"I'm looking for parts, parts to a machine I'm trying to build. I can't tell you what it's for or why I need it, but I will provide you with some compensation for your help, if you are interested."
His ghost decided to chime in with his usually monotone mental transmissions. [i]Fallen. Rogue. Wise?[/i] it inquired of its Guardian, but he was not to be deterred.
"Name your price."
(Note: Unless explicitly stated otherwise, the ghost never talks to anyone other than Sigma. Additionally, it is never out loud, so a character cannot respond to it unless they have mind reading powers or something.)

-
"There are always things that one will not give, but that is why we must negotiate. Now, what is it that you want?" Sigma insists. His impatience was growing, but he hid it well.
-
"Hmm it depends on the materials"
-
"What I need," Sigma explains, "is a high quality shock core, a Fallen navigational program, and the ether synthesizer from an inoperable servitor. I'm sure you have the means, so now I must know what it will take to get you to act."
-
[i]He makes a small noize like a laugh[/i] "I will get you neither of these and even if I would what would you need with Ether"
-
"The ether is for you, if you play your cards right," Sigma continues, " all I need is that powerful arc source and Fallen navigational data, and I can finish my project. I have my device, you have as much ether as you could want. Win-win." He awaits the response from this creature, with the hope that the allure of ether will draw him in.

-
"The House of Kings," Sigma declares. The House of Kings are a powerful and secretive Fallen house, so much so that he had to get outside help in order to do as little as find the data, much less steal it from the Kings. Hence, why he is negotiating with what is supposed to be an enemy.

"You sure are weird. But I won't do this for you your offering to little"

Edited by cry_w: 10/22/2015 5:11:25 PM(I'm approved now. It can continue.) "Too little?" Sigma said, confused, "I don't really understand. Maybe if you made some sort of request, I could get a better idea of what you want."
-
"You ask me to steal from the reigning house how would that play out for me" [i]He seems to think of something for a second[/i] "Get me passage to the city"
-
"Is that all? I can figure something out," Sigma says, "the hardest part will be figuring out how to hide those extra arms of yours. So, do we have a deal?"
-
[i]The fallen seems to think for a couple seconds more[/i] "We have a deal" [i]He extends one of his arms[/i]
-
Sigma grips the outstretched alien hand, and shakes it firmly, sealing the deal. "Now then, shall we get started?" *some time passes*
-
[i]They sit at an abandoned dock for a ship[/i] "This is king base they will have navagational data here" [i]He pulls out his wire rifle[/i]
-
"Alright then," Sigma responds, scoping out the scene below as his ghost relays his words to his Fallen companion. Despite his new ally's words, the dock appears abandoned. "Do you happen to know where the entrance is?" Just then, he could here a group of Fallen heading in their direction. He hid behind some crates and watched as they passed. Based on the colors and their markings, it seems that these were the Kings. "I guess they'll have the answer."
-
"Just watch guardian" [i]The fallen put's on strange never before seen house banners as he walks in front of them and the kings stop and bow and he says something in elinski and he starts walking with them[/i]
-
"How did you do that?" says Sigma, bewildered that they accepted him so easily. His ghost seems similarly puzzled, signaled by the usual one word. [i]Curious...[/i]
-
"Follow human" [i]The fallen motions for him to follow[/i]
-
Sigma, despite the voice that told him to be cautious, began to follow his Fallen companion and the group he was with. He continued to remain hidden, since he figured that the Kings wouldn't take kindly to a Guardian at their doorstep.
-
[i]After several minutes they arrive at an out of the way tunnel that they enter and you see a baron and he and the fallen start speaking elinski[/i]
-
Edited by cry_w: 10/22/2015 11:41:50 PMThey seem to have reached a Fallen captain, who is distracted speaking to his fellow Kings in their native tongue. He then notices the strange new Eliksni in the room. He begins to approach as the Sigma watch silently from the shadows.
-
[i]He notices the Fallen banners and he bows down. As the Elinski pulls out two strange gloves and says something which they agree upon and then he grabs some ether and produces a strange light as he bottles up and given a data disk. He then turns to leave[/i]
