Shaellana shot her eyes to the newcomer. Instantly, she rose and turned away from him. Her hands were at her sides, engulfed in flames. |

Nathaniel stood up slowly and dusted off his robes, more to take the time to compose himself than anything else. He said to Shaellana "If you need to speak to me, I'm sure you'll be able to find me. Whatever you need. I suppose I must be going now." He turned to the Royal Guardsman and spoke "Lead on young man." |

The Guardsman turned and wordlessly led Nathaniel back to the Palace. Inside, as many of the mage lords as could be found had assembled. ((Gorfang, could you RP the mage lords? I have no idea who they are ))

((And you think I do? Ariakas made like a billion of them!
))Nathaniel walked in behind the Guardsman, seeing the mage lords assembled within the palace. He had to wonder why he was here with them. What was this, the monks wanted rid so soon? Perhaps they thought the mage lords would make him stay his hand if he was provoked. Amongst the group he say mage lord Boralays and gave his old mentor a curt nod. Boralays smiled thinly back, he looked worn out. Drakkon noticed Tidurion was there, sitting in a chair for the time being, not fully recovered from the battle. But the elf stood up when he saw Nathaniel enter, and nodded with a smile. Nathaniel blanked him and continued on into the room. Mage lord Solo Fryysen stood at the head of the group, his grey eyes still bright and strong. Clearly the battle had not brought him to a low ebb. He stood proud and tall, the mage lord stationed in Asulien, his staff in one hand and the other held behind his back as he waited. Nathaniel saw in a huddle, the mage lords Mistrandar, Amalrith and Vedgar, talking quietly amongst themselves while they had awaited his arrival. When they saw him they stopped talking, no doubt waiting for the King and whatever this meeting was about. The final mage lord to make up the group was Andros, standing roughly in-between Fryysen and the huddle of Mistrandar and his friends. |

"Thank you all of you for coming," said James. "I have just finished discussing with the Lords and Generals about rebuilding this country and the military, but I needed to talk with all of you as well. Our country lies greatly wounded. A full quarter of the population is dead and much of the south is destroyed. Now I admit I know little about the mage lords or their purpose, as I am a soldier and little more, so I was hoping you all could enlighten me, and talk with me about Weissland's future." |

Mage lord Fryysen took the lead "The purpose of the mage lords is various my Liege. In the simplest of terms we act as officers for the mages, as well as instructors for new mages. Mage lords are also stationed in the cities of Weissland to act as advisors to the cities rulers and allow for fast, efficient communication from city to city via the use of spell spheres. I for instance, am the mage lord assigned to Asulien, while mage lord Tidurion there" He motioned to the elf in the bright green robes who nodded reverently to the King "was for a time, assigned to the city of Valoruin before he returned to the mystic tower of Ataya." As Fryysen stopped talking, the very old and powerful mage Andros began to speak "I would also say there is another important purpose for the mage lords. We study and advance knowledge of magic, learning more of its uses, and passing this on to the lower mages." |

James nodded. "I never was very trusting of magic," said James, and then he laughed. "A result of living in the Realm for so long, no doubt. But this war really has changed my mind. Weissland is lucky to have you all on its side. So, Fryysen, is it? You are the mage lord assigned to Asulien? Who is the leader of the mages?" |

Fryysen nodded "Yes my Liege, I am Solo Fryysen." Solo had pale skin and long, straight white hair. He continued "The leader of the mages is the Archmage. Without Archmage Lathaon, the highest ranking of us is his cousin, Lord Mordain Thaendil. Whether he will take on the title of Archmage, I cannot say." Amalrith said "I do not know if that is wise." Some voices rose up in agreement and disagreement but Andros quietened them all down as a clear voice of authority and reason "This is not the time to trouble the King with our debates, nor is it a debate we have any say in. I believe that is something you, my Liege, as King would need to discuss with Lord Mordain alone." Nathaniel remained quiet, knowing that the mage lords likely did not know what he had become aware of. |

Andros replied "Someone else will have to take the position, from amongst the mage lords. I would not presume to say who or tell what should be done, but I would suggest that all the mage lords, including those in the other cities of Weissland such as those in the west and north would be required to convene a meeting to discuss this. And the council should have a hand in it as well, if the council itself will still exist after the losses taken in this war." |

James nodded. "The Council will remain, advising me, but many spots will have to be filled. The Army and the Order of Light have suffered great losses, as I'm sure the mages have also. We all need to help rebuild Weissland in this time of healing. Thank you all for coming. All of you may leave, but Nathaniel Drakkon...would you please stay?" |

Nathaniel looked up, but stood still. The mage lords bowed to the King and began to file out, one or two at a time. The last to leave were mage lords Fryysen and Andros, walking side by side. Some of the mage lords had given Nathaniel odd looks as they left, perhaps unsure why he was present at the meeting and no other surviving mages were. Once they had gone, Nathaniel took a few steps forward to stand before the King. |

"You're probably wondering why I called you here," said James. "The only mage amongst the mage lords. I remembered what you said at the trial, about those who kept watch over Weissland secretly. I would like to thank you for your service, and would like to ask a favor of you as well." |

"I need you to contact your members, and tell them to be on the watch for Mordain Thaendil and Shaellana," said James. "Tell them that the monks of Aracen will be trailing those two, and to hinder the monks wherever possible and however possible, except open confrontation. Can you do that for me?" |

Marr and Zeal had come to meet with Shaellana, in a back alley of the city, out of sight and out of earshot. "You called for us?" asked Zeal, the old Dragon Lord still standing in his splendid robes. Shaellana nodded. Marr took a step forward, a worried expression coming over him. "What's wrong?" "Mordain has been banished." she said. "What?!" exclaimed Marr. Shaellana held up a hand. "Marr, please. I've cried enough over this." "What will happen?" asked Zeal. "I will travel with him, wherever he should choose to go. You, Marr, will have to take over many of his roles within Weissland. I am appointing you with Mordain's former position, as head of law enforcement for Weissland. This order comes from Mordain too, not just me. We have given this thought. Brae can take my place as High Seeker." Marr nodded. "And what of me?" asked Zeal. "I was hoping you would remain in Weissland, to help Marr and Brae." said Shaellana in a kindly voice. The Dragon Lord nodded. "Of course, Shaellana. Anything for the two of you." "Thank you, both of you. When Brae returns, tell him of this, if we do not see him before we leave." |

"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. One of the Last Guardians. Suck it. | |
