Day Three
تخت جمشید ، امپراتوری هخامنشی, c.465 BC
Xerxes peered around at the assembled courtiers, and noticed that their number was considerably lighter than it had been when he saw them together last; the Apple had not alerted him to any danger during the night, and yet three people were missing, so the God-King rose to his feet and walked into the centre of the room.
"Who is missing among your number?"
There was silence initially, as the courtiers began to assess who had not turned up; they began to argue among themselves, each trying to ascertain the whereabouts of the other while maintaining their own innocence. Little headway was made for around an hour before they eventually came to the conclusion that both
Nightbringer and
Seon were missing.
Xerxes ordered two of his Immortals to find the dwellings of the missing pair and learn their fate, while he assured those present that the perpetrator for these injustices would be punished soon. It did not take long for the guards to return with tales of murder; two clean kills with little sign of a struggle and no evidence as to who was responsible.
The God-King shook for a moment, before staggering wearily over to his throne; two fine men lost to the traitors, but there would be no more if the court was a little wiser and more vigilant today. He nodded his head curtly, and they descended into their second day of discussion.
