...-
Scorpio: "Also... i-i don't want my father g-gone for g-good... i-i still somewhat love him, but still resent him on how he's running our tribe... Scorpia, my mother and "The Forgotten" of the Scorpions would love to hear this... but uh-..." -He'd trailed off and stopped abruptly, looking at the lion with more worry...-
OOC: Aperature science Black Mesa, Half life series. Also out of the things you mentioned, I think none would pass through FAC (the emboldened part) Also please stop giving away jammer conversations
{JAMMERS! -Scorpians- ONLY!} We just need you to become a democracy, as I said you could fake the votes, we need to make your tribe look amazing to encourage anti-monarchists to rise, its our main goal. I think President Scorpio, just rolls of the tongue

(OOC: Then blame the Moderation system! Why blame me!? )
{JAMMERS! -The Lion- ONLY!} Scorpio: Well... i guess i'll try and coax one of our newest generals we found. I'll do my best to try and succeed with this plan... I-I hope we get something great i-in return i guess... right?"
Scorpix grins, showing his sharp pincers, and holds out his hand.
"General Scorpix, your highness."
*Scorpia shakes it kindly and grins...*
Scorpia: "Queen Scorpia... your superior. ...And i think you've met my son already." -She smiles kindly, looking at Scorpio.-

Scortica: "Aye! General Scorpix! Mind if ye want a tour of the Aperture Mesa testing facility?!" -He shouted, looking over-pleased to do so.-
Scorpix: "I do not believe I've yet heard of Aperture Mesa, sir. Of course, I only evolved a couple months ago, but I suppose a lot can happen in a new tribe like this. I would indeed be inclined to take a tour of this Aperture Mesa you speak of."
Scorpia: "Queen Scorpia... your superior. ...And i think you've met my son already." -She smiles kindly, looking at Scorpio.-

Scortica: "Aye! Tours cost somthin' so ye better pay fer it!" -he says, holding out his hand open for said money...-
Scorpio: "Uncle... i haven't see the research facility as well... may i come with General Scorpix?" -He asked, his tail curling up in curiosity...-
Scortica: "Why not, my lil' ol' nephew? Theres always room for more on the facility's Tram System!" -He grinned in glee.-
Scorpia: "Well... you three have fun... i think Scorm needs me with somthing..." -She arose from her seat and robotically left the room with urgency...-
{JAMMERS! -The Lion- ONLY!} Scorpio: Well... i guess i'll try and coax one of our newest generals we found. I'll do my best to try and succeed with this plan... I-I hope we get something great i-in return i guess... right?"

{JAMMERS! -the lion- ONLY!} Scorpio: "I guess its a d-deal?! So then my primary directive is to overthrow m-my father?" -He said, his tail curling up in fear...-
Scorpix: "I do not believe I've yet heard of Aperture Mesa, sir. Of course, I only evolved a couple months ago, but I suppose a lot can happen in a new tribe like this. I would indeed be inclined to take a tour of this Aperture Mesa you speak of."

Scorpia: "Well... you three have fun... i think Scorm needs me with somthing..." -She arose from her seat and robotically left the room with urgency...-
Scorpix: "Hmm...what is used for currency in our new tribe?"
Scortica: "Aye! Tours cost somthin' so ye better pay fer it!" -he says, holding out his hand open for said money...-

Scorpix: "Hmm...what is used for currency in our new tribe?"
Scortica: "Oh don't ye know that we use standard in gold silver and copper!?" -he scoffs, growling...-
Scorpio: "Excuse the Rudeness of my uncle, general..."
{JAMMERS! -the lion- ONLY!} Scorpio: "I guess its a d-deal?! So then my primary directive is to overthrow m-my father?" -He said, his tail curling up in fear...-
{JAMMERS! -the lion- ONLY!} Scorpio: "I guess its a d-deal?! So then my primary directive is to overthrow m-my father?" -He said, his tail curling up in fear...-
*The lion leaves*
Scorpio: "W-well that was a bit rude... but... The Forgotten are in these "Iron Mountains" of sorts trying to get another monarch to take down our king..." -He said, looking at his father's castle, trembling slightly in fear...-
Scorpio: "W-well... if i can do this if The Forgotten are away... then... at least my Mother, Uncle and a general i befriended... i-i hope i can also get the peasantry to revolt as well..." -He said, looking at small little hamlets and towns in the internal cliffs and precipces. All of them, smoggy, dark and gloomy.-
Scorpio: "I-If i can get other heirs to revolt against their kings and queens... i'll consider myself a president of the outlands and give the other tribe heirs full power as well, rule as three leaders!"
Scortica: "Oh don't ye know that we use standard in gold silver and copper!?" -he scoffs, growling...-
Scorpio: "Excuse the Rudeness of my uncle, general..."
Scorpix: "Oh, well I have plenty of gold. Now that I know it is used as currency, I will of course use it to pay for this tour you speak of."
Scortica: "Ah hah ha! I thank thee!" -he takes the payment and grins, allowing us to follow him to an rail suspended by the ceiling of the cave, Scortica pressed a button and a harmonic tone sounded. A few seconds later, a little monorail tram appeared and automatically opened it's door and we all entered.-
Scorpio: "I-I hope nothing bad happens here, U-uncle..." -The prince said, shyly curling his tail around Scortica... the uncle laughed and held him close to him, lovingly-
-The tram's PA system made a tone and a seemingly robotic voice with low pitch was heard.-
Tram PA VOX: "Hello. The Automatic Diagnostic and Announcement System welcomes you to the Aperture Mesa Research Facility."
-Another voice, although seemingly sounding more organic, was head, this time it sounded like a Female-
Tram PA VOX #2: "Good morning, and welcome to the Aperture Mesa Transit system. this automated tram is provided for the security and convenience of Aperture Mesa Research Personnel. The Time is: 8:47 AM. Current Outland Temperature is 96 degrees with a estimated high of: 105 degrees. The Aperture Mesa Compound in these Scorpion Caverns is maintained at a pleasant 68 degrees Fahrenheit at all times."
-it'll be a little while until the voice started speaking again... The places we passed by were some cargo loading bay with another tram going through it on a bottom-rail with rooms in the rock-faces somewhat like 20 meters away from us and a Scorpion-Tank Hanger which was crawling around with engineers and inspectors so far.-
Scortica: "Yea, traveling these caves can get pretty lonely if you don't have a friend with you along with you for the ride."
) "YEE HEE HEE!!! Oh ye ought-ta be a proud general! aye see you got what it takes from ere to blarney! But ye still gotta answer to Scorpio and ol' Scorpia!" -He winked...-
