Lord Dracosi had changed out of his armor and now stood clothed in dark robes and leather in the entry hall of his private chambers, his back was to the door as he gazed upon one of the many sculptures that adorned the hall. The art was alien and strange, its creaters unknown to any save he and a few others. So little of Solonai art and culture had survived the countless thousands of years since their fall. As he felt Maxis's message and knew they would arrive soon he moved to the weapons display on the wall next to the statue and after careful contemplation lifted a beautiful silver sword from its place in the display.<br/><br/>Perfectly timed the others arrived not moments later, he did not address them at first, waiting for them to fall to their knees as was appropriate, he let the silence hang in the air for several minutes before he finally spoke.<br/><br/>"As you have seen, loyalty within the council is no longer something I can be assured of." he began his back still to them, "Which brings into question, Just how much I can trust your loyalty"<br/><br/>As he spoke the last statement he turned quickly the sword slashing through the air between them before stopping with its point mere inches from Lisast's throat, he held it there for a moment before moving it to Alyana's. He saw the look of fear that had been in Lisast's eyes was not present in her and smiled.<br/><br/><div style="text-align: center"><div class="bbImageWrapper lazyload js-lbImage" data-lb-caption-extra-html="" data-lb-sidebar-href="" data-single-image="1" data-src="http://img818.imageshack.us/img818/469/sephywipbyjiuge.jpg" title="sephywipbyjiuge.jpg">

</div></div><br/>"Do not be so confident in your immunites child, this sword is not made of simple silver. This is Solonai godsteel, you will feel its bite regardless of your immunity to silver"<br/><br/>When her expression changed and he could now see the fear in her eyes he was satisifed, and lowered the sword placing the point upon the ground.<br/><br/>"Since I cannot trust your loyalty, nor can I trust your words, and have no deeds of note from either of you to judge by, we shall have a test of your devotion." His ice blue eyes met both of theirs for just a moment before he turned again and headed down the hall, not ordering them to follow for he knew they would follow the unspoken command. He led them down the hall and into a dark lit room. The walls of the room held many ornate weapons of war and many displays of various implements of torture and pain, hanging from the wall opposite the door were several sets of chains.<br/><br/>Turning once more to face the two women he looked both in the eyes before turning to Maxis.<br/><br/>"Strip them and place them in the chains" as he spoke he reached out to the wall and took a small device roughly six to seven inches in length and looked it over once, satisfied that the electro-whip was in working order he turned to Maxis once more and handed it to him. "You know what to do from there"
