Plans for Crowind

Fred, Alice, Taria, Marcus, Sara, Daenerys and Farsel were gathered round. Farsel was wearing black robes. Fred had decided that as a true companion, she shouldn't be **** to go naked anymore. They were discussing how they'd conquer Empress Sorvile Nogardnep's dark elf kingdom, Crowind.

"Okay, so that dark elf kingdom where Sorvile lives is located in a different continent altogether" said Fred, "what are these contents called?"

"We don't really have names for them" said Alice, "we just call them things like human kingdoms, elf kingdoms, orc nations"

"Okay, the point is that we're gonna need a considerably ****. We'll need to send amazons and zombies and machines" said Fred, "What about them thralls?"

"The thing is that in order to manage kingdoms while you're away, some of us will need to stay behind" said Marcus, "and thralls lose their healing ability and I lose control over them if they move too far away"

"I'm not" said Farsel, "this is personal between me and mother"

"As an Amazon, it makes sense for me to remain in Amazonia" said Taria.

"I should stay here" said Marcus, "I've forty years experience running Astolfo"

"What makes us think you won't attack Amazonia again?" asked Sara.

That was a point. Fred didn't want to leave Daenerys behind. As a dragon, even an untrained one, she was a formidable ****. He also didn't like Taria behind given her skills in combat and her ability to be an instant expert with any weapon but her reasoning made sense.

"Someone else should stay in case Marcus tries anything" he said.

This was a difficult decision. Marcus was uncomfortable around women. In fact he had a pretty messed up view of them. When he first turned into a woman, Marcus thought were all gonna make him their plaything.

He decided that Alice should stay with Marcus. She was the most compassionate of them. He considered asking Taria to stay with Marcus as both of them were abused by family members but decided against it for two reasons.

1, Marcus would certainly view a woman with a similar build to Isabel as threat to his wellbeing. 2, Alice might try to end slavery in Amazonia.

"What about the zombies?" he asked.

"The range that I can control them is further than thralls, but another continent is still too far away" said Marcus.

"What about the automatons?"

"Yes, I can provide you with a fleet of them"

Marcus provided Fred, Daenerys and Farsel with a ship. Fred had taken some necromancy and demonology books to learn magic. He also had Farsel teach him the fireball and chains of darkness spells.

Fred also brought several Amazons, automaton and zombies with him. The necromancy books would teach Fred how to control the zombies. The demonology would also explain more about his incubus form.
