C'rathin, the sponsored guide, spies their final destination as they mount the ridge. It has been 6 nights through the Pellee Forest to deliver the precious cargo that is hoisted upon Artonge's back. The band of five travellers, commisioned to deliver a special package to the D'nil king (T'say) in the Ptangt provence are beset with elation at the sight of the provincial capital castle ahead. Not one member of their band has been lost during the journey. What the band of travellers does not know is that the package itself is not the important delivery. It is sweet Dian, the quellor's daughter, who is the intended prize of the delivery. She is beautiful, lithe and her skin is part armour part softest baby's skin. It is said that her voice can charm the wicked and turn pure evil to angel dust. T'say must possess this beauty for his bride. He does not know or understand the power of the band of five whom he has commisioned for the delivery. They are not so easily taken and the battle to follow will be retold centuries there after.
