Tassin shot Pervor a disgusted look and left, ordering the guard outside to bring food and water. The soldier gaped at the stranger, then went to do as she bid.
“What are your orders?” Pervor asked the strange warrior.
He turned his head towards the advisor. “On command, seek the area known as the Death Zone and destroy it.”
“I know you are programmed to obey me as well as the Queen, so be ready for new orders.”
“Understood.”
Pervor extinguished some of the torches before leaving, passing the returning guard.
