Chapter 15
Daine was lost in thoughts. And then, thinking about her adventures in Dunlath, she had an idea. The last load of black opals had not left for Cartak, the King had got them. And black opals store magic. She ran to the King.
"Jon, I have an idea. We need to send troops out to help everywhere in the country. Defending Immortals cost our mages much of their gift. What about getting the black opals of Dunlath for help? We could give them as stored power to the mages in our troops. So they would have better chances to help."
Jon was relieved. It was a good idea, actually he had worried about the mages. Fighting against Immortals was something which drained lower mages fast. With the help of an opal, they would have a better chance for it. Well and the Invisible- and Protection-Spells would work better. He called for some smiths to put every single opal into a chain, as fast as possible.
In the evening at their next meeting he told the rest about it. "Well, Daine had a good idea how to support our mages. The Black Opals from Dunlath. Right now, our smiths are putting every single opal into a chain. Later every mage will get one, for power support. It will help them with their work, especially with fighting and healing. It would help them not to drain their gift to fast."
Everyone nodded, it was a good idea for help. Daine was back, in her normal spirits, finding ways, spying and doing her work. Numair seemed no problem for her, now.
A week later the troops were ready to leave, spreading around the whole of Tortall to fight against the small invader troops of immortals. A bigger troop was heading to the coast, to stop the mortals from the copper Isles.
Numair and Daine were still staying at the palace. They were supposed to protect the king. Thayet and Alanna and Raoul were heading to Port Caynn. To fight against the mortals. Buri was with one of the rider squads spreading around Tortall. The strangers were left at Corus with the King and some troops to defend the capital and the palace.
On their way to Port Caynn they were attacked by Stormwings and some giants. The queen, still a bid shaken by her hurts from the first battle was cut in two pieces by the wing of a stormwing. Alanna travelled back to Corus, with one squad and the corpse of Thayet. She was angry to the loss her dear friend glowing with her purple gift, even the immortals doesn't want to cope with her or even attack her that moment.
As she arrived at the palace, Jon fainted seeing the dead body of his love. Alanna cursed and brought him back with her healing gift. They buried Thayet in the catacombs and Jon weak in his grief made Alanna stay and take the command over for the next days. After two days, she shook him, yelling at him, slapping him in the face. After that he got back into his duties. But still didn't let Alanna leave.
Jon was still grieving, he had lost his Love. He was glad that Alanna woke him out of his paralyzed condition. He was glad, that she, his first love and best friend was near him now. He needed her badly. She was now the only one left who would yell at him and be unfriendly with him, cursing him and kicking him until he would do his duties.
Some days later some flesh coloured monsters arrived near Corus, they skinned plants and animals sparkling in the colour of the skin of the victim of the moment and continuing their way. Numair was called, it was time to use his powers. The monsters were destroying the crop on the fields. If they would not be stopped fast, they would ruin the harvest. The next winter would be dangerous enough without famine.
Numair, Daine and Susan were sent to do something against them. They failed, but in the last moment, before they would be killed, all three of them were pulled in the air and through a portal.
Some hours later awakening in the cottage of weiryn and his wife Daines mother Sara, now the green lady they were all feeling bad. They had the urge to return to Corus as fast as possible. While they were discussing the facts and ways to get back, Rikash arrived. He apologized for letting Ozorne fled. He was not able to hold him. He was learning too fast and Chaos had chosen him for her work.
Some minutes later the Immortal, Weiryn and Sara were gasping, seeing a white stallion coming down the path Susan was sheering up. "Binky" She yelled. She ran towards the horses hugging him. With him she went back to the others.
"How can this stallion be here? He is not the god of the horses. Who is he?" asked Weiryn. "He is the horse of my grandfather. The death of the discworld. He is a relative of the Dark God, calling me his cousin. Normally Binky can go wherever he wants to go. He can carry all three of us back to Corus."
Weiryn gave Daine a bow and arrows. His present for Numair was a magic artefact, a stick with a crystal knob.
They said bye to Daines parents and left for Corus.
In Corus something the monsters were still walking, as some Dragons approached and killed them. Then, the dragons landed at the palace grounds greeting Kitten, Tkaa and Daine. They told them, they were sent to help kitten and her stepmother, Daine. They would be on their side in this war. Just the three of them, which were looking for Daine and Kitten, but they would do want they can to help.
Numair called Jon and the dragons repeated their will to help to the king. Jon was glad for every help.
Numair, Daine and Susan were only back for some minutes and being exhausted fainted at that moment.
They slept all for two days. *****************************
