"Why if it isn't our friends of the Weaver Guild. I was wondering when you would make an appearance." Elder Verale said with a cheerful smile.
"Oh myβ¦" Elder Stav stood up a little straighter, smoothing out his robes with his stony hands. "We haven't been formally introduced. Might I ask what your name is, beauty?"
Elder Verale giggled, but before she could reply, a beam of light left the eyes of the Golmara Elder by her side.
Chi.
It cut across the air with impossible quickness, slashing apart a portal that had only just formed and presumably killing whoever had been in the middle of using it to appear right in front of the Weaver Guild Elder.
Elder Stav punched out.
BOOM.
He took a single step back and then looked at his knuckle. Chipped stone and bits and pieces fell, but otherwise he seemed completely fine. Still, his eyes narrowed.
The defenses of the Drevak were second to none in the entire Mortal Plane. Even though it was a sneak attack, taking a bit of him should have been impossible.
He shook his head. "All this because I tried to flirt with a beauty. Can't a man have some fun in his old age."
Elder Verale giggled again. "Of course you can, it will just be a matter of whether my companions allow it. They are quite fiercely protective of me, I'm a bit helpless as well."
"It's no matter, no matter. Maybe we could have a date after all these small fry are disposed of?" Elder Stav said with a smile.
Elder Verale covered her mouth. "You are quite bold. But if we have children, how will I know how good of a father you could be? You haven't brought any youths to compare."
Elder Stav's lip twitched. This woman really did well to hide daggers in the beautiful smile of hers.
They hadn't brought any youths over because this was practically a suicide mission.
Almost as though to respond to this, the portal behind the elders opened up and Elder Stav could only hide his reaction of shock.
Out from within it, not just three, but seven youths stepped out.
Elder Stav, Moor, and the Varath Founding Ancestor could only shake their heads inwardly and sigh.
"No youths? Who said this?" Elder Stav grinned.
"Hohohoβ¦" Elder Verale's eyes narrowed just the slightest bit.
Malikhi led the group with a calm expression, but every one of their seven Clans was represented with the strongest of their youths.
The fierce red-skinned, warrior race Rizen.
The blue-skinned and quite elf-like Riverdon.
The long, drooping ears of the Luborn.
The multi-limbed Varath.
The bioluminescent Solenne.
And stone-skinned Drevak.
Every one of them had sent the strongest C-tier they had.
Founding Ancestor Varath looked over toward Malikhi. He was sure that he was the one that had greenlit this. It seemed that the Analei weren't going to simply bow down and let everything happen to them.
But all three elders misunderstood the real reason Malikhi was doing this.
