Lucius stopped in his tracks as he heard his codename called out. When he turned around, Spider was standing next to one of the columns in the main hall. He strode up to Lucius with all the swagger in the world. Behind him were some of his men and another two of the King's Shadow commanders.

"I hear you are getting an extended mission. Years long even. I don't think you deserve it."
"That's too bad."
He attempted to turn and leave, but a hand on his shoulder stopped him. At the same time, the two other commanders with Spider stepped into his path. It seemed none of them wanted out of this without getting something from the interaction. He wasn't an idiot. It was clear what they were aiming for.
