Chapter 16 - The Darkblood's Plan

"everyone come he is here!" says an old man in a dark cloak to the others wearing the same. All of the people part of the cult gathered together whispering to each other

"is he finally here or is it one of his loyal subjects,"

"hush you fool and listen".

There was a man dressed in a black suit with a white tie and a woman standing beside him in a fancy white dress. They both stand up leaning on a gold railing that leads down a slipt staircase one to the left and one to the right. The man begins to speak monotone

"Hello all, it is such a pleasure to see you"

Everyone stood quiet and was just eagerly listening to him no matter what way he spoke because they knew his news would be big.

"The reason why the master has sent me here,"

"is because there have been some complications regarding two of our members we have lost". The woman intervenes

"These members were part of our strongest group"

"but the master has stated what would be are next commission".

All the people looked at each other and started smirking at each other devilishly as one of the men in the group shouted

"Miss who are those two people that we see to be missing"

"It is the one that claimed to be a halfling,"

"and the man who was let go with our very first sacrifice".

All the people starting talking and the room became loud. Both the man and women began talking besides getting annoyed by the people's ignorance.

"There is someone else missing," says the man speaking to the woman

"ah, yes there he is".

he points towards the doors as they open from the dome they gather in.

"I am ba-aack!"

Grith enters in, he starts skipping up the stairs with a ridiculous smile on his face then bowing in front of them as the crowd applauses with laughter. Once again people became quite listening to him.

"Everyone look I haven't got her yet, but I was so close"

"I mean I could have had her here with us" he continues

"I blame the idiot who let the first guy go" he starts laughing like a clown.

"What happened" everyone questioned

"let's just say he helped her get away" he starts laughing again but this time it sounded as if he was scowling at his words.

"That being said sir, what is are commission the master has told?"

"It's is quite simple actually to kill them all," says the man

All the people started laughing devilishly once again looking at each other eye-to-eye standing in the middle of the empty space of the dome. The man and woman disappeared holding hands together in laughter. As Girth watches them leave laughing with them...
