What surprised Darius though, was that by the time they made camp for the night, they had yet to see a single Adept undead monster. Mikey and Joneson also couldn't sense any nearby at all, making Darius come up with an interesting theory.
Stonekeeper Marasmus should be currently under siege by all the bigwigs of Andrato, right? If they had not perished, it should be that the Adepts here had gone to assist the Stonekeeper's defense.
If so, it would only serve to bring Darius's plans forward, as he would have to visit the forward camp and integrate himself.
After all, what was the point of gathering so many Adepts here if he wasn't the one to galvanize these resources? As for convincing them to follow his directives, it should be easy with his abilities and charisma.
