“Once we find them, there is no reason for you to stay. I’ll call for reinforcements, and the Organization will deal with the Horde.” Bytra said.

“If Zor is still alive, we’ll use the excuse her and I have prepared for occasions like this. We’ll say that our bond is so deep that it allowed me to track Zor and that her pain was so intense that it drove me temporarily insane.”

“What if it’s too late?” Solus asked, moved that Zoreth and Bytra had prepared contingency plans just to protect her secrets.

“I’ll use that same excuse.” Bytra lowered her gaze, holding back her tears. “No one will dare contradict me or question my story in respect for my loss. They’d get nothing from it but the resentment of their best Forgemaster.”

“Let’s move out. We kept Zor waiting long enough.” Lith stood up and used the Warp Mirror of the tower to assemble the adult members of his family.

He quickly explained the situation to them via a mind link.

“If Zogar calls, Bytra has not come here, and you haven’t seen her since her last visit.” Lith said. “I hate asking you to lie to your sister, Kami, but there’s no other choice.”
