The meeting seems to go well enough, but Aaron and the others know that it's pretty much "pro forma". The Baron doesn't wish to be blunt and say it, but it appears that he's wavering against aiding, despite everything that Aaron has said and shown. Aaron, finallly tired of this fan dance, confronts the baron over tea and crumpets in private (with the others in attendence). "You do not plan on aiding us?" he says in a soft voice, already seeing it in the baron's uncomfortable face. "Prince," he says softly, staring down at his tea, "I have heard many rather fantasic....hard to believe things today and of recent....but I do know that even though the leader of the New Amazons is alive and well. Even though through Rebecca I see that Samuel is an even larger crumb than I had believed..... You must rather admit that the New Amazons have become rather....few in numbers of recent, odd battle coming all of a sudden or no." His sources had told him of the results of that one battle between King Hengst troops and Illura's forces. Whilst Illura's side had come through, it was just a mere shadow of it's former self...hardly something to throw his support behind and have any hope of prospering. Indeed, to do so would.... That's when it happens! A flash of light and a naked figure lands in a heap before them all.....and from that form a wave seems to spread out and envelope the entire castle....and a big chunk of the surrounding lands as well!!
