  Tulius motioned me to a side alley.  Following him I asked, "What do you mean by 'the possible slaughtering of my personal' army?"

  Tulius countered with a question of his own, "Your army fights like you correct?"

  "Yes sir, General!", I replied.

  "I see.", he began, "too bad."

  I asked another question, " Why do you call them an army?   They are a platoon in the mighty Imperial army."

  "Untrue, they and you are now no longer part of the Empire." Tulius said, " I herby formally discharge you and the soldiers at Fort Amol from the service of the Empire.  I also formally request that you and the soldiers return Fort Amol to the control Empire.  If you do not comply the Empire will be forced to TAKE the fort from you."

  "You will regret this Tulius.  You will regret it." I said calmy.

  "You have until the next full moon." he said walking away.

   

  I walk out of the city and hire a carriage to Fort Amol.  Waiting for the driver to prepare the horses I head back towards the local Inn.  I slow my steps hearing a deep throaty rumble in the shadows of a nearby alley.  I draw my sword and slowly walk towards the alley.  I quickly turn around hearing stone smack stone.  Mistake.  A black furred claw reached out towards me and drags me into the alley another claw slams a stone into the base of my skull causing me to black out.

  I awoke in a dark room hands bound to a chair.  I see a woman's figure in the shadows.  As she steps closer I recognize her face.  Delphine.  She motions her hand to her side.  At one moment nothing seems to be there and the next second a jet black Kajhiit comes into view.

  "Dro-Ma would like to ask you a question," it said.
