Viconia found the party at the tavern. Adrian was actually worried about her. She had to smile at that; it seemed the Bhaal essence was good for something besides the obvious.

She spoke to the group in low murmurs. No one paid much attention; the tavern was often used for plotting. It was, after all, the Drow way.

"I be nae objectin to killin the cackle-farts of the presumtious Wyrm," muttered Korgan, "Nor fightin her afterwards. It's the matter of it helpin Irenicus and us gettin out o the city that bothers me."

"Oh I had an idea about that," said Viconia. I'm thinking someone might stab Phaere in the back during the confusion." She looked at Haer'Dalis. "I know you prefer the loud drama of theatre, but perhaps you can oblige?"

Haer'Dalis smiled. "Entropy may indeed come to the ambitious Drow lass before her time."

"Beg pardon, friend," said Zavrian. "But I rather think I have more experience at that sort of thing. Any of us can kill. Not all of us have experience at doing it discreetly."

"Why Zav," Jan said. "I thought you were the more honorable sort of pirate?"

"I am, against honorable opponents," said Zavrian. "But remember, we--my family and I--often had to fight scum like Saemon and Desharik. You do what it takes to win."

Viconia shrugged. "I don't care who does it, so long as it's done. Then, we can decide what to do with the eggs."

Adrian stirred. "I gather now is the time?"

"Yes, szinsring, now is indeed the time."

As they approached the temple, there was a flash of teleportation. All of them braced for a battle, fearing they had been discovered, but it was only Soulafein.

"I have been watching you, my friends, and Phaere as well," he said without premable. I think I know what she intends. I have made a second copy of the eggs, and--"

"Enough of this," a new voice interrupted.

They turned, Soulafein as surprised as the party. Behind them stood a single Drow male, with blazing eyes.

Viconia recognized him, too late, as one of the Drow the party had fought beneath Durlago's tower, so long ago.

"Your plan ends here," he intoned.
The road to the abyss may be paved with good intentions, but it is those with bad intentions that race down that road as fast as they can.

I'd replace "was worried" with "looked worried", because it's Viccy's chapter.

Cool! :twisted: That's what I call a cliffhanger!

A commendable approach. ;) I wholly approve.
