"They won't give you a change to speak," she replied. 'I know what these raiders are like unlike you." She sighed, but she left her sword as it was.
Hundreds of centaurs came quickly into view, and it was not long before bows could be heard being used. Every knight sheilded themselves as did the Minotaur. Velatha snarled and sent a burning ball of golden flames at the few arrows aimed at her, incinerating them.

He kept his blade seathed and he saw the centaurs stop as they saw him, they were confused, one came over to him, his horse bod y was jet black and his torso was tan, "General? What do you do here with these humans?" Glenawing looked at him, "they are my troops, I am their King, and why does it seem you attack them?" the Centaur snorted, "You aid the enemy?" Glenawing shook his head, "I am the enemy, join me and we shall see the dawn of a new empire together."

"we cannot work with you. Not while u still have those brutes wih you." he looked straigh at the Minotaur."
Keya narrowed her eyes at him. "They have sworn themselvess to our cause centaur."

He looked at the Centaur, "Why not for a higher cause? An enemy of an Enemy makes one an ally." he looked at Keya then and whispered, "Calm your self, they are a proud race, their arrogance is beyond them, but they do make good warrior."

"we will never side with those things. Vile things." the centaur glared at him. He took several steps back towards his own people.

he frowned, "I was afraid you would say that," he pointed behind the centaurs, "See in those trees, I have archers positioned ready to fire at your troops, if you wish to leave peacefully do so, if you wish to die you may also choose that."

"oh the amrournwe wear negates arrows," the centaur laughed. "you will all die."

Keya glared at him.

He smiled, he drew his blade effortlessly, "It shall be you to die." he bounded two swift steps towards the Centaur and closed the distance at the flash of an eye, he slashed at the chest of the Centaur and killed him. Glenawing grinned at the other centaurs as he steped over the crumpled corspe of their leader, "If you wish to meet the same fate as him" he motion his blade towards the corpse, "then remain here to fight or you may leave." He looked at Keya, "That was just one of my people imagine what all of my fellow bretherin could do if we faught together."

"We'll see," she replied. Some of the Centaur fled, others did not. Otmin looked after them.

he wiped the blood off of his blade and sheathed it, he looked to Keya, "When you saw me duel your father it was nothing compared to what I can truely do Keya." he rolled his shoulders, "come with me."

She sighed, knowing one of the Minotaur wouldn't let her out of his sight. But she followed Glenawing.

He walked into his tent and folded back the flap and muttered a spell so no one could hear them. He looked to Keya and said calmly, "What I am about to tell you is known only by a handful of my closest friends and advisors." he paused and looked at a map of Nuban, "We will begin attacking Gem," he pointed at the city at the edge of the forest, "this is the city we must take first, I have troops being transfered to the general area and if all goes to plan we should lay siege to it by the begining of the next month."

"Mithrim will not go down easily," she replied glancing at the city. "That forest will not allow humans in, nor the Minotaur."

He grinned, "Ah but it will let me and my riders in, I know that city like that back of my hand, once we get it we will take the city from the inside and then the humans and the brutes shall be able to enter."

"Never call a Minotaur a brute, its very rude." She sighed. "Surely you know that. So many customs you neglect."

"they are brutes. they might as well be a bunch of cattle." he said calmly. "Whaet do you think of this plan?"

"much as I hate to admit it, gem knows what your doing."

He smiled, "Her good old foresight, and only a minataur can blind her, that's why Mithirim is key, also I need you to do something important, I need you to take over as the black hand, I need someone who can stealthily take down my enemies." he looked at her hoping she would accept.

"Stealth is something I can do given enough time to consider all the possible changes that could happen in the future," she replied.

"what type of changes do you mean?" he said calmly.

"gen someone decides to do something future changes. I need time to delve into what possible obsticles I face and ways around them."

"that would be wonderful." he hated foresight, he could deal with luck but never foresight, it annoyed the hell out of him.

"once I lock onto where my target is nothing stops me though."

"that's even better, i want you to assasinate one of the elven generals for me, he is a major Casue of the war effort, essentially next to Tirach." he paused, "Kill Varug."

"what does he look like?" she asked.
