5 years have passed and the war is beginning to slow down, the early successes on both sides are grinding down as they have both been getting used to the tactics of both sides. Reinlas currently is out fighting in one of the large scale battles though he is not confident of the outcome. Linra is in Reinholm taking care of Jorankra and dealing with other matters along with her children. A guard walks to the garden where Linra is with Jorankra.
"Queen Linra, I bring news from northern Geirlanth" The guard says
"Is something wrong?" Linra asks concerned
"Villages up there have been attacked, there are conflicting reports on who the attackers were from Keireen soldiers to dragons" The guard says
"This is troubling, I will send people to go check on the northern villages. Thank you for informing me" Linra says
The guard nods, bows and leaves. Linra pets Jorankra who is still the same size she was 5 years ago.
"Seems there is trouble brewing Jorankra" Linra says
Jorankra rubs her head against Linras chin and flairs her wings.
"It alright, I know who to send" Linra says
Jorankra wraps her wings around herself.
"Liara, Farenisle I want you two to come to me right now, I have a mission for you" Linra telepathically says
Liara and Farenisle teleport to her quickly and Liara also quickly pets Jorankra who unwraps her wings and flies up onto Liaras shoulder.
"Cute" Liara says with a smile
"Yeah, whats the mission mother?" Farenisle asks
"Some of the northern villages have been attacked, we dont know exactly whats attacked them as some report soldiers and others dragons." Linra says
"Thats not good" Liara says
"Indeed, take some soldiers with you and find out what happened. My current worrying theory in my head is that Keireens gotten some dragons under his control, while I wouldn't put it past him I doubt it" Linra says
Liara levitates Jorankra to Linra.
"We will find out what happened to those villages. Hopefully bring their families some peace" Farenisle says
"Then go and quickly before another falls victim to whoever is truly behind it" Linra says
Farenisle and Liara nod and walk away and to one of the nearby guard rooms taking some guards with them and then they teleport to a northern village with them. As they arrive they see burning buildings and charred corpses even with the snowfall its heat radiates past the coldness of the north.
"Fan out, search around the village!" Farenisle shouts and the guards do so
Liara and Farenisle walk further into the village and look around. There are many footprints in the snow, some seem to have been armoured but then there are bigger footprints not that of Immortalai but a dragon.
"Right now mothers theory seems to be right, Its worrying" Farenisle says
"Indeed" Liara says
Liara looks around at some of the bodies and notices that some are much smaller.
"By the first, some of those killed were children" Liara says with a sad voice
"It seems so, the bastards will pay for this" Farenisle says
As Farenisle and Liara as well as their guards keep looking around the village some Keireen soldiers lay in wait in the houses that weren't too damaged. They are using magic on eachother to hide themselves better and make their magic harder to detect. Farenisle and Liara walk into the centre of the village and the guards walk over to them.
