[color=889194][i]By Ichor, could it really be?[/i][/color]

Argus was visibly taken back by the bombshell of a revelation- that from the sound of it, Gilles' father possessed the Jolly Roger of the [i]Silent Swordbill[/i].  But how?  Exactly what had become of his ship during his long sleep of death?

It was a disappointment that Julene's blunder deprived Argus of the opportunity to recover his old flag, but he could always make another one.  He would also need to find out more about Gilles' father and how he got his hands on the flag.

The pirate would have continued discussing this matter, but they were interrupted by a visit by two other vampires.  Gilles identified the first one as Aleksiya, a name he knew well.  She was Aleksiya the Rime-Winged Vermilion Angel, a Vampire Lord known for her potent powers over ice.  The second introduced herself as "Princess" Kordelia, another Vampire Lord Argus knew of.  As one of the first of the lords to fall against the Hundred Paladins, her demise had been an early sign of the mortals fighting back.  Despite her having somewhat of a reputation for being supremely arrogant, Argus was pretty sure that Kordelia's insistence on animals and sweets was just playing a bit as part of her self-proclaimed "Princess" title.

[color=889194]"Aleksiya, Princess Kordelia,"[/color] Argus addressed them.  He didn't want to say more or imply to Gilles that he already knew who they were, and he assumed they would do the same.
