Unlike how she previously was as Mu-01, Endian seemed more... Obedient. Perhaps it was because the original Endian was upmost loyal to Endian. or maybe Krieg was just maturing. Either way she showed no emotions, not even happiness, as Eos granted the golden eyes back. Of course internally Endian was absolutely jumping with joy. Despite her new body coming with a calmer demeanor, she was still a fight happy maniac and was glad to have her power back. And just to put the cherry on top, Eos granted Endian back her power in front of Hibiki, the one who removed the same blessing not too long ago. Endian, and by extension Krieg, didn't really care if her demotion was due to her own failures in battle. She'll prove her worth time and again for as long as she exists, and show everyone why she is the strongest fighter in the Machina forces. Of course if this was all, Endian would have bowed and left. However they seem to have some new mysterious guest. Endian was no stranger to mad scientist coming around and offering great power at a price. That was practically the modus of the Machina, something they do with more success than demons do. At least you can be sure that the Machina won't go back or double-cross you when it came to power deals. Endian turned her head towards the black-and-white newcomer to hear what she had to say. In the back of her mind however, Endian had a thought she never had before. A dream really. With the golden eyes all she could think of was battle, but now with her new mechanical mind she thought bigger. Not just of battle, but of conquest. IN her head Endian started to wonder what it would be like if she could rally soldiers under her banner and not just crush her enemies, but take over parts of the Nexus. She knew that she lacked the infrastructure to do it on her own, but that was why she would conquer in the name of the Machina. Take over parts of the Nexus, and have Eos send her army to occupy the lands. At the same time, Endian would "manage" these conquered territories on behalf of Eos, but also use the chance to grow in power. Make Grafdakka stronger. Make herself stronger. Endian wanted power, and these GOlden Eyes certainly packed a punch. But Endian wanted more. She didn't want to just fight now. She wanted to win.

Just another day in hell of course. It didn't take long for Fran to reach the throne room and saw that they repaired and even reinforced the walls. Fran could tell because she heard loud violent banging and nothing flew towards her yet. So Fran wandered on over to see Henry about to speak his report about the last battle. A battle which Fran barely remembered happened. She knew that the demons had gone over to some Machina fortress or something, but she couldn't remember if she was involved or what happened. [color=goldenrod]"That's weird. I've been all fucked up before, but usually I remember those with vivid memory. I wonder what happened? I gotta have been at that battle, but something must've happened to make me forget..."[/color] Fran thought outloud as she walked over into the throne room. The door nearly hit her as it was flung open. As the other demons filed in Fran took a seat on a large piece of rubble to hear what happened yesterday. She'd really like to know, considering that Fran lost all memories of what occurred. [color=goldenrod]"So Henry, how'd the battle go? From the decor, I'm guessing we flunked it."[/color] [@Banana][@TheWindel][@floodtalon]
