Now that everyone was gathered in the council room the meeting was ready to begin. The council room was very large, in it laid a beautifully made wooden table with a map of the Cruster bay uniquely carved on it, stretching right cross the middle of the room and was beautifully decorated with food of all sorts. King veron was seated at the head of the table in a big chair,standing behind him to the left was Commander quick hand, general commander of the Crater army,John Mor Hort was his real name but he was nicknamed because he was very quick with his sword,beside him to the right was Sir Urian leader of the kings guard and second in command to Quick hand. Next seated to the king's right going down was beautiful Queen Rebecca,two seats down was high lord Pilar,with one seat between seated high Lord Sarmen,next was El Soran White, a handsome young man with hair as white as snow and same was his skin,his eyes were blue as the sky on a sunny day with a dark gothic look, lay at his feet was Ednir a big grey wolf alongside two other wolfs Breath and Dharian. At the other end of the table parallel to the king was lord Deh Ora White leader and lord of the snowing city of Grey den,his eyes were bright brown and skin mirroring his son's,El Soran,and same was his hair. Next to him seated Sel Sora White,his daughter,you could almost say she was El Soran's twin because the only thing separating their looks was the fact that you could tell she was a girl and her hair was a little bit longer than his. Beside her was Sir Peter Hall adviser of Deh Ora,with two seats between was Prince Veron and beside him was Sir Benito.

"Calm down Sir Peter." Stated high lord Sarmen with his mouth fill with food as he was almost the only one around table with much interest in the food.
221Please respect copyright.PENANAhZfjECt0Pu
"That's no way to be speaking in front of your king and queen. I know you must be angry at losing those two,even though the bodies were found on dwarf's land,this is still not the place to be pointing fingers; in fact the dwarfs and your people have made peace with each other for six centuries now,I don't see why they would attack any of your men."
221Please respect copyright.PENANAXNFsEkPyY2
"I don't see why they wouldn't." Said Sir Peter,now speaking still with angry but a little calmness in is tone this time.

"Guards!,summon Dhario and Hunter;tell them to bring with them what we found in Hearth forest cave." Shouted Veron to the guards at the door of council room.
The two guards left to fetch Dhario and Hunter leaving every one in the room staring at the door way.
221Please respect copyright.PENANAzRGpDLJmv1
"Let's eat and fill ourselves until the guards come back,in fact I know our guests from house White should be tired and hungry from that four days of travel in getting here." Stated queen Rebecca trying to get every one to be more comfortable and calm.
"Shall we?" Asked high lord Sarmen rhetorical, as his mouth was already fill with food.
"Lord Pilar what do you make of this mystery? Who do you think kill these two men? Like myself here you haven't spoken a word." Benito inquired.
"Well,Lord Pilar said trying to put all the pieces together."I really don't know what to think .Until I see what Prince Veron had found and depending on what is brought forth I won't be able to solve it if we don't know what it is,further more as the bodies was found on dwarfs territory their now our only suspects,still we should not jump to any conclusion."
221Please respect copyright.PENANAXTXSJYVAux
As lord Pilar was finish speaking in came the two guards with Dhario and hunter behind them both carrying one of the biggest axes any one in the Crater hall as ever seen. Both man was struggling to carry the axes as it was as heavy as it looks,the handle was very fat looking as if it takes two pair of hands to hold it and both head of the axe was the size of one and a half of any normal man's head as it was a double headed battle axe. The blades was stain with blood and a green blood like substance was dripping off the langets of the axe.

221Please respect copyright.PENANApTzh8kX4S5
"Take his word for it your grace." Added Hunter, while all the council was members was now walking over to him to inspect the axe. Even commander quick hand and sir Urian wanted to see what kind of axe is was.

Axe like this was found on battle areas and was stored in the Citadel." Added lord Pilar. Everyone was now shock.
221Please respect copyright.PENANAqgZIQpahxB
" I swear on my blood!" Said El Soran in anger, while walking up to the axe he bit is finger so there was blood.
221Please respect copyright.PENANAJFbNNjGTCP
