Anorkin's Plan

The Black Void - Episode 3707

"Hmmm...the resemblence is astounding. If you are not Naomi, you might as well be her twin." Anorkin muses after I reveal my secret. "And not only your appearance, your magical aura is similar as well. Not identical, I can see that now. It's raw, untrained and unrefined, but it feels near enough that it will fool most on first glance. Only skilled mages will be able to spot the difference. It's almost as though you are Naomi, from another... plane of existance."

I shake my head in disbelief. Could he really know that? I try to change the subject. "Does that mean I can use magic?"

"I dare say you'd be a natural at it. But of course you'd need to be taught those skills. I could instruct you, but not without you doing something for me. Namely, I want you to pose as Naomi and use her, or should I say, your influence to advance my position."

"I don't understand!" I cry out in frustration. "Who is Naomi? How does everyone know about her? And where is she now?"

Anorkin looks surprised. "You really don't know? Heh, well, for now it's enough for you to know that she is looked at by many as one of the saviors of Doria. I'll tell you more after I've trained you some, but for now, I will tell your dragon riding friend that you must remian in my care for a few weeks."

"Hold on, I never agreed to this!" I say defensivley.

"On the other hand, I could just tell him you are a spy and imposter, and you'll be executed."

  1. Seems I have no choice. I'll have to go along with Anorkin's plans.
  2. I get up to leave the study. I don't want to get wrapped up in this. Hopefully, I can convince Tomas to side with me.
  3. I get up to leave the study, but the doors are firmly locked. "You're not going anywhere, my dear." Anorkin says darkly, and waves his hands as if casting a spell.
