Are you two done yet?
Aaron shrugged. It was night, Sean was asleep, but Valter kept on asking questions.
All the way until he was asleep as well...
It was morning. Dameus woke, not Sean this time. Aaron wasn't awake yet, but his mouth twitched with more questions.
Scorn!
...Mmphg...?...DAMEUS! Thank gods!! They were boring me to DEATH!
That's just dandy, WHERE'S MY HELMET?? Dameus asked eagerly. He felt exposed!! His head, naked!!
Oh... ehh... I have no clue.
WHAT!!
Dameus silently got up, throwing his cloak over his head as a hood, and searched everywhere for his helmet.
"Mmgh...Mmfmm..."
Where was it!! Where?!
...
THERE!! Dameus darted for it and the cape flew off his head, the helmet slipping back on snugly just like he was used to...
Aaah...
"Dameus? No!! Why did you have to come back?"
Excuse me?
"I want to talk to my brother!"
Believe me, he doesn't feel up to it. You talked him nearly to death... Just like me, ehh...
Scorn chuckled and turned his head aside.
"That's not funny, coming from you."
Dameus sighed and shook his head.
So, let us begin planning...
"Planning what?"
...Scorn, help me...
"So, that's the plan? Hide a bunch, sneak a lot, pounce on the Emperor's back and kill him?"
Pretty much.
"What nonsense are you talking about??"
...Nonsense?
"Yes, nonsense!! You're the worst tactitian I've ever heard words come from!"
You try it, then.
Oh my gods...
Scorn and Dameus spoke in unison, unable to take their eyes off of Aaron.
That was... brilliant...
"So, you two understand the plan?"
Dameus nodded, Scorn blinked.
"Good..." Aaron's chuckle drifted off into silence.
Dameus beckoned him towards Scorn and both mounted his neck, walking up his arms. Once atop him, Scorn readied and walked out into the open, taking off into distant stormy clouds.
but there, from the shadows emerged a figure, holding a scythe in her hand.
I will keep my eyes on all three of you...
The first night out of about a month... maybe two... three, perhaps.
This would be no easy feat.
They would have to hide. Dameus told Aaron how the Emperor would send out shadowscouts, shadowclan only they were watching and searching for Dameus.
Aaron agreed that would be likely, and so they devised a plan to hide somewhere.
Somewhere they wouldn't look to find him. Where would that be?
Somewhere Dameus hasn't been in a long time... Somewhere... unaccessable to the Emperor...
Somewhere...
close to home.
But no... Dameus would not dare go there.
He refused to return home until he found the one reason he became a Draconic Siegemaster. The one reason he took serve under leige, and that reason was the theft of Elasia's quintessence...
The thought of that kept him silent for the slightest few moments, but he continued planning with his frien-... partner.
They would instead hide within the Dark Woodland.
From there, they would train eachother. Then would come the hard part, sneaking on the emperor himself...
Bless us, Lady Luck...
