[Alaundril Do'Rhett]

---

Alaundril was quite pleased that his Company's first payment was made so punctually. A payment of twenty thousand gold pieces was given to the Trading Company initially and twenty thousand more when their work was completed this evening. The client urged subtlety over brute force, which happened to be his outfit's way anyhow. They all stood there in the storage room, grim looks in their eyes. The Apprentice, Scout, Watcher and Inquisitor all knew what may come in the near future. And after the Boss debriefed them all on the movements of the Lotus Ninjas....
Needless to say, they all were in agreement that their time here in Umbra was limited, and the time was fast coming to disappear and fade away. The stakes were simply too high to be discovered now. "The arrangements for the new property have been made and secured, we will be moving our operations there, until things here die down. There are far too many curious enemies snooping around. All of us know that we cannot win a straight fight against highly trained enemies such as these." All of his followers nodded in agreement. Most not saying anything. He found trust in this small group that crowded in the room. "We have a contract to complete soon enough, everyone get prepared. We leave for Luna in the hour, we have a caravan to ambush..."\
Alaundril went to the vault to gather what he would need for the upcoming battle. He made sure his quiver was stocked full of arrows and grabbed up his bow. The others were already on their way, so Alaundril quickly made his way unseen, up into Umbra and finally the Moongate. It didn't take much time before they were all in the perfect position. A pair of them on either side of the road, they hid themselves carefully in the brush alongside the road, waiting for their query...

[Kinn]

Kinn took up his position near a tree by the side of the road.

Even in the shadows Kinn could see the fresh coat of poison on his blade. His victims would see it soon enough as well.

When the caravan came into view Kinn was surprised at how many guards were present. The Boss had said there would be a few escorts, but he didn't say there would be this many. It didn't matter, Kinn was being paid to do his part in this job---so he would kill every guard present--if his fellow Syndicate didn't kill them first.

The standing order was to let the Boss attack first and focus on his targets. It wasn't long before an arrow struck the leader of the caravan.

That was all the signal Kinn needed.....
