"Well, I have just returned from my own little mission." Pandora explained. "It appears that the Agathist King is terminally ill. And the little agathist Darius has been speaking about is quite close to the King, and apparently, she is also quite taken with him..." She said, flashing a glance at Darius before returning her gaze to Tyrinth. "I also missed your company, that place is unbearable, I wanted to be home."

"If this is true Darius," Tyrith says returning to the young man, though walking this time, "then we have a large problem." He looked to Pandora, then to Elizabeth . "Well you two, any ideas on how to approach the situation?"

Darius stood up and raised his hand. "Yea, hello? I'm right here. Don't I have any say in this?" He looked around the room at his comrads. "I would never abandon my country, especially not for one girl. That would not be the logical thing to do." Darius listened to his own words. He tried to think about the situation logically, but logic didn't explain the feeling in his heart. I need to terminate these feelings. They will only weigh me down. Darius tilted his head back and closed his eyes. When he looked back at them his eyes were changed.

"Well I'm going to leave it up to the lovely young ladies to decide," says Tyrith. "If theres a tie, I'll cast the deciding vote. Unfortunately the law states that if an ally is found for treason or consorting with the enemy without an ulterior motive then they are to be executed on sight. Your mission shouldn't have involved her in any way. Granted because you did you came back alive, but we would all be killed if it was found out that we knowingly let you slide." He then thought for a moment. "You know, I never realized, in nearly nine hundred years, that there are a lot of things we can be executed for. Hmmm."

shauna_marie Reina patted the bed beside her. "Sit down, this might take awhile." She said as she looked up at him. "You know I can tell when you are leaving things out, I want to know what it is that is on your mind. After all, what good is a king if they don't listen to their people's problems?" She smiled up at him.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pandora waltzed into the room where Tyrith and Elizabeth were interrogating Darius. "Isn't it obvious?" She sneered. "He's fallen for the Agathist, pity...." She was repulsed, and it showed on her face. Dan walked over to Reinas bed and sat down by her side. "Well i have the test results back from the tests. It's not what I had expected. King Reina i dont know how to say this but you have cancer. I know this is going to be hard but im going to try my hardest to find a cure." Dan said while getting tears in his eyes. "I cant watch you die. I cant sit here and watch the woman i care about the most die because of my incompitance." Dan said then realized he just said something that was not to be heard. He waited for everything to process and for her answer.--------------------------------- Sadie tossed in her sleep. The visions of Darius and now an additional woman were as strong as ever. She didnt like the woman that came in. She was beautiful and smart. 'He doesnt like me. He couldnt. He didnt act like it. I mean he didnt even talk about when i kissed him on the cheek.' Sadie thought as she found out the man called Tyrith's power.

Pandora thought about it for a minute or so. "Well," She mused."He could always capture her, and turn her... She would be willing to come with him...she would be a useful ally, with her visions and all...but, then she would already know about this conversation, which would be a downfall." She paused. "But, it would make the task more challenging for Darius...The closest companion of the king would be quite a blow for them...but if he fails..." She drew a finger across her neck, showing the consequence. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reina looked up at him. "Finally, you admit it..." She smirked. "I have known for quite some time that I was due to die. I have lived a long life, it was to be expected. Although the one thing that I haven't done in my long life was produce an heir to the throne..." She sighed. "And don't blame yourself. I'm ready to die, and it's almost my time, you can't change that..."

"Well that sounds reasonable," Tyrith says, looking to Darius now. "Think you can handle that young man?" He didn't like putting someone so young in this position (well, not anymore he didn't). Over the last several months, he did something he hadn't done in a long, LONG time. He began to think about the situation they were in. He started to question things he hadn't before and, in doing so, he changed slightly. In his time of reflection, he realized that taking the chance for a future from someone so young over a mistake was almost a laffable idea. He didn't dare vocalize his thoughts though, as even he would be destroyed if he were to stand against a law. He knew that the two women he was with were skilled at telling when something bothers someone, so he avoided eye contact with them and continued to look at Darius.

Darius nodded. "So, you want me to capture her and bring her here? That won't be a problem." Secretly, Darius was relieved. The last thing he wanted was to kill Sadie without repaying his debt to her. That actually went better than I thought it would. He saluted his superiors and reloaded his guns. I hope I won't have to use these, but I cannot fail another mission. "I will bring her to this spot in 0000 hours tonight."
((Thats midnight in military time))

Pandora smirked. "Good luck little one..." She said mockingly. She had seen alot in the four centuries she had been around for. The power of love, or lust, always amused her, one way or another. Either the Sadie girl would be willing to give up her life as an agathist for Darius, or stay true to her kingdom. The result would be interesting either way. "What an interesting scenario we have, don't you think?" she said aloud, thoughtfully.

"I suppose I'll have to keep an eye on you as well," Tyrith says with a smirk to Darius. "Can't have you running off and leave any loose ends." He looked to the girls. "You two should get some time in the city. Were gonna be entrenched here for a good long while from the looks of thngs." He crossed his arms. "Obviously secrecy is to be our top priority. We can't go off and recklessly expose ourselves to the enemy. But that doesn't mean we can't discreetly mingle with them." He smiled and winked. "Just be sure to keep your channels open."

Darius slowly crept down the halls of the palace. He had two hours to find Sadie and bring her with him. He looked in room after room without anyone noticing. Time was slowly passing away. How big is this place? I wonder if Sadie is even here? Darius looked down one last hall, and at the end was a brightly colored door. He silently picked the lock and crept inside, closing the door behind him. It was dark and he couldn't see a thing. He heard breathing and blankets rustling. Darius walked closer. "Sadie..." He whispered. "Sadie, is that you?" He felt around with his hands. Wait, what do I say? I'm such an idiot. I really should think about these things ahead of time.

"Ridiculous...." she said softly and shook her head. "So I saved his butt for nothing. He's just going to go back?!" she said, feeling the slightest bit of stress. "Ah, whatever."
She then realized Darius had disappeared. "Wait. Is no one going with him?" she asked curiously.

Tyrith crossed his arms and smiled. "Yes," he says. "I'll follow him in a minute. Afterall, it takes me a fraction of the time to cover the ground that he will. In the meantime, you two get acquainted with the area. Take in the sights, the sounds, and the repulsive stench of the Agathian people." He laughed a little. "The war will end soon. Probably not before a big battle, or even after that. But soon enough."

Pandora nodded in agreement. "With the agathist king not wanting her people harmed, and her frail condition, it places the odds in our favor." She was already used to the agathist's, she had just staked out the palace for the past few days, trying to find out as much as she could, but it soon bored her. The fact that there wasn't much chance for a real fight displeased her, she wanted a challenge, a difficult one at that.

Dominico Aranis was going through the paces, as he did day in and day out. He walked down the same hallway he always did, reading a book as he always was, and was as bored as nearly all the rest of the capital was. Being a military advisor was much less fun than his father had led him to believe. His days were spent pouring over documents with little to no relevance to what was actually happening in the nation, and his nights consisted of restricted areas and being unable to return to the bars that he used to frequent so often. Oh sure, he skipped out most nights anyway, his transformation making it incredibly easy for him to get in and out without drawing too much attention, but it was the principle of the thing. "Principles..." he thought. "Thats the problem I suppose." He opened his door and started to walk into his room. He stopped suddenly, hearing a door close not far down the hallway. "Hmm..." he says to himself, his refined voice hushed as he spoke. "There wasn't anyone in that hall when I was walking." He stepped back from his doorway and down the hall further.
