 +//She paced slowly around the long table, absent-mindedly inspecting the place
 +settings.  The dinner would naturally be perfect.  The meal was already being
 +prepared in the secret kitchen and the slaves who knew of the main ingredient
 +would be executed before dawn.  The guards were charmed and even the best of
 +them were expendable.  They were, after all, only human.//
 +
 +//No, what troubled her was the meeting's agenda.  It had been nearly three years
 +since the shadowcoup and their progress was lagging seriously behind schedule.
 +The window of opportunity, she feared, was closing fast.//

 +//Perhaps the king's bones would be the difference, but even that mission was (at
 +best) only a stopgap.  Real power eluded them in the north and even a complete
 +takeover of the southern baronies might not be enough to hold these lands.
 +Perhaps the others would have better news.  The church warden, especially, had
 +offered great promise.//
 +
 +//As it had done many times before, the doubts crept into her mind.  Was this plan
 +worth it?  Was this climate too inhospitable for them?  Were the natives too
 +organized?  She regretted not joining her sister in the orc-infested elf
 +kingdom.  Orcs were so much easier to control than humans.  Still...  The prize
 +was so great, it **must** be worth the risk.  And there was over two centuries
 +of groundwork to back them up.//
 +
 +//No...  This plan would work.  It **had** to.  The Serpent Kingdom was already
 +faltering in the south.  They **needed** this land to survive.  And they would
 +have it -- no matter the cost!//
