Gazing down from on high, standing atop the raised platform of Umbra's mage shop. He smiled. The Lichdrow smiled for the first time in more than a decade.
Barl De'Abreago...
Mayor of Moonglow..
Ahh..how wonderful the workings of intrigue...
He could not help but chuckle dryly as he sounded out his soon to be title. His hand gripped railing tightly as his thoughts raged like a sea in a storm. In less than a weeks time, he would swear fealty. Fealty that would grant him power over moonglow under the Regency.
Many had doubted him. Seryas publicly titled him a failure. Sanctus titled him a fallen figure of the utmost darkness. They all despised him, they all doubted him, they all put forth their various efforts in an attempt to discredit him. But he succeeded. Always two steps ahead and never behind. Forever dilligent and insistent in his workings, never side tracked nor downplayed in his attempts. He had done much to assure this position would become his and now it would be. The next step was actually doing so..
While Barl felt no hesitation in doing so, the simple truth remained. Most of those outside of the regency would oppose this. There was no doubt in his mind they would raid the city if need be, they would do anything to prevent it. The aqquaintences required for the support to gain the position had already been made. Now Barl needed to be ready for war.
There was much to do..
In a week I leave you dear Umbra..
And to Moonglow I come. _________________ "You see I can not be forsaken, because I'm not the only one. We walk amongst you, beating, r#ping, must we hide from everyone?" - Jon Davis |

|
It had been a long day, she had stood in the back of the room, clinging to the shadows quietly watching, assessing the situation. It was the first time she had come to a Regency meeting but Xandria had said today she would want to be there. Curiosity always won so she had attended. She had been training hard, she would have rather returned to her studies but she was compelled by the curiousity that often drove her. She had pushed herself too hard today perhaps, rarely did she tire, but there was no time for rest, no time for the calm solitude of darkness that she loved.
Her ears picked up the Lady Regent calling out Barl’s name and she had torn herself away from her thoughts to listen intently to the conversation. He was to be appointed, upon swearing fealty, Mayor of Moonglow. She thought she had been busy before, once again she was reminded her time was not her own.
Later that eve, she was to be found sitting at her desk, her head lolling off to one side of a book entitled Biography of Lathiari and Kyrnia. She had been unable to hold her head up, and her eyes open, to finish the last sentence of the chapter which read:
