Galactus and the Power Gem
Before, there was too much sudden shock and death to think much. Now, Sarah has a lot of space aboard the Shi'ar flagship. Most of the Imperial Guard has been sent to comb other corners of the galaxy, but Adam Warlock and Lilandra alike seemed fairly certain that Galactus would know something, or possibly have been somewhere the Surfer would consider 'safe' for a gem. The down side is, Galactus has not always been the most helpful of beings.
She stands on the bridge, staring out into space, and trying hard to force herself to look ahead, instead of back.

	"The latest reports tell me that Galactus is currently working on preventing Thanos from reaching his goal, though the situation may change from one day to the next. His herald is gathering information as well. You should anticipate an extremely delicate situation that will not resolve itself by force." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Sarah nods. "I've dealt with Galactus diplomatically once before. I'll do what's necessary this time as well, though obviously I can't match your credentials where diplomacy on this scale is concerned." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Lilandra inclined her head a tiny bit to acknowledge the truth of Sarah's statement. "There has been enough death, and little profit or advantage from it. I would prefer to end this as quickly and bloodlessly as possible, though I cannot see how we will avoid it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Let's see what the situation is. I will do my best to protect you, and we try and deal with things through diplomacy if we can." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"And perhaps we will manage to protect you as well," Lilandra said. Her mouth may have twitched at the assumptions of youth and power versus age and experience. "Whatever comes, we will have played our roles." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Sarah's assumptions had little to do with age. She's used to being her team's brick, for good or ill, and is quite willing to absorb the hits here as well if it gives the Empress a chance to exercise her own strengths. "It sounds like we're almost there. We should put on space suits, just in case." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Gladiator stands by and awaits the Empress' orders. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Lilandra nodded to Gladiator. "Our young guest is correct. It is time." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Sarah heads for the equipment room. Gladiator doesn't need anything extra to survive in space. She could last a while, but not indefinitely, and she's not sure what she should be expecting when they arrive. Once she's equipped she heads for the nearest viewing area as they're coming out of warp. "I'm all set." she calls through the ship coms. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Go," Lilandra responded. "We will make our way onto Galactus' ship and try to reason with him." (Reply to this)(Parent)
