A Captain's Advice

A Captain's Advice is the twenty-sixth chapter of Tales of Sheol'gotha:  Shadow of the Abaddon.

Synopsis
Having sent her children out to begin the arrangements, Sharess is alone and not expecting anyone when Lyn'sust shows up. She explains to Sharess that she spoke with Valon and found out that Kaltrin is helping the Shadow by providing it with dead flesh. Sharess gives Lyn'sust the names Donovan gave her about the brothers - Waryn and Nadell, and is tasked with finding what she can about the Blight Council.

Sharess leaves and heads out to the library, investigating for long hours before being interrupted by Donovan. He alerts her that he is aware that she is pregnant and suggests strongly that she spend her time in the throne room in order to best satisfy the pains she feels. She acknowledges this but does not acquiesce. She asks who Donovan truly supports and whether, since his task extends to protecting the royal family, he hopes Valon returns successful. He does not validate the question with a response.

He also warns her about having her conversations with Lyn'sust, but once again does not deign to inform Abaddon about it. She tells Donovan about Kaltrin and he takes it under consideration, opting to leave, and Sharess returns to her room.
