Sarah nodded, thinking to herself about what she was seeing from Sabrina… the real Sabrina, now. She was pleased with what she saw, even if what she saw had it’s flaws. If Remilia had reminded her of Arcturus, Sabrina reminded her more of Admiral Stukov - ruthless, to the point, and always looking for the long-term, while keeping a close eye on those near him.
Of course, just like Stukov, Sabrina tended to make many assumptions at first glance. A flaw, perhaps, but one Kerrigan didn’t feel like alerting the psychic pokemon master too. So when She warned about a “rapidly spreading swarm of zerg” alerting the emperor, Kerrigan simply acknowledged the idea - if Sabrina wasn’t aware of just how fine a control Kerrigan had over her zerg, that wasn’t a bad advantage to keep. She’d leave Sabrina to her assumptions.
Instead, she listened intently to her ally - and she had to admit, as an information source, Sabrina wasn’t bad - though as she kept talking, Sarah’s frustration grew. Minute after minute ticked by, and yet there was still so much information to obtain - what she wouldn’t give to be able to recreate the zerg Hive-mind, right now. Things that should have taken atto-seconds were now taking minutes from the zerg queen’s time.
Her stoicism was also admirable - Kerrigan noted the diplomatic tongue the woman had, and the utter confidence in every word. This, here, was something near to a true sociopath - and one that had done quite well for herself. She’d gained a lot of information about this world, and was able to give useful information almost exclusively. Kerrigan’s mind was already wrapping around the key points, making plans, noting what she’d have to avoid, and figuring out what she needed to concentrate on -- suppressing a quiet chuckle at Sabrina’s evaluation of her power.
Her psychic strength may have fallen, as had her physical strength and reflexes, but that had never been what made Sarah Kerrigan the terror of the galaxy. The key to that was her intellect, and Omni hadn’t managed or hadn’t cared to limit that strength from Sarah. Turning away with a smile, Sarah held up a hand, Concentrating on the Flow of Omnilium as she mentally noted the small device on Sabrina’ hip. Concentrating, it wasn’t long before a flesh-covered variant of her own was created. “That will be all for now, then, Sabrina. Do let me know if I can be of any help to you in the future, and I will do the same. For now, I think I’ll put the information you gave me to good use. Oh - I’ll ask for one little favor before I go.” Sarah added, pretending to have just remembered something she’d meant to ask regardless.
“What is that?” Sabrina asked, raising an eyebrow. Kerrigan grinned. “If you’ve access to the reports in the pale moors… I’d appreciate it if I was mentioned in a positive light in them. I’ve no idea of your clearance, but if you could change a fact here or there, maybe convince some flunkie there to impress you with a few word changes… let’s just say I’d appreciate it.” Sarah said with a smirk, placing one hand on her hip. “Well, either way, I’ve been here too long. I take my leave.” The queen of blades stated with a grin, before walking away, seeming to flicker in and out of vision as she moved down the streets with lightning speed, heading towards Coruscant's entrance.
The pale moors, hmm?
A perfect place for her first hive cluster.
