Schemer
2300 Words
The tapestry came out gorgeous. Arahni disappeared, but Angus still felt their presence here. You need to erase everyone with fire!
Type of tapestry make him crazy. In addition to the map of magic countries, survived with his county, it portrayed something like a wedding of Amaranta and the king of elves.
He can not destroy the work of Arahni. Angus tried to burn tapestry, to cut off with his sword, and to break. All attempts were in vain. But the malicious laughter of Arachni came from all over the corners.
“This is a portal to another world! Do you want to penetrate through it in my kingdom?” Suddenly, Medea Shai was formed from the darkness behind his back. She acquired Anguus from behind with her hands similar to two pale snakes. How many fingers have her palm? Six? Seven? Ten? All of them are crowned with black nails, and each of them tears on the coat of Angus.
From the grip of the queen of fairies was difficult to free. Angus made an effort. Medea Shai sighed disappointed.
“Such a nice boy and such a touchy person! Did not plan to go to the monks?”
“The monastery for Finodirry was built from the nearest temple,” Angus was angry. “Do you want to become their mother superior?”
“This is not a monastery community, but the isolated possesion of the evil spirits. Someone from your people carefully thanked these creatures for the services, so they built up from you the wall of invisibility. Now you and the paths to that temple will not find.”
“Is this a symbol of the fact that my marriage with the Amaranta is destroyed?”
Medea Shai nodded. Corundum in her forehead sparkled dazzling. Angus even clogged from its light. Together with the queen of Fairies flew a terrible black bird, in the forehead of which was also burning scarlet stone.
"Her name is Black," the queen of fairies presented with pride. “She is my ears and eyes in other worlds. Sh tells me everything. Even about your sadness, and how your wife is behaved in the kingdom of elves. By the way, this tapestry symbolizes her new wedding. Exactly a century later, from her first meeting with Dagda, the deduction should be held from the date of your wedding. True, funny! It will be exactly a hundred years, and it will make a second marriage with those who saw for the first time on her first wedding. Spicy detail of the biography, isn't it?”
Angus was in rage.
“Amarantas amorality is already whispering all the population of my state!” Medea Shai again tried to hug him. “We, of course, do not condemn it. But how can you? If the Amaranta was the fairy of my country, she would have become exiled for a long time. But you obviously do not intend to forget about her?”
Medea Shai looked in his eyes.
“I'm burning and insulting your strong feeling towards her. It, like fire, burns you from the inside. Better to distract you.”
“Soon is the war! The King of Ilion callson the army.”
"I know, neighbors attack him, but they are not the worst." He quarreled with his ice friend, and now the defeat does not avoid the kingdom. All around will turn into ice. But not your county. While you are in the union with me, I will not allow anyone to freeze anything here. . You were lucky that you called me. I will patronize you.”
“But I am a vassal of the king. I must obey if he calls.”
“I, with him, by the way, talked a little. He is an attractive young man, but his great mind did not endorse. The whole bet is on his physical strength. He will lose with it.” Against the armies of ice elves, weapons are useless. In the arsenals of the king There are a lot of rapiers, chains, even muskets and carbines, but he does not have any magic. This is a pure suicide to go with a weapon against the spell.
“Ice elves?” Angus frowned. “Also vassals of Dagda?”
“Former! Fortunately, otherwise, he would be very superior to my dark troops. And do not perceive so literally the name "elves". The ice elves are ugly. They are absolutely invulnerable. Even the fire can be scared for a while. Your fiery accelerations against them are almost powerless. They scare them only for minutes at ten, as a maximum. So the siege of your castle can not be allowed. Otherwise, very quickly you will have to capitulate. I'm going to leave, but how can you stay here.”
Her slippery fingers slid over his shoulder in the next attempt to seduce. Angus squeezedly pulled away. The queen of fairies was incomprehensible, but he threw in a shiver from her touches. It seems that spiders are crawling on the skin when she touches you.
- You do not see me as a temptress?” She smiled temptingly. “For a gallant knight is a shameful that the woman will protect him, even if the fairy? Or do you want to return your wife?”
For all three questions, the answer was "yes", but Angus did not want to insult her. The queen of Fairies naturally wants to leave all the advantages for herself. Everyone should call the most beautiful and desirable her only, and otherwise the war will be with her.
How dangerous charms of fairies and elves are, Angus knew from servants. In the room of Amaranta was found a monstrous lily. It had put the shoots and strangled several maids at once, which made cleaning. While the girls cleaned the carpets and wipe the dust, the stems of lily began to winde the neck. One unfortunate they even drowned in a can with water. How can get rid of the parasite lily even Spark did not know. From his fire she did not light up.
Ask for the advice of Medea Shai Angus was ashamed. It is not known that she will require for her help.
“Do I have to conclude a written contract with you?”
“I'm not Dagda. All contracts can be broken. But against my magic will not be speaking,” she demonstrated a whole whirlwind of black sparks from her nails. They slipped in the hall as a real hurricane.
“Stop!”
Black also suffered from the hurricane. Her lush black tail lost several feathers at once. Medea Shai does not protect even their pets. What to say about the allies! The feathers of Black, fallen on the floor, flickerered with the splashes of red pebbles, similar to rubies.
“What do you want from me?” Angus asked directly.
"I want to take you into my kingdom and make you my close associate," she smiled slyly.
“Excluded!”
“The position of my favorite gives a lot of privileges. You won't be old, you will not die, you will not suffer from diseases. You will get my caress as a prize. Does it not tempt you?”
“I feel more comfortable at home.”
“Even if your wife will not return?”
Medea Shai again affected him.
"Okay, you're clever," she gave up. “My current favorites immediately began to be jealous. Being the master of the castle is always more convenient than to be an irrevocated pet of crown.”
Black and red train of Medea Shai left black fog clubs instead of traces. The fog was in bizarre signs and faces, stretched to Angus with theirs claws.
"I want you to separate Dagdu and Amaranta. And all! More from you will not need. In return, I will give you a lot. Do not listen to all those dirty gossip about me. In fact, I am generous. And I intervened in your complex relationship only because I want good to you and Amaranta.”
Is there something good with a mixture of black? Angus looked at the queen of fairies with admiration and distrust. She is a powerful winged beauty, followed by the monsters army. It is better to have her as ally than as enemy. But can he believe her?
Adeline came to the kingdom of elves disheveled and in bruises.
“He wanted to give me to rebels. You imagine, the count decided that I was made of pure gold!” She complained noisily. “He went crazy! Why did you run away from him? It is hard to live with a madman!”
“I did not run away. I was kidn*pped,” Amaranta was weakly justified.
“It is difficult to believe.” Adelines eyes scattered on the new wardrobe of Amaranta. She had to give her an elegant gold grid for hair and a couple of coral crests.
“Elf even on the captivs will not be stored, so fading them with gifts?” she was sincerely amazed. “And what to say about their queens?”
“Dagda is single. There is no queen here.”
‘Try to become the queen!” Adeline got carried away. “And I will try to become at least a local noble lady. What do you think, at least one elf will be seduced?’
‘In this form, it is unlikely,” without a flattery appreciated Amaranta her girlfriend.
After a long journey to the kingdom of elves Adeline reminded a begger.
"It is a pity that they did not kidnap me," she enviously looked at the outfits of Amaranta.
“Take something yourself. I allow.”
Will the king of the elves not be angry for it?”
“He will not be angry.”
Adeline was blocked a little and chose a modest pastel dress with an overwhelmed waist and a short train. It could be called modest only in comparison with the rest of the wardrobe. And if you compare with the outfits left in the county, it was truly royal.
"Such a feeling that the cloth throws the skin with me," Adeline complained.
As it turned out, it was natural. In order for the effect of fabric bissing passed, just needed to report Dagda that Adeline is not a thief at all.
"Okay, let them live with us and uses everything that she wants," said the king of the elves.
“I want something else.”
“What? To take all your girlfriends here, even those who are already engaged with the vassals of Angus?”
“I mean Luellin. She is alone among people. They wanted to melt her on gold bars.”
“It is impossible. They will not come out! If they try, the gold will be burned them to death or they themselves will be the statues. You could check what will come out if you cut off the little finger of gold copy and integrate it into something else. The thing cast from its particle will be damned and destructive for everyone who will take it into the hands or at least see. And the little finger itself will immediately grow back.”
“But she is brainless! Suddenly she will lead someone here.”
“She is not so stupid. She must live with people and pretend mortal.”
“Or maybe let her live in one of the uninhabited seeds?”
“Did you see such here?”
“Yes, those in which treasures are stored.”
“Treasures always keeps someone.”
“And she can watch them if we cause it. She is made of gold. She will be a faithful keeper.”
“I could call her here, and not kidnap. She is just enough to crush any doors and come to us. But she is not a cute creation that looks like you. You will see only an empty face without damn in addition to a blank head. When there is no need to cover a promotion, she either takes the appearance of all the oncoming or becomes faceless. You can't even know her. So let her sit in the castle. Thanks to her, we will have our own agent.”
“Do we need it?”
"The queen of fairies negotiates about something with your husband," Dagda admitted and showed her a casket with ash.
“What did burn in it?”
“Our contract with Angus.”
It was not difficult to him to show her mentally the scene of how the contract burns with the flame and wriggles in it as if living salamander.
“So it happened because of my a*******n?’
“The contract burns only when it is broken on both sides. Angus broke it first. Otherwise, the responsibility for termination of the contract would be on me, as on the kidnapper.”
Amaranta regretted that she did not understand anything in the rules of conclusion and termination of transactions. There is so much precarious. And it is not clear how Angus could be the first to terminate the agreement.
"He called on other forces," Dagda explained, seeing her confusion. “Black forces and witchcraft.”
“Namely?”
“Medea Shai and her hordes.”
“He called them to destroy his own castle?!”
“He did not expect that she would come like a commander and a destroyer. After all, it happened to negotiate peacefully. But not everyone is so good-natured like me. For example, Medea Shai has always been a warrior and a schemer.
“How did he occur to it in his head? For what?”
Dagda only shrugged, diligently hiding a look.
