Disclaimer: As much as I'd like to I don't own anything of Garth nixes.

In Anclisteire where the old kingdom magic seeped through Anclisterene technology a veil of darkness covered the area. In Bain the darkness was at its thickest. The only light from candles lit from the in homes when the electricity failed. This was not uncommon given its closeness to the wall.

A man named Harvey Goodmen was walking home from the train station. He had travelled from the parliament in corvere. He was a group in opposition of the latest plan about the old kingdom. He was sick of the countless arguments, appeals and speeches. While Harvey agreed that there had been far too many incursions from the old kingdom of late. First countless dead crossed the wall and attacked a school while killing many in their path then there was that incident at forwin mill which destroyed acres of land, but this latest plan was far too risky.

All Harvey was thinking about was this and getting home to his wife and kid. This explains how he didn't notice the man following him. Harvey turned down the intersection into an alley. The stranger followed. A few seconds passed. A harsh silver light lit up the alley for approximately 10 seconds. A smell of burning meat wafted out of the alleyway, and Harvey walked out of the alley whistling cheerfully. A second Harvey Goodmen was dead in the alley not at all recognisable under severe burns.

OoO

Miles from Bain there was a government car heading to the perimeter. The car was owned y the chief minister Edward sayre. It carried four unusual passengers. One of them was talking cheerfully to a lightly and brown haired young man. The man talking was Nicholas sayre. Seemingly recovered after the incident at forwin mill. The other was prince sameth of the old kingdom. He was fiddling with a coin while listening to nick. There was a woman sitting beside Sam. While not awe inspiringly beautiful she had raven black hair and cream ski which was quite attractive. Lying on the passenger seat staring at the driver in a very non catlike manner was white cat. The driver kept glancing nervously at it.

"You have no idea the looks the nurses gave me when I said i was there at forwin mill" Nick was saying "they wouldn't stop asking me questions. Although i hoped that had more to do with my charming personality"

"I doubt it" chuckled Sam.

"I've never been so insulted! I hope a youre sister gives me a better welcome!" nick winked his eyebrows suggestively.

Lireal glanced at nick who immediately blushed. Sam saw it and grinned.

"If only you could come straight back to the old kingdom with us nick" Sam said" I could sow you around the palace. We could teach you charter magic!"

"Hmmmmmm as much as I would love to explore this magic I have some stuff to sort before i go. How will i be going to the palace anyway?"

"There will be a paperwing at Barhedrin hill for you. Just send a letter before you go and well get you're room ready."

"Were here" the driver said suddenly.

They all looked outside. They were at the edge of the perimeter. Concertina wire stitched the land in front of them. Among them were wind flutes that sabrial had put up before leaving for the old kingdom. The old ones were destroyed when hedge had crossed the wall and raised an army of dead using southerling refugees. It had been time consuming for Sabrial and since Lireal had to watch her late at night making them she was glad it was over. The wall lay ahead a glittering wall stretching from coast to coast. Charter marks constantly moving around them. Lireal and sam waved goodbye to nick.

OoO

In Bain the law enforcement were cordoning off an alley. In the middle of the alley was a burned body in the centre of some kind of pentagram. The pentagram had runes around the outer circles. Two men in black trench coats were watching scouts from the wall examining it. They shared a glance and walked off. They had much to report to their employer.

A/N: Well i think this is better than my last story. I could of course be wrong. Please Read and review.
