(So sorry everyone! I went to join my family in England for a few weeks, but I didn't think I needed to worry about posting less until I got there and found out we had no wifi. I only got back a few hours ago. Didn't mean to disappear like that!)

Luthor finally arrived at the wretched encampment, after a few awful days of travel. The majority of his private guard remained somewhat farther behind, as he wanted to speed things along and attempt to get to Evermore before Julien did, but first, more pressing matters were at hand. He knew that it wouldn't take too long for word of his arrival to spread through the camp and the people he wished to speak with would reveal themselves soon enough. Rather unlikely that this alliance of Jehenna and Northpoint, or more specifically, their Kings, wouldn't wish to speak to a Hassildor. If only to find out what he was doing there.

His deadliest bodyguards, disguised as humble servants and attendants, kept a watchful eye on the Breton knights and soldiers who began to gather at the sight of the Twin Moon Crest of Skingrad.

Queen Jannia, meanwhile, made sure that preparations for her husbands return were underway. Inside, a part of her was furious with what Julien had done in Jehenna, but in her heart of hearts, she was relieved. She loathed the very idea of war and the thought that she may end up a widow kept her awake many a night. Besides, when misfortune falls onto one's lap, there is no point in pretending it never happened. Best to minimize the damage as much as possible. Julien may have believed that war was the only way to restore the name of House Tyne, but he only ended up causing more damage. Now it was up to her diplomacy to save them.

And her money. One thing she had surely learned to count on in her decade as Queen of Evermore, was how easy Breton Kings and peasants alike will agree to cooperate at the sight of gold. And thanks to the recently arrived "gift" from her father in honor of her newest daughters birth, she had plenty of gold to spare.
