*Leia sat down*
"I suppose it's necessary for taking over countries. Although some people just charge in blindly."

*Genghis arched his brow.*
"I suppose they do. I didn't take you for one intrigued by military strategy."
*He tilted his head as he appraised her.*
"I find that I am in the market for an adviser, should you be interested."

"I am flattered by your request. However, I must decline."
*She looked at him more seriously*
"When the Empire attacked my land, I was the only survivor. I witnessed millions slaughtered in the name of conquest. I would not wish to see it again."

*Genghis smiled and shook his head.*
Women.
"And what do you want then? Peace and love and good will among men?"
*The words held a sarcasm that you could cut with a blade.*

"Anyone who believes that is possible is rather naive."
*She shook her head*
"I believe in freedom, and that is all."

*Genghis nodded knowingly.*
"Ahh...so you don't mind violence as a means as long as you get your happy ending. Interesting...for a woman. So tell me, Princess, how many would you sacrifice for your freedom?"

"Just for mine? None. I would fight for it myself, and if any wished to aid me, that would be their choice."
He and Vader should get together. They'd be a cute couple.

*Genghis shook his head.*
"I mean for the same freedom that you fight for. How many does it take to justify it? And why are my ways so different?"

"If a people are opressed by another and cry out for help, we shall answer their call. But to set up a dictatorship- to lay waste to a land, murdering, raping, pilliaging- that is something I could never be involved in."

"Indeed."
It's man's work.
*Genghis nodded and glanced up to the other tent.*
"Are you sure you are not hungry? I would be most interested to hear your philosophies on freedom and how it might be maintained. And I find that such discussions work well over a meal."

*Genghis escorted her to his tent and before a low table covered with exotic foods. He gestured for her to sit. He did so as well and picked up a plum.*
"So tell me about what it is that you are fighting to do? You have my attention and have piqued my interest."

((At least he didn't do what Vader did to her: www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHhiMoFvDI8))*She sat down with him* "I and my friends are part of the Rebel Alliance. We fight against the Empire, lead by Emperor Palpatine and Darth Vader. The have taken over countless countries, squelched every civil liberty, and wiped out millions of lives." *She sighed* "Including everyone but me from my home country."

((zomg. *almost chokes on my water*))
*Genghis eyed her shrewdly.*
"And how is it that these men have accomplished so much...and yet I have never heard of them."
What are you trying to pull over on me?
