Sending a sign

Sadarth had chosen a good vantage point to teleport herself to. She could see the proud nobility taking to the streets with their soldiers, claiming to be hunting for the evil sorceress Sadarth. Sadarth, of course, knew better than that. They wanted to show the people of Sunley that they weren't going to leave. Sadarth also knew that they were wrong. She made herself invisible and hurried to the castle overlooking the city. The lord of the city, whose name meant absolutely nothing at all to her, was also gathering his troops for a show of **** in the city. The gates were closed for the time being, with watchers all along the walls, but to Sadarth, conquering them was no harder than levitating over them. Invisibly, of course.

Soaring over the castle walls, she could not help but strongly feel her nudity. Even invisible, it shook her in many ways she did not want to admit. Mentally, she tramped down the fear of being seen naked. She was invisible, she had nothing to be ashamed of and she could kill anyone who saw her. But... she could not help but feel a bit excited by all the eyes almost but not quite on her. Sadarth bit her lip.

I can summon exotic pleasures from planes no other mortal has ever visited. The darkest of desires are within arm's reach. What is it about this that makes me feel so...

Sadarth dispelled the thought. She could worry about this later. She placed herself on the balcony of the lord's chamber and began to listen, giving herself a moment to recuperate lost mana. The voice she heard giving commands was not at all what she expected.

"I want these louts to know that we won't bend to the will of any witch. They're under the protection of the High King, and me as their countess!"

A woman. Interesting. That would probably help.

Sadarth entered the room with a single sudden spell, putting all of the occupants to sleep. The countess was being armed by a pair of squires, it seemed, while she was giving orders to one of her sergeants. All four of them would stay asleep as long as need be. The countess was left only half-dressed, leaving Sadarth with only half the work to undress her. The naked countess had large breasts and wide hips. Sadarth sneered at the barbarically proportioned woman. Looking around, Sadarth could not help to notice the woman's breastplate. True to its name, the breastplate closely matched the shape of its owner, being detailed down to her musculature and nipples. Whomever said nipples on a breastplate were useless would probably feel vindicated.

Sadarth grabbed the countess and teleported the pair of them to the town square, immediately covering both of them with a black cloud. Sadarth couldn't be seen naked like this, not yet. Outside the cloud, she could hear a commotion. She was so close to being seen. It excited and tormented her without end.

Work, she thought. And so she did. Like any city, had a decent pillory and some other equipment for holding down prisoners. Sadarth found a good tall pole with a rope attached to the top. With the rope, Sadarth tied the countess' hands behind her back. Asleep, her barbarically proportioned breasts swayed freely.

Doubtless, some brave knight would come and attempt to liberate the countess and win her love, so Sadarth set another spell in the area around the countess. Anyone trying to her approach her would become increasing sluggish and slow, until they could not move at all.

Satisfied with her handiwork, Sadarth teleported herself out to her hiding place once more. The black cloud cleared just as Sadarth left. She wondered what it would have been like if she stayed, if they had seen her. She shook her head. Focus.

She cast the aural amplification again. "There is a woman among you who would claim to rule this city, treating its free people like cattle! She would not renounce her false lordship, and so has been taken prisoner, in the name of the Free City of Sunley! Look upon her and laugh at she would who would demand submission from you free and good people! Find her the forum, in the same bonds she would keep you!"

Sadarth was a mastermind. A naked mastermind, but a mastermind all the same.
