CHAPTER 99

MOUNTAIN CITY

 

 

 

 Aihola looked up from where she lay on her bed listening to the message from Tari again when she heard the door to her small quarters open and close. Her fingers closed around the handle of the R4 Razor Hybrid Knife. The doubled bladed weapon was one of a dozen that had been secreted into Mountain City and picked up by Cantel earlier in the morning. The R4 was a new designed knife, forged from High Elf Steel but finished with a matte black coating of Teflon, making it virtually indestructible. She had taken to the weapon immediately, quickly realizing the one Cantel had given her was perfectly weighted and balanced for her own hand. Cantel had told her that it was Dysea who had given specifications that were ideally suited for Aihola. She had smiled at the time thinking she would have to thank the Wood Elf Queen in a similar way.
