Most of the soot had been washed off by the rains of the spring, but it was still an impressive scene of destruction. A small boat eased up to the wharf, and a lean figure jumped across from the deck. "Glad you could meet me here," Lenpro said. Fandil raised an eyebrow. "You said it was important." Lenpro nodded. "But there's a lot of important trouble around right now." "This is trouble, then?" "Of course! I sent Sedalia to the Isle to talk to the king--" "I'd heard that," Fandil agreed. "What's the word?" "That's the problem. There is no word, no message at all, and there should be." Fandil reviewed the map of Alastari in his mind. "Three or four days each way, and with the roads this muddy, maybe longer," he said. "And it might've taken him a couple of days to get an audience--" Lenpro gave him an impatient look. "You're forgetting the pigeons." Fandil hoped his beard would hide his blush. He had indeed forgotten the pigeons. The Consortium maintained a homing pigeon loft near the mainland end of the ferry to the Isle. Messages, if brief, didn't have to wait on travel time. "Sedalia sent a pigeon just before he boarded the ferry," Lenpro said. "It arrived eight days ago. Since then, nothing. Eight days." "Ah. You're correct, there should have been a message, even if only to say nothing was moving forward." He turned to look around the waterfront. There was nobody near, but sound carried over water, and it was as well to remember that, sanctioned or not, the king of Andoria had a whole guild of spies and assassins at his service. Lenpro snorted. "I believe that the time for keeping a low profile is past, Fandil. Something is wrong... with the king. There will be no sweeping this under the rug." "And there's no need to start rumors flying too quickly," Fandil countered. "We need more information first--" "That," Lenpro growled, "is why Sedalia went to the Isle in the first place!" "There are other avenues to pursue," Fandil said, "and they can be done here--at least, here as in, not on the Isle. But they are not going to be talked about here, on this wharf. That'd be asking for trouble." On the Isle of the Eye: Lord Protector Senator Sedalia looked at the cart with distaste. It was not new, though it seemed sturdy enough. But the main objection was that it had been used to haul fish from Willow Beach, where Darkholm was located, up to Talahya, and it smelled like it. Still, he glanced down at his clothing which was... extremely utilitarian, it wasn't like his attire would suffer from contact with it. And at least the ride would be brief; the road went through Lirin Kiv on its way to Willow Beach. Four miles, maybe five. "I can't believe there's no other way to get out of Talahya," he muttered, climbing in beside Gissanniah. "We're not out yet," she said. "I can't believe THIS way will work, until we're clear of the last ring of watchers." She pulled the tarp up to cover both of them. "I can't believe someone is going to this much trouble just to keep us from reporting that we didn't get in to see the king." "In itself, that is revealing," Sedalia said. His voice was muffled by the tarp. "Presumably our failure to see the king would provoke questions that someone really, really doesn't want to answer." "Quiet," the driver said. "I could be stopped any time. Don't provoke 'em to search the wagon." + ]H[ + ---:--- + ]H[ The Andorian Succession #5 ]H[ + ---:--- + ]H[ + Zorpunt: Lenpro watched the last of the gladiators leave, clearing the common room of the Krill Cavalry guildhouse for his conference with Fandil. They were probably decent people, but he didn't know them, and the situation did not incline him to trust any stranger. "It will be fine," Fandil said. "They won't go blabbing about our presence, and they won't hear anything that matters, anyway." He gestured, and a faint shimmer sprang up, form a hemisphere in the room, enclosing the two of them. "This will ensure that there are no eavesdroppers." After a moment, Lenpro shrugged. "Okay, it's what we've got to work with, anyway. Where do we start, then?" "With the king, I think. No one's heard seen him in... two or three years, at least, I think?" Lenpro nodded. "At least." "Nor heard anything that constitutes persuasive evidence that he is still alive, still functional, and concerned with his job." Lenpro nodded again, imapatiently. "I know all that. You know all that--" "Just making sure we both know that we both know," Fandil said. "Assumptions are the shifting sands under faulty planning. All the information we can gather indicates that the king has spent the past several years on the Isle, never leaving it. Anything official coming out of Andor is signed by Herlas d'Arenju, styling himself 'First Minister to the King'. He is said to be Fratsfan, but he isn't listed in the Fratsfan Register of Noble Houses and Scions." "Does that matter? That he isn't a nobleman?" "I don't suppose so, in itself. But I would like to find some indication of his background, somewhere. At this point," Fandil said, suddenly exasperated, "I can't even prove that he's Frastfan!" "Or that he's ill-intentioned," Lenpro added, scowling. "He could just be really stupid when it comes to running a government." "Or the front man for a committee," Fandil agreed. Lenpro nodded but brushed the issue aside. "Same thing. That isn't one of the core questions. Later, it might be important, but first," he paused to make sure he had Fandil's full attention, "the first question is, Do we believe that the true and proper king of Andoria is doing his proper job?" The two managers locked eyes over the scarred table. "No," they said simultaneously. "Okay, second question, is there anything we can do to bring the king back to the point of doing that job?" He waved one hand casually. "Setting aside the matter of whether or not we can get at the king. IF we can reach the king, do we believe he can be gotten back on the job?" A silence. A long silence. The clock against the guildhouse wall ticked, chimed, struck the hour, ticked on. Finally Fandil sighed. "No," he said again. "Not according to the little I've heard." Lenpro nodded again. "Third question: Does the king have recognized heirs?" "No. No one that any person has seen or heard of in years. The rumors..." the old mage shrugged, "they're said to have vanished from the Isle, probably into some other dimension. Regardless, they're gone." "Right, so we're talking about establishing a new royal line, or trying for some other form of government, but at the least, we're talking a rebellion." "If there's effectively no king--" "There's a bureaucracy, inefficient and corrupt as it is, which is the acknowledged legal channel of government," Lenpro said. "You think they're going to smile and say, 'Oh, what a good idea, we're behind you all the way!'? I don't. They'll fight." "No army to speak of." "Plenty of assassins, though." "I don't think one of the, ah, non-royal types of government would work in Andoria at this time," Fandil said. "I've seen them elsewhere, and people have to be prepared before they can accept such an order and make it work. But king-making... that's tricky." Lenpro smiled, for the first time since the meeting had begun. "We've got a perfect candidate ready to hand," he said. "The Fratsfan Emperor Alonj." The Isle of the Eye: "I will never eat fish again," Senator Sedalia muttered from under the cover of the tarp. "You won't need to," Gissanniah whispered back. "You're going to have as much trouble getting that smell out of your mustache as I will getting it of my hair." Sedalia's hand went automatically to his mustache, and he sighed. It was limp and untidy, in need of a wash, a trim, and fresh waxing. "It's a sacrifice," he agreed, "but a senator does what he must for his constituents." He sighed theatrically, teasing a smile out of his companion. It was part of his duty, after all, to keep her spirits up. "How much longer will we have to lie here waiting, I wonder?" Gissanniah raised her head just enough to peer through a crack in the side of the cart. "I don't see our driver anywhere," she said after a moment. "At least, he isn't on this side of the cart." Both gladiators listened for a moment to the sound of voices. Too far away for them to make out the words, their driver was talking to... someone. Not guards, this was no checkpoint, but someone. Stung by a sudden surmise, Sedalia glanced across at his companion. Gissanniah was looking toward him, eyes widening with the same thought. "He's betraying us," Sedalia said, certainty crystalizing as he said the words. "He promised he wouldn't tell any of the guards--" "He said nothing about not telling other people... who might carry word to the guards. Out, of here, now! Your side is probably the less observed." "Right." Gissanniah twitched up the tarp, peered out, then slid through the smallest possible opening. "Clear right now," she said. The senator followed. Good so far. The sides of the cart were so high that whoever was talking on the other side could not see them, and it was only thirty feet to the edge of the woods. Sedalia didn't know why Lady Sheila had decreed that most of the Isle was to be left wooded, but he was glad of it now. The two of them walked quietly on a straight line from the cart to the trees. No one tried to stop them, called out, no one appeared at all. Once they were under cover, Sedalia stopped and looked back. "That was too easy," he said. Zorpunt: "Alonj?" Fandil's eyebrows rose. "I have always undestood that he is simple- minded at best, possibly unstable." "You're out of touch," Lenpro said. "Lady Fern has been back in Fratsfa for some time now, and she's observed the government there closely. She says that he's 'sane, steady, decent, and of at least normal intelligence'--her theory is that he was manipulated by his regents and advisors to give the impression of incompetence." "And what's to stop them from being no better than the bureaucracy in Andor?" "His wife. According to Lady Fern, the Empress Kitiara is... very firm, very competent, very loyal, rather dangerous in her own right, and she's given Alonj three children already--two sons and a daughter." Andor: Herlas d'Arenju frowned at the Chief Scribe. "I don't know what you're playing at, Hesselbod, but I don't like what I'm seeing and hearing. A semblance of normality--you said this yourself--is essential to maintaining order. An increase in taxes and an edict of conscription to double the size of the standing army is not normality." The bureaucrat shrugged minimally, his face remaining blank. "There are increasing reports of trouble in the Karnhorn area," he said. "That makes an increase in the army and the taxes proper. If we later end up using them for other things, that's later." "Not very much later!" "The Aruaki have always been troublemakers," the scribe said. "Allowing them to settle here in the first place was the mistake. I merely propose that it's time to take corrective measures. This five-step program should do what is needful. First, close the border of the Clanholds--" "Easy to say, hard to do," Herlas countered. "Land and water both? And what of--" "You have described yourself as a magician," Hesselbod said. "Prove it now. Cage the beast-people as the first step in our campaign to exterminate them." DUELMASTER'S COLUMN Notes from the arena champ. Well I stand before all of you rather unexpectedly as your DM. A random MU and a random death of the former throne holder has brought this upon me. I know I killed Lord Byron but it was the most random of random. I wish the departed Lord Byron a great after life. Blood boils, blood burns, blood rages ,blood pours and blood delivers. Remember praise the blood and all it brings. Live on it. Feast on it. Delve deep in it. For blood is life. Unholy Terror SPY REPORT You elder fighters surely remember me. The younger ones may call me Olaf Modeen. I return to ARKERS once again! Biff! Pow! ARKERS watched with glee as SMITHSONIAN got knocked off top spot by THE ANIMALS! Phhbltt! Too much drinking and too little dodging gave Z GLADIATORZ a 1-1-0! I got a good laugh out of it! Up 'n down. Up 'n down. Rankings always change. Up 'n down. I think I'm gonna be... Well, CONSANGUINEOUS' 4th moved them up to 5-0-0 place. What's with CONCUSSION? He actually beat GENERALS' MEADE, and walked away with 31 more points from the fight. Major screwup at ROUGH RIDERS. STARR OF DESTINY lost 8 points to CHAOS BLADE. Some new strategies, perhaps? Maybe STARR OF DESTINY will provide more easy wins... Another fighter (HAMMURABI 21-16-0) challenged another Duelmaster (UNHOLY TERROR 12-7-2). Life goes on. HAMMURABI was reminded on the sands why UNHOLY TERROR is Duelmaster. Advice to fighters with a 1 will--give up fighting! Speaking of cowardly avoiders and unfair challenges... How well I know the feeling of being in the most avoided team! Don't fall out of practive, BLOOD RITES! Management must be dealin', as the boys at SMITHSONIAN ain't reelin'! BLOOD RITES' mad! How well I know the feeling of being the most challenged warrior, IMBER LACK! Don't make idle boasts, they may come back to haunt you. There have been some calls to lengthen the time limit. Do you want the fighters to walk away, or not? Here's some advice: study your opponent, master many skills, fight dirty. Many other cities have retirement homes for aged warriors. Any plans here? The end of another Spyreport! That's cause for celebration in my book! Remember--a good fighter needs both good skills and good luck.

Lord Byron knew life was short, especially the way he lived it! He was working hard for immortality, but.... He was a 15-4-8-15-17-18-7 mode (except for +2 Init) basher and went 30-170-5 with the warhammer. He did well at 13-4-0 (whoops 13-5) in the arena and 9-6-0 in tournaments. Indeed, he fought well above his head. He will be missed, Unholy Terror, you Cad! -- Curator, Smithsonians P.S. Only the $7 tourney savings was a blessing! Feordis Ink -- All right! A win! I may just make it out of here yet. One more PP! I think I can.... -- Hammurabi Imber Lack -- Now that was not in the script! -- Pearl Harbor Alley Cat -- What was that? I was lucky to not spring a leak whilst fighting one of your caliber! -- Santa Maria Health. Humility. Honor. -- Curator Aha! The Z Gladiatorz are zowee! -- Z Man Crimson -- I did leave a little bloody mist behind, didn't I? -- Zip We shall see how high I climbed in The Mailer. We shall see! -- Zenith Curator -- Sorry for the loss of Lord Byron. It was a random MU and just as shocking to me. We shall await your BF. -- Wretch Lord Byron -- It's sad to see a brother basher go down like that. Luck to you in the next land. -- Unholy Terror Rabbit -- Damn. I wish my manager would pay more attention to MUs. Good win on your part. -- Blood Stain Zip -- Seems I was picked on because of a previous loss. Well congrats to you. -- Crimson Mist Indior Landis -- Well my manager finally got me a good challenge. Glad to see you walking out on the sands to greet me. -- Boiling Blood All -- Our fine arena seems to be shrinking. Where has everyone gone? Have they been chased away? This arena used to be such a friendly place. -- Wretch Hammurabi -- Huh, you really laid down the law for me! -- Feordis Ink Boiling Blood -- (gagging) That SMELL! -- Indior Landis P.S. And it's probably unsanitary. Pearl Harbor -- What a sweet little fishie you are, eh? Let's share a coconut on the beach. -- Imber Lack Aeryn Sun -- I suppose your trick is that you don't LOOK like a whale or a giant squid or whatever. Freakish to think that you might change into one, though. -- Morg Pots Sir Martin -- I don't know what Morg's going on about, I don't see how you COULD be whales or whatever. You'd have to be water-dwellers for that, right? -- Kerbin Notts Ghost of Lord Byron -- That was a shock and a sadness to us all. -- Jorja and the Middle Way Pearl Harbor -- And when it's a pearl button, pushing it is a pleasure in itself. -- Imber Lack Mixed congratulations for Unholy Terror...you've earned the throne, but Lord Byron will be missed. Curator, I will not challenge the DM until you've had your chance to avenge, and I'll try to run interference as I'm able. Salute. -- Michael Eldritch P.S. Only 14 match-ups last turn?
