An Accord of Darkness (Rommelisch)
Hera waited outside the large black metal doors for permission to enter Rommelisch's chamber with studied patience.
She hoped Fortunbras would not be with him, much as she appreciated the superior appearance of the younger mage, he was a distraction more than anything else. For both herself and the old man.
What she wished to discuss with Zedrich, she was not certain was for the ears of his apprentice, no matter how much Rommelisch vouched for him.
Fortunbras' youth made him susceptible to appetites long forgotten by those of Zedrich's age. Appetites of ambition and power, things Hera herself still lusted after.
Yes, it would be much better if Rommelisch was alone.
