In the dark and damp dungeon of the castle of Algmond, the prisoners captured by the forces of Connalk awaited their fate. One by one, the prisoners were taken away by the guards and taken to their new owners to serve as slaves. After two long days, it was Kendall's turn.
Hoping that his master would be merciful, Kendall muttered a prayer to the gods as the guards took him away. He went up the stairs of the dungeon into the courtyard where he met a tall woman, about 5' 7'', in an orange velvet dress with knots, spirals and intricate key patterns woven into the sleeves hanging from her wrist and along the neckline and hem of her dress with silver threads. She had fire-colored hair and grayish blue eyes. The guards said, "You have been assigned to her. She is your new mistress," and then left.
