Nathaniel said "Do you know things which nobody else does? Are you entrusted with secrets which you are honour-bound, duty-bound to keep?"

"My only loyalties are to Weissland. There are secrets that others are not allowed to know." He leaned even closer, the dark shroud of his hood mere inches from Nathaniel's face. "But there is no knowledge concerning Weissland that is forbidden to me."
"Stand against me if you must, for of course you will. Conflict is just another part of this flawed reality. You need to cling to your concepts and purposes, your feeble honour and glory. None of it serves any purpose in the end. And the end draws close." - Krodalis Thaendil.

"It really is amazing; she killed Kelan Wealer, not that I am complaining, but then the order welcomed her as their new leader. It makes one wonder if I were to ram a blade down her throat, would the monks then follow my commands?" - Mordain Thaendil.

Nathaniel said "I only have my loyalty to Wiessland. And there are secrets which others are not allowed to know." He spoke, not intimidated in the slightest "But there are things which even you are not allowed to know."

Mordain sighed and rose to his full height, turning his back on Nathaniel. "The darker needs of Weissland are mine to fulfil. Much of what I do is evil, but it is a necessary evil." He turned back to face the man. "You tell me that you are innocent of what you have been charged with, but you claim that you do know something, something that I cannot know? This, I do not accept. If what you know does not put your loyalty to Weissland into forefit, then why keep it from me?"
"Stand against me if you must, for of course you will. Conflict is just another part of this flawed reality. You need to cling to your concepts and purposes, your feeble honour and glory. None of it serves any purpose in the end. And the end draws close." - Krodalis Thaendil.

Nathaniel sighed "Weissland has existed much longer than either of us have been alive. Our parents, grandparents and far beyond have not been here before Weissland was. These are not my rules, I have to follow them. It is not for me to simply change them at a whim. If you were involved, you would already know. Since you do not, I can only conclude that you are not involved. My loyalty is to Weissland, and only Weissland. But my hands are tied."

Again, the Mage of Shadows sighed. "Then you leave me no choice."

He left the wagon, finding Shaellana and four Seekers outside.

"What did he say, my Lord?" asked Shaellana.

Mordain shook his head. "He won't tell me anything," he looked at Shaellana, "willingly."

The High Seeker nodded; she knew what she had to do.

Nathaniel Drakkon watched Mordain leave. He did not understand. He did not know. Nathaniel should have realised they would never make someone like him a member, it was not their way. He was high profile, not discreet. They stayed in the shadows, unknown, unrecognised. But it was required, it was vital.

Shaellana entered the wagon with a Seeker behind her. She showed no emotion on her face; her expression was cold and devoid of feeling. The Seeker laid an asortment of blades and other torture devices on the floor. Rope was fastened around Nathaniel's shoulders, binding him to a crossbeam behind him. His feet were lashed to two of the legs of the bench he was sitting on.

"It will end when you are ready to tell me what it is you hide, Nathaniel. Do you understand?" said Shaellana, looking down on the man.

Shaellana split the front of his robes open with a touch of her finger, invoking fire magic to quickly burn through the robes.

"Everyone breaks, Nathaniel. Everyone."

She took a blade in her hand and used her magic to superheat it, to the point that it was consumed by a red glow. Then, without the slightest moment of hesitation, she carved the knife across the surface of his bare-chested torsoe.

Nathaniel merely said "Everyone breaks, but you'll break before I do."

Another slash, bringing the tip of the blade slowly across Nathaniel's chest. Shaellana pushed the blade through his skin, but the heat of the blade was so great that the wound was all-but instantly closed as the blade passed. Shaellana could keep this up for a long time without killing the man.

"Ugnh. You can't win you know. You have the limitation of needing to keep me alive to tell you anything. I will die before giving away anything." Nathaniel said.

Still, Shaellana said nothing. She placed her palm against his skin and chanted a spell. Her own skin began to generate incredible heat, to the point that it seared and burned Nathaniel.

Nathaniel tensed, searing pain flashed. He remained calm, quiet. This was a test, one which he would not fail.

Shaellana's torment of the restrained mage continued. Again, she cut through him with her searing dagger and used her magic to further burn his skin. This man was tough; of that, there was no doubt. But, as she had said, everyone breaks. Everyone has a limit.

The pain was getting worse, but Nathaniel fought through it. In his mind he began to go back, going over all the times he had been injured worse. There were a lot of times, perhaps that was to be expected. He used those memories to distance himself from the pain here, finding it a useful tool.

The High Seeker grabbed Nathaniel's head and forced it back. Then, she conjured a black liquid in her hand and let it fill his throat. The liquid coursed through Nathaniel, and as Shaellana commanded it, it began filling his whole body with a terrible burning feeling. Steam began rising from his very skin. The pain was intense.

The High Seeker remained impassive. "Reveal your secrets, Drakkon." She leaned closer. "And don't think that I have to keep you alive. Someone under suspicion can easily be cleared of all charges if they're dead."
