Eric paused, glancing back over his shoulder.
"That much, hmm? There must be something you aren't telling us. But that's fine. I love a challenge."
He chuckled drolly...

Qa'Meret looked at Eric and thought about he hopes not to regret letting him train Kyo, he then looked back at the Count and Countess. - "Any extra details you could provide us could be of extreme help. But I cannot avoid asking: Why are we neded for this taks, instead of your powerful army?"

He diffidently didn't think that duke, earl, or whatever he was was fit to be on the throne where he was. Seeing everyone as beneath him, showing no real patience, and other things. Luckily for him I want to see this world, not rule it. He thought to himself as he continued walking. He shrugged, I guess they'll be his paid assassins or some other such thing. Guess I'll be alone again. I do have the feeling I've traveled alone before, though not always.

He stopped once he was near the gate that lead out of the city, not caring if anyone heard him or not. "Ok Akatosh, if that is your name. I don't have any preference where to go to next. Do you have any suggestions or preferences?" He asked while relaxing mentally.

He listened to what he heard, nodding, "Fort of bandits, yes I agree they need to be eliminated. Or they'll continue to prey on people." He set off in the direction of where he had been told where the fort was. When he got to the forest he looked at the branches to bad they are the wrong type. I could try swinging & jumping from branch to branch and travel faster that way. No one would expect that. He thought to himself and continued along the way to the fort at a jog speed he thought he could sustain for a long time.

because this is not something for my army to handle. it is a job fit for mercenaries. i am willing to pay a very princely sum for this job..
-
well your hospitality leaves a lot to be desired your highness' Dae replied. ' isnt it custom to welcome guests with kindness and mercy, or at least a smile..?

Chiletrek · **Reply #1824 on:** October 13, 2013, 04:28:17 PM

Kyo looked back at Walker and how he left the hall. - "I hope he'll be fine." - he said with a dissapointed voice due to his departure.

Qa'Meret looked back at the kid and smiled. - "Don't worry, I am sure he can take care for himself, and it is very likely that our group will join him soon in the action." - the Khajiit then looked at Dae. - "You should not make a great deal for the lack of hospitality because the Count and Countess don't see us as more than just mercenaries. But if we are successfull, I am sure things could change, once they get to know us for who we really are."

Taloc nodded, and suddenly swung his giant hammer back into his grip, ready for use. His hideous wide grin actually softened a little, looking like an actual normal smile. Somehow, however, this only made the smile look... sadistic. "I'll go ahead to get a handle on what we'll be encountering. Where is this fort, and what surrounds it?"

Belmont2500 · **Reply #1826 on:** October 13, 2013, 08:57:11 PM

"You best watch your tongue, Khajiit. If I were in charge, your kind would cease to exist." The Countess said before ordering the guards to her side. "Take is ungrateful walking rug to the dungeons and make sure he rots, also take the female too." She explained.

"Now, is this really necessary?" John chided.

"Very." The countess growled.

Ashnii didnt do anything' Sed Nues protested 'Ok Dae's a lout, but Ashnii's a good girl..
Hey1 You cant do that Nicula said as she stepped forward. ' ok jae insulted you, fine, but ashnii didnt do anything!
- let me make this very clear girl' ThE Count said coldly ' both of them go to the dungeon. and you, all of you, must go on my quest that i have given you. if you refuse, well you can join these two in the dungeon.'
dar maa and dRyu esa were shocked at the treatment of thier companions. but given the circumstances all they could was cooperate.
_
get going' the Count said coldly.. if you return successful, you will be paid, if not well those two will suffer and die. its really up to you now go' he repeated.
the guards moved in to make the Count's point..
best get going then' Nicula said ticked that Ashnii was being thrown in prison with Dae.

Belmont2500 · **Reply #1828 on:** October 13, 2013, 09:14:40 PM

"Khajiit are never good." The countess muttered

"You're wrong!"

Ashnii said nothing as she was put in chains and led away to the dungeons along with Dae.

StarfallRaptor · **Reply #1829 on:** October 13, 2013, 09:15:41 PM

Eric turned back, glaring at the count and countess.
"Oh, we'll return. And if you have laid a finger on the female...I'll make sure you regret it."
He growled...

Nick22 · **Reply #1830 on:** October 13, 2013, 09:19:40 PM

we'll get you out Asjhnii' Dar Maa called to her as the rest of the group was shown the door.' Come on Dar' Dru Essa said, hwer moth in a line. ' sed nues was wiping away tears, as they headed outr towards the gates of the city. nicula was gripped on the handle of her sword hard.
the count took a seat on his throne..

Chiletrek · **Reply #1831 on:** October 13, 2013, 09:36:43 PM

Qa'Meret and Kyo couldn't believe what was happening, the kid was baring his teeth in anger but he was stopped by Qa'Meret - "It is better to be going now and do this task as quickly as possible, any strategy must be planned on our way there, but we cannot lose any time." - the Khajiit was in relief the Count and countess didn't take him aswell, but he need to swallow his mood to fight these governors and to go with the group to the fort.

Taloc had been so eager and so excited to prepare for battle that he ran out of the palace before the prisoners had been taken. His hammer was put back in its sling so it wouldn't catch on any doors, and he took the back alley's through the city to avoid the crowds. Most would have been aghast to see such a massive creature running at such a frightening speed anyway. He passed several guards who immediately pointed their weapons at him as he approached, only to relax again as he ran past.
He was out of the city gates in only a few minutes, and his pace never stopped. Malacath was surely watching him-- he would be extremely displeased with him if he gave anything less than his top performance on this scouting mission. Deer and Moose looked up at the sound of crashing footsteps and froze as stiff as a board as he ran past, the whites of their eyes blazing with shock and fear. He paid them no mind-- he didn't have to worry about spooking the wildlife quite yet.
When he finally spotted the great towering spires of a castle in the distance, he stopped. The bandit's fortress had conical spires that were narrow and tapered to a point, and leaned against the rockface of a sandstone mountain like spears leaning against a soldier's shoulder. From this distance, he saw the spouting stream of waterfall off to the castle's left, dribbling down into a stream that swerved out of the limits of his vision. He smiled, and began to walk quietly to a closer position to the fort.

Eric walked out of the palace, slamming his magical arm into a wall in fury.
"Those scum! They had best thank what gods there are that we have to maintain an illusion of normalcy, or I would have wrung their necks then and there."
He growled, replaced eye glowing bright red under his hood. Sima Shi nodded, running a hand through his hair.
"I do believe that my father needs to know about those two louts. Until now, we had no reason to pursue them, nor to actively attempt to oust them from power, but now, having seen what they are like, I do believe that...a change in leadership may be in order."
He said, voice shaking with barely-contained rage...

"Even if my face won't show it, I am as angered as you are, even if I know you people for a short time only..." - Qa'meret said. - "... but we do need to hurry and don't allow them to have time for anything. We need to go to that fort now and make a strategy as we go, then to confirm any course of action with the info Taloc will manage to get."

"I am with Sima Shi, I do hope the Count and Countess are removed from power, they cannot play with the people they are meant to guide into prosperity." - Kyo said visible angered, but he then sighed as he had no other choice.

Nick22 · **Reply #1835 on:** October 13, 2013, 10:16:35 PM

we need to clear this fort of bandits ' Dru Essa said' as quickly as possible
then go back and demand ashniis release..dae.. well well being in prison would be a worldchanger for him, perhaps he'll give a darn after it.'
- i know we are all angry, but first things first' sed nues said ' someone will have to watch over feli.. the poor girl shouldnt be left alone..
- i guess i'l;l do it dru essa said raising her claw.

Chiletrek · **Reply #1836 on:** October 13, 2013, 10:25:16 PM

"Dru Essa, please take care of Kyo aswell." - Qa'Meret asked Dru Essa.

Kyo then protested. - "I do want to go too, the more we are, the faster we can..." - he then stopped as Qa'Meret took a minute to knelt in front of the kid.

"Kyo, if you were some years older I would allow you to go, but I will not risk you on this mission, specially since we had no time for proper planning. Please comply when I say you should stay with Dru Essa."

The kid closed his fists in anger but he did comply as he walked closer to Dru Essa. Qa'Meret sighed as he stood up again.

Nick22 · **Reply #1837 on:** October 13, 2013, 10:44:47 PM

come on ' Dru essa said to kyo' and sed nues gave her some gold ' go get some food for the three of you.' Dru essa nodded as dar maa approached her' dru essa smiled at her then dar maa gave her a big hug' we'll be back for you guys' she promised. dru essa nuzzled her, and then nicula gave her a hug next. '

"As long as the count and countess keep their end of the bargain. This will hardly be a bother." John muttered as he unsheathed his sword.

----------------------------------------------------------

"Let go, I'm innocent!" Ashnii yelled as she was forced into a cell.

"I doubt it your kind always finds trouble." The guard replied.

Nick22 · **Reply #1839 on:** October 13, 2013, 11:00:22 PM

Dae was tossed into a nearby cell. there was not much in the cell just some straw in the corner and a small table, with a cracked plate ad a musty cup on it,. ' great i'm in prison ' he muttered. ' dnt get too comfortable in here khajit.. we're going to 'stretch' you out soon enough..the guard said with a cold voice.
