At Devon's followers' hiding place…
"Will it truly work, that poison? Will it awaken our Lord Devon's blood thread inside Amon?" Soka inquired, kissing Marla's neck from behind. Marla smirked at how successful things were going.
She had manipulated the King of Nur, Moler, who harbored a deep grudge against Devon. Marla instructed one of her sorceresses to meet with Moler's convoy on their way to the summit, fueling the man's grudge and redirecting it towards Amon. She emphasized that Amon still shared Devon's blood and it would only be a matter of time before Amon would become like Devon because he came from the same lineage.
The protective enchantments the Sorel Guild placed around Haven Forest were too strong for any of Devon's followers to penetrate. So, Marla used Moler, ensuring those poisoned arrows would be able to get inside the forest and be used against Amon.
