[QUOTE="Olgar Shiverstone, post: 1250514, member: 5868"] [b]Interlude -- the Quaan[/b] Hedrack smiled wryly as the magical contact gradually faded, then was suddenly broken. [i]So Kikanuile has failed in her mission[/i], he thought to himself,[i] such a pity. It's getting so difficult to find reliable agenst these days. At least she confirmed that the path to the Grail was fully open.[/i] "Well?" came the sibilant hiss from the shadows. "A minor setback, but the way is clear for the recovery team, who was lurking nearby. We'll have it within days. Those meddling fools from the church of Lathander will have to be dealt with, though. At least they did us the favor of eliminating some of the competition in the process." The only response from the shadows was silence. [b]Five days later[/b] What began as a murky shimmering in the air soon coalesced into a many-armed and -legged form of featureless grey, which quickly gained detail as blotches of color oozed through the greyness. A goblin, thin and wiry, leaped down from the back of the spider, carrying two too-large bundles under his arms. The creature lurched forward, kneeling at the base of the throne, and thrust the blocky bundle under his right arm toward Hedrack. "The Grail, my lord! The humans and their pets left the way clearas they departed; it was no matter to trace Kikanuile's path and recover it." Hedrack nodded, taking the wrapped object. "You have done well, and shall be rewarded, both of you. And what is that that you carry?" "I bring an additional gift!" the goblin replied. "Your humble servant sends it with his regards!" He thrust forward a thin bundle, longer than he was tall, wrapped in gold-trimmed white linens. Hedrack threw his head back and cackled. "With all their bumbling, they serve me in the end! You may go!" The goblin nodded, quickly surrying back to the spider and remounting. Within seconds, he had faded to greyness and was gone. Hedrack motioned to the shadows beyond the throne. "Fate, it seems, is not without a sense of irony ..." In the shadows, white, pointed teeth grinned in a rictus of death. [/QUOTE]
