BLOODORY nods, and the two men move to the communications console. After a moment, MAS AMEDDA’S looming image flickers to life on a large screen before them.
AMEDDA: What is the situation, Commander?
KANE: The subjugation effort is progressing well, my Lord. Ondos has surrendered to us with a minimal amount of expenditure, and Dr. Bloodory here has now perfected the mind-control over an individual - King Oxus in fact. I’ve seen it for myself.
BLOODORY steps forward and clears his throat.
BLOODORY: Indeed, Master, I have made Oxus act and say as I wish, and he has already signed the treaty relinquishing his planet to full Imperial control. Once the citizens have been implanted, that control will be solidified.
AMEDDA: Then I strongly suggest you both hurry to tie up these loose ends.
KANE: The minor adjustments necessary to allow for the control of a large population are being completed, and I feel confident enough to say that we are now ready to send out the initial wave of gas droids to obtain your first full society of mind control subjects.
AMEDDA nods.
AMEDDA: Very well. It’s taken longer than expected, but you have my full authority to proceed. Do not fail.
The transmission ends.
