You two have failed me. I gave you a simple task and the means to fulfill it.
Amnischnell stood over Sapon and Lapas, both of whom knelt before him but dared not to look up. All three were in their human form dressed in their armor except Amnischnell.
They knew returning with a report of failure would not be what their master wanted to hear. They could only hope for another chance otherwise death would be all they received.
The camp was quiet with almost no sounds. The licking of flames from candles in the tent the three demons stood was at the moment the only sound that could be heard. Amnischnell finally broke the silence after several moments.
