Chapter 15: The plan.
Cedric stood on the edge of a tall building over looking Heatherfield's 'central park. The battle he had been watching had been waging for quite a while now. The Guardians and rebel scum leader were battling against Phobos's newest favourites the Sentinels. With the way Phobos had been becoming so impatient recently Cedric was starting to wonder how secure his position has Phobos's lieutenant really was. He had already received a painful and humiliating punishment and was currently hanging by a thin thread.
A new idea had occurred to him. "One which should solve his problems. So for now he held back observing the fighting. The holder of the heart of Candracar was battling well and after a while the Sentinels had apparently been incapacitated before being deposited back to Metamoor. Cedric smiled cruelly has he watched his… colleagues under go their humiliation. What a perfect time to report to Phobos and have these, automaton's look like fools. He grinned at the thought before striding off back to his book, store to return to Metamoor.
Metamoor.
Phobos's guards and martial law police force stalked the streets of Meridian. It was unwise at best to be out after curfew and risk falling into these foul creatures custody. It was the job of these brutish guards to enforce Phobos's law. Crimes such has a petty theft were ignored while speaking the dark princes name in blasphemy or showing images that were offensive to Phobos within the city limits (of course Phobos decided what these said images were) could herald dire consequences.
Two of the mud skinned lurden guards rounded the next corner checking for anyone unfortunate enough to have unknowingly broken one of Phobos's laws. Instead they found a different a site. Lying in a rather large pile were three figures each wearing black hooded 'robes. The monsters arms and legs were bound by what appeared to be plant vines. The creatures themselves were apparently unconscious. The Lurdens stared down grinning cruelly at them.
The three were loaded into a goods wagon being pulled by a pair of bull like animals and transported back to Phobos's palace.
"Phobos sat at his throne and looked about in a bored fashion. He had guards and servants at his beck and call. He could have virtually any treasure of Metamoor he desired. Yet there was one thing, which was beyond his grasp.
Earth.
Regardless of what he tried he never seemed to be able to defeat those blasted Guardians of the veil. They were his one stumbling block the one thing holding him back. But tonight that would all change.
His Sentinels would see to that. These weren't his clumsy brutish warriors these were mercilessly efficient killing machines able to take out entire armies if necessary. These warriors would not fail him.
"My lord," Phobos stared down in an irritated fashion at the guard who had interrupted him from his trail of thoughts. His cold eyes began to bore into the brutish guards sockets.
"Who dares disturb me?" Phobos demanded glaring down at the source of his irritation.
"M- my apologies my lord!" The guard stammered.
"The patrolling guards have discovered a group of intruders within the city limits,"
"What intruders? Bring them before me at once!" Phobos cried.
"At once my lord!" The guard saluted before signalling to a group waiting outside the throne room. Three unconscious warriors were hauled onto the throne room floor before Phobos. He stared at the familiar black robes and his eyes grew wide with fury.
"YOU FOOLS! THESE ARE NOT INTRUDERS!" Phobos raged. "A large blood vein swelling on his forehead.
"S-sire…? The Guard stammered in terrified confusion.
"These are my elite Sentinel warriors you imbeciles! Remove their restraints NOW!" Phobos yelled.
"A-at once my liege!" The Guard stammered. The 'plant like restraints were sawn off using the guards swords and the three warriors each rose. The steel sentinel growling lowly has it noted the guard in front of him who had just cut off his "restraints. The guard gulped heavily and backed away.
"What happened?" Phobos asked.
The guardians defeated us in battle sire. Our strength was draining low," The steel Sentinel answered.
"Were was Cedric he was supposed to be helping you?" Phobos demanded.
At that moment the familiar blond haired man walked into the throne room to answer that very question. He bowed before his prince waiting to be addressed.
"Were where you lord Cedric when the men under your charge were being defeated in battle?" Phobos asked in a calmer voice.
I chose a more secluded vantage point to observe the battle… to see how well the Sentinels would perform in battle." Cedric explained carefully choosing his words.
"You hid like a coward?" Phobos spat back disgustedly.
"Not at all my lord I merely wish to see how well our new warriors performed without aide and judging by their performance tonight…" Cedric stopped there leaving Phobos to draw his own conclusions.
"Hm you have a point… the Sentinels have not been performing well lately," this was an unexpected response from Phobos. Good but unexpected.
"Perhaps if we were to orchestrate the next battle with the Guardians in a place of our choosing?" Cedric suggested.
"Yes a wise plan but one which will require… bait," Phobos answered.
"The blade of infinity?" Cedric answered.
"Precisely." Phobos answered.
"You will return to earth and capture this weapon from the guardians this shall be the bait for my trap. Phobos smiled becoming excited at "his" plan.
"At once my liege!" Cedric answered before saluting Phobos he left to make the necessary preparations. His lord wanted the blade of infinity and Cedric thought he knew just how to get it…
