“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."

Vanthm chuckled, and shifted around in his seat. He had just finished wiping blood from his face, and now he was staring aimlessly at his stained plate as he thought to himself. He knew that Adriana had gotten stabbed with the poisonous knife, which meant that she was exactly where he had predicted her to be. Du WeldenVarden (I believe that’s how you spell it, look at the map I provided at the beginning of the thread for directions) “I have a good idea where they are.”

“Lord Vanthm, would it be possible to have an imposter appearing as you attack the riders, maybe an elaborate illusion of sorts.”

“I will have to think about the specifics on our attack. An illusion would be tricky…but interesting.” Vanthm loved to mess with his victims, and Mutt was filled with interesting ideas. “I’m not even sure if I want to go for the elders first…maybe the young one will be good to start with.” He glanced at Mutt, who had just turned his attention away from a shuddering maid.

“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?”


The lord sat back in his chair, putting his fingers together calmly and arched them. “I will be there often to lead you in the right direction but…” He smirked to himself, thinking of all the glorious moments he would have invading Adriana’s mind through his magical poison. “I have other things to do concerning the Riders. I will make sure you are properly trained though…so yes, I will be there most of the time.”

(Will post after Merion tomorrow for Adriana and Draken)
