Gnawdwell's personal quarters were quite lavish by Skaven standards, with cushions, trophies, and other expensive things. A hole in the wall, protected by a translucent, green energy shield (powered by Warpstone of course) protected a large quantity of Warpstone, pure and untreated. A shadow dropped behind Gnawdwell as he turned off the console he was watching. Turning, he watched the Eshin Assassin approach. "Deathmaster. What can Gnawdwell do for you, as if I do not know." Deathmaster Snikch, the Chief Assassin of Clan Eshin and second only to its leader, replied in a deep, gravelly voice, "You know what I want, Gnawdwell. Where is it?" Gnawdwell turned to the shield, tapping a few keys on the keypad below it, deactivating the shield. The Warlord grabbed several pawfuls of Warpstone and handed them to Snikch, who looked over them with interest. Putting them into his cloak, Snikch said, "I think you will be happy to know Clan Liskit is being picked apart as we speak by the others." "Gnawdwell did not expect anything less." Gnawdwell replied. "By the way, Deathmaster, Gnawdwell has one more job for your master to accept." He whispered something in the Eshin adept's ear. Snikch nodded and walked off, heading out of Gnawdwell's quarters. Gnawdwell himself wondered how Snikch had gotten in his heavily guarded den, but did not ask. A curious Skaven was a short-lived Skaven, after all...
