"You have to find them, Spectre. I trust you as the best agent Hvevot Erdri ever had. Find them, and present them with our offer."



The place where the meeting took place was much different from the places other thief guilds gathered at. From the room of Hvevot Erdri, academy hall of New White Order, city tower of the Hawks and even small shack of Rats... this was more of a ruin. Well, actually, it was a ruin. Remains of a house struck by a boulder thrown by one of the imperial siege machines during the battle for Aiekara. The structure had collapsed roof and broken girders were sticking out of its top, the windows were broken... and it was dark inside.

It was shortly after sunset in Aiekara. And this ruin, as they were told by the Hawks, was the place where Wakenight Shadows gathered at.

He knocked on the half-hanging door. He didn´t expect any responce.

And none he recieved.

"Oh Yegash. I hope they are less thick-headed than what I´ve heard of them..." he sighed.

He knocked again. To little -or better say no- avail, of course.

"Well... as you will?" He grabbed the edge of the door with his left hand. With inhuman strengh, he pulled them open, causing them fall out of hinges.

...and just in time he jumped aside. Several crossbow bolts pierced the air, flying away into the night. He stood pressed to the outside wall.

"I come with a message for the current leader of the Wakenight Shadows,
" he hissed. "Shoot me and you will never recieve the valuable information I carry."

"We do not need any of your information."

"What if I do know something about the location of Wolfclaw´s prison? Do you know he is still alive? Not saying all good and enjoying the vacation he was provided with, but..."

"We do know where he is."

"Oh... so I guess Hvevot Erdri is not the only guild that the Hawks sold the information to."

A silent grown from inside the darkness of the ruin.

"What would you say about a helping hand and force of profesionally trained agents to carry out your plan to free him, tho?"


"Why would anybody do that? Show yourself! Come out or we will kill you!"

"I would like to see you try, from behind a corner... but alright," he walked straight into the sights of the hidden guards, opening up his hands. "Spectre, 1st special agent of Hvevot Erdri. And I am quite sure you will try to kill me anyw-"

With his left hand expanding into a living dark shield infront of himself in a blink of an eye, he let a crossbow bolt aiming straight for his heart hit it.

"Hmm..." he withdrew his hand back, consuming the bolt into it: "Now, when we have the courtesies behind us, will you finally let me finish my talk?"

A disconcerted whisper from the darkness.

"Alright. Hvevot Erdri, the organisation I come from, whishes to unite the thief guilds of Aiekara. Our leader desires to unite the forces of Aiekara under one banner. That means - you give us our loyalty and agree to cooperate with us, we give you our helping hand. So far, New White Order, yes, the pacifists good only for healing, joined. Then also the Hawks who already spied on you for us. Also the sneaky Rats. Flameblades did not, and there is a lot you should know about what is going on with them. They collaborate with the Dark Order and the Empire. Then... hmm, who is left? Oh, yes, the crazy saphynes. Nikka won´t listen to us, he is blinded by the protection and advantages the Empire promises to his people. But the ones who joined us, together with our own 200 agents, leaders of that all will meet soon. And we will discuss our next steps. To help out aiekara people, to fight against the Empire. Now, tell me... do you want to join that whole force that is massing up and shares your goals, or will you rather do on your own? If you want me to leave, well shoot at me once more and I will simply go."

Silence.

"I am waiting?" he moved his weight on one leg, checking his right hand in boredom. "You know, I have better work to do, too! I heard city guards need somebody to clean dishes and stuff..."

"...come in," a voice whispered.

"Awesome. Next time, you stand infront of the door and I shoot..." Spectre remarked sarcastically and walked in.
"There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so."
