The shard had indeed counseled him to use the humans he would soon command in the first excursion into the region. Perhaps you would be wise to give more credence to its advice." "It has orchestrated a thousand campaigns much grander than the one you are about to undertake. "Crenshinibon has existed since the dawn of the world," the demon rasped, making one final point.
But Errtu calmed quickly, accepting the minor inconveniences of Kessell's foolish outbursts for the long term gains it stood to make. I am the wielder of the shard, and I shall not tolerate your questioning my every move."Įrrtu's blood-red eyes narrowed dangerously, and Kessell straightened back in his throne, suddenly reconsidering the wisdom of threatening the demon. "Crenshinibon advises, but I decide! Do not forget your place, mighty demon. He pulled the crystal shard out from under his robes and waved it menacingly at Errtu, leaning forward in an attempt to emphasize the threat.
"Yet the humans would have been better suited for this mission, as Crenshinibon has shown you." "The giant is cunning enough to keep troops out of sight!" "Biggrin is a wise leader," Kessell shot back, angered at the demon's impertinence. "The verbeeg and their frost giant leader will be easy to mark in a community of humans and dwarves." "You should not have sent them," hissed Errtu, who had been standing invisibly beside the throne during the conversation. The frost giant lifted the blanketed mirror that Kessell had given it, gave one final bow to its master, and walked out of the room.
"I have faith in you," Kessell assured the huge commander. "The lair'll be set and readied for your coming!" "We'll not fail ye, master," the giant responded. You are the first group to go into the area, and secrecy is the key to our victory! Do not fail me! I shall be watching over your every move." "Remember that you represent the army of Akar Kessell. "Gather together your people and go, Biggrin," the wizard told the enormous frost giant that stood before him in Cryshal-Tirith's throne room.
