The great hall was filled with the voices of Drow and dragon alike, the air was thick with outrage and disquiet. Moon waited only a few moments before calling them to Order. "Silence!!" Her eyes flashed steely grey as her voice rose inpressively to quiet those gathered. "This council's been called nae tae discuss, but tae orginize! Our information leads us tae beleive Aurok, Tass,Aurthur, an' Icewing 'ave been taken captive." She paused as outraged voices clamoured again, a few profanities ringing out among them. "Hold down!" Her voice rang clear and the voices died to a murmer then quiet again. she looked around before speaking again. "Tass is believed tae be held by Lawyers, an' ah 'ear they be nasty little critters oft used by scientists due tae rats bein cute in comparison.." Another pause as a snickers rose. "However. They be disease riddled an' underhanded, so be careful wit' them! Thses be nae trifling bein's iffin they be able tae 'old Tass." She was quite serious. Ah want squads formed an' ready tae mobilize in four hours! Othrim!" The big bronze dragon rose in response to her calling on him. "Yes my Lady Moon?" He was certain to be respectful, great aunt or not, he knew her to be tough, even on kin. "Ah want ye takin' eight o' ye best fliers tae th' North Valley an makin' ah sweep. We thought 'twas uninhabited but may be wrong. Mah daughter 'as it on good information there be slayers campin' out there. An' use caution, they 'ave dragon'sbane tainted arrows. Ah want nae casualties!" The big male nodded solomnly. "Yes my Lady it will be done." He turned and exited the hall to gather his eight. He already knew who he'd take, the finest and feircest eight in all the realm...Moon watched him go, then turned to address her Drow captain. "Vil'dri..Ah want ye tae take ana route o' th' underdark thet may lead under thet valley and spy out anythin' o' use. ana information ye can get may be the difference 'atween life an' death." The Drowess made no response, but to stand, clap a fist to her scantily armoured bosom and signal several other Drow to follow her. The job would be done and after any information was extracted, the informants woould be executed, and not likely in a humane way, either. Moon knew this, but she also knew her militia to be expert and precise. There were none better. "Th' rest o' ye ah want yer ears tae th' ground and th' wind an ah want ANY word ye hear brought tae mah immediate attention. Keep yer eyes open. Iffin ah'm unavailable, yer tae report directly tae Icer. Ye WILL follow her orders, nae questions asked. This meeting is dismissed!" Moon turned on her heel and stalked out, knowing there would be several air and ground sweeps. There would also be strategic terrain reports in case of any actual combat, they would be able to take full advantage. This was going to be a long night.
