WISE MEN WONDER WHILE STRONG MEN DIE
Those in the Hollowed Grounds might not know how the LongNight monsters 'worked', but what Loren had to say about it was a helluva lot more - and told Neron a lot more - about the Ascended, the Voice and the rest of that nonsense. Wessex rose another notch in his mind; a formidable woman indeed. "That is good to know. I will assume, then, that they cannot come through that portal, until proven otherwise. Luckily there are more than enough monsters out in the Tundra already, and they'd have quite the ways to travel before reaching the Citadel."
Shrugging amicably beneath his dark cloak and flashing his brother a sharp smile, he turned the corner at the end of the street and paused there, that they might continue to discuss matters. "She always sounds sure of herself. She is Zariah Launceleyn," he pointed out. "And I would like that as well. There is room around my table, and Halo could use your power and expertise."
Even more so, if Loren was able to pull off this task. "I assumed so," he said of it being his twin's fault, smiling crookedly. "That you know what it is saves us a lot of time. I don't know if there is any to be found out on the ice, but if there is, I would prefer it in Launceleyn hands. Someone else has already asked about it - I have sent them to Whitebrim, to an abandoned mine. I would have you go to the Fangs instead. Find what you can, and bring it back."
