Gran, in fact, felt just fine about a nice jaunt to the Costa del Sol... well, more of a working holiday, really, but those could be rewarding, also. Strolling along the beach with her granddaughter, stealing occasional glances up at the castle on the hill above, Ynarra placidly discussed ways and means of conquering it.
"This is an ambitious undertaking, my dear. What were your plans for invading the fortress?"
"We... hadn't yet made any... and we were thinking more along the lines of abstracting a guard or two from the Keep and questioning them about the Traitor. With my crystals, they wouldn't have to answer, just think of her face for me to know. But now, I suppose we do have to take the whole castle, huh?"
"If she doesn't come out, I'm afraid so, Marea dear. Could you get a good look at her?"
"Unfortunately, no. Her hood was pulled way down over her face." |
