“I don’t care what the hell that cunt says; it’s not fucking happening.”
“My god,” Azeld-Nexev Xlo gasped. “You realize you’re talking about -”
“I don’t give a flying fuck who I’m talking about. This is disgraceful. This is unacceptable.”
“That kind of talk is treason!”
“No, Kev, what they did was treasonous.” Drolx-Dalox Aka, Qusmi Bez, was livid. “They’re trying to bring down the government of Qusmo & take power for their fucking self. That’s called a coup, goddamnit, & if they were anyone else in this country, they’d be given a life sentence. So cut your bullshit; I don’t give a damn about niceties, not after that display.” A hush fell over the room. “Damnit, somebody fucking say something!”
“My Qusmi Bez, I know you’re upset -”
“Damn right,” Aka interrupted.
Welar-Linot Ono ignored the outburst. “But you have to stay calm. We can work through this. We can turn this around & use it to our advantage. We can emerge even stronger than before. But we need to stay calm & stay the course; it’s a delicate needle to thread, & we need to do it right.”
Aka paused. “Yes. Yes, you’re right. We can do this. We can get that bastard.” They then turned around, & they suddenly noticed that Frolt-Ralox Kev looked quite pale. “Kev, what’s wrong? You look like you’ve seen a ghost.”
“What - what are you planning to do?” Kev stammered.
Aka smiled. “I’m going to bring down the Qastyry.”
