"We don't need to hammer out the details here, this situation." Says Edwardo as he waves his hand in front of his face. "Assuming we end up with the ship, the reward and trade profits, this is turning out to be a good outcome."

OOC: I'm not planning on playing out the entire interrogation for any of you. :)

IC: One by one you are escorted from the lounge by polite, but well armed Marines to interview rooms. The interrogators are polite, but business like. They take each of you through events beginning when you met, or were contacted by, Lady Jane right up to the point you entered jump leaving Ruie. You are asked to elaborate on The Luzon and whether you found any connection with the Ine Givar.

When Sigrun enters the interrogation room she is greeted by a representative of the Sword World's Confederation. Jarl Karl Lungren is the sole occupant of the interview room and shows Sigrun his credentials, both physical and after lowering the cone of silence verbally.

He says, "In this instance the Confederation orders you to be perfectly honest with the Imperials. There is some reason to think the Ine Givar are involved somehow and they are no friends of the Sword Worlds than they are of the Imperials."

"I can remain throughout your interview if you wish."he says, adding "You have the protection of the Consulate while you are here on Regina, all you have to do is call and someone will come to your aid."

The rest have no outside assistance, but are treated well.

There are two rounds of interviews for some of you, but by the end of the day, Imperial Naval Intelligence appears to be through with you. You are all back in the lounge when Lord William walks in.

"Hello again!" he says with a grin, "I have transportation outside to take you to Billinsingham where Lady Jane awaits. Oh, and the head of LSP is going to be there, too. It seems some of you have some sort of arrangement with them. In any case, we want to settle up with you all and thank you in person for getting me free from those nutcases."

Carlos also stands. "Seems like it, m'dear. Possibly tomorrow for lunch? We could make a day of it after some shopping, provided we find a decent place to doss for the night." He looks at Lord William. "Sorry to have gotten you persona non grata on Ruie, but..." He spreads his hands and grins lopsidedly before putting his arm around Zaki's waist again.

Sigrun respectfully (and very gratefully!) greets Jarl Lungren slipping straight into Old Norse to tell her tale. She tells him “I strongly believe the Ine Givar were involved on Ruie. The entire operation seemed so provocative to the Imperium that either its success or even destruction by Imperial retaliation served their aims”.

She goes on “I have been recalling things with the help of … a friend”.

She seems to surprise herself at this last and smiles before continuing “I believe the Ine Givar were influencing the actions of my unit during the last war - again more provocation to incite retaliation and escalate the conflict. I fought a duel to end it”.

She asks him to remain for the interview and cooperates fully giving her candid professional opinion when asked.

She seems greatly relieved after the interview process and is delighted to see Lord William again. She whoops “Ha! Jarl William!” and strides straight across the room (over furniture if necessary) before looking him straight in the eye and delivering a crushing handshake followed up with a very macho (and therefore entirely chaste!) hug. She breaks away and jovially adds "You certainly smell better!" before adding "They were indeed bad people seemingly manipulated by even worse people. We did a good thing getting you all out".

She looks intrigued by the mention of Imperial corporations and cheerfully enters the transport provided.

"Works for me." He offers Zaki his arm. "Shall we, love?"

"No problem, it's a big universe with plenty of other planets I can go hunting on." Lord William grins, "Besides, I think I'll be staying home for the next few years with my wife and family."

Lord William returns the handshake and the hug patting Sigrun on the back, "You saved our bacon Ma'am and I'll never be able to thank you enough for it."

Sigrun and John Lee have never been to the Lord William's estate and as the transport flies in she can tell where the estate begins by the abrupt change in landscape from suburban to forest and then parkland. In the center of the parkland the transport lands next to a sprawling stone building that appears to have grown from a 3 story central section in three directions.

The entire group is escorted into a large room on the ground floor. The room is, at least, 20 meters square and is referred to as "the small sitting room." That leaves a question in everyone's mind as just how big must the large sitting room be. The room is furnished with several chairs and sofas. Tables are scattered around with expensive looking vases on them filled with flowers. Paintings decorate the walls and they look like they might be expensive, as do several statuettes on tables and across the mantle of a fireplace on one wall. The wall across from the entrance has double doors looking out on a patio and formal gardens.

Two men are in the room as you enter. An old man rises from a chair as you enter. Some of you recognize him as the Duke of Feathershuff (pronounced Fenshaw). The other man some of you recognize as the SubSector Head of the LSP Megacorp.

"Well, you pulled it off!" the LSP Head says with a grin, "I didn't think you'd find Lord William, much less get him out."

"I'm Keen Haber, by the way." he says to Sigrun and John Lee, "A friend of the family."

"Thank you all for bringing my son home." says the older man.

Sigrun smiles “I am Sigrun Volsung – warrior. Please call me Sigrun, Jarl William. Not all the work I have done could be described as good but in this case it was right – more than that”.

She looks Lord William in the eye “I owe you this truth. Jarl Lungren held the same suspicions that I formed during the operation – that the people holding you were involved with the Ine Givar movement. Bad people - I can surely say that none of you would have come home". Then Sigrun grins with a sudden, bright, and only slightly disturbing joy before continuing her tale “Now, as it happens, I owed these niðingrin* a blood debt so for me your rescue became holmgang – a death duel. I told you when we first met that we killed four to get to you and more than twenty went with the hut. I didn’t think it too many. Without Lady Jane’s rescue mission I would still be seeking my revenge. So, in fact, I owe you my gratitude!”

(* OOC: despicable honourless cowards)

The flight in and the dimensions of the estate buildings and rooms do exactly what they are designed to do to Sigrun. She stares a lot and her relaxed predatory grace seems to leave her as a bizarre paranoia tells her that she will somehow break the expensive things on display.

On noticing the human contents of the room she recovers her wits and greets the two men – robustly, of course, with a firm handshake for Haber but a much less crushing one for the older Fenshaw.

To Haber she replies “Admittedly there seemed little to go on but we are professionals and so we did good recon work. Mr Petamore is an excellent pilot and we were able to work with the guidelines of Ruian law to get our assault gear in. The Luzon were well supported by the locals and I believe that had made them a little too comfortable. They thought they were safe – we showed them otherwise”.

Sigrun appears to be most respectful towards the older man giving him a warm smile “Jarl Fenshaw, you are welcome! We rescued good folk from bad people. It was good work to do”.

Mr Petamore is an excellent pilot and we were able to work with the guidelines of Ruian law to get our assault gear in. The Luzon were well supported by the locals and I believe that had made them a little too comfortable. They thought they were safe – we showed them otherwise”.

Sigrun appears to be most respectful towards the older man giving him a warm smile “Jarl Fenshaw, you are welcome! We rescued good folk from bad people. It was good work to do”.
Carlos says, "And if the Navy has its head on, they'll check out those gas giant moons and stomp those Luzons still left. Even better if they call in the Joe-dannies to help them out."

Sigrun looks slightly pained "Well, if they do they should at least give us a finder's fee on those hulls. After all - we saw them first!"

She then muses "Although I believe a Fleet action solely by the Imperial Navy is going to be a propaganda win for the Luzon and their Ine Givar backers".
