[Video][Open to all][The Return]

[megaton]

[He and his party have been returning for the last few days, a ragged, shaken group who are nevertheless still alive. They are survivors, and Megatron seems to take a sort of pride in that...walking tall and steady despite an obvious limp. A few blades are slung from his back like trophies, and one or two still have alien-looking hands attached at the hilt.]

I must admit concession to whoever told me it was folly to approach the badlands.

[Here he is. Returned. He wishes he could say it was a relief.]

You were right...

...but so was I.

[He tosses a blade down, letting it imbed in the safe soil at his feet.] Their numbers are greater than ours. If they should attack at full strength, I doubt we would last long.

So why do they not attack us yet?

[He smirks, but it's a bitter smirk.] I have a theory.

We may even be able to use it to our advantage.

Those who offered their support are welcome to this information. Those who did not? Well. We're all in this together, aren't we?

[It doesn't mean he's going to tell. Not right away.]

I'll be at the Hub if anyone wants to hear our stories. If there are any medics thinking about attending...you'll be needed.

[The ones who had come along had done amazingly given the lack of facilities and traveling circumstances, and more weren't going to hurt.]

You weren't too bad out there, I suppose I can allow you to become my vassal.

[Because that's totally what this was all about right]

[video]

[megaton]

To become your what?

[He could not have heard that right.]

[video]

[laharl]

My vassal. You should feel honored to have been selected by such a great Overlord as myself.

[video]

[megaton]

Your.

Vassal.

After fighting for years to free society from the notions of inherited rank and functionist class?

[That would be his engine growling. Loudly.]

No.

And if I catch you pursuing other 'vassals' for yourself, I will grind you into dust.

Hi hope you don't mind a threadjack to save a life

[eternallove]

Oh is Laharl trying to be your friend now too Mister Megatron? Demons are really weird in how they make friends. I'm still learning it as well.

[video]

[laharl]

You know, I kinda like you. I think you and I are gonna get along.

[video]

[megaton]

So long as there is no more talk of slavery, I believe I can manage to avoid smashing you.

[You did survive the trip after all.]

You said your name was Overlord?
