Chapter 8: Illeelo

Illeelo led The Order of the Golden Eyed through the inner labyrinth of the castle of Jangar. As he led them he came to think of how he got in this mess.

It happened long ago, on a diplomatic mission with the Ajarhad. He was going with his brother, Kertith. The mission was mainly on aardvark trade, but the relations between the dragon and the Ajarhad were weakening, and there were rumors of another war between the elveniods and the dragons. They landed ashore in southern Murton after an accident with some human fishermen with anti dragon weapons.
"How were we supposed to know they had balistas? We have better tell Rubiellin that they are prepared for another war." he whispered to Kertith.
They wore vests to show that they were messengers, so they had no problems from the Ajarhad and other inhabitants of the Kingdom of Ice, though there was harsh stare, and some readied their bows. They soon arrived at the Palace of Ice. King Thorrad came out to meet them with his guards and translator. After their first negations they learned it was environmentalist who were hurting the aardvark trade. They spent the night there and Ileelo met the princess, Echo. She was about 12 years old then. That night Kertith snuck out the room. Illeelo heard him and began to follow. Eventually he found himself in the council chamber, with the council dead. He then rushed to the kings chamber but was to late to save him. He now knew what was going on.
"Cyrus, I summon you!" he shouted. A wisp of smoke floated in and it materialized into the demon himself..
"What do you want, Ileelo?" the demon whispered.
" If you prevent him from hurting the princess and any others I will be your."
"So be it."

Later war broke out, and Kertith was exiled, now knlon only as Scourge.

Illeelo turned into a room. It was filled with a cold liquid.
"Its mango juice!" exclaimed Talmera.

Dragon blood has many properties, one is that in certian dragon it explodes when mixed with mango juice.

Illeelo slit his own throat.
