Adrian, shocked and enraged, clenched his fists. "Uncle Avargan, I didn't expect you to actually show yourself. The truth will be revealed, and your schemes will come to an end."
Avargan chuckled, his voice resonating with a sinister undertone. "Schemes, my dear nephew? I prefer to call it playing the game. You know how the saying goes – 'all's fair in love and war.'"
Reign, Nayle, Aragos, and the rest of the group remained on guard, realizing the gravity of the situation. The presence of the elusive Avargan and his association with Elyndor added layers to the complex conspiracy they were unraveling.
Elyndor spoke, his tone mocking, "You were always so close to the truth, Adrian, yet blind to the realities around you. Your kingdom, the Elais Kingdom, are both mere pawns in the grand design."
Reign, with a stern expression, demanded answers. "What is this 'grand design' you speak of? Why manipulate two kingdoms into a senseless war?"
