“I wouldn’t advise pissing off an entire race of people.”
Enetli glanced over at Cellica soon after making the comment. Enetli rarely interfered in such minor matters, but the First Galactic War had just finished about a decade ago. Even coming from such a chaotic race, Enetli disliked the conflict that seemed to occur so often. Cellica was no normal human - it was clear physically, and mentally. She was crafty and manipulative. And she desired conflict.
“Why, Enetli? I thought you didn’t care for our matters?” She gazes out into the endless reaches of space. The ship cruised through space, heading towards the Arkeot homeplanet. Earlier this week the Arkeots had made a threat to a smaller colony of the Terrans..so they sent Cellica and her fleet over to deal with it.
A poor mistake, in Enetli’s point of view.
“I would rather avoid pointless war.” Enetli admitted, and Cellica gave them a glance, her crimson eyes scanning the currently humanoid Eldritch.
“It is ironic you say that, considering you were the one who blinded the Thols after they stepped out of line. You also destroyed their civilizations, sending them years back in terms of technology.”
Cellica smelled the change in Enetli’s scent, a slight change, but one she could detect. The Eldritch walked to the side, hands together in front of themselves.
“That was billions of years ago. Let the past be forgotten.”
“If we do that, history will repeat itself.” Cellica was unable to keep the thin, teeth revealing smile from her face when the Eldritch turned to stare at her, even if they had no visible eyes. Enetli was hard to decipher, Eldritch were in general, but Cellica? She was different, just like Enetli noted. Able to pick out the smallest of details. It was why she was so feared during the war.
She knew she struck a nerve, even though the Eldritch currently possessed none in its current state.
“I’m going away for a few years again.” Enetli turned back around, their voice low. “If you piss off those Arkeots and start a conflict, you will start another war. And Fenh’im knows how long that’ll take.”
Again, she smiled. “I know.”
And with that, the Eldritch left Cellica alone in the room.
