Subject: Lady Embyr
In reply to: Senator Decius 's message, "Shall we be going, Embyr?" on 02:21:44 12/19/01 Wed

"...the sooner, the better. These old optics of mine grow weary and the lights in the Meeting Hall are dreadfully bright to my recollection."

The weathered female seeker pulled a visor from her chest compartment, and affixed it to her face. Decius, seeing how such a necessary action shamed her, respected her honor and averted his eyes until he heard it snap into place. With a whir of servos, her hover chair moved toward the door, where her fellow senator stepped outside giving her room. Rotating back toward the door, her rusted fingers tapped a sequence of letters and numbers into the door panel. Her room sealed and a shimmering forcefield blazed into view for a second as it activated.

"A little something I picked up while taking apart an Autobot off-road vehicle. He was a tough one and put up a good fight, escaping us in the end. An honorable opponent, but I learned a thing or two while I had him at my mercy.

Learning. Honor. Mercy. Foreign concepts now. Now I sit in this chair, and spend the better part of my days talking. I wonder, if my wings fall off whilst I still function, do you think they'll mount it on the wall here? Do you think anyone will even remember or care about Lady Embyr? But I do sound bitter, moreso than I intend. Forgive me Decius, forgive my momentary weakness. 'Neither before foes nor each other.' Or something to that effect. There are many credos from the old war floating around my datatracks. Chances are I'll be misquoted in my posthumous techspecs...

Let us go see what the persistent reptile has up his tail now, shall we?"

Decius beckoned Embyr go first and she drifted down toward the Meeting Hall, her chair's camera's giving her a clear view of him and the corridor behind her as they began their unavoidable journey...
