M A X E N C E UNEASY LIES THE HEAD THAT WEARS THE CROWN
How he had managed to slip into the court of night unapprehended was beyond him, in fact, he wondered if there was but a single warrior to protect the citizens; the cover of night was all he had needed to slip past the sleepy buildings and perhaps even Calligos watchful eyes. The lion inspected the walls and the cobblestone, admiring the vegetation that made their home upon the window panes and thrived over the stone. No such thing could be seen in Solterra where the sand choked every living thing. The slightest ounce of jealousy rumbled within as Maxence slipped along the walls, pacing quietly until he reached the vast door of their cathedral-like structure. First he observed the sleepy building and all the lights within, primarily wondering which window might belong to the chamber of the king. moments later he began his summons, not caring that it was long past midnight and that the stars were all they had left for company. "Reichenbach!" Day bellowed to Night, though he had little to no expectation that Yin would recognise Yang. "I await" was his second boom, this time slipping form his lips only as he turned upon his haunches and pressed on back the way he cam,e hoping that the echoes of his footsteps upon the cobblestones would be enough to allert the soverign in where the commander was headed. Maxence would not allow himself to be surrounded by a whole court of enemies. He was one among twenty, perhaps thirty potential enemies, so it was with nought but wit that he trailed back out of the court walls to the nearby meadow where he stood in wait, facing the vast nightscape to the north where home lay. |
