Twitch's words were fair: maybe it was too early to have approached him with the idea of a makeshift alliance within their group, but [b]Ekusha[/b] was happy enough she had brought up the idea. She was sure it would grow more appealing over time, especially if and when the conquest grew to larger, harder to manage proportions. As for his issue with [i]That Which Consumes Peace[/i], she agreed that he would potentially be a thorn in their side, given his violent nature.

She departed his workspace and began wandering the halls, and with the help of some imps, slowly learned how to navigate their base of operations. Soon enough one had approached her with news of another mission. The group had a very odd composition, at least at face-value, but the potential between all of them made more and more sense as she made her way to join them. 

At their meeting point, she saw Twitch and Clotho were already gathered. They were to capture a dwarven mine embedded in the mountains and rid it of its inhabitants. They would be in close quarters, which should be fairly easy for this group: a closed tunnel system would mean paths would be limited, and the outpost would be littered with choke-points. 

[color=teal][b]"This mission sounds easy enough: painting mines with the blood of dwarves and capture a few strays, if I'm not mistaken. I may be over-simplifying this, but entrapment and execution seems like a quick job between all of us."[/b][/color]

She turned to Clotho, essentially a military commander of insects with a grotesque appearance: [color=teal][b]"It would seem that if you begin flooding the entrances, all the rest of us need to do is begin inciting the chaos. I can seek out the larger areas of congregation with their caverns, like resting and dining areas, and throw some suggestions into the minds of their heads of security. From there, That will bring chaos to these large groups."[/b][/color]

[b]Ekusha[/b] then faced Twitch, who has already validated himself before the rest of the group with the last raid: [color=teal][b]"You should direct the advance. Other than their intelligence and utility, I know nothing of dwarven culture or structure. Your own eyes on the ground will likely be able to spot more detail than any of us."[/b][/color]
