A few nights later...

Nosdyn and his woman Xelldra are discussing matters that night. The conversation is relaxed and lover's talk mainly.

A knock on their chamber door. "Come." Nosdyn says he was once one of their esteemed leaders and still garnered respect.

It was his son, Tharak who enters the room. He has a concerned look on his face. "Father there may be a problem." He says in a very serious way. Nosdyn sees that Lilly is by his side as always.

Nosdyn nods. "What troubles you my son?" He gets up and gets dressed, he normally slept skyclad.

Xelldra does the same and also gets dressed on her lord's actions.

Nosdyn looks at his son.

"The Lloth sisterhood is moving against us." Tharak says with a frown.

"We know that was their intent." Nosdyn says and a moment later they are outside gathered in the halls of their temple.

"They've gathered a force to storm our temple." Tharak explains.

Nosdyn nods. "That was going to happen someday." He looks at his son. "Today is a good day to die." He says as his own Father might have said.

"By your side a warrior's death is as true as any." Tharak nods and bows to his Father. "Let's protect our people."

"Aye today is a good day to die." He presses his fist against his own chest in a proud sort of way.

They were prepared to die if need be that day...
