Crow listened closely as Akira spoke. The plan would require flawless execution, it was by all means a suicide mission. If Akira were found out, he would be all alone in the heart of enemy territory. One of the elders rose up in anger,
Bobby! You can not seriously be entertaining this idea? Giving thee amulet to a complete stranger and letting him hand it over to Cassander? That will be dee end of us all Maels…
“Maelstrom trusts my judgment, perhaps it is time you do dee same.”
The up and coming Cajun then turned to Akira,
“You understand, what dis means. If you are discovered, if he suspects anything, we are all dead.”
Slowly he removed the amulet from around his neck and handed it to Akira.
“There is an old Arcadian uniform in dat bag dhere. Put it on and return to the city. Wit any luck Cassander will think you are one of dee survivors of his attack on us. Give him dee amulet. Watch where he put it, he will not separate it from dee other four. You must find a way to get dee amulets, all of them.”
And with that, Crow shook Akira’s hand and bowed. “Good luck brave warrior. Are fait be in your hands now.”
