During the time of the day,a man walked into the council as his shoes clattered on the floor as he made his way through the hall of the council.
He stopped on of the guards who was working for the council"you there, where can I find the head council man "he said with arrogance, since it was one of the ornaments the vampires carried around.
apparently the guard did nothing mind, infact he was delighted that he could be useful to the vampire "umm... he is attending to some matters in the court room..... "but before he could finish speaking the man was already heading towards the direction of the court room.As he watched the vampire leave, he could not help but wonder why the man looked so familiar.
"welky , what are you doing standing in the corridor like a statue " another council man who was passing by and saw the guard talking to council man zephy.
" council man Arthur " he said as give him deep bow "greetings , I was on my way to your office, I was told to deliver these to you " and he handed over some parchments to him.
He took the parchments from him and shuffle it over as he read through the content " are these all the reports " he asked and closed the file to look at guard who was lost in his own though .
"yes council man Arthur, the next report will be delivered next week Tuesday " he replied.
"okay, I will be on my way then..... o before I forget, tell Jason to see me in my office" and he
walked away leaving the guard to his work.
on his way to his office , Evand could not help but worry about what council man zephy was doing here " I thought he was in the north what matter could have made he travel such distance just to come here" he said to him self out loud.
In the court room were Rowan was listening to the matter which was brought in a while ago about the farmers were complaining that the taxes being payed by them was to high.
"this is on fair to us how can we be paying such huge amount of money, we are only farmers who are surviving to make a living " one of the farmers spouted angrily.
"but this matter is above me, the amount of money you pay was placed by the high house, but you need not to worry as I will make an appeal to them"he answered and before the others who came with the complain could come to a decision,
zephy step into the room with a smile on his face which did not reach his eyes.
*****
soon darkness grace the town of Elitovert ,as Harriet sat outside waiting for the storm ahead which was why she made sure that Aure would not be there when it happens.
Ahhh....!!!! ...some one screamed "no leave me alone some one help" the woman shouted as she was being dragged by the town's guard.
"take every single one of them to the center of the town and burn them alive" council man zephy
shouted.
how dare them harbor such creatures, banshee he said an spat on one of the woman who was being dragged."no no!!! we are not banshee's we are humans this is a big misunderstanding"cried another person.
the whole town was mess , it was only this evening that council man zephy brought the matter to the council that a group of banshee where living here, but since it would not be easy to find out who among them was the out cast, so a meeting was held by the council members and it was decided that it would be wise to burn down the town including the people, so the banshee's won't escape.
The banshee's were nothing but bad luck , for centuries it was said that the banshee's were creatures associated with death. even though they could fore see it they had no way to stop it and their mournful screaming and wailing was not less than death it self.
Harriet stood in front of her house as the people of Elitovert were being dragged out and houses being burnt down it was so vivid just like she had seen.
Yes she saw it all of it, Dead bodies every where the town being reduced to nothing but ash and she knew there was no way to stop it from happening, the only thing she could do was to protect her dear daughter from witness such brutality,And knew she could not save have self from it.
yes it was true banshee's were nothing but bringer of misfortune and death, and though she told Aure that it wasn't them that was responsible she knew that deep down she was feeding her daughter with lies . she felt guilty for the innocent one's that she had kill because it was because of her existence that brought them to their end.
when they took her she did not struggle because she knew the end of the road. they were all tried up ."burn them up " the council man gritted his teeth.
