Soulless Sisters

---

“Shikken Moriyaki marched towards the large armored reptiles without an ounce of fear in his bones. Upon noticing the small skeleton, the Sclavi took to the offensive and rushed the creature. As the first Sclavus raised his spear in attack, Shikken swept the creature’s legs and plunged his sword into its heart. The cut was so precise the serpent writhed but a short moment before expiring.

“I do not come here for bloodshed, please lower your arms.” The Sclavi looked to one another. Instead of lowering their weapons, they took several steps back and held their aim steady, ready for any move.

“As you wish,” Shikken lowered his sword to his side, “I come on behalf of Hoshino Kei, the avatar of The Book of Eibhil and soon to be Queen of these lands.”

“Sssshe has The Book? It cannot be, ssshow usss.”

“You must know I would never bring The Book here. Instead I offer you to join us, and witness her power for yourself.”

“Why ssshould we trussst you?”

“I offer myself as proof. Not but days ago was I a lowly Sho blacksmith. Hoshino herself empowered me with the ways of the Falatacot and gave me the power I have now. I serve her and will be part of her court as she rules these lands. Would you like another example of this power?”

“We already ssserve T’thuun. The highessst power and god of thisss world.”

“To serve one does not prevent service to the other. The goals are the same. Would you rather sit idly by as we conquer these lands or be a tool for the Old One and his desires? Who do you think he will reward when he is released onto this land. Those who did nothing? Or those who fought and conquered in his name?”

Shikken Moriyaki turned his back on the serpents as he spoke his final argument, “there will be no other chance to join this fight. Hoshino has gathered many forces, and will gather many more. Even those who served the foolish and weak Mhoire have been turned to our side. This very moment Hoshino readies a ritual with other powerful Falatacot to take the next step in this fight. Join now my brothers, or be left behind forever.”

The Sclavi hissed to one another frantically. Just last week they would have seen a slight smug grin wash over Shikken’s face, but now the bare bones hid his emotions from the world.

“Councccil ssshall be called. Come with usss and you ssshall have your answer.”

“Excellent. You have made the right choice friends. I’m sure the council will as well, after which we shall celebrate your decision. Then you can meet the Living Book and see the power of Eibhil.”

"The sight was a strange one as the group of tall Sclavus, who surrounded a small glowing skeleton, wandered off into the hills.”
