Talthus nods to Alasdair and slowly closes his eyes. He kneels and slowly starts reciting a few verses from an ancient text which he has on a small scroll in one of his pouches. He stands and holds alasdair's cloak on his arm as he strides out of the room with renewed strength. He strides to the top of the hill and stands tall looking at the dwarven army below. He removes his black tunic and chest armor, revealing a scarred body, as well as the gaping wound in his chest. He stands staring. . .suddenly he closes his eyes and a slow red aura starts to flow around him. The stones on his gauntlets begin to glow as well as his family crest on his shoulder. He continues to stare down at the 300 or so dwarves as they eat, drink, and entertain each other with stories and jokes. He has a calm but stern look on his face, but he does not move.
As he stands there, in his grey eyes there is a slight flicker of red every now and then. He looks back at alasdair and motions for him to rally the men and meet him on the hilltop
