Somewhere in the Milky Way. The Goa'uld System Lords, version number… Anyway, the Goa'uld System Lords, possessing three male an three female hosts, were gathered around a circular table. Their personal escort, a human slave or a person with another title and the first prime, were standing behind them. There was a seventh seat at the table, empty as the owner was absent. Ba'al was the owner, as indicated by the golden mark on the seat.

Brontes, one of the men, on the right of Ba'al's seat, gazed skeptically at Apophis with his only working eye. A small golden ball was replacing the right eye. "I don't understand why we should attack this planet," he spoke sharply.

Nirrti glanced at Brontes and nodded, she had the same opinion. She looked towards Apophis. "We defeated many of our enemies and seized their territories. What's the purpose of taking control of a planet that is abandoned and that doesn't seem to have a chapa'ai?"

"You weren't as hesitant when you decided to raid that planet, Langara. And your scientist seems to be satisfied with his host," Apophis, sat next to Brontes, responded.

Indeed, Nirrti spared the lives of a very few of Langarans. Those she thought could be useful. Jonas Quinn became the host of her scientist and was now standing behind her.

"And the naquadriah we found provided you a huge advantage against Ra, Kʼawiil, and Ishtar," Nirrti said, looking past Apophis and Klorel, seated next to him. Her message was directed to Apophis of course, but also to his first prime, Teal'c, and Klorel's, Bra'tac. She focused on Apophis again. "Besides, you got hosts, too." Nirrti glanced at Klorel again and the woman on her left, Amaunet. Klorel and Amaunet were controlling Skaara's and Sha're's body respectively. Taken after Apophis's victory over Ra. Nobody retorted anything.

Brontes broke the silence, the left elbow on the armrest, looking at the opponent of Ra, "What does this planet you seem to be very interested in have that the others don't?"

Nirrti and Qetesh, in Vala Mal Doran's body and on the left of the empty seat, nodded. Apophis beckoned to Klorel with the head, to let him speak.

"It has plenty of potential hosts and slaves."

Qetesh raised an eyebrow, not convinced. "We're going to concentrate our efforts to get a few thousands more hosts and slaves?"

Klorel smirked. "We're not talking about thousands, but billions."

The last word shocked Brontes, Qetesh, and Nirrti. Qetesh glanced at her escort, in particular Kal'el, the female Jaffa who served Moloc before being integrated into her new goddess's court. Qetesh thought about the opportunity and turned back to the table. Meanwhile, Nirrti beckoned to Jonas to come closer. They exchanged a few words in private.

Amaunet looked at the three System Lords and broke her silence, "Shall we vote?"
