Elthrael wasn't the type to generally enjoy gloating, but in this case he had to make an exception. As the female winter fairy had openly stated her interest in him, and complimenting his recently grown apples. The moth fairy had a smug expression on his face, glancing towards Kenia and then towards Bowyn, which had begun to address him.

[color=aba000][b]"Oh no need to fret, my frosty friend. The elf girl's little fantasy is just a fantasy and has nothing real to it. Same can be said of the fairy princess, Risa Millinia. She no doubt believes that after removing the lich from power the world will suddenly have peace. But that is just naivé thinking. What is worse though? Order under the current king or disorder with several kingdoms fighting oneanother til a new Aklenroth would appear?"[/b][/color] He couldn't stop a soft chuckle at the end of his sentence as he looked over the group, turning to address Kenia.

[color=aba000][b]"Not at all. I suppose you are just upset after failing to get under someone's blanket the past night. If you have such an urge to get under something, why don't you go ahead and dig underground? By all means dig us a tunnel to the north! I am certain the orc mines would be more than welcome to take you in if that's more to your liking. You do seem like the kind who enjoys digging for gold, or your own grave."[/b][/color] The moth fairy smirked, as his golden eyes watched Kenia closely.

[color=aba000][i]'They do not see what I am doing do they? No matter. I will find out who wants to keep this group to stick together and who does not want that. The latter may likely serve the lich king, for what better way is there to turn ones enemies upon each other. Just like Aklenroth no doubt did long ago before he took the throne. In this coming fight, the one who is going to pull these strings will be me. But I'll do it one better. Without a massive civil war. I will seize the throne by force if I have to, order must triumph over chaos. At the crucial moment, I must be the one to take the lich's place. All sides must be pleased with the terms, lest war shall come anew and all of this will be for nothing. Battles are won by men and women with physical prowess, wars are won by men and women with mental prowess. I possess both, yet the latter is by far the more important. Victory and loss in battles mean nothing if the war is lost. I must win. If it will not be my destiny, I might aswell be dead. The answer I seek is not too far away.'[/i][/color]
