     Slowly, both women rise. “I feel.. different,” Coral says and Jasmine nods in agreement.

     “You are different. You are faster. Stronger. Your instincts are sharper. You will be able to sense when vampires and other demons are near. You will learn the combat arts with amazing speed. You will heal quickly -- overnight, in most cases. You may have precognitive dreams.”  The Keyholder smiles and on cue, Michael enters.

     “Michael, please take Jasmine and Coral to their quarters. They don’t feel like it now but they need to rest for the remainder of the night and eat well and rest all of tomorrow.”
     “At once, my Lady.”
    Penthesilea watched as the three of them left. Then she cleared her workroom of stray energies and sought her own bed. Creating DemonSlayers was more exhausting than becoming one although Penthesilea had always been careful not to let anyone know that. Just before she fell asleep, Penthesilea thought of her Lord Marshall and wished him a good night and “be safe.”

     The next morning finds Penthesilea in her study. A very early morning message from the Lord Marshall told her to expect his return that day. That was not a problem since she normally let new DemonSlayers rest for the day after their Gifting before the training regeimen began. She had found on the whole, things worked out better that way.  SecondMeal was being served in the Dining Hall when a page came into  the room and told her that the Lord Marshall had just Gated into the Castle Courtyard.

*Strolls in set down his weapon and prepares to brief the Keyholder*
     The opposition has been eliminated. The threat is over. On a side not the prisoned people of that nation have been freed and have plans to start new. I need a break if you need me I will be at the Night Club.

     “Eat, drink, unwind. We can talk later.” With a gesture, she sends him to his Night Club according to his wishes.  She longs to go along and unwind herself but she feels that her presence might be unwelcome. She doesn’t really know why she feels that way but she does. So she remains at the Castle dealing with the aftermath of Kodiak’s victory until the Night Club’s magickal teleportation system deposits Kodiak back into her presence.

     I have found out who is behind the attack and all threat has been eliminated. As for recalling this information I have decided to keep it to myself for now as to not attract an uprising. Now the those entities are powerless due to fall of their followers I am afraid to mention such creatures again could give them the power they need to rerise.

     They were after you. If they took down the keyholder they figured the castle would fall. What attacked you was supernatural. With no one to give allegiance to these entities they shall fall. For precautionary measures I would do a protection for the castle. With no mortals left they wouldn't be able to attack the castle.

     “Is there any chance that some escaped? Some of the Castle’s inhabitants are worried,” Penthesilea said.

All things should be safe. You can rest comfortably for now.

     “Between the Castle's own awareness, the Artificial Intelligence I've installed and my ancestral spirits that I've summoned to guard the Castle, we are well protected. Still, it would not hurt to review the protections in case something was overlooked. The attempt on my life occurred during battle -- when I was away from the Castle and completely off of my lands.” She rises from her chair. “If you are able now, we will go to my workroom.  We can review the Castle’s protections most effectively from there.” Kodiak nodded and they went up to the workroom. They spent what remained of the night there going over the various spells protecting the Castle. Kodiak wasn’t much of a mage himself but he had ferreted out the weaknesses in more magickal defense systems than he could easily remember and he did find a few soft spots that Penthesilea shored up.  As the sun came up, Kodiak retired to his quarters to sleep. Penthesilea had no such option. She had an early morning engagement but she had no regrets. She had managed to spend the night with Kodiak without interruption.

     The day has dawned bright and clear and the Keyholder has taken Sir Michael, Sir Alexander, Sir Justin, Sir Elendil, Dame Elena, Dame Thora, Dame Eldanna, Dame Ailinel and the new DemonSlayers on a ten mile run before breakfast!

     The runners enter the Dining Hall and the two new DemonSlayers promptly collapse at one of the tables. Penthesilea has food brought to them. At first, they feel to exhausted to eat but the delicious aroma of the food stirs their appetites and they eat.

     The lady knights -- Elena, Thora, Eldanna and Ailinel -- take Jasmine and Coral in hand. Hot baths to soothe the muscles and another light meal before hitting the training hall. First up: unarmed combat training!
