# Reaper Pollenburn Campaign ????? Author: Nex_Canis Tags: M/M, Reaper #12 of Reaper **?????**   Balthazar Palmers sat at his desk pondering the six files that had been offered to him.   The six 'Branded' as it were...   A smile slowly crawled onto his face.   According to the research his dear old departed colleague, Isaac Reaper, undertook... to reach the Ultimate Seal - the Seal that binds all existence - there had to be a single Brand that would unlock 'five locks'...   ... and there were now six Branded...   It was perfect.   "Sir..." a figure asked from the shadows. "Shall we intercept the train and capture the Branded?"   Balthazar had considered that possibility... but after reading the reports of what happened the _last_ time the Branded were captured he decided he didn't want to bring them right to his doorstep... _yet_.   He needed more time to get everything prepared...   ... that and this could prove to be an opportunity for him...   "No..." he said, a smile crawling onto his face. "In fact... I leave them alone for now. Observe them but don't provoke them."   "But they're going to try and convince the other Elemental Lords to turn against you."   Balthazar grinned.   "Exactly."
