Nashim looked at his reflexion in the mirror. Black hair, flowing on his forehead and shoulders. The small posture of ten years old child with beautiful, almost unreal face. He knew this face can trick everyone...well...almost everyone.

Now, when he showed his cards to the queen, he had to play with them. He didn't want to expose so quickly, he wanted to stay in shadow and still pull the strings. But she got to know about his plans for her son and made a scene. That talk was extremely pleasant but also very dangerous for him. Despite his words about Zakrivea, he really was afraid that Rabra can harm her. Not that she was defenseless, no. He just wanted to keep her safe. Rabra was a mother and - as every mother - would do everything to save her child.

As for the child...If he told the king that he isn't his, he probably would do nothing. He was weak and it was easy for Nashim to manipulate him. But he loved Dhuren and won't sacrifice this love for just a words, even if they came from Lord Advisor. He had to plan the final move with smallest details, because if he failed, the king will remove him from his council and that will be the end of the plot. He started to get nervous as the plan was getting more shape. But he knew how to make a stone grimace and walk by the problems that were more and more heavy as the time was passing. The queen was only one false tune in the spiderweb he spinned. The guards of the king started to talk about him in this manner that always led to conclusion that Lord Advisor isn't the best man on the king's right arm. He was just an elf, after all. Elves were reduced to the role of the slaves twenty years ago and only this Rission lord survived the massacre of the high elven lords. That was wrong, they thought. Elf should work, not advise the high authority.

That thought made him furious. He looked once again in the mirror. On his face a crack appeared that made him look far more menacing that he usually looked. How they dared to enslave his brothers and sisters? Elves were older than human race, they were owners of this land. They were first and nature loved them when people didn't even exist. Now they had to work in the mines and in the noble houses, taking all humility that their masters offered. Many of them were coming to Nashim with the ask for help but he couldn't do anything beside giving them small jobs in his department. It wasn't as it should be. They should wear the crowns and give back nature what was hers.

If his plan succeded, the humans will be made on slaves, that was his promise to himself. He wanted they feel the pain his family felt when they put their hands in the chains for the first time. Their proud smiles on their ugly faces will be smeared out as soon as he will get the throne. The great rebellion will rise the dragon heads and he will call his friends from Unseen Realms. That will be the end of humanity.

He smiled to his reflection, bringing again the mask of the calm beauty. Soon...
