Trouble-trouble-on-the-double!~     Ordechai was sprawled on his bed of furs, snoring fitfully, completely incapacitated by the Quresh' fabled aqua-vitae. Also known as the 'drink of demons' for its hangovers were often described as a living hell.Bax: Kneeled beside his master, tugging on his tunic while speaking, "Master! Master!" ...to no avail. Ordechai only groaned with indignation and pulled a fur across his face. ~Forgive me master!~ Bax hoped inwardly as he grasped Ordechai's hand, biting into its flesh with his sharp-goblin-teeth! A roar of pain was heard an instant before Bax was physically thrown out of Ordechai's tent, tumbling and rolling across the sand screeching with consternation. The one-eyed half dwarf stumbled from the tent momentarily thereafter, hammer in hand, blinking with a terrible headache trying to ascertain the emergency. Alic: ~No names Wrenwil, you old fool!~ Alic cursed inwardly, heart beating like a drum, hands gripped tightly on his axe and shield, ready to spring to the named ones defense if need be. Ordechai: Gasped, focusing in on the slaughter of Svexyn's camp. ~Asusk! Forgive me friend! I should have heeded your warning better about the Quresh!~ Meanwhile, the scene of the honorable chivalan knight striding towards the despicable Barossan duelist, backdropped by flames, was surely the thing of songs... indeed, the villain with the rapier seems to tremble before Kryslogious.  Drasus: ~It must be him!~ The Barossan admitted with a shudder. All artiface stripped from his persona like a shadow retreating from a flame.Drasus steps towards Kryslogious with reverence instead of malice, reaching up to pull the long dark hair from his head, revealing it was actually a wig all-along! His eyes are suddenly not blue, but gold, as he kneels to one knee and speaks in the unmistakable accent of the Quresh."My lord Kryslogious! You have returned exactly as foretold! Everything is going to plan, your brothers from Chival have already landed their fleet! I am Saraesh Hussayn, spy-master of the Aluja Expanse. In the name of the true lord, the demon-king Herod, I welcome you!"________________________________________________<End of Scene 5></blockquote>
