"I could've killed him, do not insult me. But Arhaina would have been killed, too. Kalon has bound his soul to her's. I used it as weakness, inflicted pain upon her in an attempt to get him to sever the bond, but it was not enough." Mordain turned and stared into the mountains. "Now they're up there... somewhere." |

"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. | |

Mordain turned back to face him. "He has linked their souls. Whatever he feels, she feels. And vice-versa. She is his greatest weakness at the moment, and I tried to exploit that weakness. But it was not enough." |

"You - but Mordain, we came here to rescue Arhaina, not to hurt her! What were you thinking?!" |

Mordain took a step towards Elandir. "Kalon and Arhaina are linked. Given the choice between hurting Kalon and seeing Arhaina take the consequences, or hurting Arhaina and seeing Kalon take the consequences, I chose the latter! Kalon's pain threshold is great; it would've been all too easy to push Arhaina too far if I'd gone for him. That's what I was thinking!" |

"To what extent? You're supposed to be one for using your head, Elandir. Bring her here and Kalon would've put her through agony." He paused, turning to look back at the mountains. "No. The safest place for her to be is with that... that monster." |

"But Drathmor is defeated! All of Weissland is able to search Kalon out and defeat his armies, but Arhaina! What happens if Cyrredlues decides this bond is more of a weakness than a strength? He probably used it to get at you in the first place!" |

Mordain shook his head. "This is about Lathaon, not me. He wasn't expecting to see me." He turned back to Elandir. "And he won't come to that conclusion, I assure you. Arhaina is his safety net against Lathaon, his insurance policy. He is not the type to welcome death. He will not kill Arhaina, for doing so would end his life." |

"I don't understand," Elandir said. "If he knows about Lathaon, why didn't he just kill Arhaina in the first place? She was my only hope of restoring him." |

"Lathaon has escaped the Plane of Death. Presumably, Kalon believes he needs leverage to kill our former Archmage. Arhaina can provide that." |

"He has? Well, do you have any way to locate him?" Elandir asked. "Last I saw, he was as black as coal and bleeding through to this plane. If he has returned, he might need our help." |

Mordain shook his head. "No, I do not. Formally, I would've tracked him using the magical scent of Naxxtia. But obviously that won't work anymore." |

Mordain nodded. "Yes, I could. I will return to Asulien and see to that. For now, I trust you and your men can handle the mess here." Mordain did not wait for a reply. He lifted himself into the air and began his flight back towards Asulien. As he flew, however, he dropped low to grab a strong branch from a tree. --Leaves Dark Elf Camp-- --Enters Asulien-- |

"Loot the bodies and the camp," Elandir said. "We need all the gold, weaponry and supplies we can get." The handful of mercenaries scattered, searching the nearby bodies. "Zach..." Elandir began. "I'm glad to see you survived all this. My friend, you have become a real veteran and as good a second-in-command as I could ask for. I think it is time we discussed the future. The war is over, but there is no guarantee that Lathaon will return to his position as archmage, even if he has survived, and so there is no guarantee that we can remain in Weissland's service as an individual faction." "Are you proposing that we disband?" Zach asked. "Let that be a last resort only," Elandir said. He smiled then. "For now, I say we help Lathor win their war. Then-" "Elandir?" Renaulin interrupted. "Why not leave them to fight? Without Cyrredlues to keep Rathor united, the high elves will win." "Perhaps, perhaps not. In any case, leaving them alone would simply be leaving them to die." "But the dark elf soldiers are merely following orders - you know that. You want to end the war? Go to Rathor. The war will have upset the balance between the Lords. If we were to tip that balance, the others would almost certainly return to Rathor and in the chaos, it would be easy enough to dispose of the less civilised Lords and set Rathor on the road to truce." |

Elandir took his time answering. "Very well. I will trust your judgement. But we will need more men. Is Ulrin still around? And is he still on my side? And Brae, will you offer your support?" |

Brae thought for some time. There was a lot going on. "When would we leave? I have been gone some time from Asulien, and would like to see what has happened there before we leave." |

"If Ulrin is both alive and your ally then he will be in Asulien," Renaulin said. "In light of that, it might be best if we returned there to gather the men." "Then it is settled," Elandir said. "We will return to Asulien first. I do not intend to delay there for long, however. Brae, you will have as long as it takes me to prepare a reasonable force in order to find out what you need to know, and to make your decision." |

Brae only nodded. Returning to Asulien was what he had wanted; there was nothing for him to add. |
