| Subject: **Sirenia laughs, reveling in her cruelty.** Yes, Iona. I want you to kill him. It shouldn't be too difficult of a task for you, would it? **Smirking, she turns her gaze to Kinnan** It appears to me, "sir," that all of your measly army is preoccupied...**The evil steel eyes fall on Astri, and she runs her tongue over her fangs almost hungrily.** ...except for dear Astriana, of course. |

's message, "**A short, adult female red squirrel steps out from behind Sirenia. She had obviously once been very pretty, but her face is now lined and creased from the years, her eyes sparkle not but possess only deadened obedience, and her auburn hair, tied in a knot at the nape of her neck, is lightly beginning to streak with gray. Her voice is weary and quiet.** You called, my lady? **Her eyes follow the tip of Sirenia's sword to the black squirrel, and she jumps, surprise in her face, then nervousness in her eyes.** Why...it's Favre. **An attempted sneer.** You want me to fight him, lady?" on 19:26:27 03/21/02 Thu

>>The sharp steel eyes pass from leader to leader as she

>>Hello, "Sir" Ulfe. Found a lady friend yet? No?
>>What a shame... **She smirks again** And I'm glad to

>>Pinesword, what a coincidence! I seem to have with me
