Chapter Two: Discussions and Future Plans
"So how are you two feeling?" Danny asked. Hopefully a good night of sleep has made them feel better about their future.
"Are you seriously asking that?" Prince/King Francis asked gesturing at the camp and the twelve soldiers standing behind them with an aggressive posture.
They looked to be without weapons but in truth that was only in appearance. If they wanted to the weapon would appear on command. The staff weapons were tied to the suits with hyper-magnetics. So the connected weapon could fly to the Jaffa's hand when called. The under-suit they wore beneath the armor connected their bodies and minds. That way they could react to an enemy as fast as their minds could perceive the threat.
Nirrti had been worried over the design and so he installed a kill code into the suit that would fry it and the traitorous Jaffa if needed.
"So have you come to a decision Queen Mary?" Danny asked. The two of them looked like they barely got any sleep. Their hair was messy, and their clothes was rumpled as if they had slept on the ground. He knew that was not true as he had made sure that they were given a bed and pillows with countless letan feathers. It was like sleeping on a cloud.
"I have decided to not take your deal." Queen Mary said causing his smile to drop and him to look at her curiously. "You may truly be able to help me, but the cost would probably be more than the worth of your help."
"Oh well. That is just too bad." Danny said with a frown. The next second he snapped his fingers and Raios hit Prince/King Francis with the same energy blast that had taken out his guards.
"Francis." Mary cried out and tried to reach her husband but despite her intent her feet would not leave the ground.
'I hoped you would agree to join me of your free will, but I have other ways." Danny thought to her using his powers to hold Queen Mary while the Jaffa picked up Prince/King Francis.
"You said you would not hurt us." Queen Mary shrieked even thought she could not see her captor's face. The only thing she could see was her husband being taken away.
"I gave you my word and I meant it you will not be harmed but since you denied my request I have to resort to less pleasant methods." Danny said. The Jaffa would take Prince/King Francis back to the Ha'Tak and place him in a prison cell while he would go to the castle and meet the king of France Henry II. Perhaps he would see that this was the best option available.
Danny and the floating queen behind him returned to where he had captured them and found the Jaffa guarding over the prisoners. They were being held in a stasis field preventing them from waking up. By the time the field came down and they regained consciousness they would be long gone.
"How has it been going?" Danny asked.
"Very well my king. We have not let our guard down from the moment we were given the prisoners." Veda a female Jaffa answered.
"Good work." Danny said and felt the joy being radiated off of the Jaffa even if their faces were stoic.
"King?" Queen Mary asked while the Jaffa warriors went to wake up the guards.
"Oh yes I have yet to introduce myself. I am Daniel Masters King of Dinai." Danny said.
"I have never heard of such a place." Queen Mary said confused.
"Not surprising. I told you that I was from a land far away." Danny said.
"Now please take a seat while we get ready." Danny said lowering her to the ground and returning control to her. He gestured for her to get into the carriage. Queen Mary took a look around her and taking in her situation before stepping in. He could read her mind and see that she was tempted to try and run to go save Prince/King Francis, but she also knew that she was not getting anywhere near the camp now.
"Fine let us go but let me remind you this will end only with you being hanged or quartered." Queen Mary said as the carriage took them off past the forest and closer to the castle.
"You are so pessimistic Queen Mary. I like to think everything will work out. Looking at things negatively just makes people miserable." Danny said. He was sitting on the opposite side of the carriage looking at her. The carriage was being pulled by the Jaffa that were disguised under holographic illusions to appear as the guards that went with Queen Mary and Prince/King Francis.
"Do you want to play cards while we wait?" Danny asked Queen Mary conjuring a deck of cards. The cards were based on people from the show. The kings were her brother James, Henry, Francis, and Sebastian. The Queens were Catherine, Elizabeth, Mary, and Leeza. Mary being the queen of hearts and Elizabeth being the queen of diamonds. He found it funny.
"I do not feel like playing." Queen Mary said.
"Fine but as a reparation for the pain I have caused you." Danny said picking up one of the cards and turning it into a white rose. Queen Mary just took it, but he could see the fear in her eyes. He was an unknown being in her eyes more dangerous than any bear or lion. Searching deeper he could sense that she was also tempted to agree to his deal with each showing. Mary had been wary of magic following her meetings with Nostradamus and that man could only see the future. He could do so much more.
"Fine then so we can just talk." Danny said.
"I would rather not." Queen Mary said.
"I think you would want to hear it since it concerns your husband." Danny said.
"What have you done to him?" Queen Mary asked glaring at him.
"It is not what I have done. He is the person to blame." Danny said to her. He was wondering how she would react when she learned of what happened between Prince/King Francis and Lady Lola. Originally, she was able to move past it but who was to say that the same thing would happen here. Especially with everything else going on.
He was really tempted to find out.
"What do you mean?" Mary asked.
"I have been watching the lot for you for a long time. Learning you and your husband's secrets. The things neither of you would want anyone else to know." Danny said.
"Francis keeps nothing from me. We trust each other." Queen Mary said.
"Everyone has secrets Mary. Things they hide in the deepest parts of their mind. Things that they would prefer never see the light of day" Danny said. Like how when Queen Mary ran away with Prince/King Francis's brother he went and slept with her best friend and now she was pregnant.
"Why would you tell me this secret then. Why not hold it over Francis to get what you want?" Queen Mary asked.
"Truthfully? I wanted to see your reaction when you learn the truth." Danny said. He had been alive for centuries and had to learn how to make his own fun. Jaffa had none of it before he arrived. All they did was fight and die.
"I do not want to know." Queen Mary said shaking her head and her long locks of black hair. "I cannot possibly trust a word you say. You may be telling me the truth, or you may be lying to poison me against Francis and gain what you want."
"Fine. You will learn of it eventually. Anyway, we are not that far now." Danny said. He was looking out the window and could recognize the trees that made up the yard of the royal castle. They would be approaching the gate soon.
"Once King Henry and Queen Catherine learn what you have done, they will not allow you to leave." Queen Mary said.
"Queen Mary you have seen what I can do and those are only parlor tricks. If I want out of that castle no one there is capable of stopping me." Danny said. Turning on his x-ray vision Danny could see the past the trees to the castle gate that was raising. The guards were still following his orders and not signaling that Prince Francis was not in the carriage.
"Good we can get out soon." Danny said to Prince Mary as the carriage was pulled to a stop. He could see the king and queen coming to see their son return along with his bride. He could see Kenna, Lola, and Greer Mary's ladies in waiting in the courtyard as well. It seemed that they looked exactly as the show portrayed them. It was going to be fun messing with them.
"Let us go together my dear." Danny said extending his hand towards her again.
"Do I have a choice?" Queen Mary asked.
"I gave you a choice earlier and you said no. That is how we ended up here. Do not worry. I will not put you in any danger. I promise." Danny said.
Danny and Queen Mary walked out of the carriage together but the moment he touched the ground he pulled out a knife from his pocket and held it to Queen Mary's throat shocking them all. It was the flat part, but it would only take a twist of his wrist to make it sharp and slice her neck like a lemon.
"Hello all. Sorry for the rudeness but I am here to talk to King Henry." Danny said staring at the bald man that was half a foot shorter than him.
"Guards!" Catherine yelled causing the soldiers on the wall and inside the building to come rushing towards him.
"You might want to send them away. After all I still have Prince/King Francis far away from here." Danny said. That caused the guards around him that were not his Jaffa to not lower their weapons but hesitate in coming closer. They would wait for orders from the King or Queen before making a reckless move.
"Why are you here?" King Henry asked.
"I want to talk to you. Did you not here me earlier?" Danny asked with a smile. The rest of the courtyard was in silence. All eyes were on him, yet no one moved an inch. They all were holding a breath clearly wondering what he wanted and what madness made him do all of this. He was just enjoying the chaos all around him. This was his element.
"What do you want?" King Henry asked.
"I do not want to stand on my feet while we do this. Let us go to the throne room. I feel like that would have a better atmosphere for our talk." Danny said.
"Is there anything else you would like?" King Henry asked with a growl.
"Something to drink, a variety of fruits, and anything else can come as we see fit during our talk." Danny said.
"Fine." King Henry said before getting most of the soldiers to leave. He still kept five with him for safety.
"Release Queen Mary first." Queen Catherine said.
She was in the stage where she was over trying to kill Mary given that Nostradamus told her the prophecy of her being the reason Prince Francis died was gone. Danny wondered what she would do if he told her that Nostradamus had lied to her and that without his help Francis was still edging closer to death. There were so many secrets to tell in this castle. Danny wondered just how much amusement he could get from here.
"What do you want?" King Henry asked him. They were sitting in the throne room at a table the servants had brought in. There was a pitcher of fresh and clean water brought in by his Jaffa soldiers. It would keep them sated while they talked without the risk of alcohol encouraging reckless ideas or impairing judgement. The two of them were going to agree to his terms and he wanted them to be fully aware of what that meant. The King and Queen had yet to take a single drink.
"There are many things I want but let us start off with the easiest demands." Danny said as he looked at the teacup in front of him. Before the king and queen's eyes the cup was transmuted into a giant mug that would not be out of place in a tavern except much cleaner.
"How in the world?" Queen Catherine whispered caught off guard.
"Just one of my little tricks. I thought that it would be impressive." Danny said with a smile to the queen of France. She was one of Vlad's favorite characters given their similarities. Powerful manipulators that had been wronged by the people they loved. In Catherine's case she married to a man more in love with his mistress than herself while Vlad was in love with a woman that had married someone, he considered a buffoon.
"How much gold do you want?" King Henry asked trying to get a starting price for negotiations.
Being kidnapped was not a strange occurrence either royalty or the nobility in times of peace. They had massive amounts of money to spend that was just lying around in a vault. So, it would be no surprise that someone would decide to take a member of a wealthy family and see how much they could get for them. Count Vincent had tried something similar Earlier in the year.
"You misunderstand what I am after. I do not want gold. To start off I would like to have rooms provided for me and my men. " Danny said before taking a drink of water.
"You do not want gold? " King Henry asked clearly shocked at his answer.
"I have no interest in the substance at the moment." Danny said. The reason he had come to this planet was mostly for the Alteran technology that had been left behind on the planet. The show was rather vague on what was stored inside the Antarctic base, but the schematics of the weapons systems alone would probably be very useful on his planets.
"Then what do you want?" Queen Catherine shouted. Clearly upset over the fact that all her money was helpless in the face of the stranger holding her son hostage. Future King of France or not letting one of her children die was not something she would allow.
"What I want is your allegiance." Danny said to them. He had already decided that this country was going to be his base of operations while he explored the world for its treasures. He had ten years before he was supposed to return to his kingdom.
"You want to rule France? To take my country?" King Henry asked in an angry tone unable to hear what this vile sorcerer was saying. He would have had him thrown in a dungeon waiting to be burned alive already if he did not have his heir.
"Yes. You can still hold the throne, keep the castle, rule over the land, and make decisions about policy and such but when I visit and give you an order it is to be followed as swiftly and thoroughly as possible. You will be paying me with taxes to keep these gifts I have given you." Danny said as he looked at the king and queen. They should not be so angry. He would let them rule and lend aid to them when needed and all they would need to do was serve him loyally. Not that different from the relationship they had with the Pope and Rome. That reminded him of something else they would have to discuss. They were going to have to change their religion. Nirtii was like most Goa'uld self-centered and petty. She was not going to allow any of her servants of hers to follow in a belief that did not worship her as a goddess. This was going to cause some trouble but no more than they would have faced. The 1500s were a time of religious civil wars in France between the Protestants and the Catholics. Non-believers were burned alive at the stake.
"You must be insane. I would never take that deal. No King ever would. My son would never want me to hand over France because he was a hostage. No matter what happened to him!" King Henry yelled as he stood up causing the guards that were waiting outside the throne room to come with their swords raised for the lot of good it would do them.
"Let's not yell. We are having a calm discussion." Danny said without a care for the guards around them.
"Guards!" King Henry yelled clearly not listening causing him to sigh.
"It is not going to work. You might as well tell them to stop and save the energy." Danny said to them and watched the King and Queen' reaction as their soldiers crashed into an invisible wall. It was not a pleasant fall as they had been running full charge unaware that something was waiting for them. It would not be a surprise if some of them had gained a concussion or broken something. Once they got up, they placed their hands on the wall trying to feel what was in front of them and stopping them from moving forwards.
"The lot of you will not get through no matter what you try. You cannot push past it nor can you pierce through it with a sword. Just wait until the royal family and I are done with our chat." Danny said. The wall was turned translucent so that the King and Queen could see that their guards were safe and that the guards could see the same thing for the king and queen.
"Vile sorcerer release us this instant." Queen Catherine demanded.
"Agree to my request and I will let you go." Danny said.
"We have other children. Losing Francis may hurt but we will not give up France." King Henry said.
Queen Catherine's eyes turned to him. The look on her face may have been calm but he could feel the rage pouring off of her. She was wishing that she could kill the both of there right here and right now.
"I am trying to be reasonable here. I came with just one child held hostage. I could take the others hostage as well. Claude, Henri, Charles, Margarete, Hell I could even hunt down Sebastian if I felt like it. That would leave Leeza with the strongest ties to claim the French Crown and I know the both of you would hate for France to fall under Spanish rule." Danny said. They had spent the second through fourth season trying to prevent Leeza's scheme to have Charles replaced with his brother Henri as king.
His threat sent Queen Catherine into an uproar.
"You come here and you threaten my children!" Queen Catherine yelled at him lifting the pitcher of water and clearly trying to smash him upside the head with it. Trying being the correct word as the moment she started to strike him he used telekinesis to press down on the Queen. Throwing her off balance and sending her to the floor kneeling. She dropped the pitcher to the floor to shatter and spill water everywhere.
"Guess we are not going to have a calm conversation." Danny said grabbing another teacup from the table and transmuting it into a sword. It was not that difficult a thing to do. Changing the form of an object just required an understanding of the object you were changing and the object you were changing it into. At that point all it required was the energy to force the change. It was why he was not interested in any gold or silver these parents offered him. Give him enough mass and he could create a mountain of the stuff. Not to mention that there were tombs full of the stuff hidden all over the world.
"I am trying to be reasonable here but if you force me to, I will find each and every member of your family. I will slaughter the both of you, I will imprison your children, and your soon to be born grandchild. I can find plenty of people able to rule France for me. People loyal to me that will not hesitate to watch over this land for me." Danny said as he swung the sword at Catherine. It was not close enough to cut her but a simple thrust and that would no longer be true.
"Enough!" King Henry shouted.
"Do you agree to my terms King Henry?" Danny asked turning and pointing the sword at the older man. Truthfully, he did not want to go that far, and it was why he was hunting down Setesh. According to the show he had a huge amount of Nish'ta that was just waiting to be stolen. The empire did not sell it cheaply and so his best means was to steal it from someone who already had it. Then he could have the chemical synthesized so he could produce more when needed. The royal family would be more understanding once they lived to serve his every wish. The Jaffa were scanning the planet for signs of Naquadah. Find a high enough signature and he would find Setesh. Naquadah was a powerful mineral capable of storing and releasing large amounts of energy. The Alterans had found scores of it across the galaxies in the universe and used it in many of their projects. There were planets under Goa'uld rule for the sole purpose of mining the mineral.
The Goa'uld had the element flowing in their bloodstream. It was how they controlled all of their technology from the ships to the healing devices. The B.I.R.D.S. (Bionic Incredible Recording Device Servants) were being used as they were inconspicuous. It was how he had been spying on the planet while doing his research. The people of this world even if they saw them would just consider them little beyond weird. It was how he performed his research while off world He was still using them even now. Both inside and outside the castle.
"What do we get out of this deal?" King Henry asked.
"You will eventually get your son back and will see your country enter a new peaceful era." Danny promised them.
"Under your control." King Henry complained.
"Just consider it a small price to pay for you to get everything you have ever wanted." Danny said with a smile that the king glared at.
"You are a monster." King Henry said.
'Really this coming from the people that convinced Mary's mother to add the clause that if something happened to Queen Mary before she had a child with Prince/King Francis Scotland would become a part of French territory.' Danny thought to them.
"Very well." King Henry said with a grimace trying to hide the terror that he felt. That marriage clause should have been a secret known only to a few.
"Now let us continue talking peacefully and calmly." Danny said with a smile.

"Kiol how is the search going?" Danny asked as he sat at his new desk. Two days may be rather quick to form an opinion but the room was rather nice for the time period the planet was in. The room was rather large with windows that gave a great view of the garden and the lake. The bed and pillows were stuffed with goose feathers while the blanket was made from satin. It felt nice to just touch it and watch it shimmer. The Jaffa were given their own quarters but unlike him they were grouping up. This was to let them guard over each other and make sure they were not attacked by the soldiers in the castle.
Right now, he was using a contact orb to communicate with the ship. It was a small gray metallic device the size of a baseball. It was for him and ground troops to be able to communicate with the ships in the fleet. It had the ability to record and project images. The people of Dinai used them like more advanced cellphones. He had them made during his first decade as king.
"It is going rather difficult my King. Forgive my failure. You have given us plenty of time, but the planet has multiple sources of Naqaudah and we have to filter all the images the B.I.R.D.S. send." Kiol said in a resigned tone clearly expecting some measure of punishment. Kiol was recently bought from another Goa'uld and was still getting used to the differences between his rule and the one from his previous master. He expected to be punished with injury after failing a task.
"I understand. Setesh has hidden himself very well. I expect us to find him and capture him before the year is over, but I do not expect it to be easy task." Danny said with a sigh. Setesh had hidden himself for thousands of years since the other Goa'uld had been went off-world to wage war with the Asgardians.
"Thank you for your kindness my king. For the glory of Nirtii I will strive for success." Kiol said.
"For the glory of Nirtii." Danny said as he waved the man off.
There was a knock at the door. It caused him to turn towards the door and look through it to see Raios holding a tray with one hand as he knocked with the other. The servants of the castle could not be trusted currently so he instead had the Jaffa prepare his food and serve it to him. Poison was a well-known tool of Queen Catherine, and he held no doubt that during his stay she would try and poison him. It was not a question of if but rather a matter of when. She would do it to protect the family he had yet to capture but made clear that he could if it came to it.
"Come in." Danny said and unlocking the door with a gesture.
"Here is your food my king." Raios said as he held the food tray waiting for directions on where to put it.
It was lifted out of the Jaffa's hands and floated right in front of him. The top of the tray was removed revealing a bowl of Earth fruits along with a Danish. He was kind of impressed with the Jaffas efforts on the treat. It was not something that they were used to, but it looked rather good.
"This looks good. How are the preparations coming?" Danny asked Raios. Besides making him lunch the Jaffa were also helping the servants prepare the celebration later. It was to celebrate the union of the long alliance between him and the Valois family. There was going to be huge fireworks and lots of ice cream. The ice cream was being stored on the ship as it had a freezer colder than anything on this planet at the time. The people in the castle would probably enjoy it as ice cream was such a rare delicacy that only the wealthy could afford and that was just crushed ice on some cream.
"Things are going well my king. These humans are weak but enough of them can lift." Raios said.
"Very well but make sure that you keep an eye on them. They can be extremely reckless when pushed against the wall." Danny said.
"I understand my king. I am grateful for your kindness and your wisdom" Raios said.
"Then return to what you were doing." Danny commanded the jaffa who nodded and left without another word.
"How long do you plan on watching me?" Danny asked to the room around him.
"Do you feel no regret?" His aunt Oma Desala or mother nature asked as she appeared in a flash of light. Oma looked exactly like on the show. A tall woman with peach skin and light blonde hair. She was wearing a white robe that covered her entire body. This was not the first time he had run into his aunt or the other ascended. After learning that the Goa'uld existed he tried reaching the planes of ascension. Not enough to ascend to a higher level of being but to gain some attention. He wanted to see how they would react with their whole vow of non-interference.
It turns out that they did not like him.
They felt that he was taking advantage of the less advanced species. Bringing chaos and misfortune to improve his life without giving anything positive back. He had a feeling that they thought he was only a bit better than the Ori. It was a worry of his that they would decide to do something about him even though he was just a variant of a Lantean and not an ascended one. They might decide to one day just shove him off into another dimension and trap him there but for right now they were watching his actions. It seriously annoyed him in the beginning. He could feel them watching every move he made. It was also one of the reasons that made him want to come to Earth.
Merlin's weapon would come in handy if the lot of them ever decide to change their policy about intervention or he ever just felt like wiping them out and taking all the power for himself.
"You will have to be clear I do a lot of things that others would hold against me." Danny said as he floated a strawberry to his mouth.
"You kidnap the innocent and extort their family members, enslave sentient people, work with creatures that only know tyranny and cruelty." Aunt Oma said in a judgmental yet soft tone of voice. She wanted him to see reason and accept that what he was doing was wrong.
"I will admit that your words hold some truth but if we are being honest most royal and nobles houses on this continent do something similar." Danny said. Many countries were travelling to Africa and North/South America taking slaves, land, gold. They schemed and plotted against each other in an unending wheel. "These people are very similar to the Goa'uld except they do not have access to space. I can show you what is happening in what they declare New Spain." What he was doing was going to bring order to the planet.
"That is a very cynical take on these people." Aunt Oma said as she opened up a screen showing images of children laughing and playing. "These people..." Aunt Oma began what was probably a large and planned speech about how wonderful the people of Earth were not knowing that he had memories full of Earth and what life was like. He understood the good and bad parts of people. It was how he was created after all but that did not mean they did not have their uses.
"How do you feel about the vampires?" Danny asked Aunt Oma who to his surprised actually frowned a bit. During his decade of observing the Earth from Dinai he had learned like in his universe that humans were not the only sentient species on the planet. Along with the vampires there were also werewolves and witches. They were not the result of a Goa'uld experiment because the Goa'uld were not the type to be modest. If they had the ability to create immortal hosts without the use of a sarcophagus, they would boast to all the others in an attempt to become a system lord.
"They were an accident." Aunt Oma said. It was rare for an ascended to get angry on a topic that was not concerning him but Aunt Oma was more emotional than most of the ascended so if she had a problem with a species than that just made him curious.
"An accident on your part?" Danny asked. Aunt Oma was more involved with the lives of the un-ascended than the others in this part of the galaxy. She had a temple on the planet Kheb where she helped people begin the process to ascend by spiritual means. So, since she had no problems helping others, she might have created this creature in an attempt to save lives. The result was clearly a mess and he wondered just how she could have made such a mistake.
"This was not a creation of mine. The vampire species was born out of a mother's love. It just ended up being a plague on this planet." Oma said.
"The road to hell is paved with good intentions." Danny said and another bit of light dimmed in Aunt Oma's eyes as clearly started thinking about the past. Danny just let the ascended woman think. Anubis was able to bring such chaos to the galaxy because of what she started. It was such a danger that it actually got the ascended to work together and intervene. That is how much trouble the galaxy was in due to her good intentions.
Before he could even start to ask about the witches Oma vanished. Looks like he was going to have to hunt some of them down to get some answers to his questions. How were they created? Who was the first vampire? How were they connected with the witches/werewolves? what were there abilities?
Maybe give one of them as a gift for Nirtii.
Thinking on that there were some people that he would need to find.

"Hello King Henry." Danny said as he looked up from the glowing map in front of him.
King Henry was standing next to Kada as the Jaffa led him into the room. The man was clearly annoyed to be ordered about in his own castle, but he also knew that there was nothing that could be done about it at the moment. The soldiers in the castle would never get close to him if it was not what he wanted. Eve with a castle full of soldiers he had the ability to bring them to their knees with a gesture.
"Is there something that you want?" King Henry asked clearly wondering why he was brought here.
"Yes. Starting tomorrow I have a task for you and Queen Catherine. I need the two of you to find me a witch." Danny said. It should be an easy enough task. There was plenty of witch trials going on in the country. Christians burning/drowning people for being a witch was a long time practiced event in this time.
"What for?" King Henry asked.
"Let us call it a test. I want to see how well you and Queen Catherine can respond to a challenge of mine. Even just the lead on a witch would be fine." Danny said.
"Do you not think you should be more subtle? The Pope will hear of this eventually. Bishop Bossuet has been making complaints about your men sealing off the chambers where we hold mass." King Henry said.
"I am not afraid of Rome or the Pope. If it come down to do it, I will deal with them." Danny said. He would have to burn the city down eventually.
"The Papal Army is not to be underestimated." King Henry warned him.
"Like I told your son I have more than enough weapons and soldiers to deal with any army." Danny said with a smile as he leaned on the table. The hologram warping around his hands as they met the wooden surface.
"What is that?" King Henry asked.
"This is a map." Danny said.
"I have never seen a map like this before." King Henry said putting his hand on the holographic image and watching as it moved through the image. The King moved his hand back in surprise as if the map was a pot that had been held over a burning stove.
"Do not worry about it. I am just planning a little trip." Danny said.
"Will you require assistance?" King Henry asked worried.
Looking into his mind he could see that it was not so much about worry over his life as much as he was the only one who knew where the man's son was being held. If something happened to him then he would never know where he was. They were still waiting to try and find out where his base was so they could find where he was holding him.
"I have enough men to assist me on the trip. You should be happy. I will be out of your way for the next few days." Danny said.
"Where are you going?" King Henry asked.
"Honduras." Danny answered the man's question as he turned back to his map.
"That is in the New World." King Henry said shocked and worried.
"Yes, it is." Danny said as he raised a hand and the image focused on the highest source of Naquadah in the area. If he was right that was where the temple where the ancient healing device was located. It was a powerful piece of technology left behind by the Alteran people long ago when they first returned to this planet. In the hands of the uneducated and less advanced species it just led to madness and aggression. Something the Goa'uld already expressed openly but there was a reason that he was going after it. If he and Nirtii could come to understand how it worked than they could improve life and medicine in his kingdom. Nirtti's temples could help more of her servants throughout the kingdom.
"The journey would take months and you may not survive." King Henry said.
Looking into his feelings Danny saw that he thought this journey was too dangerous tried to talk what he saw as sense into the person holding his son hostage.
"Relax King Henry everything will be fine. You should start picking out clothes for tonight's celebration" Danny said. His Jaffa have promised that there will be plenty of explosions to light up the night sky with images of his adventures in Dinai and monsters that he had slayed. It was part of how he planned to replace Christianity by going back to the old ways of how they told stories.
