What in gods name is this.

This is a comedy programme called Spitting image.
It used to be on back in the 1980's. They brought it back.
Here's their take on Donnie.

You can always roleplay yourself back to life again.

Yeah, and I am. But that's going to take months in-game to even get where I'm going and years to set up. Because I don't have spaceships that defy the laws of reality.

Do you now, and why would someone be willing to help.

Taraia gives a nod to the guards, beckoning them to stay with the ship. The two then walk with the cardinal, suspicious of everyone's awfully cheery tone.

"So, uuh, Cardinal. Can you kindly give us a run down on what this festival is about?" says Taraia as she shows her mother some data she had collected on a large mech nearby.

"Ah yes, the Angels celebrate their arrival and so do we! No longer is our planet one of squabbling nations but one united in faith to the overlords of heaven! They call this the beginning of a third civilization.", he'd say then give a sigh of relief.
"They came in our hour of need, our faith was diminished until they showed themselves. No longer is that such the case."

They'd walk past more human troops in the advanced alien armour, specifically manning checkpoints and patrolling the streets or guarding clerics as they harass the 'unclean'.
It wasn't long until they reached main street, the earth itself shook as the mechs along with more conventional armour moved along with the Eleni either marching or flying. Oddly there was human troops marching as well.
Anytime there was an eleni formation however people kneeled and those who didn't had the back of their legs hit by the rifles of human guards or taken away.
The cardinal happily hummed as they walked behind the barricades, past Eleni and human alike until they reached the castle before the Citadel. Inside would mostly be empty minus the occasional guard. The lighting was warm, dark yet enough light to get around and see most things. They'd get to the 6th floor and shown to the personal quarters of the gatekeeper though the cardinal waited outside.

It appeared as if those inside weren't exactly prepared. There was a young human girl, 14 years old at most and her eyes were red as if she was recently crying and overall she looked traumatized. There was a dark red blanket over her shoulders made from Eleni fabric.
Are of all people was in the room as well. Her wings seemed to be retracted, her horns smaller than usual and covered by her hair, no armour at all and instead short black robes. Her back was turned to the Avalonians as they entered as she was preparing some food, it was quite odd seeing someone of her size fumbling around with human appliances.
"Damn this appliance.", Are muttered putting whatever she made on a plate and turning around, her eyes staring directly at the Empress' own, a poorly prepared burrito on the plate. Are quickly walked into another room and placed the plate down before walking out and gently putting her hand on the human girl's shoulder and whispering something before helping her up, fixing the blanket as she did and showing her to the room before closing the doors to it. Are then turned once more to the Avalonians though said nothing before taking a seat on a chair, bigger in size than most in the room due to her size.

Alenix Square | Atlas
Inauguration Day

The streets are let up with dazzling lights and celebratory décor all throughout the capital district. Massive crowds of all species and race cheer as much as they can for the event. The national anthem plays loudly and the brilliant banner of Vicavalas waves gallantly above the whole center. Tonight marks the beginning of a new administration that will serve the common folk for years to come. Tonight is the night of President-Elect Roderock's Inauguration.

A full hour of celebration and patriotism unfold all across the planet. The event is also broadcasted throughout every system across the Empire as well. After the crowd calms, she finally arrives at the since. A government U-Wing painted in the signature Scarlet and Black colors of the nation flies over the crowd at a timely pace, only causing the crowd to erupt in cheering. The ship then lands elegantly in the center of the plaza just close to the President's podium where the former president, chairman, the Empress' middle child Myzon, and a few other high-ranking officials wait patiently.

The U-Wing's main door opens, revealing President-Elect Caelia J. Roderock in all of her glory. She struts slowly over to the podium wearing a beautiful handcrafted silk dress, custom-made to her liking. As she walks up to get ready to speak to the nation, everyone waiting for her collectively give her a nod of approval, making her blush slightly. By now, crowds all across the entire Empire cheer in unison. Former President Japochird takes her hand and tells her to hold the other up, which she does.

"Ok, repeat after me Caelia." softly says the former president. She replies and copies his lead.

"I do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the rights of the Empire of Vicavalas against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the-"

Suddenly, a shot is heard from a while away. The blast from a sniper rifle just barely brushes past Roderock's face, leaving her untouched, but shaken. The crowd stands in shock as they nearly saw the death of their new leader unfold right in front of them. The suspect flees the scene an to a craft marked with the syndicalist star of Cartr's party.

Part 2 coming soon...

The Empress gives to Are a thousand-yard stare, a stare that probably would've blown through several solid walls if this was any other people of matter. The Empress turns to her daughter and tells her to leave the room at once, which she reluctantly complies. The empress then turns back towards the chair where Are sits, slowly making her way over there until she's eye-to-eye with the Aina.

"I see that you've been adjusting to your new settlement rather quickly Are. I can't help but respect that factor, as not many others can accomplish such a task." she says with a hint of disgust in her voice.

She scans the room around her, paying quite a bit of attention to the room in which the human girl had entered into.

The room, itself wasn't visible but the door was seemingly normal and made out of a dark wood.
There was several creaks from behind the door as if someone was moving on the floor but due to the lack of sound of footsteps its possible the person was trying to be quiet.

Are stared at the empress, a mildly confused look on her face.
"You compliment but your tone has that of someone trying to display...", she'd then pause trying to think of the words.
"Dislike? Distaste? I'm not sure of what word to use. This species has many words for simple concepts."
"For some reason some of the younger males of this species has called me 'Lady Snu-Snu' or 'Giant Mommy GF' in their electronic correspondences yet I cannot find Snu-Snu in any dictionaries.. is this some kind of word simplification? I know what a mommy is however though not this 'GF'... yet I'm not their mother, how does that work?", she'd ask getting a bit off track with all her questions.
"Nevermind. It has only been a short time since we last met.. what can I do for you?"

"Nevermind. It has only been a short time since we last met.. what can I do for you?"

The Empress is briefly amused by the mention of Giant Mommy GF, as she's studied Terran culture before and found similar "concerns" there. She then fixes herself to speak again, sighing heavily.

"Oh, nothing at all. I just...need some clarification on a few things....." she'd start.

"You know, I could've sworn that you said you and your nation came in peace. It really did seem like you meant your word, especially with that cheerful attitude of yours. You certainly did put on a clever act I must say. But now, I don't think that's necessarily the case." she'd continue, now looking dead at Are.

"I know what you did once you departed from our system that time before. My observations and findings confirm so indeed: Genocide. The slaughter of millions of innocents. Caused by your orders." she'd say, expecting Are to deny it immediately. Her cold and calculative demeanor makes the room seem a few degrees colder then what it really feels.

"We did come in peace", Are gave a smile before leaning back in her seat casually.

"Genocide?", she'd question.
"I'm not aware with this term.", she'd go on to add with a slightly concerned tone.
"Are you speaking of deaths of the planetary natives? That is just war. Human civilizations are aware of what war is correct? ", she'd ask raising her eyebrow.
"My orders?", she'd continue to ask.

"Yes, your orders. It's like I'm talking to myself here. Unknownst to you, I had spies sent to see just exactly what you were up to after you'd left. Really, you should've checked before leaving. Now, I know exactly what had happened that day thanks to them." notes the Empress before opening a quick recording of the event:

Flashback, The Invasion of Pharos

A none triumvirate remains hidden behind cover on the surface. He'd blend in with the surrounding invasion force which helped him get onto the surface unharmed. As he records his observations, he spots about 100 angel-like figures descend from the sky with a larger, slightly different one leading them all at the front. It's but a few short moments later before the leading figure which is revealed to be Are gives the command, "Show them Terror". Suddenly, it seems like half the city erupts in flames as the invasion commences with the same angel-like people slaughtering both innocents and soldiers alike. Then, one of these figures spots the spy and rushes towards him, believing him to be another trooper. The spy manages to send the information back to HQ just in time before he's impaled by the angel's staff weapon, killing him immediately.

End of Flashback

The recording ends with static. The Empress grows a little more frustrated now with Are's act, especially after having to review the clip with her. Her eyes become a little paler in blue.

"Your nation spilled unnecessary blood on this planet, bringing unnecessary conflict and destruction to this peaceful world, without a single word of mercy spoken at all! I think this clip proves me correct in my outrage. And then on top of this, you erased the former inhabitants' way of life by building over their bloodied remains, leaving the survivors to watch as the balance of life on their home be forever uprooted and erased from memory." she says with a fiery tone, getting choked up in the process.

Taraia walks into the room after sensing her mother's anger.

"Mother, is everything all right?" she'd ask.
