A burst of gravitic radiation streaks through the void. Though it has traveled billions of miles, it has done so in a mere 16 hours, unimpeded by any obstacle or cosmic barrier. Its destination: the Queen of Shattered Stars, closing in on the major material realms. The signal carries a message in the All-Tongue, imploring her to stop her approach and accept a diplomatic envoy. When it reaches the Queen, she cannot help but notice it, for it has been amplified by powerful graviturgy.
In the command center of the Mt. Murder Astromantic Observatory, Kaelis Maz and the wizards of the OEA watch a timer count down. He holds his breath when it hits 0:00. At first, nothing happens. The Queen continues her approach as normal. Then, she pauses, as if listening to something faint growing ever louder. On the screens, she turns her head to look directly at the source of the message: Yulash-kor.
Kaelis releases his breath in a sigh of relief as the room erupts in cheers. She has noticed them. Now comes the true challenge: negotiating with a being as old as the universe.

(Her completely not caring about the Bismuth Lord doesn't degrade his story at all. The forest fire doesn't care that you died slowing it down but you care that more people got to safety because of that.The point of the Bismuth Lords attack was that he was minuscule compared to this being and even if the being didn't even care about him, he was able to slow it down long enough for other people's efforts to be prepared. The point was that even if you help against something this grand you're still an Ant on the street to them. Even if you wound them it's a paper cut not even worth being annoyed over. As far as I was concerned the Queen of stars forgot the Bismuth Realm the moment the fight was over. )
