Chapter Fifteen

“Everything will be ready in three days, Chancellor Mharú. The Sentinels, the army, the propaganda. All of it.”

“Excellent, Ashur. I am completely in awe of your transformation. You’ve taken a fledgling program and made a master work of it. Your dedication will not be forgotten. When I come into my kingdom, I will remember you.”

“Your praise is reward enough, chancellor. The only other satisfaction I need is to see the dragonborn eradicated. This entire plan is yours, from start to finish, has been executed masterfully. I’m just happy I was allowed to be a part of it. I’ll go and bring them in now.”

Ashur turned to go, and the chancellor prepared himself to receive his guests. The seven families had not been together in a very long time. Chancellor Mharú was the last of his line and had been under tremendous pressure to marry and continue his family. And he certainly planned to, but before that could happen, he needed to touch it. True power.

The other families had quietly ruled their respective domains for many years and never once had any issues; this fact had teased them into thinking they were competent and while they were certainly more effective than the chancellor, the truth was that none of the families had faced the challenges that Myamar had. They had never given a formal reason for their leaving, but he knew it was because of the portal. They knew their ancestors had barely managed to capture the dragonborn before and even then, it had cost the world greatly. They were afraid of the thing, afraid it would open up again and the dragonborn would wreak terrible havoc on their lives.

But the chancellor had never wanted to live anywhere else. His family had moved generations previous, but as soon as he was a man he moved back to Arvall. He had made it his responsibility to manage the city from which they all came. For many years, his staying was the only positive mark in his long list of embarrassing mistakes. But all of that was about to change. Just as he had settled into a pose he thought was welcoming, but also formidable, Ashur reappeared.

“Where are the families?” the chancellor asked.

“They’re refusing to see you, sir.”

“What?”

“They say you haven’t yet proven yourself worthy of their presence.”

“How dare they! Do they have any idea what I’ve been through? What I’ve done to get here?”

“I’m sorry, chancellor. I insisted, but they said it was impossible. They won’t see you until you’ve done what you promised to do and eradicated the dragonborn. They say they don’t believe you have the power or... forgive me, chancellor... the courage to carry through on your claims. They only came to see the University out of nostalgia. They’re going to be staying up in the professors’ quarters in the mountain. They’ve asked that neither you nor any of your administration bother them until the task is done.”

Chancellor Mharú was so furious he began to get hot. He swiped his hand across his desk and knocked everything off onto the floor.
