Message: <blockquote data-quote="frostrune" data-source="post: 3030137" data-attributes="member: 12272">Timrin realizes he needs to reassert himself.  You are not used to him being quiet and you had almost forgotten he was there until he speaks."Lady Laeral is not our ally.  Something is not right there and until we figure out what, it is best to leave that situation alone.""If Zarun is likely to win the vote for Open Lord I suggest we see if we can make contact with the hidden lords, if any remain alive.  I had a full company of trained soldiers on their way here, plus those under the command of the Hidden Shield already.  We have never been fully sactioned and Zarun will most likely do anything he can to block it.  We... no longer have a patron.  For our company to remain within these walls we will need another powerful patron, perhaps several.""The guards of many noble house have been ravaged of late.  Perhaps we can engratiate ourselves with some of them to maintain our charter.""Once that problem is solved.  Then we must DO something.""We may not be able to take on the army in the North but our superior mobility could allow us to bypass the majority of it and take the fight straight to their leaders.  If Dyria has the means to take out one of the Twice-damned, and we can actually locate one of them, I say we do it and do it quickly.  Its one less we need to worry about."Timrin seems focused for the first time in many days.  Too bad the focus appears to be a finely controlled rage.  He wants a fight."Murdock, Shando, and I can move amongst the nobles present at the last party.  There is a more than fair chance several of them were Hidden Lords.  We can explain our plight and try and obtain their favor.  I say we should waste no more than two days.""In the meantime, everyone else can be working toward gathering information on the Northern army.  We can have scouts in the field but I prefer Alethia use her Celestial friends or Banak's teleports.  See what we need to see, locate our enemies, and get out.  Mobilizing our forces will only tip our hand to Zarun and any number of mundane spies.  Magic should work best scrying and other divinations will be invisible to our enemies.""Time to plot a counter-attack."</blockquote>
