Here the world's align

Lament had found himself curious about the Empire Deathbelle had started. Having aligned himself with the previous Empress, and then finding himself cast adrift as another found his way into her arms. It was time to move on, and his fondness for the woman would remain. Monogamy and forever weren't popular concepts in a people that gave their love freely to anyone that caught their eye, and there was no hard feeling between them. Leaving Deathbelle in the capable hands of Magnus, and with her blessing, he would find himself at Ashens borders.

His eyes traveled the parts of the land he could see from outside its borders. It was easily defendable, especially with its neighboring ally parked against its east edge. Its scent was strong, with Venom and her warriors. A hint of Armada tinged in with the wcents of Ashen. He would keep his thoughts of the Armada Warlord to himself.

Prepared to make a place for himself, and sell his sword to this Empire, he tipped back his head and howled for its leader.
