Kallysta's fist slammed down on the table as her messengers sent her 'up to date' information with a cry of rage, causing the poor demon scout to flinch just slightly at the energy radiating from demoness' rage.  With news that Valentina was captured, that news was<em>far</em>from up to date and the demoness didn't make it a secret that she was displeased with that fact.  Had the situation have been any different and she didn't need her scouts, Kallysta would've commanded the lesser demon to be killed - something she let him know with the piercing glare of her silver eyes.  "Take a few of the plant soldiers with you and find her," she growled at one of her own trusted guards, her usually sultry voice sounding harsh even to her own ears; Kallysta wasn't going to accept the concept on prisoners under her watch.  The turquoise haired demoness didn't seem to care that the captive wasn't of her brood, only that she<em>would not</em>allow the other side to take prisoners.<br/><br/>Her own guard saluted before exiting the tent, not at all surprised at his mistress' determination - first her daughter was taken, now the brat of one of her consorts were taken in a likely attempt to prove herself - so far, this defense the demoness had going didn't seem to be going well.  Luckily, the fact that they had Valentina was something that would work to Kallysta's advantage - she would be able to find out<em>which</em>cave they were using as a temporary base and strike there.  With a flicker of her slender fingers, she sent the small platoon on their way, both to gather information for the second wave to attack the small group that would try to take back the city, as well as gather information for her to take back Valentina.<br/><br/>This wasn't going to be easy in terms of tactics but Kallysta's silver eyes gleamed at the challenge.  If there was anything that she learned from all her years of being Krathen's consort, it was her cunning wit that he prized as much as her sexuality, and that was<em>definitely</em>something she was planning on showing the other side.  Krathen may not be the 'best of fathers' but he had a rather sharp witted woman by his side to make up for it.
