Dev Shadows of Atrisia

[Junko Ike]

She was checking out some more areas of it though and from the outside of the palace was beautiful.. the kazue stone was polished and the palace sat against the mountain again with a waterfall that was created and terraced much like she had gotten on Shri-Tal. It had gemstones embedded in the stone that created dazzling displays of murals that from a distance looked like pictures of women around the palace. Statues in smaller alcoves that served as watcher statues created from the clay she had created The waters that were coming down on either side created a mist which obscured the main entrace but didn't cover it in water to ruin outfits. The cooling mist was nice in the islands heat.

She was walking down the entry way as arches overhead had plants on them... thousands of beautiful flowers with little birds making their homes. Handmaidens running around and making sure everything was good for her... servants who were ensuring it was clean as the doors opened to the main entryhall that was cavernous and filled with carpets, statues and a staircase that went up and divided to either side of it. There was sunken in seating with cushions, food served on platters to the guests who were sitting there and fanfare as Junko could hear all of the conversations stop once she entered. Eyes turnign towards her when she smiled and spoke. "Everythign is looking beautiful."

 

[Junko Ike]

THe others who were in there stayed for a moment and they bowed with smiles at the compliment. JUnko started walking again where she could look around at some of the statues and they were the ones she had created as well as stone guardians that were set up in alcoves. Paintings and jewels... thousands upon thousands of glittering jewels that were embedded in the walls. Aurodium piping around and she could see where small vents were in the walls. THey were not for air but heat from the geothermal vents and waters that were going through the walls. It was also in the floor which she could feel giving a nice comfortable sense of warmth.

JUnko was seeing more of the great hall first as it was filled with from the vaulted ceiling shifting pictures that moved around and changed to give everyone a new image that had been painted by anyone from renowned artists to common men and women who wanted to say thank you. She wasn't one to demand rewards but people did give them, the jedi saying they didn't accept them was foolish as some people seemed to get insulted if you didn't accept. So she had as well as went out of her way depending on the situation.. she 'bought' wares from merchants who had lost things... scrapped ships that were rebuilt in in a hanger somewhere... random bits and bobs.

 

[Junko Ike]

The hanger here though in the palace used their dimensional compression technology to shrink down the spare ships dozens of them, hundreds and even more that she had bought for charity auctions... ones that yeah she didn't really need but they were designed and made to be sold to benefit something. Nothing held a candle to her ship though... the upgraded palace of her ships was well just that and it was always on display for the others to see and visit. Still the massive maw that was the storage wing of the palace served there as she could see it outside of a window and she continued walking down the hall seeing on the other side one of the pools.

"Again." The voice came out and Junko stopped to look as the team that was out there stood in aurodium bikinis and had their hair back in tightly pulled ponytails. THe tips different colored as the only different part of it. THeir heights were largely the same and physique wise they were able bodied and muscled. THey would need to be as the team was a keijo team that worked here on the planet to represent Junko in games between the regions and cities. THey were practicing as the large pool had an island in the middle and the goal was to knock your opponent off using either their ample chest or butts with a combination of moves.

 

[Junko Ike]

Junko was watching them practice for the time though and well keijo was one of the many things.. there was also wrestling both types the entertainment model that they used an one that was all about grappling and holds. Where they would be able to better improve what they were doing. She didn't deny that the oil wrestling was a fun one... there might also be jello for entertainment purposes as she had several smaller things set up here with her own arena that could be used for any number of these sporting events.. to entertain the people of her island but also hold events among themselves. With the academy on the island that saw many being able to accept the brightest and strongest.

She stayed there for just a moment or two longer though and wasn't looking to stay for too long... she couldn't get distracted by the copious amounts of beautiful women in her palace.... there were a lot of men as well but she wasn't looking for a husband yet. "If you will look this way princess." Her handmaiden said pulling her away as JUnko gave a faux frown at having to leave the sight of them battling. Junko finally left as she was being taken away... "But bouncy." She said it pointing which got a laugh as her posture changed and they entered another chamber that had the screens filling it out. Silk and metal with murals sewn upon them.

 

[Junko Ike]

Junko still was enjoying many more of the things they showed off including her walk in closet which was less a closet.. one had to be clear about that... it was its own cargo hold complete with multi leveled areas of dresses and shoes. Fashionista droids who would oversee and maintain it as well as help her in general pick out and get dressed in whatever beautiful outfit she would need or could think about. THey even had a galactic database to gather fashion from around the galaxy and get it shipped here to her palace. Previous wardrobe choices were set up and designed for anyone to see like her galavision robe and what was going to be a second generation of the princess robes using the things they had in the galavision to increase the value exponentially.

She missed scherazade for that and the agents of chaos well they went out fo their way to help but had largely disappeared. Now Junko was looking at many of the things they had set up for interesting takes. She was able to see much much more though as the closet was protected by a number of guards and there were necklaces, earrings, rings, bodices, anklets.... any number of things for her to wear. Shoma if he saw her closet would scoff and make more jokes that her real skill was in shopping but they had a family that was older Atrisian money then few could understand and there was even more since everything continued to generate credits. Selling off the excessive food to other worlds or trading it was an impressive things for them as well.

 

[Junko Ike]

She was able to see a lot more as well.. her clothing was here and SHoma would be lost... most would be lost but Junko let one fo the droids take her kimono as she stood there on one of the rings to hover and get smaller drones bringing up different screens. She needed to look... refreshed though a shower would be nice and not one fo the sonic ones... with body wash and hot water... a luxury on most worlds now but everyone was able to get it with the new living modules it was just a question of if they wanted it... most did since growing food and being able to get anything they needed was invaluable. THey could still work for what they wanted.

JUnko resolved though as she spoke standing there as Min was standing with her for the moment. "We will continue this later for now.. I need to wash the stress off from the past couple of days." SHe said it with a look on her face though that was a grin.. it had been stressful traveling always but she needed to rush here and now that she was.. she was early there was little news coming to them and only some information. The news that SHoma and Ju Li had been attacked or at least the ship they were on and Shoma's message out to the galaxy about the sith.... interested her but she didn't hjave to handle much the lords and ladies were rather peaceful.

 

[Junko Ike]

Junko moved off of the platform with a look on her face. she would have to think about a couple of things for sure but as it went for now... she couldand would need to get cleaned up first as she walked into the large bath chamber. THe tub more akin to a small pond with steamed water coming up and the water was warm but not scolding hot. Perfectly temperature controlled and monitored in each area while handmaidens were in there with soap and body wash. Oils for her hair when she walked into the waters. She stood there and looked at the waters as her arms were lifted and hair combed. The slight tug on her hair as the tangles were worked out and it was smoothed with the oils being infused were minimal.

It didn't take that long and information was flowing to the display on the side of the wall to keep her informed. Mostly Junko was quiet but the sounds of her handmaidens as they were taking care of her was important. THis was like an onsen as most would see just indoors and artificial.... perfectly controlled if she was lucky before they were heading back into her closet. She was scrubbed clean and smooth... oiled and gleaming with the scent of a dozen different roses, honey and vanilla to intermingle herr bodies scents and Junko smiled when her outfit was there and ready for her the wooden geta along with a casual thin white kimono.

 

[Junko Ike]

She wore it while the massive closet was back to setting up outfits for her... Junko checking out a couple of the different areas when her hands wrapped around her chest and she stood there on the small hover platform. She was there looking at the one outfit that had been picked out for her to have casual wear... the skyblue kimono would be able to go over her white one and a haori outer cloak that bundled her up and would keep her warm normally but here was just for comfort. She had her hair slightly wet and it clung in one large braid behind her head as she was walking down towards the end of a secondary hallway. THe massive closet had two or three entrances for her to get into there.

THe hall ways she was in though was what led to her massive bedchamber... compared to her previous palace on Shri-Tal where it was large... this was massive. The hallways with two watterfalls on the side as the water cascaded and obscured the stone guardians that served to protect her. The cleaning droids made sure there was no water on the stone floor itself which shined from the high level of polish. Junko was loking at more of the things they had going on as she looked to the water that was there and it was a self contained system same with the one in the bathing chamber to have the effect... there was also fish in the waters to give a look of beauty.

 

[Junko Ike]

Junko was looking at more of the hallways and it was impressive in other ways.. the waterfalls on either side had small breaks in the alcoves for statues and figures from around the galaxy. Art shows were always a fun thing to go to. Then the large doors were in front of her that would open to her private chambers and it was inlaid with aurodium and gemstones... opulence was important but they showed a lot more as well when she checked out some parts of the door. The mural that was on it depicted her in a scene that made her feel heat in her cheeks and when she had told Phaidor to decorate the doors well she had not been that specific.

"Well Phaidor certainly is being cheeky isn't she?" She said it and raised an eyebrow for a moment as her handmaiden spoke looking at her. "Well yes but she said you would find it more amusing and the two of you are closer physically then the others princess." Junko shrugged in agreement though when she was checking it out. She opened the doors though and it went into the antechamber... her room needed to have one as it served liek a hub itself and she could see Phaidor working on the second set of doors that were opened for the moment and she offered a smile while Io was looking at Junko with her cheeks bright red.

 

[Junko Ike]

"Phaidor..." She said it looking at her as the dark skinned Atrisian rose up and looking at her had a grin on her face. "Yes Princess." She carefully chewed her lower lip.... batted her eye lashes all tactically sound in this situation and Junko knew it... Phaidor was made of sterner stuff then most would give her credit for so her playing innocent mean she was having fun. "I know you are having fun but please remember to keep it simple... we don't need elaborate images on doors of all places." She said it and Phaidor seemed to be thinking about it with a nod of her head before she spoke. "Maybe but you are much to cute when you are flushed with embarrassment princess."

Junko remained with her gaze on the woman and her eyes didn't need to look up and down her but just into her eyes as Phaidor was full of confidence about what she was doing and Junko bowed her head... "I suppose it cannot be helped I am one of the most beautiful on Atrisia yes... Not showing off this body would be one of the worst crimes." Everyone was agreeing with her and well Junko had an ego and they knew how to placate her... they knew how to play into it and here among themselves it wasn't as bad... she could use her vanity like armor and a shield compared to others who might be that vapid.... she knew Shoma at least laughed.

 

[Junko Ike]

JUnko stood in front of phaidor though and her smile remained for a moment looking her over and she moved forward wrapping her arms around her as she spoke. "Hmm I missed you." She had missed her in this and many of the others as they were all walking to the main doors going into her bed chamber... the doors inlaid with kazue stone and aurodium. Crystals and gemstones werre there as a kyber statue of her was on either side. The resemblence was there and she loved the artisans from the Jadeite who had worked on them... making them some of the most beautiful staatues she had seen that weren't made from clay for her garden.

The doors opened though and the sight that first came to her was the sunken bed area... it was massive and a trick of the eye as the bed itself was suspended in the air with heavy chains that were decorated with nova crystal and rainbow gems. It was there and between it and the black marble flooring was nothing but it was over an optical illusion.. it looked like a bottomless pit. In reality it was light absorbing cells that made it look like there was nothing but it was just marble flooring. JUnko could see the size of the bed though and it was made for almost twenty people to lay on it comfortably... as well as have spce for another twenty.

 

[Junko Ike]

Junkos bed wasn't the main feature of the chamber though.. it was central but there was the forms of her handmaidens... each one there as she had nearly twenty from around Atrisia and several from Horai which gave them an exotic flavor... twi'leks, zeltron, chiss... beautiful in their looks to benefit her and skilled in ways few others could compete with. More so each of them were Atrisian in some ways whether from birth by a parent or from adoption by being refugees that were brought to the planet after the attacks. The new movements to take care of people on the world being something that Quan'lo is just thinking about as they try and denounce the works of the government.

Several of them were making sure the palace was lived in as it were... each had their own chambers built off of the main and a testament to well the size of it... each one was large and their own private world but each were also bringing things that they knew Junko enjoyed to decorate the room. From the area with its sunken in couches that had pillows everywhere to lounge on... to the massive holoscreen that allowed them to watch movies together and relax. Information was playing about situations that were developing across the galaxy in real time... from Atrisiaa to the furthest reaches like the bryn attacking Ruusan and the silver jedi worlds.

 

[Junko Ike]

She was also able to see other events from around the galaxy such as in the Atrisian system itself... where they were developing different aspects and terraforming the other worlds that would help them. She knew the progress was getting faster though as they developed different methods.. they had the artificial islands that functioned for worlds with a lot of water to give them space.. they had improved torpedoes to seed the worlds themselves that functioned to grow trees. She could see the different testing they were doing on the moons of Atrisia Seven.. the super gas giant was massive and it had countless moons in orbit around it that they were able to terraform.

She could see Atrisia two, the planet itself was the cloest originally to Atreisia and it showed signs that it had been inhabited before but they had as far she she knew not established a colony on the world. It was possible based on the architecture that they had done it early in Atrisia's history... a world itself that would serve much like Sakura had in the past before its people didn't really revolt.. they were largely left alone to their own devices and they were going to survive. THey had no need to try and retake them unless they wanted to rejoin the Commonwealth if and when it rose back to a better position. The trade though was important.

 

[Junko Ike]

Junko was able to see a lot more of the sections here.. the worlds were being talked about with progress reports, new political events in the galaxy including the dangerous attack on the chiss homeworld... Tiantang an ancient Atrisian friend was being attacked and it seemed several other worlds were close to being wiped out. Mining operations were showing their different results from prospecting asteroids in the system and new ships were being made with celebtration... even news to show the accomplishments of the refugees who were on the world and brought their traditions had a place at Atrisia honored them and celebrated with the twi'leks.

There was a festival that was on their world but the people or Atrisia celebrated it with them... honored them as the ones who had fleed here after attacks on their worlds.... helped the planet. They fought and died for their adopted home.. they sacrificed and assimilated to the culture of Atrisia sharing many of their own just like the zeltrons, liran, chiss and some others. The national AAtrisian holidays were collected and shown with new species and on days when they would overlap well those were some of the best as it had become a sort of hybrid celebration.. the empress herself was there on the news dancing with one of the elders who had come to the world.

 

[Junko Ike]

That brought a grin to Junkos face... many knew the empress was a loving person.. she adopted the orphans of Atrisia en mass to ensure none of them would ever go without... she did everything as an initiative to try and improve the lives of the people and raise them up as they ensured the nobles and imperial court was able to be run... so they were just as essential but compared to other worlds the elite, the lords and ladies of the court were not just above them they were duty bound to ensure all of them were taken care of. The emperor was glad to step out among the people and work the fields with others she had seen which inspired.

The holoimage shifted to show them more of it and Krass nodded her head to it... checking where they were able to go here... she looked at the small chambers well small compared to hers but one for each of her handmaidens as well as a couple more... they seemed to have taken great care to set up their rooms how they wanted and Junko could see other things of her. The one room showing her armory... equipment, weapons, items she had from around the galaxy and gotten from stores.... but then it went into her vault... massive and filled with jewels, credits and currency of all types that droids were sifting through and organizing.

 

[Junko Ike]

"You guys actually worked them to get me a credit vault..." There was a grin on her face that just got wider and wider at the prospect of it... Junko just needed to laugh and grin... and smile as Phaidor spoke. "That and the massive storage closet for your shoes.... it is bigger then some of the warehouses on the planet." That was a joke.. she knew it was but it was a good joke... a worthwhile one as the jedi master thought about some of the things that they would be able to do here.. she thought about how a massive warehouse of all of shoes would look but they would need to get some droids... some improved ones at least before they were heading around.

Junko looked at the rooms that were also there and one was another chamber that brought a little heat to her face but she closed the doors while looking at Phaidor. "You got them to make a room with a droid to organize.... Oh my." She said it moving on to a room that went to another chamber that was white marble flooring with etches in it for anti slipping and there were statues lounging around and in various poses. The steam was impressive from the artificial hotsprings that were made for her bath chambers. Enough room for all of them plus more to be in there. A small island with a raised spring that had the waters cascading down like waterfalls.

 

[Junko Ike]

Junko looked at many more of the features, the internal spa on its raised platform wasn't the only feature. Along the wall was statues made from kyberite crystals, kazue stone, marble and aurodium. The galaxy had some fo the finest craftsmen and women who were brought in to make this a beautiful place. The murals at the bottom of the waters though were another thing... zeltron designers had worked on it and it wasn't painted.. it was crystaasteel glass stained into the murals which gave everything a regal look and feel. The images depicted were not all Junko but were more just Atrisians themselves as they had gotten her handmaidens and a number of beautiful women.

She was able to see more as well sincer there was a lower arrea she knew where the light from the sunroof filtered through the stained crystasteel and cast the lowest chamber in lights that no one expected. Junko was heading down there and it was not a private room it was just a game room... holomonitors and systems frrom Corellian digital under it... all of it designed to be the ultimate gaming set up with speakers and hardlight holograms... plenty of food and drinks for all night gaming sessions. Sor-Jan would be proud as she had a lunging area to rival Zak and him. A smile creeping across her face though when she exited the room.

 

[Junko Ike]

Her gaming room was no doubt something that had een given the utmost carfe in its creation the same with everything that was there... Junko was looking at so many things to try and see what they had done here that she was outright impressed with the level of detail for the island... artificial and modified as it were... but the palace itself was being made to be a feat of engineering as well. Everything about what they were doing told her the architects were going for broke in terms of their design and they had only shown her a couple of the rooms there was still the massive feasting halls, the throne room and large scale meeting chamber that was a hologram funworld rival.

Which was something that she would also have to talk about... she knew many of the refugees who were coming around were fleeing worlds that had been devasted through war but sheer policy where the silver jedi had allowed an offworlder to rule a planet that elected its ruler without question... devastate the economy and destroy many of the natural things the citizens did out of sheer ignorance. She also knew the red queen was secured on hologram fun world which narrowed down many of its uses so the zeltron refugees would need a place and offering one of the moons in the system to them in exchange for advasnced technology frrom the zeltrons themselves and their engineers... it was a yes.

 

[Junko Ike]

There was even more going for it as well... she knew the twi'leks that they had brought in, the chiss and with the attacks on their homeworld of Csilla now ongoing it was going to be something much much different. The Chiss were amazing engineers from the unknown regions ascendancy and provided some of the better engineers who were going over each piece of Atrisian technology to improve it and where they could they were helping over engineer it for vastly different scenarios.. their weapons.. their equipment... their vehicles... their ships everything was fair game in becoming not just the best but some of the strongest in the galaxy.

Junko could see many of the things that they were doing though and she knew they were pouring over endeavors like the Anshin improving upon it... each sections, each plate... adding reinforcement, structural improvements, material improvements... using nanotechnology to repair and reinfoirce.... developing better procedures to house and hold the living modules for the millions of people... the billions that were on the massive arms of the sphere. THe shipyards were functioning, the furnaces breaking down debris, salvage and everything brought to them to churn out the shells of the Choushin naval ships that housed the lightside trees of the Atrisian Commonwealth.

 

[Junko Ike]

Even still as she remained there... there was more. The Commonwealth was taking in other things.... she could see it on the display that was private several massive things were brought here after the attack on Ahch-To for safety including the living ship that Orihime and the grandmaster Sorel had discovered.. the mobile academy Sasori created to train many in the early prototypes of the Atrisian education system. THey were housing them on the finges and if they could get the massive spatial structures to be around the Commonwealth the academy would be a good way to recruit more members on the worlds of the commonwealth.

Junko could see more of it and she knew they were developing and redeveloping parts.. she wanted to bring it all and more which they would be able to do if they were lucky. A project she had seen would be something if they could pull it off and with their skills using the bangmangi station thanks to Krass they just might be able to access the dreamscape and develop a sort of organic AI for the ship itself and the planet... she could imagine it which would be enough in some cases with the dreamscape as it would help her fill in the blanks but compared to many of the things they made it just wouldn't be as large a scale as their other projects for the largest ships and facilities.
