"Nero."
Asher turned to Nero after the other two left.
"My Lord." He faced Asher, his eyes sharp.
"Prepare 200 paladins. We will go on an expedition to Mount Seir and forge an alliance with the descendants of the giants."
Asher rose up.
His intention was the warp stone. Actually, it was a unique metal ore and not a stone and apart from the little stock the Edomites gave to him, there was nowhere else to find it except Mount Seir.
He couldn't believe those half-giants sat on top of a mountain that had such a miraculous treasure!
Luckily, no form of force could power the warp stone, only mana and he had abundance of it.
His king's blood also allowed him to transfer a tiny bit of this trait to his men but to access such honour, he wanted soldiers who were devoted to his cause.
So much that nothing, absolutely nothing could change their loyalty toward him.
Men like Alex!
"When, my lord?"
"Tomorrow. Before first light."
