Here Comes the Pride

[Kiattaarra Feessaarro]

Sometimes Kia worried that all she did was inspect things. She had inspected her fleet's newest jewel, the Saantarra, and now here she was, delivered safely to Jovan Station so she could view the achievements of the Cizerack Pride and Alliance, working together.

Heavily pregnant with twins, Kei'samaarraa'ssee'jaakreea, Mother of the Cizerack Pride, Blessed by Saanjarra Herself, and her full retinue swept into the station from their shuttle - the Oorru'Gurre'Gurre, her flagship, was much too large to put into port at Jovan and was therefore sitting in space a distance away. Korrtir and rrou'korrta fanned out behind her as her honor guard surrounded her. Kia could barely see the station between the red uniforms.

She wrinkled her nose. "jIt doesss have an unusssual ssmell."
