"Very well, General. If you claim full responsibility for your actions, you know the consequences. Because of your earlier failures, and your incompetent security that nearly had you killed, tomorrow in the afternoon you will be flogged in front of your entire army as stated by seventeenth decree of warfare. I expect to see you there, or you will receive a formal discharge from this army."

She felt better at this.. she expected something worse, though General Fong was not one to flog anyone lightly.. she was sure she would be broken and bloodied by the time he was finished.. though she was not sure if he would be the one delivering the sentence or if it would be one of her own soldiers... she almost hoped for one of her own. Most of them thought her frail and she doubted they would treat her too harshly especially after they witnessed her being eaten alive. That was pain.... the thought of it made her insides turn and fear beyond measure touch her mind. It was the most horrible death she could ever imagine.

”Yes, Sir.. I will be there.” Her eyes slid from him and closed as the warm itching feeling of the healers magic slid over her form. She would be there and she would take the beating with strength.. after all.. it couldn’t be worse then being eaten alive.. could it? The image of the blackened skull biting at her face as two others tore at her legs haunted her mind as she drifted off to sleep. Darkness clouded her mind.. then images of things moving in the darkness.. twisted rotten things coiling about her holding her close and then feasting on her flesh the pain was there but it was different.. it was brutal and horrible.. but it was numbed.. numbed enough she could watch as they ripped out her intestines and devoured it. All the while Nhil watched from the darkness his pale skin glowing in the sea of black writhing flesh. A smug smile on his lips.. the same smile he always wore when she was failing at something.. like he knew something she didn't.. he always was an ignorant fool she normaly wanted to laugh back in his face.. but this time.. he knew.. he knew more then her as she begged for him to call them off.

Fear was not something that came easy, but this dream.. this nightmare made her entire body tremble. She understood Sho’s hatred of the undead, his fear of them.. she understood his distain.. in truth.. she was terrified of them now as well. Her attendant slid her hands about Diloxi’s shoulders gently.

“Mistress.. Mistress it is time to wake.”

Diloxi sat up in her cot and screamed in terror.. her form drenched in sweat as she pulled the blankets to her breasts gasping. Her eyes darted around as Mia, her attendant, slid a hand against her back. Diloxi snarled and pushed her hand away, ”Don’t touch me!” she hissed the woman stepped back a bit startled then looked at General Ebon with wide red eyes.

“Mistress.. you are safe.. it was only a dream.”
She was right.. it was only a dream.. just a dream.. and it would never happen again.. Diloxi would never again risk dying that way.. she would kill herself long before she was eaten again.

”Yes.. your right sorry Mia.. give me a moment.” she gasped her eyes turning up to her servant and forcing a smile. The attendant bowed and walked out of her now smaller tent as gentle rays of sun filtered through the bottom edges of her colourful pavilion.
