Setting the plan in motion

Rudra set his plan in motion , procuring serpent's Dale , a poison specially created to be tasteless and odorless , was bought in bulk from Purplehaze city under millitary quota . 

The scouts were already sent to enquire about the merchant responsible for getting supplies to the fort. 

It was apparently a NPC corporation called Nineclouds Trade company who was responsible for military contracts , which was a small company based in the capital city of Nineclouds kingdom. 

The rations were protected using military personnel , and private hired mercenaries . Hence if Rudra wanted to pull of poisoning the food , he needed to replace an entire guard division with his fake soldiers. 

The security of the food itself was not the problem , however the process of poisoning it was complicated. Things like injections were not invented yet in this world , hence Rudra had to place a bulk order of injections to fatty kalash in urgent priority.
