This loose cabal has no binding >> ideology other than the opportunity and desire to acquire power in >> the post-war chaos. Dangerous but not as malignant as feared. The >> decision is made to continue to try and infiltrate and subvert this >> collection of malcontents. How useful this will prove to in the long >> run is unclear but they would provide clear inroads into the >> discontent within adjoining kingdoms. Still it will prove good >> training and useful basis for the beginning of Villard's spy >> network. Villard continues to work with his people, military, and >> magic to monitor and | subvert some of the enemies.
