<p class="calliope-dead">JADE: i see him.</p>
<p class="aradia">ARADIA: ooh is it the prince</p>
<p class="sollux">SOLLUX: fucking finally.</p>
<p class="calliope-dead">JADE: no.</p>
<p class="aradia">ARADIA: :/</p>
</div>
<p class="no-indent">Calliope animates the puppet body she
inhabits, the same one that has not aged a day since it crashed
here, and rouses it from perfect, corpse-like stillness. Dead-Jade
unfolds from her meditation pose and pushes to her feet in an
elegant sweep.</p>
<div class="chat type-rg type-hs-small">
<p class="calliope-dead">JADE: it is the one i have been waiting
for all these years.</p>
<p class="calliope-dead">JADE: we have run along parallel lines for
what may as well be eternity, but my gravitational well has finally
ensnared him.</p>
<p class="calliope-dead">JADE: and now he is due to fall into this
world.</p>
</div>
<p class="no-indent">Dead-Jade folds her hands behind her as she
rises into the air, body language delicate, purposeful. Aradia
hitches her arm around Solluxs back to lift him up, and follows
Jades body out into the open air. She casts her pitch-black eyes
down to watch the dark clouds of battle beginning to form above the
Human Capital below. Sollux frowns.</p>
<div class="chat type-rg type-hs-small">
<p class="sollux">SOLLUX: are y0u sure y0u want t0 g0 d0wn there?
it seems like its ab0ut t0 get wild.</p>
<p class="calliope-dead">JADE: yes. more than you can possibly
imagine.</p>
<p class="calliope-dead">JADE: the chaos war is about to begin, and
our window of opportunity is narrow.</p>
<p class="calliope-dead">JADE: we must be there when he falls.</p>
<p class="calliope-dead">JADE: come with me.</p>
