The keeper just wouldn't break. Aurifort was being washed from head to toe by the merchandise, blood tainting the water he was in. The blood belonged to a keeper they had taken from the shroud. The feisty girl had so much fight in her and would not submit to their will. He even had the tower torture her for a day straight and the damn girl would not budge. Perhaps the fetcher was losing his edge? Or maybe it was just the pressure of having the master breathing down his neck. Aurifort shivered at the thought of upsetting the master and stared at the bloody water. How long had it been since he was truly afraid? He controlled so many lives and could take them all at a moment's notice but he felt powerless against the master. Even the Tower would freeze in place when speaking to the master, the tower!
Aurifort clenches his fist in anger and thought of Pyralis. The source of his anguish and pain. The bard was so damn illusive and he was so close to having him. The Elezen walked by the hired assassin, a black haired Hyur  who was perhaps the assassin's apprentice,and the master's pet. If they had been in the shroud that meant Pyralis was there as well...right under his nose. Hide in plain sight, didn't I teach him that so many years ago? Aurifort thought grinding his teeth in anger. The merchandise continued to wash him carefully and must of sensed his growing anger as they began to scrub extra gentle. The Elezen laid his head back and closed his eyes. He had grabbed the master's slave and the slave confirmed that they were after Pyralis. The anger had nearly blinded him and he would of cut the girl's throat right there had she not been branded for the master. When he got her back, he would make sure to discipline her on behalf of the master. He would make sure she suffers tenfold for provoking his anger.
Aurifort had sent a small team dressed as wood wailers to capture the bunch but the report he got back from the Tower was that they were all dead. The tower had told him that the group had actually teleport out together. The assassin had played them even though the master said she would not disappoint. Aurifort had not told the master yet as he knew the fury he would unleash. He specifically did not want to deal with the master's personal advisor, that creature had to be from the void. Well he would have to take out his anger on his own personal pet, the red head Sarah. Aurifort had not branded her or spoiled her yet as he wanted to have the honor of doing it in front of Pyralis. The tower came lumbering in and grunted towards Aurifort.
"I hope you've brought me good news Tower." The Elezen said keeping his eyes closed and head back.
"Gone. No sign. Disposed of bodies." The tower said in his rough voice.
"They'll come...I told the master's slave to pass the message along. I know for a fact she will do so. Start preparing the defenses old friend. When they come I want them to be surprised. I want them to feel the fury. Prepare for anything." Aurifort said running a wet hand through his black hair.
"I prepare all. If assassin come. I want." The tower said turning and leaving.
Aurifort smiled and almost felt sorry for the assassin once the tower had her in his clutch. Almost.
