Jiva continued through the busy centre of Cerenis, its people oblivious to what had transpired. He kind of felt sorry for the poor person who would find the dead magic user but he couldn’t really worry about that now. His current job asked for the deaths of three mages and so far he had killed two, one remained, another woman, though ‘girl’ was probably more correct. Unlike the previous two mages he had killed who he had known very little about, this third he knew very well. She was his mother’s student and a complete bitch. A red headed earth mage and general magic user named Dalisme. Jiva was looking forward to this hunt not just because he knew Dalisme would be a challenge but because he hated her.
He only had a small lead as to where Dalisme was but he was determined to find her and she couldn’t hide from him. However he was at the advantage in that he was pretty certain that Dalisme didn’t know someone wanted her dead.
His next destination was up through the Sirantil Valleys to Connloath and to its capital. Even though Dalisme was a magic user he would not put it past her to enter Connloath, she was extremely arrogant and wouldn’t expect to get caught.
“She doesn’t just have the Mordeai to worry about though,� Jiva thought, smiling evilly.
