The girl was a little taken aback by the news. An army? She had heard that many did not like the Queen, but never like this. Oh, if only she had sent the letter earlier. Maybe if she had even asked Matachi if they needed more men in their own army. "The safety of the city is paramount, Lady Dialh. If the Queen cannot see me for a while, I am more than willing to wait." She bowed her head politely.

Dialh gave a bright smile. "Well until then i have been charged with showing you around the castle." She spoke motioning her to follow as they walked she spoke. "Can i ask you something though?" She asked as they walked she had been wondering about this girl since she walked in the door.

Paradox looked back towards where the army was. "The pit is about a hundred sqaure yards. It's a giant square in the ground." Paradox replied calmly. It had just appeared over night, for no apparent reason. He beleived there was a reason. "Are you speaking of the raids on the temple?" Paradox asked.

(bumped from earlier page) Those that were to raid the temple found an empty pit where it had been. In the far distance, oily black smoke could be seen rising, and the tiny speckles of thousands of men in the distance. Between where the temple used to be, and this distant place, the wilderness had been cleared completely, to make a impromtu road. For, the aztec like temple was being moved, using hundreds of fresh cut logs as rollers and thousands as the force that made it move. As the dead fell from the dangerous work, they were burned atop the temple as an offering to the god they all served. There was only a hundred fighting men, populating the temple, but the peasents that moved the massive structure numbered in the thousands, and that number was steadily dwindling from just moving the temple, and the lack of food to feed so many, but these fanatical people found from all over the world didn't care. They were heading for the capital. (bumped from earlier page.)
Paradox looked down at the floor before replying. "yes. . . The news from that was disturbing. It seems the temple wasn't there." Paradox told Katherine.

Her smile was a bright as ever. "You may ask of me whatever you will." She kept a few steps behind her out of respect. Her sandals were still very silent on the floor and her simple dress barely rustled. Everything she wore was made to be silent to avoid being heard over the Queen.

((sorry but thats for bumping smile )) Katherine looked confused. "What do you mean not there?" She spoke and then motioned him to follow there was probally a report on her desk and she needed the details to picture everything in her mind. Once she was in the libary with him and had read over it she placed her elbows on the table that had maps and reports covering it and let out a giant sigh. "Why didn't they hit the temple in movement. Those men are workers not warriors and there starveing. Whatever there moveing it for isn't good and we want them cut off from that so make it happen." She spoke restlessly as her purple eyes looked back to the map she picked up her quill and placed the road they were traveling on the map. "Here." She spoke speaking of the makeshift road they were traveling. "There are hills on both sides we can rush them in a raid from the high ground there numbers won't count for anything.Put 50 mounted riders on both sides."

"At frist i thought you a minor noble who might have lost her family. Kinda like me. Thats not true though yet you seem like you have grown up in court your entire life. I think you might have better manners than i myself do." She spoke looking to her with a smile. She had shown her the kitchen and the audience rooms as well as the solar which she spent many hours in then headed to the second floor.

B, was on horse back atop a cliff watching over the workers as they moved the temple as was requested by Calvier. She sat tall and silent as she watched them, she noticed the spies and smiled as they kep moving along with them running back to the queen. B was a woman of little words her actions spoke louder than anything she could say. Sighing she decided to go and join them in the move.
((her profile is up in the Roster btw, I'm working on Aldon Nikura and Aenu's as we speak smile ))

Paradox nodded politely. He must have missed that part of the report, since he had been more involved with the people that were in front of their gates. "It seems like a good idea to me." Paradox said calmly as he left to quickly make arangements for the planned ambush.
-Outside the city borders-
Two men walked up to the gate. The preist from before, and the head of this attack force. The prophet of Insomnia known as Caliver Wolf. The prophet stood resolutely despite all of the arrows pointed at him. His mouth opened, and his voice was heard thoughout the city in a wave of energy. "I wish to speak with you leaders. It seems we have come to a misunderstanding." He shouted.

"I am afraid not. But the small village where I grew up, I was raised in hopes of coming here to serve. We are very loyal to Her Majesty and raised as though we all would serve under her. Manners for us are particularly important." If she sounded overly proud, it was not her intention. She did not want to outdo Lady Dialh. "I'm sorry if I sounded rude, my lady. It was not my intention."

(The army is still outside the city, and the temple that was supposed to be attacked is on the move. An ambush has been set up for it, and most everybody is in the main hall. There is a negotiater for the foreign army outside the gates.)

Katherine looked down and read a few more reports before heading down to the solar she after all had a interview with the girl to do as well. She had a brunch laid out for them and sent for Dialh to bring her to the solar.
Dialh noded to the messager. "She is ready to see you now Moria and i wouldn't worry over much. I would be proud of my home as well." She spoke as they headed back down to the solar. Katherine looked up to them with a smile. Dialh left with a slight bow. "please come join me."
