Chapter 3
A subterranean chamber was the hub of activity for many orange dragons. Some dragons had riders, but many did not. One of the Prophets with a rider approached Propheci, the dragon leader of the Prophets crew.
Propheci, speaking through his rider Reepyr, began the conversation, "What do you have to report?"
The other dragon, also speaking through his rider, responded, "One of our scouts near the citadel reports that she believes the human has become aware of our presence in the city."
"Yes. We knew it was only a matter of time until he discovered us," said Propheci with no sign of disappointment or concern in his face, nor in his rider's voice. "He will most likely be trying to reinforce his position. No matter. Instruct the scouts to continue their work."
Changing the subject, Propheci continued, "What is the status of the new control gear? Will we have enough additional units ready in time?"
"Yes, I believe so," the other dragon responded. "All the humans we can spare are working on the gear modifications now."
"Good. We will begin moving as soon as it is ready."
