[Haspen]

The bearded knight frowned a bit.

"Hmph! You think I will believe that? If you must know, I'm Wodan Barbarossa, Lord of Castle Tumbrand, Captain of the Clemont-Fezzan Border Guard! And who YOU are? Give me your name at once! Otherwise, we will cut you down!"

[Sirus]

: "I have to question your methods, milord. Destroying a perfectly serviceable bridge just to stop one wagon? Say goodbye to any trade - and gold - passing through until it's replaced."

: "I am Gregorio, and I have the honor of being bodyguard of the merchant Lady Anna. We are on our way to Ugral, or were until you decided to wreck the border crossing."

[Haspen]

"If you are who you are and you speak the truth... why I wasn't informed? All the traffic and notification papers go through my hands personally. Surely you filled out Document 11 when your group visited the main border keep?"

"Sir, may I have a moment..." One of the soldiers approached the heavily armored knight, whispered something to him and gave him some papers.

[Sirus]

Gregor whispered to Anja, Alexander, and Dag.

: "Get ready to fight if it all goes wrong. I'm hoping it won't come to that, but..."

[Powder Miner]

Alexander grimaced, shutting his eyes closed tightly. He did not want to fight Meneleans. He... he couldn't fight Menelea. That would make him a true traitor, and what was the point of his existence then?
And so he started praying quietly under his breath, desperately.
:"Dragon of the Divine, do not force me to face a Menelean in combat, do not force me to fight those of my own loyalty, do not force me to fulfill the charges I have been falsely laid with into reality, do not force me to become a traitor, Divine Dragon, this is all I can beg of you, all I can hope for now."

[Haspen]

Barbarossa looked at the papers, then began to intensely stare at Gregor for a moment.

Then, he looked at the papers, at Gregor, at papers again and crumpled the sheets.

"It's Gregor von Hexham and his lackeys! Get them boys! Before the Berebians show up!" The footsoldiers began moving down the slopes as the horsemen swiftly moved past their fellow guards.

~~Player Turn 1~~

"I will be right behind you, guys."

"Um, if you don't mind, I will stick close to my wagon..."

Alexander moved a small amount to let his allies get behind him (move to 11, 8), but he had never taken out his lance in the first place, both hands instead holding his shield. (Unequip lance) He would not allow his friends to be harmed though- he would gladly take the shots for them. He would stall conflict for as long as he could. (Activate Guard on all possible enemy attacks this turn.) Meanwhile, the fervent prayer continued, accompanied by the use of the purest of water. (Use Pure Water, I never equipped the lance in the first place fluffwise And if that doesn't cut it, remove the unequipping of the lance before you remove the Pure Water- the Pure Water is more important.)
:"Dragon, my only wish is not to become that like Prixima but worse- I wish to not betray Menelea's interests for my own. And even though Menelea faces me with intent of harm today, allow me not to strike a Menelean. For what worth is a traitor, and what worth his life? Allow me not to betray my kingdom."

[Sirus]

: "So much for that idea..."

Move to (12,8) to cover Alexander's flank.

[freeformschooler]

: "Mmmm? Why'd you guys wake me up? I was having the best-"

Charlotte looked ahead ahead.

: "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA ARMORED HIGHWAY NIGHT BANDITS!"

Move to 12,7 within Alex's Guard range and equip Iron Longbow before haspen decides I can't change my action anymore.

Also pray to critzoacotl.

[Sirus]

: "Charlotte, wait! They think we're criminals; these are Menelean soldiers!"

[freeformschooler]

: "Charlotte, wait! They think we're criminals; these are Menelean soldiers!"

: "Oh. Alright."

Charlotte thought for a minute.

: "Well, if we're criminals and they want to kill us, I vote we NOT get killed. Let's kill them instead!"

[Sirus]

: "Except we're not criminals. We've been framed...presumably by Prixima. Someone very powerful has put a large bounty on just about every one of us."

[Powder Miner]

Alexander briefly interrupted his prayer.
:"I shall NOT strike another Menelean!"

[freeformschooler]

: "Except we're not criminals. We've been framed...presumably by Prixima. Someone very powerful has put a large bounty on just about every one of us."

: "Oh! But... I thought we WERE criminals this whole time. I mean, are you saying the atrocities our group committed to get to the Dragonstone - particularly around the time of Eor - were legal?"

[Sirus]

: "Oh! But... I thought we WERE criminals this whole time. I mean, are you saying the atrocities our group committed to get to the Dragonstone - particularly around the time of Eor - were legal?"

: "Well...probably not."

: "But we didn't burn down Eor's mansion, nor did we attack Fezzan, nor did we put Kesselring Fortress to the torch and murder its inhabitants. All of these things and more have been laid on our shoulders. Even fighting Eor and his men, as distasteful as it was, was done with Prixima's tacit approval. This sudden rash of charges disturbs me...I think she's trying to get rid of us now that we got her jewel."
