Iuz makes his bargain...
The Torillian Senate gazes upon the image of Iuz in the midst of their petty squabbling… a tall ebon skinned human stands… “What is the meaning of this?!”
The image of Iuz’s face warps into that a delicate male fae with aquiline features and blood red eyes, “I am Iuz… perhaps you have heard of me… or my world… Oerth… a world your people nearly destroyed…”
The Torillian sneered, “That was an oversight… one that is easily fixable…”
“Oh really?” Iuz replied, “Perhaps you are aware that the forces of a world call Athas have mounted an assault against my world… and intend to destroy it and all vestige of life if their petty demands cannot be met…”
The senator shook his head, “You bore me with trivialities…”
Iuz laughed, “Well who am I… Iuz, Master of the Glowing Darkness to bore a Torillian… but perhaps… I shall not go into the details of their mastery of magic that more then equals your own… along with a keen understanding… of Psionics that nearly outstrips any force in the known universe…”
The Torillian leaned forward… “Now that I was unaware of…” murmurs in the background can be heard as other senators pondered the words of Iuz. The senator continued with a smug grin, “I hardly see what this has to do…”
Iuz replied sharply, “Do you truly believe they will stop with just Oerth… these people are conquerors… they eradicated whole species from their own world… and I think they will do so again… through the known multiverse… they are zealots… madmen… to the last… but brilliant and not to be underestimated…”
“So what do you want,” he spat the word out harshly, “Iuz.”
“I want to unite our powers… I have knowledge of the Athasians you will find invaluable… they have weaknesses we can exploit… and you have the power to allow me to exploit those weaknesses… we join together… it should be an easy matter to push them back…”
“Humph… and you seriously believe we would just say yes?”
“I believe that for the safety of your people you may have little choice… I offer you the bargain… I hold the key… and I shall present to you victory… Oerth is dying… you wish to rule it… then help me save it… and together it can be made whole once more…” Iuz replied his eyes burning with emotion…
“We must converse on this tidbit of knowledge, Great Iuz… we shall,” he sighed, “seriously consider your offer…”
With that the image of Iuz faded away… Iuz opened his eyes to find himself in Chorazin once more… Talindra looked down to his small form, “They shall think on it…”
Talindra nodded, “You have presented them with power… if they are ambitious they will take it…”
Iuz smiled, “We must be patient… Talindra…”
OOC: I choose the Eternal Empire of Toril just so you know...
