Re: Chapter One: Rumor and Death
Tasian ponders the question a moment, before shrugging and relaxing back into his chair. "Well, you will find out soon enough. Our client was not the only dragon kidnapping by these thugs, apparently. All across the Empire, various minor dragon lords were abducted and held for ransom. Luck, and the various intelligence agencies of the Empire, has led to many successful recoveries. The ISPD answer only to the Emperor, but the Watchers have long been in power within the Golden Kingdom. Just as the Iron Kingdom has the Adamantine Order to police their kingdom, we have the Mithril Watchers. Although the ISPD answers directly to the Emperor, while in Qesemet space, they also have to work with the Watchers, least they be accused of violating the Imperial Charter. Anything that risks the security of Qesemet is of interest to them, so I am not too surprised that both would show up to receive a report from me." He spoke, regaining some of his composure.
