Draiss stared at the city, crudgling his domains for information about it, before standing up, and calling two entire death sqauds to him. Sixteen of the most dangerous shadow stalkers in existence assembled in the briefing area just behind the situation room, staring at the displays. Finally having both mutliple death squads and shadow stalkers in the room allowed the consorts and companions to notice several obvious differences between the two groups. The first was that the death squads were steel gray with jet black as their secondary colors, as opposed to the brighter shadow stalkers, and the death squads had two blood red 'eyes' and a moveable jaw with three fangs where most creatures usually had one. Several other changes had been made, smaller ones, to make them more frightening and intimidating, marking them as shadow stalkers that had chosen a path of death and destruction rather than the 'normal' path of moderation.<br/><br/>Draiss gave them a quick situation report, informing them that they would be supporting him as he and two avatars entered the town. He was not expecting trouble, preferring to guess than something unintentional had occurred to block his ability to track his consorts, but he was taking them in case it was a deliberate attack. If it was a deliberate act of war, they would be tasked with getting the surviving consorts/companions out of the combat area, and he would be in charge of making sure that whatever had attacked his companions would be incapable of ever making another mistake again.<br/><br/>He stood up as the two avatars appeared beside him, and several survey drones and a network drone portalled into the area, giving them a real time view of the area. "Nadriina, you have command here, I will be in charge on the ground. Notify me if anything... untoward occurs."<br/><br/>Done organizing, he and the two avatars headed out, portalling either a mile from the town, or as close as they could, and began making their way toward it. The death squads took a different route from Draiss, and the avatars were approaching from the opposite side.
