Our Arrival
We hid in the forest near the castle. No need for announcements of our arrival. Our presence will soon be felt by the castle\'s inhabitants.
The creatures of the forest know who we are and what we are. They have already become restless. I can see the outlines and shadows of the creatures moving through the forest watching us. They creep through the bushes and moonlight but they do not come near.
There is a new presence here with us...I can feel it\'s power. I feel like I have plunged into an icy lake. Such power I have never felt before. I try to focus on the power and find where it is coming from. I wonder if the others of the seven can feel it.
\"They have arrived\" my master whispers. Without a word I make my way through the tree tops silently. I know what I must do.
The group pass under the tree where I am positioned. The leader seems to be the old wizard. The onle whe who senses where I am is the cat. It looks at me but remains silent as it\'s owner walks toward the forest where my Master waits.
Master has come out of hiding and waits for the men at the edge of the forest. He talks to the old wizard. I wait for any sign that my master needs me. After a few minutes of conversation my master gives the signal that all is well. Silently I jump from the tree and cover my head with the hood of my cloak.
The group feels my presence but does not realize the we, the seven have surrounded them. If master had given the signal all would be dead by now. Even the old wizard. The power the I had felt earlier does not come from this group. The old wizard and the dark one are indeed powerful. The power that I felt earlier was different than the power that they have. How? I don\'t know...
The group has no ideal the seven are approaching them. Hoods up and faces hidden as master has commanded. These men are not to see our faces until the time is right. The dark one is questioning master. He wants to know why he is a and and where the seven are. Master smiles and points behind the men where we have already taken our place.
