Author' Note: If Rhiannon as a System Lord appeared in the Stargate show, I am unaware of this. And I am know Cronus was defeated before Apophis but since he was included in "Though the Gate and Across the Stars' before I realized this so he is going to make a minor appearence in this story. Thank you for your understanding and I hope you enjoy 'Olive Leaves Upon a Midnight Breeze'.

Rhiannon and Ba'al

Ba'al was confident in his powers and his dominace. So confident it allowed Rhiannon to easily put him where she wanted him. She was amused at how he thought that he controlled her and that she served him. If only he knew that he in truth served her and that she controlled him.

The Gou'ald System Lord in question smiled, watching Rhiannon. Ba'al had seen this before, a minor Gou'ald try and use the System Lords to seize more power now that Anubis was gone. He knew that she was playing with forces that she could not control. He would have some fun with her before he crushed her. And she still served his purposes alive. After she outlived her usefullness, she would make a good servent for Cronus, he laughed to himself.
