Across Eternity: Book 5 - Chapter 5

... dealings with her brother?” a succubus asked, wrapped in her wings.

“Yes, we traded relics and artifacts,” said Curcio. “I myself made off like a bandit, if I do say so myself.”

“If her power is as great as the stories say, it’s no wonder the prince is making such strides,” said Tysinger.

“The other is someone you’ve already met: Noah, the Wandering Spirit,” the man at the end said.

Tysinger’s brow furrowed. “Lord Scyler, that’s impossible. I reduced him to ash myself.”

“Apparently not, his presence has been confirmed, and he’s assisting the prince. He has created a poison that works against our troops, and he’s captured several mid-level members of the Pack, including Dradam.”

“Ugh, sloppy,” the female ghoul said.

“I remember that name,” said the succubus. “He was in Sylphtoria when my Leanne was performing her mission. He’s the reason why it all fell through.”

“Who is this man anyway?” the split-jaw ghoul asked.

“A knight of Uther, and the rumors about him are… well it’s difficult to tell fact from fiction,” said another male ghoul, towering over the others with his lanky body. “I know that there is a price of a hundred gold coins on him, and he slaughtered an army of bounty hunters and piled their heads in front of a church in Colbrand. He also tortured the two other Uther princes, one to the point of attempting suicide. Tysinger, you faced him, what’s he like?”

His words sent a shiver through everyone.

“My creations are supposed to be foolproof,” said Curcio angrily. “No one could make a poison against them in so short a time.”

“According to our double-agents, he’s unlocked the secrets of the Enochian technology. He is no ordinary human,” said Scyler.

“We should assume that the Pack members will talk when questioned. Everything they know, Uther will soon know,” the spider woman said.

“Tell Kaisen that it is time to move up the schedule. If his whelps want more power, they’re going to have to earn it,” Scyler declared.

“And what of the interlopers?” the split-jaw ghoul asked.

“They’ll either join us or die.”

It was a quiet night, lit only by a sliver of the moon. A wagon caravan was traveling down a forest path, but no torches or candles were burning. Monsters were not enough to invoke such caution; the fiends guarding the wagons could defeat any creature roaming the lands. What they feared was detection from people. Therefore, the beastmen, corrupted and not, focused on their sense of smell. Every time the wind shifted, they checked for any scents that didn’t belong. Everything was fine. Everything was still. Until it ...
