Daku was still seething when she got back to the castle.
She sent two trackers to follow the piksa tracks and find Pergoth.
Until they found him she would save her strength.
She would need all of it to keep her head, especially after what he did to her.
She walked to the castle barracks and rested for awhile, at least until the Queen called her.
She walked up to the throne room sore and angry, she took a moment to compose herself before going in. When she entered the Queen was still in her party dress that was as white as snow and glowed like starlight. Daku came in,and bowed.
"Daku,I heard about the watch tower." The Queen said formally
"Just a skirmish, we lost only a few men, though I wish we lost none." Daku replied equally as formal.
"That's not the part I'm concerned about." The Queen said in a soft tone, "I am concerned about Pergoth."
Daku was startled she didn't know how to reply.
The Queen just stared at her and said, "you didn't think I'd find out? Honey I'm the queen. I know things dear and I have a certain advantages"
"I didn't think you wouldn't find out, I was just...." Daku stumbled
"Surprised I would ask about him? Dear I know your history with him. That's why I am concerned. I want to make sure that this unexpected and un welcomed monster would not get in the way of your recovery." The Queen replied in genuine concern.
"It won't your majesty." Daku said quickly
"Good. You are released. Rest well Daku and I hope you have a speedy recovery."
Daku bowed and left the throne room, and headed to the barracks.
She rested at the barracks for an hour,before the trackers came back and gave her a report.
"General" the soldier saluted
"At ease major." Daku sat up in her bed, "report?" Daku asked.
"We followed the tracks the to piksa camp, we found the pikas that fled but not the one you described." The tracker reported.
"You didn't find him?" Daku growled
"That's correct general." The soldier flinched
"You are dismissed" Daku said in a seething coolness
"General." He saluted and scurried off as fast as he could.
"I will get him eventually... And when I do,I will make him regret everything he ever did." Daku's thoughts growled. Then she fell into sleeps comforting embrace. But her sleeps were troubled with pain and tormented memories.
