It was a bit of an awkward position they were in now, since they were so close, but he was standing and she was sitting. Sybel looked up at him from the chair, her eyes fixed on him. His wife certainly wouldn't like him being so close to her, but Sybel did. Not necessarily because she fancied him, Uzmat was good-looking but Sybel wasn't in touch with her feelings, but because him liking her was good for her reputation and her career. "Thank you, my lord. It is my honour to serve you and be trusted by you."

Uzmat would offer Sybel his hand and if she took it he'd pull her up to be closer to him, Uzmat didn't particularly care about feelings for one another, no his interest was clear...at least to him...Uzmat was a fucker. A bastard maker. He selected women of power and some station to spread his seed, Sybel Tanaka was the damn cream of the crop. Perfect for bearing a strong child, much better than his cousin wife who by all accounts wasn't a fool to his activities, she in fact had met a few of his bastards.
"Then if our trust is mutual," he began pending she did in fact let him pull her to him then his hands would touch her, laying a firm grip on her hips, "Carry a child for me...by me...let me ensure another strong child to this world, a child like me, who will take from me this position of Marshalship."
Uzmat was bold.

She did accept, not sure why, because she didn't want to give him the idea she felt the same way. She didn't know for certain yet how far she wanted to take this. So when he spoke, she laughed. Which was not the best sign, if you knew her. It wasn't a mocking laugh but one that made it clear that she was surprised.
"Uzmat", she said, placing a hand on his cheek and smiling. "It would be the end of my career, to carry a child. I'm not fit to be a mother. The military is my child. Allow me to raise that to carry our legacy."
She hoped he didn't take it too personal.

Inside Uzmat silently seethed but his face reflected understanding, "I understand, I do," he removed her hand from his cheek and stepped away from her back to his wine, "Though it will always be a great disdain that such a creature as yourself won't have a legacy, better than your Father's of course...greater...but still," and Uzmat had dismissed any further inklings of having Sybel and their bastard child.
"We must prepare for our future legacy either way," he was speaking about his legacy within Roville...the whole of Rodale in general, "Let's make sure Marshal Grym sees that an alliance is what's best for him, any further questions?"

Sybel could sense his dissatisfaction and disappointment. For a moment, there was a little voice in her mind asking her if Uzmat would get rid of her as his Warlord if she continued to turn him down. It would be unfair, but not uncommon for a man to demote a woman because she didn't 'give it up' for him. Sybel's confidence then told the little voice to shut up, but it lingered at the back of her mind.
She returned her hands to her sides. "No, my lord. All clear." She wasn't sure whether he wanted her to leave or stay, so she remained standing in front of him, chin high.

"Then you are dismissed," Uzmat said eyes cutting toward the doors. Uzmat would wait for Sybel to leave before calling for his oldest bastard children, he wouldn't sully his pureblooded children on his wants and desires or schemes. Upon their arrival he gave them instructions of leaving a few days in advanced and pretending to be beggers so they could just get a quick glimpse of Marshal Grym's convoy.
Dismissing them he tasked one more of his bastards with a simple task, find out if Sybels sister was cut from the same stock and report back to him. He threatened a beating if the bastard failed to be discreet.
