I gave The Ruler Of Twelve Nebulae a moment of silence after it happened. It's somewhat shocking that the woman you conquered half of known space to bring back from the dead takes a look at the majesty of your conquest then deliberately falls back into the cosmic nothingness. When I judged it appropriate, I spoke.
"Surely the entire universe is an acceptable second prize, Mistress."
She was silent for a moment longer, then turned and sent a powerbolt towards me. Since she only removed an arm, I knew she agreed with me, even if she didn't realise it yet.
