Gradient snuck behind a large mound of stone as Silver and Darkstalker played chess. The night was dark and quiet besides the occasional conversation between Silver and Darkstalker, "So, what do you think you're friends are doing?" Silver said, Darkstalker then said, "Fathom is most likely asleep, Clearsight is most likely awake stressing about the future again."

Silver then said, "Well, it's always good to be cautious." Darkstalker shrugged and said, "I suppose so, but it's such a wasteful way to spend her time, just finding the best future and trying to get to it would be a better use of her time in my opinion." Silver then said, "Well, some dragons are unexpected and mess with even your visions from what you told me, like Gradient or Whiteout."

Darkstalker nodded and said, "I suppose so, the have both been quite difficult to read, but I doubt either of them would do anything to get in the way of any good futures." Silver nodded in agreement as he placed his piece forward and said, "Yeah, I suppose you are right, by the way, what are the chances that the invite from Queen Diamond is a trap?"

With a quick checkmate, Darkstalker then said, "I'd say 98% but even so me and Arctic both put a protection spell on everyone's jewelry." Silver then said, "Well, what happens in the 2% chance?" Darkstalker then simply said, "not much, things are just peaceful on the visit."

Gradient stopped paying attention as he realized he wasn't going to get a chance to try to assassinate Darkstalker tonight, a large part of him was relieved as he still hated the thought of killing and blood. Gradient quickly snuck off toward a nearby cave where he took out a pile of bedding from his pouch as he quickly laid down and tried to sleep.
