The Empress recently underwent rejuvenation therapy. The doctors say her side-effects are "perfectly normal" and that she will be "right as rain" very soon. Well, Prime Minister Iolanthe Meadowes isn't sure that she can wait that long. During last week's audience, after studying the starmaps intently, the Empress declared war on "the blue bits". This week, blue is back in favour, but the Empress is now toying with the idea of annexing the galaxy's orange sectors. P.M. Meadowes had the foresight to disconnect the link between the imperial console and the command database. Let's hope the Empress doesn't find out. You learn to be discreet in the Imperial StarGuards. The Empress is RDNA's LaRoo 2. I ran out of space on the RMP credits. Vital ones are the Princess's Bedroom (expansion), by Ratracer - absolutely sensational, although it doesn't do any harm to have a lifetime or two to spare for rendering it - and the Cyberseat by Stonemason and Moebius87. The guards' headsets are by VanishingPoint. The other scifi fixtures are from DAZ (also by Stonemason, I think).
