Soldiers of Legend
Page 39
“Indeed, Majesty,” Terinus rasped. “Rest well, and we will speak of it again tomorrow.” King Seamus turned and left the library, returning to his chambers to sleep for the remainder of the night. Terinus waited for his footsteps to recede, and then pulled a small, gleaming metal box from a pocket in his dark robes.
With a flick of one gloved finger upon the immaculate, reflective surface, the image of an ephemeral book appeared above the box, filled with pages of the ancient language belonging to the people that crafted it. He leafed through the glowing pages until he came across a diagram identical to the Ironlord, and resumed his research. Only the empty room saw the mirthless smile crease his ancient features.
