"Warlord Ranveig, he is one of the most fiercest galra in the empire. That is why my father had sent him to the fringes of the universe. He will already have many factions pledging their allegiance," Lotor said.
"Commander Gnov was one of Zarkon's most trusted advisors. She will be working to merge the commanders in Zarkon's inner circle. She isn't as reckless as Warlord Ranveig, but she is just as cruel," he glared smirky at the screen.
"Quartermaster Janka, he over sees supply routes throughout the empire. His power is bureaucracy, don't let him fool you. He shouldn't be underestimated," lotor finished.
"Yeah, he always keeps popping up in my database. His supply management it astonishing, he totally color codes," Pidge said and Lotor nodded.
"Hagar will most definitely be here. She isn't full galra, and isn't eligible for the throne, but she probably has a puppet already," Lotor told the paladins and they nodded.
"See if anyone of those people were to take control of the throne then Zarkon's reign would continue. Let us help Lotor get the throne," Shiro said trying to convince the team again. Allura still look wary as did Coran but Keith was starting to be on bored.
"Shiro, we have already discussed this, it is a risky move," Allura said and Lance shook his head. "What if one of those people sat on the throne. They have been under Zarkon's reign for over a millennia, they probably were raised by Zarkon. Lotor might have actually been raised by let's not forget the fact that everyday he was beat by Zarkon and was always told he was a bastard and worthless scum.
Don't you think that after your own father said cruel and did cruel things to you might change the way you think? He had a tough childhood, why would he want that for others," Lance said and apologized to Lotor.
"Sorry, I shouldn't have told them those personal things," Lance said and Lotor shook is head. "No, you are right. It is a risk princess Allura but if we didn't take chances because there was a risk we would be cowards. Everything we do is a risk and we can't hide from them forever. I'm not saying I will run the empire the way you want, but the way I want the empire to be is not cruel and conquering planets against their will. I want everyone to heal and over time the galra will be seen as they once were," Lotor said and Lance nodded smiling.
"The galra may have forgot their old way and amongst us there will be civil wars, but overtime, just like how the galra came to be now, cruel and unjust punishments, they can go back to the way they were over a millennia ago," Lotor gripped Lance's hand.
"I also would like to talk to you about something Lance," Lotor told him and Lance nodded.
"We will not help," Allura finalized her answer and Lance and Lotor nodded, as they knew they cannot force her to help. Shiro shook his head walking away again and silence fell over the paladins.

"Through 33 rulers, during times of peace and times of expense, this flame has burned for over 13 millennia.Form our first, Brodar, to Vrig the Great, and longest and most powerful of them all... Zarkon. But his time has passed," The Archivist spoke just as the flame in the Kral Zera has disappeared, declaring that Zarkon's reign has truly ended.
Commanders and generals stood smoking at each other looking upon the Kral Zera. "Our next ruler
Just ascend the steps of destiny and relight the Kral Zera!" He said with open arms and silence crossed them all before a commander walked to the pit of purple flames reaching for a torch was pierced by Warlord Ranveig's weapons and stepped up grabbing a torch and lighting it with the purple flame."Only the strongest can lay their hands on a torch. I will assume command as I have been on the frontlines of the expanse, where iron meets souls, spreading the glory of the empire," he spoke strongly.
"Were do I not sit on already conquered worlds, getting fat on the victories of our forefathers," he finished holding the torch up.
"Warlord Ranveig speaks the truth. That is way Sendak, the purest of the galra, should like the flame," Haggar spoke coldly as Sendak stepped forward.
"He was Zarkon's right hand for millennia, and he would lead the empire for 10,000 more years," she grinned to herself while commanders talked amongst themselves.Warlord Ranveig snickered. "Sendak? He who was hiding while the empire fell apart? He who needs a witch to speak on his behalf?" He taunted.
"Enough! Victory or Death!" Sendak snarled as he prepared to fight Warlord Ranveig. His arm has changed, and was better improved.
"You will now know why Zarkon put me in the most dangerous territory in the universe," Warlord Ranveig grinned grabbing his weapons and the galra charged at each other.
Sendak used his arm to block Ranveig'a attacks but as he released his arm, Ranveig jumped over it and Sendak missed. He growled attacking the warlord and his arm returned to himself and grabbed Ranveig thrusting him into the wall.he screamed in pain as the concrete crumbled in him.

Lance and Lotor were alone talking as they were reaching Feyiv. "I would like you to run the empire with me," he told lance who's eyes widen.
"What?" He breathed. "Well we are planning on getting married on earth, and since we have been in this war together the moment we met, why not end it together? Completely?" Lotor convinced Lance at "I would like"
"Running the empire with the love of my life, sounds like a plan," Lance smiled and wrapped his arms around Lotor's neck and they shared a kiss. "Fight with me at the Kral Zera and light the flame with me," Lance nodded and embraced each other.
