Olrond Traug was not in good humour. It had been three days since he had been shown the truth behind the Order and Brin had come to turn herself in. In that time, Lakin had not requested his presence, and had even denied him entry to the Tower. The only contact the general had with Lakin was when he received a parchment ordering him to find the twins. He was to find and follow, but not interfere with anything, so the general set about getting a small band of ten soldiers ready.
Within two days, he was back on the road again. His course should have taken him straight south, but he had decided to go back to Klayhern. With everything going on, he needed to speak to the king. Although the general hadn't seen Brin since her arrival, he knew she was not harmed. Somehow, the eldest daughter of the king was going to play some important role. Traug only wished he had some idea as to what those plans were. He had hoped Lakin would call on him again, and explain everything in detail, but with Brin’s arrival Lakin was all consumed.
As Traug rode out the gate, he passed by an entire legion of Magima, and could only assume this was the group recalled from Keenley. That was another thing which bothered him, but now made sense. Lakin was recalling his underlings so he could use them in what was to come, but what was to come?
Frustrated and confused, General Traug rode out towards Klayhern. The only thing he could do now was hope he and the king could work out their differences.
