Sorry everyone. I might not get a chapter today due to having to make a trip to the vet. I'm not sure how long it's going to take. If I get back with enough time I'll try and put one together but I'm a bit unfocused for this.

Ack. they make me put at least 500 characters in.

Guess its a good time to give people a little explanation on some of the stuff that happened before.

Morgan - He likes his retirement but is dealing with the fact that since he's soul bonded to Alara he's effectivly going to live as long as her tree does - not immortal but incredibly long lived. Because of this he is trying to keep from forming too many attachments, but still keeps up with some of his old adventuring friends.

King of Nilavs - I haven't given him a name yet (I really suck at names) but he traveled with Morgan when he was Magnus's age, guarded by John Stormleaf who was a Shadow at the time.

John Stormleaf - Former Shadow, nicknamed the Endless Blade for his talent at chain binding equipment, he can store equipment bound items within equipment bindings. He also can remote activate them, unlike most binders who have to touch the bindings. In effect he could throw a knife and have it multiply mid air and then pull it back into the binding. He was gravely wounded during the Storm of Swarm and took years to recover but he never quite reached the same physical capacity as before, since equipment binders are more reliant on their personal skill he retired.

Marcus Calburnus - You just met him, but he is a master summoner with a talent that makes it where he can bind multiple creatures to a single summoning stone, it also makes it where the summons do not have the same agressive tendancies towards each other. This allows him to summon multiple creatures at once and is part of the reason Morgan called him a one man legion. The other part was that he likes using humanoid creatures he can arm with equipment.

If there is anyone else you want to know about just let me know.
