Mórrígan sat patiently. She could not see An Tiarna, as he was sitting beside her but she could sense his feeling like an fish out of water. The anticipation among the assembled crew also struck a cord. And it was at that moment she seized the reign most decisively
“If this was nothing more than some fantastic book.”
Eyes thinning swept over the assembled crew as smile grew on her face
“If that was all this was then we would close it, set it on a shelf and we are done.”
Taking a long pause she left the air dead with the prospect hanging in it limply
“But I say that the book is not yet finished.”
Shaking her head
“No. What I say is that you – each and every one of you – add another chapter to the tale of the Iron Fists.”
She sat back lighting a cigarette

Gid listening keenly as Morrigan spoke burst out enthusiastically
“We will!!!”
Alem’s warrior heart beating fast followed he up
“Aye!!!”
Shakk’s silent intensity spoke more than either of her sisters

Morrigan smiled at the enthusiastic response
“Indeed you will. Now this is how things will work.”
Head turning away
“Breen. Collins. You gents will do as always and keep the house in order."

Collins watched as the woman spoke, right foot on a chair, elbow on knee, chin on hand he listened. Collins had kept house for the IF for many a year and he always would. He nodded to Morrigan, then stood turning with to Breen

Breen had heard enough of the Old man's sermons from the mount to fill up a lifetime. The girl had learned a considerable amount, so Breen told his turning stomach as he popped a fistful of antacid capsules

The Old man watched the scene as the young woman spoke. This was what he wanted, what he had worked on for years. And he was happy at that success yet in many a way he was disappointed. He abruptly blurted out
-An Tiarna-
"The freakish natural cleanliness of this place probably has something to do with the name" |

Face tightening at the comment Morrigan's cheery smile was wiped off her face. Jaw dropping she stared straight ahead for a moment then retorted
"The name is Juvex not javex!"
Hand fumbling as she lit a cigarette the woman fast regaining her composure turned her attention away from family nonsense back to family business
"Luca. You have always been a most valued friend and will do as you always have."
The words were so simple and benign, some might even say endearing. But to one with any understanding of An Tiarna and Luca they were bone chilling. Morrigan's eye caught Brigid
"Bridgid... Deirdre and yourself will be staying here with us to start."
Both girls now in her sight
"And you will be aiding The Doctor."

Brigid stood alone in the backdrop quietly observing. At the mention of her name she perked up, bowing in acceptance of her assigned station but her gentle heart beat a few beats faster at two words: The Doctor. The man chilled her bones. Sucking the apprehension in her eyes searched out Deirdre

Deirdre returned Bridgid's smile then attention falling on Morrigan offered a bow and quiet thank you
"Go raibh maith agat."

The Doctor observed the whole affair as if watching a group of rats in a laboratory setting. His disinterested scrutinization changed at the mention of his name. The girls would make most helpful subjects indeed

Moving on hurriedly on with her address
"Ciarán Dubh & Laoch Bán, you’ll be of great use here with us for the time being."
Catching the Zabrack girls in her eyes
"Bez and Doz Zabrak you the same, just don’t become too comfortable playing home bodies."
Nodding at the magnificent centaur then the pair of young Togruta
“Epona, Aranrhod and Rhiannon the same yourselves.”
The turning to Gid and her sisters, eyes meeting those of Gid
“You girls will be the first off from the starting gate...."
At last her attention fell on the Seanchaí
“Torna… you will carry on with your art….”
Clapping her hands she ceased speaking

Gid, Alem and Shaking hanging onto every word were so caught up in Mórrígan’s reference to them opening up the show they heard nothing of the rest. Gid responded abruptly
-Gid-
“You mean we kick this off with an adventure!?!
Alem’s sinewy muscles flexed as she focued on the coming answer. Shakk gave her undivided attention to Mórrígan

Mórrígan took in their response as if a slap across the face; they were so innocent and did not grasp how insular things could so often be. Her sadness revealed itself only inwardly and she did not wish to discourage such youthful enthusiasm but nonetheless warned
-Mórrígan-
“Don’t be too enthusiastic, you may find that this wide universe is quite a cold closed and unwelcoming place.”

Luca sat watching. The girl was presenting herself well. He toyed with a pistol, looking up from it occasionally but catching more with his ears than eyes. Eyes could play tricks on you, so he believed and lived on that logic. He was no fool of course and as consequence casually kept a keen eye on all around them

An Tiarna sat watching, cigarette in right hand, bottle in the left. A white wolfhound with red ears herded a horse of the same shocking color away from the rest and over to where he sat. When Mórrígan mentioned the Twi'leck girls the Old man spoke
-An Tiarna-
"They should go on a Fenian quest... see how things lie out there...." |

Listening After giving the suggestion some time for thoughtful consideration Mórrígan responded without turning towards him
"That's a wonderful suggestion."
Then pointing out the blatantly transparent
"And why I suggested just that."
There was no harsh tone in her words simply assertion. She looked to the triplets
"A simple turn about and see how things stand."
She sat waiting

Gid smiled as Alem, picked her nails, rose her head up eyes alight with fiery anticipation but it was Shakk who responded fast and blunt
"We are so down with that!"
So excited the girl was that she unintentionally pulled the trigger of the revolver she was playing with. The bullet scarcely missed greasing An Tiarna, all but splitting his hair as it passed by

The Old man listened to Mórrígan talk. She was holding herself exactly as he desired that she could so many years ago and all through her training. The enthusiasm of the Twi'leck three impressed him as well. He added
"They can take my Lambda-class T-4a shuttle."
Head turning a slight to Mórrígan
"I would like it if Ciarán & Laoch took care of some family business....."
The term 'business' among the Dubh carried a certain meaning most knew, some to well but they were no longer breathing

Ciarán Dubh & Laoch Bán both reacted. Ciaran's head cocked to the right, lips tightened and eyes narrowed. Laoch with a grin spoke
"We're down Dadieo.... What you want us to do?"
Ciaran's eyes fixed on An Tiarna, as did those of the waiting Laoch

An Tiarna smiled and the instant reaction was to speak but he held his tongue. He had plans - schemes. But right now was the time to suggest and offer counsel not to dictate. So he remained silent. Nor did he once turn his attention left or right just keeping his eyes on the men. The massive canine herding the stock was his own CúFaoil, a force sensitive beast. The dog came and sat by his side and a saddled horse sauntered over standing behind them. Subconsciously he reached out a giant hand and caressed the mammoth creatures head for a second. The Old man's dilapidated Astromech droid,Bucket o’ Bolts, an R2 unit that ran on alcohol also rolled over
