The foul lightning struck Korth. The magical shielding he had in place took the brunt of the assault, but then shattered; Korth was struck with the remaining strength of the spell, which was sufficient to send him to the ground, his body steamining as he breathed heavily. As the magic struck Korth however, Brae had launched himself forward and thrown a dagger at Ithrain, striking him in his lower back. |

"It really is amazing; she killed Kelan Wealer, not that I am complaining, but then the order welcomed her as their new leader.

Ithrain lurched forward in pain and felt blood trickle down his back. Whatever Drathmor had done to him, it seemed the mage lord was still at least partly mortal after all. The druid was recovering quickly. Ithrain chose a simple spell, one which even Elandir could have done. He masked his escape with a thick smokescreen and forced himself to walk away. By the time the smoke cleared, even the wounded Ithrain was nowhere to be found. |

Korth climbed to his feet, sniffing the air for the scent of his quarry. It would seem that the mage had made-good his escape. He turned sharply towards the men, baring his teeth. "Why was that foul sorcerer after you?" he roared. |

Elandir was still asleep, but Vrack offered his opinion. "That was Ithrain, one of the council mages. It would seem that he has betrayed Weissland - and from the looks of it, he wanted to take Elandir alive." |

Korth moved over to the sleeping Elandir and sniffed him briefly before morphing back to his elven form. He chanted a simple spell to lift the curse that kept Elandir bound to his slumber. "Tell me, where are you travelling to?" he asked. |

Korth arched an eyebrow. "And where would that be?" |

Korth gave one final, inquisitive look at the elf and then morphed into an owl. He disappeared from sight all-too-quickly. As the druid departed, Brae only smiled. |

"Will he follow us do you think?" Elandir asked. "Actually, I don't suppose it matters. Let's go." |

"Well, I could use some answers, answers to the questions he was asking. Where are we heading, and what are we doing?" asked Brae curiously. |

"We're going to head back to the camp. From there, I'll have a group of the men begin their march and bring them in closer to Endral. That gives them a chance to scout the area and bring back information on the enemy defenses and numbers," Elandir said. "Now that Arhaina is healed, I will pursue my original plans. We're going to find out exactly what happened to the archmage and reverse it if possible. "On top of that, Lathor is going to need some orders to prepare itself for the invasion, and there's the navy to contact. Now, I'm no expert on war at sea, so I'll have to appoint a commander or at least an advisor. "My men will need payment. I have enough stashed away for now, but without the archmage's support, I can't afford to keep them all in service for long. For that reason, I need to attack the Shattered Sword soon, while I still can. "One more thing. I know the vault of the Mystic Tower was emptied and the contents were being taken north by the Seekers. If there is even the slightest chance that any of the items could help aid the archmage or at least shed some light on his situation, I need them." Vrack spoke now, before Brae had the chance. "About the money. I... was happy with the direction you put this organisation in and if we continue fighting for such a purpose, I'm with you to the end," he said, bowing his head. "Even if it means we can barely afford to eat, we'll at least be heroes, not thieves or murderers. I think I can speak for Jarlson and Amakiir when I say that, too." |

Brae stayed silent as his companions spoke, but his face changed noticeably when Elandir mentioned the archmage. "But... wouldn't that mean going back to Ataya?" |

"If that is what it takes, then yes," Elandir said, nodding. "But not yet. I will not go until I know what has to be done." |

"I'll send a spell sphere to have a look at him, first," he said, and then lowered his voice. "Then I'll see if Arhaina can shed some light on it. Looked like the archmage had planned whatever spell backfired on him; if there is anything he never told me, she would know." Elandir walked over to where the stretcher was and he and Vrack picked Arhaina up again. "Then I will call together all the experts I have on magic and anything relevant. I recently made some new allies, some of which might know, or know how to find, information on the forbidden lore. If that still holds no answers, I'll go to Lathor. With Ataya gone, the greatest library Weissland has is in Anubien." |

Reluctantly, Brae nodded. "Ok. Then lead on, Elandir." |

He did so without another word. Eventually, after they had been walking for some time, Vrack broke the silence. "You know, if we don't win this war, Elandir, what use would gold really be if any of us even escaped death?" "Useless, I know," Elandir said. "We need it to keep everyone fighting, but when the end comes, for better or worse, there'll be no more war. Quite possibly it will mean the end of our professions and lifestyles." Vrack nodded slowly. "I understand." They were near the camp now. |
