: "If I understand what Chris is saying, you won't be leading any more funerals here, no matter who dies. You're going to have to come with us if Prixima's goons are involved. It's just too dangerous now."

[Haspen]

Alexandra blinked.

"Um, but I can't! I'm the one who leads the prayer and hits the golden gong. If I won't start the prayer, everyone will start looking for me."

[Gamerboy4life]

Seyena had quickly thrown her armor on, standing up with her lance over her shoulder.

"Where exactly is this gong?"

[Sirus]

: "Could your servant do it, maybe? He or she could wear a cloak so that people won't be able to tell right away."

[Haspen]

"The gong is in the shrine, of course. And cloaked robes are not allowed - what I wear is the appropriate gear for this ceremony. The whole prayer begins before sunrise and ends some time after the sun is visible. I have to be present during all of it." Alexandra blinked and her cheeks flushed briefly.

"You, you don't have to be so concerned about my safety... I will manage. My father won't raise his hand on me."

[Xanmyral]

Salvatore had been silently listening up until this point, his eyes studying the ground. He never took his armor off. "Oi knew he didn' loike this place fer ah reason..."

"Oi'll be w'ere yah need me ta be. Ormm's been actin' floighty since we 'ave been 'ere, best if'in Oi went ta get him." The wyvern rider nodded in agreement.

[Sirus]

: "What about windows? Are there any big windows near the gong, preferably the kind that can open or be smashed open easily?"

[freeformschooler]

: "It's not your father I'm worried about..."

[Haspen]

@Gregor:

"The shrine is located away from the outer walls. The only window is above the entrance, so people gathered inside can see when the sun rises. It is small and round."

@Charlotte:

"What do you mean by that?"

[Gamerboy4life]

@Gregor:

"The shrine is located away from the outer walls. The only window is above the entrance, so people gathered inside can see when the sun rises. It is small and round."

"How big is the window?"

[Haspen]

"Um..." Alexandra rubbed her chin, trying to remember.

"I think it's diameter is three fourth my height, something like that." As Alexandra was short person, it meant that the window isn't larger than four feet, at most.

[freeformschooler]

: "What I mean is, I fear us escaping alive in the morning could end badly for you or even others at the castle. I never knew Ernest like Chris did, so it's just a hunch. As much as you love your father, I fear for his and your life once this all blows over. No one's ever in greater danger than a traitor to Prixima..."

[Powder Miner]

Alexander, who had been leaning against the wall with his armor on the whole time and had (much like Salvatore) been listening, sighed.
:"I wouldn't worry about staying perfectly unnoticed the whole way through. I can cover our rear, so if they sight us when we're already gone, we're not going to have to worry about ballista fire or the like."

[Haspen]

Alexandra looked aghast for a while, and then she looked at the floor.

"I... we will manage, somehow. My father have connections, and lots of loyal retainers and soldiers. You on other hand, are a band of mercenary soldiers without any real power... no offense. But, but I believe we will get out of this somehow."

"There's one more thing that you might not like..."

[Gamerboy4life]

"Now what is it? I'm sure we'll absolutely love it."
