Valor sighed as he saw the distinct lack of armoured wolf. "He'll have to come back for his helmet..."
Firefly realized that an important piece of his equipment is missing. He left his helmet behind.
Dammit... I need my helmet back. Firefly whispers to himself before returning back to Valor and the others. Something felt different inside Firefly after Valor sucked away his corrupted aura. He couldn't figure out what was different. He returns back to the group.Meanwhile... {the dark Fortress of Lord Malric}
I sense Commander Firefly has failed me... He should've returned.Malric says in a calm voice, talking to a guard in his throne room
Do you think the commander fell in battle?The guard says, lowering his head respectfully
No... He's still alive, I can sense his life force. However, I fear Valor has influenced him, made him soft... Made him weakMalric says in a dark subtle tone
What are your orders, M'lord? The guard says looking up at Malric
I know where Valor is hiding, it would be easy to kill them all... But I want to have a little funMalric says playfully, his left hand igniting with fire while his right hand ignites with water
I'll assemble the army, We'll hunt down any and all traitorsThe guard says standing up
No... I'll send my assassinMalric says smiling, a figure approaches behind the guard and stabs him in the back
Agggh!The guard shrieks before falling over dead, The assassin standing over him
Lord Malric, you have a job for me?The assassin says in a high pitched tone. His face concealed by a scarf, his chest covered in shurikens and throwing knives. The assassin appears very slender and nimble.
You're the best assassin in the entire northern kingdom, I have a mission for you... My loyal Commander Firefly has betrayed us and he's with an old friend... "Valor". Your primary objective is to steal an important spellbook that Firefly failed to accomplish. Your secondary objective, kill anyone who stands in your wayI always complete my mission... And I always kill my target. Your wish is my command.The assassin smiles, turning around and leaving the room. Heading towards Valor, Firefly and the others. When the Assassin leaves the room Malric begins to whisper to himself
With an army of 10,000 wolves, I will dominate these lands... With or without that bookMalric chuckles to himself, staring at the dead guard that the assassin killed.
