IC response to the following...
Frontier City of Delagund, Duchy of Vedlund
Lord Noran's capital, Delagund could barely be called a city, at least not by someone used to the Azgundi capital. Rain stained wooden walls, barely ten feet tall, surrounded the modest settlement, closing in the shops and homes of the folk eking out an existence under the looming threat of orcs from the mountains. The town's garrison of armed guards and patrols were fully manned...unlike the other duchies of Azgund, most of which barely had enough soldiers to man the walls. But the troops of Vedlund had an uneasy look to them. They were there in defiance of the King. By order of Lord Noran, they had not gone to war...and most of them feared the repercussions to come.
Ahote found himself approaching the walled town in mid afternoon, sensing the tension emanating from the walls like the waves of heat emanating from the sun overhead.
Hrugnir is within those walls, having recently returned from a border patrol. His patrol sergeant had just informed him that Lord Noran himself wanted to speak with Hrugnir in the Lord's Keep.
Phaidadru's human uncle, a sergeant in Lord Noran's militia, has been busy of late, leaving Phai on his own more often than not. Today is no different, except that Phai's uncle left that morning with a sense of urgency. Something was happening, something that had his uncle anxious.
Shajrom had awakened that morning to find a message waiting for him. Shajrom's work for Lord Noran had earned him an audience with the Lord himself, this very day in the Lord's Keep.
The Capital City of Azgund
The capital city is a sprawling metropolis, having overgrown the city walls on at least two occassions. Nonetheless, defense is of paramount important, with troops not sent to the Emiran front lines patrolling the city streets and keeping a watchful eye. The King's Palace upon the Hill is particularly well defended, its multi-tiered structure home to a garrison of a hundred troops.
Kae'Ari finds herself invited to an audience with the King's strategic advisors within those palace walls. It is mid afternoon and the blazing heat outside makes the cool interior of the palace a welcome comfort. The King's grand hall is decorated with tapestries, plush couches and pillows, servants offering wine, and many other luxuries. Seated on one of those couches is the Emiran ambassador and his daughter. Entering from the back of the palace is a young Azgundi man of obvious noble birth.
Keefe's uncle, whom he had rarely seen since the beginning of the war, had sent word through his advisors that Keefe was to be present for a meeting with a representative of the Healing Light this afternoon, as well as the Emiran ambassador. Keefe thus found himself in the grand hall, witnessing the entrance of an angel.
Nyrazha's father had been invited to attend a meeting in the palace this day, and thus Nyrazha found herself in the grand hall as well, seated next to her father, the Emiran ambassador, as the angel entered. Her father lets out a low murmur in the Emiran tongue, "The King brings potent allies. His motives I begin to question...what are his intentions for our land after Thay is defeated. Hmm."
