"This is not how I wanted things to happen," said James. "But it is how they have to, or at least how they have to appear." |

Drakkon nodded "Things are not always what they appear to be. As always, what is best for Weissland is what must be considered. All anyone can do is choose what they believe is the best course, the right course, and follow it through." |

"There is one other thing," said James. "How many years have you been serving Weissland?" |

Shaellana stood on a balcony, within an inn. She had spent her time walking around aimlessly since speaking with Marr and Zeal. Zeal was with her again, though. He stood with her. "I know of places you could go." he replied. "And do what?" "Make a difference. There are still pools of evil in this world, hidden far too deep for the light of Aracen to find." Shaellana smiled. "I just don't know. Maybe this land isn't worth serving any more." |

"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. | |

((Bugger, maths.)) Nathaniel thought for a moment before saying "As a mage, just over twenty-five years given the time of year. Serving Weissland? Since birth, I'm a Drakkon." |

"Seems a decent amount of time," said James. "I long time to be in the service of one's country. We've lost a lot of good people in this war, and we need more good people to replace them. Honest, unswerving people. Drakkon, I'd like to make you a mage lord." |

Nathaniel hesitated "My Liege, I'm... not so sure that is a good idea. I am what people in Weissland refer to as, a wandering mage, or a travelling mage. I don't like to stay in one place too long, and that is often what mage lords are required to do. More than that, giving the rank of mage lord is the authority of the Archmage. I'll serve regardless, whether I've got a bigger rank or not." He pushed his earlier thoughts to one side, but still they needed more contemplation. |

((Should point out that Gorfang is right. Appointing a Mage Lord is the right of the Archmage. You could appoint a Mage Lord, Rudder, but it would be like Palpatine appointing Anakin to the Jedi Counsil.)) |

((Ah, ok...I didn't know that ))James nodded. "I see. That was something I didn't know. Then that will have to wait; I don't feel that the mages would like me stepping on their toes." |

Nathaniel smiled "Probably not, my Liege. Some of the mage lords can be a sulky, un-cooperative bunch at the best of times. They spend too much time in the tower of Ataya messing about with potions and books and not enough time in the fresh air. Although I think recent events might have shaken them up, so you'll probably get them doing something much more worthwhile like helping to rebuild." |

"I sure hope so," said James. "What about another position?" asked Rebecca. "One not related to the mages, per se." "Like what?" asked James. "You like to travel, correct?" asked Rebecca of Nathaniel. |

Rebecca turned to James and said, "Why not let him do some traveling around Weissland, see to it that the reconstruction efforts are going as planned?" James nodded. "I'm sure Aldron could use some help in the south. How would you like to be Aldron's eyes and ears down there? Someone who travels around and is a real presence making sure everything is going well, someone who won't have to deal with all the administrative work that Aldron will?" |
