TRAITORS waves of anger as the words ripped thru the night air poured out of her the temperature around her dropping fast.

How could this be, how could they hand Umbra over to the Lich Darrien? Was it not days ago Stonegate was here offering aid, supporting the Warlord Shalcross. Had they not assured Stonegate that all would be well that Ceinwyn had just suffered a mental disturbance and would be back to herself. That they were just helpiing her, guiding her..

FOUL PLAY...Was Ceinwyn being brainwashed, she was no where in site, were they brainwashed? These young pups of Umbra had no clue what Darrien would wreak upon the citizens of Umbra. Yet, Merci new, Myrddin new they had lead here, they had fought for years and years against this Lich and his cult of Oblivion worshippers.

GO TO HELL WITH YOUR LICH, JASE..It was so unlike her this raw anger, this display of emotion, but her love for the city of Umbra, all they had done in past years, destroyed by these fools. These weak cowards who at the last minute, gave in and doomed themselves. It was then that Merci realized the last tie was severing.. that her homeland was not her own that it was a wild doomed wasteland. The remnants of Umbra were weak..they would see their own kind lost.

What of Audrina, Jase? you think he will not torture our kind...Ask him about Audrina Thormear...and her child. There was silence they were confused she guessed they didnt even know who she was, but Merci knew what the Lich had done to that loyal Umbran she had spoken with Tay. She new the lich would betray and double cross it was what he did...

Fools.. all of them, Myrddin was to see the foul beast himself, and Merci could go with him but she was numb and angry and trying her hardest to keep the transformation from spreading.. to not lunge at the traitors..

Her mind flashed back to the early days of Umbra Ceinwyn, proud, strong before her, she spoke clearly. We draw our strength not from Oblivion but from the Fear, Hate and pain of the realms around us. The dungeon doom within our land inspires it. Oblivion shall not be allowed here.

It had been a law that she had fought for, that she had seen to it in her own leading of Umbra as Co-Matriarch. She had held herself Loyal to Ceinwyn and done what she asked from the early days of Umbra. Darrien the Lich was always someone they had fought against proclaiming himself the heir to Umbra and Ceinwyn had always laughed at this, and told them to keep their eyes out for him.

As she lay in her bed warily that night she said to herself softly. Oh my Matriarch, my friend my sister, Ceinwyn what have they done to you...

Thoughts, thoughts thoughts.. All I could do was think.. I sat there on the steps watching Merci, watching her slowly crack.. What was transpiring was an end of a era.. An era for which us old Umbran guard started to lose its faith in the upcoming path that the new guard was starting to take.. Darrien, of all people Darrien? Dosent really make sense, the words where forming in my head to rebuttle what was going on however I just stopped myself. Why should we care now? We have are own clan, are own veiws are own perspective.. Sure we have deep rooted veins in Umbra but the tie seems to be all but severd and now we are left with the what ifs.. What will become of the previous land we called home? If any past indication on how Darriens tactics effect the people he is involved with, I can only except damnation.. *lestats mind continues to over analyze* I guess the only thing we can do is keep an eye on what may transpire, but I do know one thing if the Lich crosses my path, or the mother of my children, you can make a bet that there will be a little peice of Darrien at each corner of the globe....

Sia Yia lay in bed restless beside there husband just thinking anazaling it all after hearing about Darrien is back and how Umbra is now. They couldnt believe it all that it was true that Jase , Shalcross and Keal just hand over umbra to Darrien. Why would they do that , it just didnt seem like them at all. They felt a little part of them died with the old umbra how it used to be. Everything umbra was about the old one was part of them. They were umbra ettins grew up in umbra and now it seem they lost of who they are. Also in pain from the old umbrans betraying the other ture umbrans at heart. They sigh and thought" well we just are going to now do what we feel is right and stay loyal to people who are loyal to us. Sure the old umbra died and now umbra wont be same and that they will always love it but it seem now that they need to move on and not dewelled on umbra. Nothing can be done for it mostly now , except to not become Darrien servents which will never happen. "Well like we heard before only the strong survie and we are strong we shall surivie thru it all."
