Charmay inhales sharply and snaps her fingers twice: Keep up, little man. You perform first because you must be seen by her. That buys you access to the castle, and keeps her attention away from you. The second performance, the one that matters, is mine. I will be on the stage when the curtain truly falls. You and your companions will be doing precisely what I have already told you: presenting the twins, preventing her escape, subduing her minions.
As for her precious prisoner... Endelyn does not dirty her own hands unless the world is ending. If she sensed the wards were failing, she would order her darklings to retrieve the girl long before she rushed to do it herself. She hoards her energy for theatrics, not chores.
Charmay folds her arms and eyes Greginald down the bridge of her nose. But by all means, you, who have been here for all of five minutes, may share with me the full brilliance of this ‘simpler plan’ you’ve suddenly conceived. Enlighten me with your wisdom.

"release the prisoner, kill the darklings and wait for her to figure out the world is ending... If she comes running then the twins will already be assembled and we just take her down. It's a big if, but it is only one." Greg sneers
