Jellica steps forward, and while being marginally shorter than Karunax, in an almost comical way, her domineering personality and aura makes it seem far more equal. "Run away? Darling, you mistake my intentions. I am not Inharax, or that whelp, Toxica. I do not run away from things." She narrows her eyes. "Do not attempt to threaten me Karunax, or you will find very quickly how much of a mistake that is." She sneers.
Jellica might as well be stepping up to a massive wall.
"It's not a threat. It's a promise."
She basically is, and it's again, comically the comparison to heights.
"A promise you will be breaking, should you attempt."
"Disrespectful maggot!" Zenila snarls, vines growing around Magzus and shredding up his armor due to the thorns, which are, lovely, poison coated. "I may utterly despise Jellica,"
"Gee, thanks." Jellica dryly retorts.
"But she is right about one thing,"
"Surprising." Astrona snorts.
"This Toa is disrespectful, and needs to learn control and discipline!"
Magzus burns the vines before they even hit him. "Charix? Now may I?!"
The vines don't seem to particularly care, and still shred him up. Morbuzakkh Vines, lovely!

Unlike Jellica, Karunax isn't a playing a game of who's taller. He grins and steps even closer, leaving only a couple inches between them, eyes locked solidly on hers. He rumbles quietly,
"Well look. At. You."
Chuckling, he steps away and looks around at everyone gathered.
"Let me be crystal clear: that goes for all of you... a promise is a promise. No second chances this time. Not for anyone. Make a wrong move, and I will personally shut you down. And don't think for even a second that you'll escape. You won't."

OOC: Nulled. You didn't say Morbuzakh Vines. You said I quote. 'vines with Poison Coated thorns' Don't go changing what you did now.
Charix, secretly infuriated by this, uses magnetism to cause the vines around Magzus, if not burned up, to become repelled from Magzus's form, and fall away from him harmlessly.
Charix darts a stern gaze at Zenila and speaks harshly. "What is this?! If you can't respect Magzus's right to exist, then respect this; he is my personal agent and Hagah. Cease."
Charix swiftly moves his gaze to Jellica, trading harshness for a serious, guarded tone. "And you realize you, sister, are questioning authority? Are you wanting to turn a scene of consolidation into a scene of tension? You have serious concerns? Voice them, and give your reasons for why you know better. Or would you rather we all enforce our opinions by tearing each other apart?"

Charix lets his gaze drift towards Karunax, a slight smile creeping across his mask.
He addresses everyone with a smooth, authoritative tone.
"And with this regrettably necessary interaction finished. I suggest we move on to greater matters. Karunax. We have several options available to us. Zenila can locate Destral due to the massive plant growth we organized there earlier. We could attack it any time, although we do risk forcing Inharax's armies out of hiding and launching a prolonged war. Second, we could proceed with a campaign I was posed to launch to regain Atero-Nui. This action would gain us prestige among the Atero-Guard, as well as allowing us to establish a strong presence in that city. Thirdly, we could press the attack on Zurakia and bring resolution to that situation. Of course, we could also simply bid our time and avoid overextending ourselves. We could select a main fortress of operations, and seek an increase of our armies and influence."

As if things could not get any worse, a pair of FSS Kopen Gunships are seen on the horizon. They rapidly close the ground between themselves and the cliffs.

Xaia glances over. "Oh great, now the police is here..."
As if things could not get any worse, a pair of FSS Kopen Gunships are seen on the horizon. They rapidly close the ground between themselves and the cliffs.
The Rahkshi of Rahi Control flies out to greet them, bringing various rahi out to supplement it's two energy hounds. Of note are two Muaka, a Kane-ra, and a flock of assorted giant flying rahi. The rahi make no threatening motion towards the FSS. Once it is within earshot, it speaks. "Why do you approach this meeting of Makuta with such armament?"

"Second and last. With your forces pressed against Zurakia's, we're not in the position to challenge Inharax's power. There are three courses of action that I would like to approach: reclaiming Atero-Nui, obtaining a defensible fortress, and Inharax. Atero-Nui could very well serve as a proper base of operations if we play our cards right, and before we make any big moves against Inharax, I want to reach out to him. I want to know where he stands and why."

Karunax lifts his attention away from the group to watch the gunships approach.
She basically is, and it's again, comically the comparison to heights.

Jellica isn't either, it's just something funny YJF likes to point out
Jellica snorts. "Well isn't that quaint. Attempting to cow us, with threats?"
OOC: Nulled. You didn't say Morbuzakh Vines. You said I quote. 'vines with Poison Coated thorns' Don't go changing what you did now.

The vines are thus propelled. Zenila doesn't answer Charix, but one look in her eyes tells everything: She wants blood. She doesn't care from who, but she wants it. Now.
Jellica smirks. "An authority which hasn't been seen in a while, dearest brother. Yes, I have a serious concern," her face is now serious. "You are bowing down to the whims of the Toa. When have we EVER bowed down? We once dominated everything. We ruled, and then treason became the newest fashion trend. Inharax usurped our glorious leader, who hadn't the spine nor the brain to put that insect down in his place." She sneers at Karunax. "When he easily could've. What is to say the same, exact, Tren Krom forsaken thing won't happen yet again? It'll happen with Toa this time. And furthermore, I can hardly tell who is in charge here. Is it our lovely, brutish brother Karunax, or is it you, the toa-loving Charix? History repeats itself, Charix. So tell me, why should I throw my personal safety out the door for your 'brotherhood', when you are working with Ta-scum? With insolent maggots like this Toa?"
