Ares Fortuna looked at the message he had received from the Dagger and thought about possible replies, but the only one possible was to send a message to Captain Titan of the Dagger telling him to proceed with his plan, but with caution. Looking across at the man who had brought the message to him, and he instructed him to do just that. Fortuna couldn`t think what might have delayed the men, they were armed with powerful energy weapons that had been more than capable of killing the large dinosaurs that roamed throughout the second of the domains, what was missing from his calculations?
Magi looked at him, saw his problem ridden face, and attempted to smile, but it came out more like an evil grimace.
“Your team is unimportant Ares, only the death of Marot and Patina Pallas at the hands of the Orionist is important, leave such other minor points to your staff while you plan your future.” Magi advised.
“I wish that I could dismiss their disappearance quite as easily as you can Magi, there is something wrong here, and when such a thing is not understood it could easily come back and bite us.”
