Attempted Murder of Kenna Rys

The Attempted Murder of Kenna Rys is an event in Azura's Invasion of The Five Kingdoms, in which Empress Azura's shadows, Lightning &amp; Thunder, attempt to assassinate Queen Kenna Rys. The assassination was planned as a way to force The Five Kingdoms to surrender and submit to the Iron Empire.

Prelude
Raydan is in Fydoria with Azura, undercover as a deserted, when he finds out about the plan to assassinate Kenna. She tells him "Kenna Rys will die at dusk." He then leaves for Stormholt to warn Kenna before Azura's assassin's can strike. When he arrives, Kenna catches him and asks what he is doing there. He tries to explain himself, but Kenna remains suspicious. She believes that he sneaked inside her room in order to kill her, but after some further deliberation, she relents.

Aftermath
Immediately after Raydan succeeds in persuading Kenna that he is still loyal to her, the Shadows attack. Kenna and Raydan successfully dispatch of Lightning & Thunder. Kenna is unharmed, and Raydan receives only nonfatal injuries. However, he is bedridden for some time after the fight. Raydan stays in Stormholt, his undercover mission over, and attempts to make amends with those he hurt with his apparent betrayal to get behind enemy lines.
