"Xai'an, of the Chiroi who haunt the lightless depths, for one."
The answer came from a newcomer and made Azmun turn his head to see a woman entering the room. He grinned. Normally he wouldn't consider a female to be a worthy combatant, however this one claimed to be part of the Chiroi and if it is true then she has Azmun's respect. He recalled seeing her on occasion in the courtyard, training the new recruits. He sensed she was a daemon but only now does he know what kind of daemon she is. How intriguing... he thought and then stood up from his chair facing Xai'an "Then I, Azmun of the Chaos Flame welcome your blade. At my side as well as against mine own" he grinned and then seated himself back as the topic of their task continued.
It turns out that killing the king was out of the question as the rest were afraid of leaving a kingdom in turmoil. Azmun sighed deeply at hearing that. Kings come and go like the leaves from a tree, if a kingdom and their people will be plunged into chaos if their leader is killed then it simply means they were weak and deserve their fate. were his thoughts but he decided to keep them to himself as there wasn't really anything he could do against it if the Master of Contracts specifically stated that the king is to not be killed. This was one of the few times that Azmun cursed the Contract he was under. In the end they had to persuade the king to surrender by what was written in a treaty signed by the 3 kings.
Xai'an was the one trusted to carry the contract which would probably also make her the quote-un-quote leader of this merry band of hell-spawns. No objections came from Azmun in this regard, he would gladly leave diplomacy to whoever fancied himself or herself more skilled. Herunes excused himself from the rest for whatever reasons, Jason kept his silence which only reinforced and confirmed Azmun's beliefs at how green this boy-templar is. Malvo however asked a valid question, what should they do if the king decides to ignore the treaty and back down on his word. Azmun chuckled loudly to that."I will start burning his limbs one after the other until he swears whatever oath we want him to swear. he then hinted at Xai'an "..or perhaps the lady may grace us with a demonstration the famous Chiroi torture methods. he then returned his attention to Malvo "Or, maybe you could teach him why doctors are so important to have around my good sir. Azmun then spread his arms wide as if asking for a hug and stated in a smug and confident tone
"We are Daemons who can conjure up pain and suffering the likes these mortals cannot imagine. I doubt 'negotiation' will be an issue."
