The dark magic had crawled deep into the veins of Engelica’s mages. They grew paler by the day, and spoke less and less to their dwarven friends. Most had complex tattoos on their arms. The signs were central at using the dark magic back against the Darkness However, despite the great advances, the magic was stubborn and the mages did not yet fully master it. Eléane was standing near her map in the command room. About now the dwarven their ‘Order’ would witness the apparatus that was supposed to track down the great lich. Selina entered her tent, looking equally sullen. “So it starts.” She said, walking up towards the map table. Eléane merely nodded as she kept her gaze upon the map’s part of New Engelica. “Where do you think he is?” she asked. “I only have 2 guesses.” Selina started. She took up a wooden carved statuette. It depicts one of the harpies that they fought long ago. With a supple hand, she threw it up. It landed on its base on the islands up in the south. “We haven’t heard from our island brethren for a long time. I think it’s safe to say that they have fallen.” Eléane looked at the spot. It was indeed the safest place. But also the most disconnected one from the rest of the world. “How would we every reach him there?” she asked, not to anyone in particular. Selina knew this. “There is another spot he may be at.” Selina started, as she picked up the statuette of a specter. “Mainland is too dangerous. Even now the Broken Empire is pressing back. Taking back the land. And so is Tushienia.” Eléane stated. Selina looked up from the statuette. “You know where he might be hiding. You know it very well.” And threw the object she was holding at Eléane, after which she left the tent. In the meantime, the first 20 mages had finally arrived at the front lines of the Broken Empire. Ready to help however they could.
