Ava followed her down the steps and settled into the chair opposite, nodding her head in agreement for a drink. "No one pegs me as anything I don't want them to. Much like you were able to slip into the role of humble servant, I can slip into whatever role suits me. Right now, arrogant sorceress...

Nayden challenge accepted. Though making me work harder for it means you lose valuable time with an inside source

The language that came from Mirielle's lips caught Ava off guard, even more so did the sensation that ran through her. She was not unfamiliar with the touch of Gods, but she had never enjoyed it. Ava closed her eyes till the bizarre sensation passed, shifting uncomfortably, though grateful for...

Nothing like a pair of dead bodies to make a statement. Certainly wasn't intentional, how could it be when they hadn't known she was coming? Ava paid them no mind, whatever their sins, the Dai believed they were deserving of this fate and who was she to question a zealot in his own home. She...

"I've known Halga since she was a child. Her father was killed protecting me from my brother. A long story for another night, but, I do everything I can to make sure they never want for anything." As she spoke, she led them inside. The doors weren't as low as the ex-ranger had made out, but...

The Queen of Tyria, Archlector Snaaib with Lady Mirielle on his arm (whom Ava offered a small bow of her head), the Emperor’s hound, Maho ‘Jerik’ Sparhawk, Uvogin and of course Ashunar who called the meeting Six out of eleven members of the Divan… it was good. Not of course for the Empire, the...

Nayden We need to talk....

Ava frowned at the question. If she said no, then there was a high chance Mirielle would do it anyway, if she said yes then she would know for certain that Ava's intentions within the Empire were less than honourable, a fact she might discover if her patrons felt the need to tell her anyway...

A week was plenty of time to make arrangements for her belongings and to send notice of delays that this would likely cause to her personal plans. Menalus would wait, after all her visit, though announced, was not one he requested. "Dwarves are odd." she confirmed, "Gifted, beyond any doubt, but...

Ava chuckled. "My position as a Vizier guarantees me nothing except a probable death sentence. I'm not going as a vizier. I'm going as myself, an elf who has been playing games in the shadows for as long as their order of assassins has been on record. And it is precisely that order I wish to...

"I will do no such thing." Ava replied, a little more sharply than she intended. Her expression softened, realising that Mirielle's concern was as genuine as it could get. "I have something that will guarantee me an audience, if i take a guard i may as well cut their throats myself. It is...

I'm here to crack open the prison and take whats inside.

Strengthening ties here was more about securing personal allies than it was about securing Lazular for Gerra. When the time was right, Ava would come to Mirielle and ask for the favour to be returned. After all, the woman had invited her, not the Empire, into Lazular. Of course one might argue...

Alone for the first time since the night had begun, Ava allowed herself a moment of weakness as she stepped into the short corridor, drawing in a deep shuddering breath, all the fears she'd been keeping at bay rolled over her with it. She exhaled slowly, letting go of the anxiety that had built...

Fortune would have it that business had brought her to Annukat a day before the meeting, giving her time to get the lay of the land, to bend a palace servant or two to her will and make herself known. Ashunar postured his way though the city with his Sipahi warriors while Ava made quiet but...
