Day 4
As the Council met for the fourth time, a captain of the guard awaited them with an unfortunate story.
As he was on his night watch, the orc observed the Dragon Meneltarmacil exit his lair and sneak in the direction of another Councilor's chamber (which particular one, the guard could not recall). After Meneltarmacil had spied on this person and muttered; "So, he is no traitor," two dark forms had appeared suddenly, silently behind him and skewered him with long, dripping blades, and then they carried the body back to his cave.
And so the remains were discovered. Two heavy, iron blades doused with venom were thrust through body, and the dragon's secrets were lost.
