Orion threw his goblet at his guard, the incompetent fool that brought him the worst news. "How is it that you lost a twelve year old boy!?!" He boomed making his guards shake in their armor. Tobias snuck into the room with a grin on his face. "Find the boy, now!" He ushered them out as Tobias, Orion's right hand man came and bowed in front of him. "Tobias, please tell me there is good news."
"Unfortunately, our troops have been pushed back to the north line." Orion sighed as he sat on his thrown. "However, Soren has slipped up." Orion sat up, Soren had been the worst part of this war. He had survived Orion's best efforts to destroy him, Soren had the scars to prove it. Soren was a good spy, and an even better fighter. If Orion wanted to kill King William, he'd have to get rid of his bastard child.
"How?" Orion asked, a wicked smile curling on his lips.
"He seems to have taken a liking to a beautiful young woman." Tobias took a grape and popped it into his mouth.
"Find the woman, take her. We'll bring Soren to us and then we'll kill him."
