The strange feeling came upon Rohan Kilman as he reached the Entrance of The Kindred Chateau in Sanctuary, Something was a miss, His dark mind raced for a clue but none was forth coming.
His Lords Son, The Chancellor of Veluci, Severus Darkmoor, via a Pigeon, had summoned him.
Severus had said in his message, I will make haste to Sanctuary, For I fear thee worst, Meet me there my Nobleman of the House of Veluci, Be swift.
Rohan sneered at the parchment; “Severus was a Veluci of words not of action,” he said to himself.
The thirst of power in all houses of The Kindred was always fierce; more so in the Noble house of the Veluci as it was the ruling body & lead by Lord Seth Darkmoor, Regent of Veluci. Rohan craved a position of power next to his Master, regardless whom he had to dispatch to achieve this goal.
A message from any Chancellor so short brought some concern as The House of Veluci was know for its lengthy statements, riddles & tricky with held in all messages, The writing was also in haste, Even tho it was scribed in elegant writing of a noble hand, It was rushed & seemed to be drawn by fear.
Rohan close his eyes, He could not trace Severus by the Blood Link, Suddenly his attention was drawn north of the Chateau, Mounting his Noble Steed Fallenone he struck the reins & bolted north.
He arrived at Castle Angelbane home of the Necromancer of the House of Capion Ryan Angelbane was there, Rohan pulled hard on the reins, his mount bucked under the strain & hooves dug deep into the mud slipping slightly to a grinding stop.
Rohan entered the Castle, surveying the rooms as he passed them, noticing the Dark One of the Capion was renovating his fine home.
The Necromancer seemed to have not noticed his presents & remain with his back to the Nobleman, Rohan total insulted with this he knocked a large shadow marble vase off its stand & it smashed to a thousand pieces, Rohan grinned as the Necromancer spun around, “Good eve Dark One” he Smirked “Do I have your attention now”.
Growling & sneering back at him Ryan Angelbane said,” Dam you Kilman of the Veluci cannot thee wait while I finish here”
“Nay Dark One, I have pressing matter to attend too, hast Thou has seen Severus Chancellor of Veluci this fine eve” he Smirked looking at the broken pieces of dark marble lying at his feet.
“Aye I have” he replied smirking, Rohan looked up & held his gaze “When did he pass Necromancer”, “He approaches now” Ryan replied once more.
Rohan turned around to see Severus open one of the large metal doors to the Castle & hurry in. Strange Rohan thought I couldn’t sense him this eve.
Rohan nodded to Severus as he finally stood before him, The Necromancer greeted him in his usual fashion “Greetings Chancellor, why thous come to visit” smirking.
“Be quiet Capion something is a miss here” Rohan said waving his hand to dismiss the Necromancer from taking. “Why did you summon me from your Fathers tasks Severus” Rohan said Yawning openly.
The Chancellor of Veluci turned quickly & looked at the doors to the Castle, “I was set upon earlier by Knights in White & Red, I believe they follow me as we speak”
Rohan turned from the Chancellor smirking “oh! Did thou know these Knights or lest their names” he asked.
Shaking his head Severus “I fear for my well being Nobleman” he replied glaring at Rohan.
“You be the son of our Lord, Thous is always a target for Peasants, Knights believing they follow the true Virtues or their Rulers playing petty games”, Rohan said smirking.
The Necromancer let out a great laugth,”tis fine the way the Veluci both greet & respect each other” he said.
Both the Veluci turned & looked at him with evil intent, Ryan turned away smirking still as he moved yet more furniture around as he did he only replied “Severus is correct he is being followed” he grinned.
“I sense nothing Capion, how thee know this, or are thee guilty for blocking our link Dark one” Rohan replied.
“Nay not I Nobleman of Veluci” he answered.
At this Severus headed back out the door in a rush, “I must speak with my Father, I go his home” he called out behind him.
“Wait Severus” shouted Rohan “I feel movement out there”
Severus not ten paces from the large metal doors of Castle Angelbane when suddenly the cloaked men appeared before him, he struggled to get away but they had him surrounded, Rohan & Ryan knew this was no act of jester & raced outside to help Severus, They too were confronted by two more men appearing before them, One died at both their hands then Ryan was dropped to the floor, Rohan held the second in check, but he was stabbed by a Poison Kyrss in the lower back by a third, he joined Ryan on the ground.
Both Kindred looked up to see the men push Severus into a gate & disappear, Rohan final healed himself & drove for the Gate opening, He just got into it as he arrived on the other side, he was once again face by two men who pushed him back through, He landed once again on the ground, “Dam them” he shouted as the gate finally disappeared.
Turning to Ryan now on his feet, “I know who they were & where they headed”.
The Necromancer looked at him & nodded, “really” he said looking at Rohan as he picked himself up from the floor.
“Aye Dark One they are from thee foul guild so called Virtuous Knights of the Realm” He said smirking, “I also caught the face of one of those so called Knights”, as he brushed the dirty & mud from his vest coat.
“Now this be good,” replied the now smirking Capion.
“It was Garret, Shadow Duke of their Guild & they have taken him to there Keep at Hope” Rohan said.
Both Kindred grinned at each other, a new game of chess has started, they both looked forward to their Dark Lord Seth Darkmoor to move his piece next.
After some silentness Rohan finally mounted his Steed & began to ride away, He knew his Lord would not be happy at the lost of his Son, But he would be glad the Enemy had shown themselves straight away.
Rohan stopped & turned to Necromancer, “Farewell Ryan” he called out.
“Travel Safe” Ryan smirked back.
“Oh! Ryan before I forget” The Necromancer looked up at Rohan talking “I will of course inform my Lord that you failed to protect Severus & myself under your own roof, I’m Sure he pay you a nice little visit on the subject…Dark One”
Grinning broadly Rohan rode off towards his Lords Keep.
Ryan was left standing there shaking his fist in the sky & shouting “dam you I seen more Noble blood in a Goat, I swear one day soon the Veluci will not rule The Kindred”
Ryan Angelbane stormed off into his Castle as he passed another vase on a stand he knocked it off by mistake, in the distance an Evil Laugh could be heard from Rohan Kilman. “Dam you Nobleman” Ryan said.
