Chapter 3.1: The party begins
EDIT: The base is sited in the year 951, in a very odd timeline that has NO h*archate. Supplies have to be brought in via rift from other timelines. Thread here.
Ashari's new base features variable layout, which has been put to use in creating an extravagant ballroom. Tables to one side boast a variety of foods, drinks both alcoholic and non-alcoholic, and the occasional euphoric drugs. Candlevines glow blue and violet, and flower arrangements interspersed with fantastic sculptures of lace-woven wire adorn the tables. The arrangements mean various sarcastic things, if you're familiar with the Andan petal language.
Music plays softly enough not to overwhelm conversation, loudly enough to set a mood complementing the low-key lighting.
Remi is one of the first arrivals from the Cantata, shepherding the mothlings. Because he's a Nirai, he has a slate and is taking notes, although he is happy enough to talk to anyone who approaches him.
The kitchen is currently adjacent to the ballroom. Ashari's voice can be heard, raised in some kind of argument with...a caterer?

Re: Eddox and Seyli wander over
"As far as Quill is concerned, he has disappeared from that universe without a trace." Sasha has dropped the pretense of sweetness. She is smiling now, lips slightly parted, the way a lynx scents its prey.
Re: Eddox and Seyli wander over
"So it's like that then, all right." Eddox gave Sasha the once over, half because they hadn't taken the woman in properly at first, half because they wanted to project a lack of reverence for her implied threat.
"Well, I guess I can learn all the juicy gossip later. For now I'll play it by eye. But I do have one last very important question: Who is paying me and how much?"
Re: Eddox and Seyli wander over
"I am; and you're asking the wrong question. Grid, when is Umul Eddox being paid?"
[The typical rebellion arrangement is to give people room, board, and pocket money, and to remit larger payments to a bank account in the person's home timeline. This is complicated by the fact that we're in a splinter cell of the rebellion, but Sasha used to work for the financial-transfers unit and has probably sorted out continuing payment. If Eddox wants regular paychecks in the current timeline, that's a special negotiation.]
