"Assassins." Viren answered

" I see" Harrow says Calmly, while setting Pip down and feeding him a treat

"A scout on patrol discovered them just before dawn" viren says

"Well, don't look so grim. We've fought off plenty of assassins. Haven't we, Pip?" Harrow says while stroking the bird

"It's different this time. We believe they're Moonshadow Elves." Viren states, making Harrow frown "Moonshadow Elves? Then how did the scout escape?" He asked

"I don't know. It was muddy, wet, dark... Somehow he got very lucky." Viren says

"The Crown Guard won't be enough to hold them off." Harrow muttered feeding pips "Send for General Amaya and the Standing Battalion." He ordered

"The Breach is too far. They'll never make it back in time" Viren claimed

"What's tonight's moon?" Harrow asked

"Full." Viren answered, harrow chuckled at that " of course it is"

"With the Moonshadow Elves at the height of their power, no defense will stand against them." Viren states

"Then we won't defend." Harrow says Determined "We will attack. We must find them today, in the light of the sun, and stop them before it's too late."

Pips chirps which seems to be in agreement

Meanwhile

Rayla jumps over the forest's terrain and uncovers her hood once she stops. She pulls out her blades and sighs, when she notices a red berry bush and gets lost in thought.

At the camp of the Moonshadow Assassins, where Runaan meditates on a rock. Rayla walks past him, with her blades drenched in the berry juice, which appears as blood.

"Well done, Rayla." He says making her stop

" Yeah. I used both of them." She says nervously " I used both of them" she says while shrugging

"I can see that." He says then tosses her a piece of cloth, which she uses to clean her blade of the fake blood,
She walks past the other elves while trying to fake a smile

Back in katolis

The baker barius, sniffs the freshly baked, then lifts a sheet of jelly tarts out of the oven.

Ezran and Bait crawl into the bakery through an open space. Ezran pushes the vent bars aside.

Bait let let's out a croak " Bait, shh." Ezran sneaks into the room and watches Barius walk away.

He rushes over to the fresh jelly tart sheets and hovers his hand about to grab a piece, before flinching as he heard "Prince Ezran!" And tuned to be the baker, who chuckled menacingly "I caught you!"

"I was just admiring them" Ezran said

"Oh." The baker Crosses arms "With your hands?" He says sarcastically

"Yeah. They look amazing." Ezran says looking at them, then the baker "Well, they are amazing, and they're not for you! Or your little monster, Bait" he says irritated

From behind him, Bait snatches a jelly tart with his tongue, making the baker turn

"D-Did you just..." he stammered "You can tell by his eyes he's innocent" Ezra says while Bait bats his eyelashes innocently while croaking.

Ezran takes a jelly tart while Barius focuses on Bait and is caught when Barius turns back around "Are you kidding me? I'm standing right here!" He exclaimed angry
