Cardonis did not appreciate it very much when Eira walked right up to the apparition of Dardanos. He did not trust it when it said that he could do no harm in this form, so he remained at her side. It took all his strength to keep himself from pulling her away, as her safety was his utmost priority.<br/><br/>So, it was to his great relief once the dark king had left. However, Axel's bellowing left his ears ringing. Could that king be any louder?<br/><br/><span style="color: #000080">"Next time m'lady, would you be so kind as to not approach the enemy?"</span>Cardonis asked.<span style="color: #000080">"It would make my job much easier."</span><br/><br/>-----------------------------------------------------------<br/><br/>Tore was rather shaken by the events that had just transpired. If Dardanos could just appear out of nowhere like that, there wasn't a safe place left in this world. He could just pop into the shadows in anyone's home and find out what their favorite tea was if he so wished! How were they supposed to plan in secret?<br/>Of course, he would still help the cause, but there was going to be great risk.<br/><span style="color: #FF4000">"W-well, that was certainly... eventful."</span>Tore began.<span style="color: #FF4000">"I of course, will help as well, but I cannot send good men to certain death. I will spare what troops I can, but until I can get them better equipped, it won't be much."</span>
