** Aedoural Kingdom**

  Aedoural Kingdom borders Verania in the south and also borders Croles to the east. An ally of Verania. In the Kingdom of Aedoural, a crowd could be seen. Along with that, it seems that a parade is going on. The air is filled with joy and exciment. One would want to know the popularity of the person riding on the back of a horse as well as who he is. But as the parade continue, three figures in black cloak starts to make their move.

  [Everyone in position yet?] (Cloak Figure A)

  [Yep.] (Cloak Figure B & C)

  [Great. Go ahead and start planting the 'evidence'.] (Cloak Figure A)

  [Roger.] (Cloak Figure B & C)

  Slowly the person in the parade is moving toward the cloak people. He gets closer. Even more closer. Now the time is ripe.

  With a big grin Cloak Figure A starts to chant magic.

  **Verania Kingdom**

  Duchess Mai burst through the doors.

  [Your highness, I got urgent news for you.] (Duchess Mai)

  **Akuma & Tenshi**

  Night has fallen and the moon is high in the starry sky. The soldiers all sound asleep except for one who's currently on lookout position. As for Akuma and Tenshi, they're currently feasting on a pile of food. Leftover breads and some meat that Akuma had stolen earlier.

  [Ahh...that hit the spot.] (Tenshi)

  [Agreed. But we could use a better dining room.] (Akuma)

  [Dining room? Isn't this a cage?] (Tenshi)

  [It was meant as a figure of speech.] (Akuma)

  Tenshi just gave a shrug and decided to fall asleep on the spot. As for Akuma, he fell into a deep sleep.

  The very next day, the soldiers had hit their destination. A castle to be in fact. It was a very old one and quite original.

  [Milord, We have return.] (Lord Tybalt)

  The milford was wearing a mask. A half mask where it covers the nose all the way to the neck.

  [Put the prisoners into another cage. Oh and by the way, our other plan was successful.] (Milord)

  [That one? What great news, milord.] (Lord Tybalt)

  [Now we just only have to wait.] (Milord)
