“It’s been a long time old friend.”

“Yes, it has I thought to never see you gaze upon these sands again.”

“Never say never.”

“Destos is as breath taking now as I remember it last.”

“Come you must be tired from your long journey plenty of food and drink await you and your guest.” Walking through the gates both women continue their conversation catching up and reliving past memories. As they traveled deeper within the castle confines the queen of Destos commanded they walk alone to discuss private matters.”

“Does she know you are here?”

“She does not, I am not a probable concern.”

“Rumor, has it she plans another attack soon on whom no one knows.”

“She will not cease until she has conquered and destroyed all.”

“That raises concern for all, Lesbiannicus struck a blow to us all now with Cordelia falling our entire world and its future are at risk without question she must be stopped.”

“All that opposed her position she saw enslaved or killed including recently the slaughtering innocent women and children.”

“For gratification?”

“No for sport.”

“Who were they if you don’t mind me asking?”

“Captives of Cordelia who refused to acknowledge her as queen she placed them in an arena unarmed with armed guards who slaughtered them all to the sound of a roaring crowd.”

“Evil in its finest.”

“What I can’t fathom those slaughtered might have been the last of Cordelias citizens and with their queen removed from this world it appears all are extinct.”

“Extinct?”

“Yes, the protectors of the sea maybe no more.”

“That’s not entirely true, “she says convincingly.

“Your meaning?”

“Come allow me to show you something.” Following behind her she looks on as she entered a scared tunnel. Grabbing a lit torch hanging upon the wall she used it to illuminate the path ahead as the light became brighter and brighter she anticipated what was to come. As she drew near without realizing it her mouth drew open from shock from the images before her.

“It can’t be!”

“Oh, my friend but it is.” Reaming still the queen looked on as she walked ahead. Taking a few steps ahead of her she forced herself to pause.

“How!? How can this be!? I stand in disbelief!”
