Assembly
Materializing before the palace, Sophia and I watched the results. The general assembly bell had been sounded, and many were in the process of gathering, redirecting from their walk toward the Gate Portal. However, many others were still headed that way, ignoring Sophia’s assembly.
A general confusion about what was happening seemed to be prevalent. People didn’t know why they were going one way or the other. Only the need to go prevailed among everyone.
Oliver, Donatus, Laish and Redclaw appeared in the square with us, all of them transported by one of Superomancers. Lycans gathered before us, waiting to hear from their queen. In the meantime, the exodus continued on the main street behind the growing crowd. It was difficult to say how many were going or staying, and some looked as though they might gather to us, only to turn around and head away with the others.
Sophia stepped up to the dais which elevated her above the crowd. Eyes were drawn to her as she began to speak. Even some who were leaving turned back to listen.
“My fellow Lycans, I know that you have heard the call of Anubis,” she said loudly. “I have heard him also, and the drawing is very strong. However, this is a move by our enemies. The Fallen have been drawn into mortal bodies, seeking a way into this world. We must fight the desire to answer this call.”
She had their attention, but the migration continued behind the mass of citizens still listening.
“Our heritage is being used against us!” she continued.
Still, Lycans were leaving. But it appeared that many were willing to listen to their queen. As for the others, there was nothing anyone could do to stop them. The last thing this situation needed was a battle breaking out. At the very least, those who had control of their faculties might lose their inhibition and also go to Anubis.
“Many are leaving,” Sophia observed. “We must prepare for what may come. My army is deserting us.”
She was right. The soldiers were among the frontrunners making their way toward the portal. I wasn’t sure if this was because many of them had served Kron during his coup and were eager to be free of the new queen, or if they simply gave in to this unction because they were men of war. Either way, most of the army was headed for London and Anubis.
