“No, I agree that we should get rid of the elders first. However…that won’t be our first attack. We need to send smaller, less risky attacks. And as for your training…we can start today if you wish. Most of your studies, however, will be in the library…where you will learn and memorize spells.”
“I under stand lord Vanthm, it make sense not to attach with full force, without at least getting an idea of how much the enemy strength has increased. Maybe a small raid on a near by town to draw them out, unless you know where they are of course."
Pushing his empty platter away, he wiped his claws on his pants, and waited for Lord Vanthm’s answer. The enemy had no doubt gotten stronger, and now that Vanthm pointed out that we needed to send smaller less risky attacks, it seemed foolish to even think about taking out the riders without a decent idea of their strength and weakness.
“Lord Vanthm, would it be possible to have an imposter appearing as you attack the riders, maybe an elaborate illusion of sorts.”
All this talk of killing coupled with eating raw human meat was giving him a strong blood lust. He felt like ripping someone head off for no reason except that he could, his eyes wondered around the room eyeing the maids with a look that could only be described as euphoric.
Tearing his gaze away from the frightened girls, he turned back to lord Vanthm’s, a lazy smile across his face.
“Also I would like to begin training today, since I know nothing of battle against dragon riders. Will you be supervising my studies in the library?”
