"I know about the swords of Wildfire, having seen them break before," Saberstryke says.
Batrias, back in Hariel's tent, with Kaylyn looking over him, says, "Why Bright Flame? Why not just 'Flame' or 'Wind'?"

"Bright Flame is the companion of my own armor," she says, "it will be the easiest one I can teach you to use."
Outside, Hariel tilts his head a bit, confused.
"These Soul Swords have a big kick, somehow, I don't think they'll break," he says.

"Teach me?" Batrias asks. "I don't understand."
---
Far in the distance, a tremor shakes the ground. It is the exertion of power by the leader of the Netherworld, Talpa.

Kaylyn stands slowly, "I will, but for now, rest. You have been through much and I am overdue at council. I will return and teach you what I can. Sleep now, you will not be harmed in this camp. Hariel will keep an ear on things."
And so she leave to leave.

Batrias sits dowin in the tent, more confused than ever.
---
A solider opens the flaps of Dannin's tent. He says gruffly, "Wake up! You have a visitor!"

Dannin sits up, her small frame almost hidden under the blankets she had found.
She stands slowy, "I am ready for whoever comes."

A red, somewhat angry face greets her on the other side. A voice from behind the mask says, "I am Talpa, your new master." He extends a hand to her. "We will learn much together."

The child raises an eyebrow, then for no reason, sits back on the blankets. She smirks, like a true Hyrosha.
"I said I would remain Wolfrider," she says, "I did not say I would be one of you. Your hench-goons told my sister and my brother to bring the Clans here if they wanted my return and I enforce that agreement. I will NOT be a Wolfrider. I am a Wildcat, and a Hyrosha. I will not betray my Clan."

"Foolish child," Talpa proclaims, "Do not speak as if you have a choice in the matter. If you will not aid me willingly, you will aid me unwillingly!"
Talpa steps aside. White forms, Netherspirits, float before the tent and fly into Dannin's body.

Dannin starts to scream as the light starts around her. The child fades as a young woman takes her place. The light fades and it is still Dannin Hyrosha, about ten years older in body. Her cat-like eyes are a blood red. She stands slowly, unsure of this new form, and looks at Talpa.
Then slowly bows.

Talpa nods in satisfaction. "There, my obedient servant. I have a mission for you. You are to attack the camp of the Wildcats, kill as many as you can and come back at your soonest chance. If possible, you will kill a man in green armor with blue eyes. You will know him by the slash on his chest and the two swords he carries. It is not of paramount importance that you kill this one, only, if you do, use all your skill to take him down. That is my wish."

Dannin nodds, raising her head. Her blood red eyes glow with an inner fire.
"As you wish My Lord," she says, "but I have nothing to combat them with. With Wildcats are powerful and their armor is great."

"Sneak into their camp," Talpa commands, "And find an older man. He will look disoriented to you. They may be hiding him. He is to be given an armor of some significance. The Bright Flame Armor. Steal it from this man and return. If it is too perilous, do not risk your life. I merely want to you to create a disturbance in their camp. Do not take them all. Merely steal the Bright Flame Armor, kill the green-armored warrior if you can, and return.
"Great is the reward for those who can accomplish the tasks I set for them!" Talpa proclaims, and then walks off, the boots of his armor thudding on the ground.

Dannin nodds, watching him leave. She smirks slightly, then walks out of the camp herself. She grabbs a random katana sword and continues towards where she knows the camp will be.

Batrias relaxes in the Hariel's tent, stretching his muscles. He suddenly feels tired, and worn out, though he can't remember exerting himself too much. "That armor, I wonder how long it's gonna take?"
