And when they've got a satisfactory set of results - "great, let's go."

The Empress is somewhat hard to crack on the subject of her resignation but can be pathed through it with enough intimidation and something she's probably parsing as a subtle hint that she will have her chance to retake the empire later on. The various subordinates range from "personally loyal" to "eager to see her go".

The eager-to-see-her-go ones and the ones who are generally smartest and best able to appreciate the implications of 'teleporting aliens' are the ones who can be set to enforcing the new Empress's decrees on the status of bird-people after a short pointed conversation; the ones who hate bird-people or are personally loyal to her mostly have to resign also, though this one minister who is at least willing to pretend to be eager to cooperate can have a chance to prove he means it.

And then if Isabella can check whether anything is on fire or soon will be -

Not so she's about to notice it, anyway -

She is planning to teleport around checking, easiest way to do it without having also booked some demon time and they don't really need a demon for this. Pop pop pop pop pop a couple invisible checkins, including on that loyalist of the old Empress who was willing to pretend at enthusiastic cooperation - 

If anything is on fire it's very discreet about it!

Okay! Back to Isabella - "since we're already obnoxious aliens who just took over the government, no harm in throwing all the harmless tech we can at this place, right?"

"I think you're right! But it'll take them some doing to make it play nice with their manufacturing base."

"I should ask Curva to come help fiddle, I think she is feeling vaguely displaced now that my mother has alts to aggressively invent at."

"Awww. Sounds great."

She comes over a little later! "Hi. Apparently you two just took over a couple planets this afternoon?"

"Three of 'em! It's all one empire, though, counting per planet seems disingenuous."

"I don't know, interplanetary empires seem harder to take over than single-planet ones. Anyway, what're they doing with computers, can I have some to look at -"

"Would you find it more efficient to go find Cam wherever he is and ask for them or wait, uh - thirty minutes - for a local who'll show you stuff?"

"Can I learn the local language in the meantime?"

"Sure, there's enough of a corpus on the network to get you started."

Bounce bounce. "I will do that."

"Far be it from me to stop you."

"Is there someone here I can talk to, it'll go much faster -"

Check check - "Yeah, go here," image, "tell the archivist in Allspeak you were sent there to learn the language, he won't ask inconvenient questions."

Off she goes!

And Isabella sets about the details of transfer of power.

Her notes are very helpful! Here are the ministers who got replaced last transfer of power, here are the most essential appointments, she is going to go speak to the bird-people rebels now, Isabella want to precog it -

Of course she does.

What happens if she just shows up and announces she's recruiting for ministerial positions in the new government, can they recommend some capable bird-people.
