Decay and Serpaethia were led to the center of the forrest. There, seated upon an throne made of bones stood their leader, Draith.
Decay and Serpaethia bowed.
"Why have you come to my forest? Why do you disturb me? Are you offering yourselves to be part of my dinner?"
Decay spoke up. "Our master intends to attack the Kingdom of Mizar. And he wants us to recruit the lands men, women, and children into our army so we can defeat Ellonai once and for all."
Draith growled. "Why should I help you? If your master wishes to take over the land I will have no part in it? I am for my own people and we enjoy the little freedom we have!"
Serpaethia then spoke up. "If you aid ussss, our masssster will give you the freedom to go wherever you want without having to worry about the humanssss that hunt you. We promisssse."
"Promise? Ha! Your master's promises are a joke. He promised to serve Ellonai in the first place and now they are bitter enemies."
"Don't inssssult him! If you were in hissss possssition, you would have betrayed Elloni too."
"Yes I would have, but thats not the point. Give me one good reason why I should aid you!"
"Rigel murdered your family! Assssss did hissssss father. You want revenge. You want jussssstice. Ssssso the bessssst way to attack Rigel issss to take control of hisssss Kingdom. Once we've taken the Kingdom, you will be able to have him. And you can torture him as long as you want. And did I mention, Ssssiena?"
"Sienna?" Draith asked.
"Yesss, Sssssienna. Rigel issss going to marry her. If you want him to feel your pain, why don't you kill her the way he killed your family?"
A cruel smiled formed across Draith's face. "Yes. Yes I will kill the girl. But slowly and painfully. And I'll make him watch."
Decay and Serpaethia glanced at each other. Their plan was working.
"Alright I'll join you. But Rigel and Sienna are mine!"
"Of course." said Decay. "Now gather the rest of your kind. Tommorrow we will attack the city of Risjh Glajin."
