The New Sumata(All Sumata Please!)

[Trucido Damnedblood]

"Ah. I told you this already, we are not prepared." He said, "Honestly, if we attack now, we are not prepared. My gods, I have been waiting for over 600 years for this to happen. You can wait for a little more."

[Seigmand Dezmar]

"Milord, forgive my insolence but it becomes hard to understand exactly what has taken so long. Had this issue been dealt with before the Heroes were sent here then we would not have war on our hands. Despite those... abominations you've sent to King Xisa, Milicia and her army will break through. And who do you think they'll attack next?" Seigmand slammed his hands on the table forcefully. "ME! My kingdom will be next, and without being able to attack ahead of time, we will fall!"

Okay Seigmand, pull it back a little. Try and get what you came here for. He coached himself in his mind, playing his part as best he could. He moved off the table, acting as if he was restraining himself. "So perhaps you can enlighten us all Trucido, what exactly it is that's stopping us from proceeding with your 600 year old plan."

[Trucido Damnedblood]

"Oh?" He asked as he looked over at him, "So, you are nervous about your kingdom? Ok, I can give you that, but my plan stays with me. You want to know why? You are panicking about your kingdom, and you may act irrational if Milicia attacks your kingdom, and surrender my plans for your kingdom."

[Seigmand Dezmar]

"Irrational? You'd call me irrational? I would think my years of loyal service and advice would have led you to a better opinion of me sir." Seigmand scowled. "You want to talk irrational? How about letting this random nobody on our group last minute? What if he's been planted by the Heroes?" His finger thrust out towards Taggert. The boy was a surprise, but nothing he couldn't work with. After all, if Trucido wasn't going to at least toss him a bone, the least he could do was whip everyone into a suspicious frenzy.

"Xisa!" He turned to face the iron clad warrior king. "Surely as a man who's already had his borders trampled and his people slain by others who wish to take everything from him; surely you agree with me?"

[scarth]

"Oh hoo hoo! I love it when we get a good show." Scarth took a large sip of his milk as he sent out a long tendril to nudge Celtic out of his slumber. "Hey come on sleepy, you're missing the best part." Scarth kicked his feet up and laid back as he watched Seigmand get riled up. He didn't know why, but there was something fun about seeing the otherwise calm king grow so irritated.

[Xïza Tyrmond]

"I personally don't care." He said, "It is Trucido's call. Why do you worry? You can manipulate the ground, you can make her army fall into the ground on which they stand on."

[King Celtik B. Donnerlupo]

"What?" He said as he woke up. "Ugh, what are we fighting about now?" He was annoyed that he had to be awaken from his nap for a fight.

[alexanderthegreat]

"Whoa, I'm sorry I'm so late, Seigmand bro!"

A late chair raised and in it sat Alexander Frexton, blond and confused. He glanced around at everyone quickly, taking random note of what they were arguing about. Something about Seigmand being irrational and Trucido or...someone not knowing what he was doing. He raised his eyebrow as his eye caught the glimpse of a new face, that of which belonging to Taggert.

"Huh..." Alexander stared at the man before he finally raised his hand in the middle of the discussion, "two questions, guys: first, what's this meeting about and two, who's the geek?"

[The Gravelord Requiem]

Taggert sat quietly through Seigmand's outburst, his mind pondering other matter more important to him then the pointless conversation before him. Becoming slightly annoyed at Seigmand's accusations towards him, his mind rattled with retorts, but he saw no reason to involve himself in the unimportant affairs and went back to thinking of some experiments that he would like to run. Tagget still had to talk to Trucido about procuring a spot in Abyssus to perform said tests, but that was something he could take care of at a more appropriate time, most likely after they were finished with the gathering.

Seeing another chair rise, Taggert's attention shifted out of curiosity to catch a glimpse of a young man who quickly made his presence know with his rather large mouth. Taggert simply chuckled at the boys vague attempt at mockery and leaned forward on the table, his attention still focused on Alex.

"Why I didn't think this group would have enough notoriety to warrant it's own Jester. He sounds and looks the part, but I'm unsure of his ability to really entertain. What's say you do a little jig for us Jester? This little congregation could use a bit a show, not to say that we don't already have one going on..." Taggert mumbled snidely as his glance surreptitiously panned to Seigmand.

[Zelos Shinigami-Mezmillion]

"You are a necromancer."

Zelos' voice called out as his chair rose, regarding Taggert with a slight interest. "Necromancy is commonly found in Guasto, maybe Nerezza or old Vuoto, are you...Guastoian?"

[Seigmand Dezmar]

Seigmand scoffed at Xisa, and seeing the man would not prove useful he turned back to Trucido. His eyes locked with his, as he tried to understand just what has holding the man back. The rest of the Sumata's comments were white noise as he thought of only one more thing that might work.

"Very well Trucido milord. I had hoped that I would not have to force my hand so early, but it would appear that you still require proof of my loyalty. If you would please sir..." Seigmand gestured as he lowered his seat from the high table and moved away to the corner of the room, away from the prying ears of the other Sumata. Seigmand gulped heavily, his throat dry from the worry of what could happen.

[alexanderthegreat]

Alexander's eyebrow raised at Taggert and his quick, smartass remarks.

"Oh ho ho ho ho, you're a fun-ny guy," Alexander burst sarcastically at Taggert, sitting back in his chair as he shook his head at the other man, "except royals don't do commoner jigs, sorry. But I say you're well dressed enough for it, if you're wanting a dance so badly be my guest."

....wait, this guy wasn't a royal himself too, was he? That would be kind of bad if he was. How the heck was Alexander supposed to know when all of the royals were seemingly dropping like flies recently?


"...you're not a royal yourself, are you?"

[Trucido Damnedblood]

"What is it, Seigmand?" He asked as he walked over towards to him.

[Seigmand Dezmar]

"Forgive my duplicity, but I thought it best if I what I said were kept best between you and I." Seigmand whispered close to his leader's ear. "I understand you fear giving away information to any you do not trust. Even I have my doubts concerning a few of our allies myself. But sir, if I am to assist you as I have for so many years already, then surely you agree that I need to know what you are searching for."

[Trucido Damnedblood]

"...All I need to know is where the heroes' base is." He said, with a grin. "If I know that, then We can attack Nachtundtag on the opposite side, making quick work to the capital."
