He arrived in the city and charmed his way into the court, and is now an advisor to the prince. He too is rumored to be a spellcaster of great power. The drow is Thazel Daragon from the city of Calbriz. A century ago, Calbriz entered into a tentative peace with Glen Avon, although distrust remains on both sides. In recent years, Thazel has acted as an ambassador, but her real reason for being here is to study magic with the prince.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>Taren knows all of this, and by reading lips, he can understand snippets of the prince's conversation with his retainers. Aereze, remarkably, is bitching about having to perform the ritual, every month for hundreds of years. Thazel, despite appearing aloof, is trying to comfort him. Qaizel is leaning in close, as close as he can with the eyes of the court on him, and whispering sweet nothings in the prince's ear, complimenting his magical prowess and encouraging him to put on a stunning performance, as he always does.</div></div>
