Darrius didn't say anything for a couple of seconds, he knew if he said no there was a chance Solstice would kill him. "Yes, let's team up." Darrius said. Solstice smiled, "I'm glad you agreed to this alliance, by the way this is my student, Hiro." Darrius looked at the boy, he couldn't be over eighteen. Darrius could sense that the boy was stronger than him. "By the way, what was your plan for attacking Kvatch?" Solstice asked. "Well, we took the residents of the village we raided hostage, we'll use the ones we didn't kill as bait when we attack, we also have captured some mobs from the blood moon and gave them some armor so they don't burn in the day." Darrius explained confidently. "Wow, sounds like a full proof plan." Solstice said sarcastically. "Anyways, I'll be back in a week so be ready by then," Solstice and Hiro walked off. Darrius just stood there. "Hiro, it's time for us to split up, you know what to do." Hiro nodded. Solstice and Hiro walked off in separate directions.
