The Augury of Destiny
Tellerick examined the shell-shocked cadaver. Most of his rotten finery had been removed by Tamryn when they'd captured him. All that remained were grave-stained shirt and long pants tucked into loose boots.
"Marakel, do you remember me?"
The Lich looked up. "Yes. She... I am fate-bound with nothing more than a word."
Tellerick nodded. "Yes, yes she did." He sighed. "Never cross a Dragon."
"What happens now?"
"Well... William is the Augury of Destiny. Now we wait. The weapons of war will come for him. We must be ready to advise them and defend ourselves and Will."

Nice trio of drabbles. It's been a bit quiet around here of late.

Thanks Christopher 😊 This one rounds out this story. The gang is together. The End. I tried to not do other drabbles in the midst of this one. Which has taken place over years! It's been crazy, hasn't it? A Pandemic, an energy crisis, War in Europe of all places... It's bonkers. I need to spend a few hours copying the drabbles now to make sure I've got them all.

I didn't know that was the end. It was quite a journey. You've left room for a possible sequel.
