Days passed since the masacre of the Escalvone capital.
Weeks passed.
There was no hide nor hair of those responsible for the occurence. All was still in fact. The semblence of a somewhat peaceful life hovered like a blanket, only marred by the passing of time, and the clashing of training metals. The knights were being trained day in and our by Johan. Many resented the man, but in the same fashion, held a respect for him that was only shown in their blades.
Talen got his feather, and Rakara got her beads. Talen was only bound for a favor to Wyrd for the feather, but Wyrd didn't not use it at that moment, but instead told Talen simply, "You owe me."
But the stirring of the great beast of peace wouldn't last, and everyone knew it. They moved day in and day out always ready for whatever might be thrown at them. Wyrd had gone through the city systematically plucking the collars from the necks of women, and freeing them from the touch of non-magic. He had also been charged by Zenra to seek out the other Forgotten clans to see if any they held had been taken prisoner, and remove any collars should there be any, as well to offer a hand of help should they require it.
There were rumors around the city that the queen was being controlled by the Elven nation, for many times had she been seen walking and talking with the lord of the nation of Dan'Shir elves to the north. Rumors said that she was no more than a puppet to the whim of the elves.
Oddly enough, the source of these rumors stemmed from the human travelers that passed through the city every so often to shop and trade.
Drow sightings were fewer and fewer, even though the announcement against the drow had been withdrawn. No more killing on sight, as that was a move to make them no better than their underground dwelling cousins. The decree against the Ith'Dakar however, held fast, and there were fewer and fewer sights and rumors of Ith'Dakar than before.
Wyrd was said to have been spending more and more time hanging around the castle, seen prowling around the boarders and on the walls. There was an unease to the beast, though why, no one knew.
There was more and more interaction of the city of Hogoromo with the other Forgotten nations on Aurora, though those of the darker persuation were spoken to only once, and rarely did they return a reply. Sometimes a small animal skull, or a string of finger bones. The emesarry would often return shaken and spooked, but unharmed.
Through the weeks that passed, Emi had still not awakened.
