[Blade Master Model 42]

Brann was first to move through the door, and the first to be seen by the young woman cutting potatoes. "What do you wan- wait a minute, your aren't one of the soldiers. Who are you?"

[Swordstar]

"Who I am doesn't really matter. I'm not with the invasion force and I'm here to try and help a group of prisoners that were captured recently. If you would be so kind as to inform us of the best way to reach the dungeon, we will be on our way without disturbing you or your work." Brann bowed slightly before moving to allow Ursa to enter the room as well.

[Blade Master Model 42]

"...You're here to free the princess guard?" The woman said, staring in disbelief. "Are you freeing Princess Diana herself as well?"

[Sirus]

: "Ursa saw travellers taken captive and followed. We will free them." Ursa of course didn't know what a Princess Diana was, but he assumed the older woman was referring to the group they were here to save. Maybe Princess was the name of this place?

[Swordstar]

Staring at the woman in disbelief before turning to stare at Ursa, Brann's thoughts were racing. It was the princess? How could... "I... yes. We will of course if we can. We are here to save the whole group. Is the princess somewhere else? I mean... of course she is, they wouldn't keep her in the dungeon surely. If you could somehow get word to her... Have her visit her men? That would be the easiest. But we will not leave her behind."

[Blade Master Model 42]

"The princess is kept in her room!" The woman spoke urgently, clearly excited. "But you can't both move together- One of you should break the soldiers out of the dungeon, and the other should go retrieve Princess Diana. I can tell you where you need to go."

[Swordstar]

Glancing at Ursa, Brann nodded. "Right. I'll go to the princess. Ursa, you go rescue the men in the dungeon. Unless you would prefer to rescue her?"

[Sirus]

Okay, maybe Princess wasn't the name of this place. Apparently it was someone who needed help?

: "Group in dungeon big, right? You go there. They follow you easier than follow Ursa; Ursa might scare them. Ursa go save Princess. One person easier to convince not mean harm."
It made sense in Ursa's mind, at least...

[Swordstar]

Brann paused and then sighed. "I will probably be able to explain things to them quicker. Just be careful. Princesses are different than normal people sometimes. Don't order her to do anything, just offer. Explain that you're there to save her and that her companions are being taken care of. I'll try to catch up with you as quickly as possible." Turning to the servant, he smiled. "I think we're all settled. If you could just direct us on where to go?"

[Sirus]

Ursa nodded at the other man's warnings (though he really didn't understand why they were needed) and looked at the older woman.

: "How many enemies near Princess?"

[Blade Master Model 42]

Ursa nodded at the other man's warnings (though he really didn't understand why they were needed) and looked at the older woman.

: "How many enemies near Princess?"

"There's supposed to be at least one guarding her door at all times, but there are going to be more wandering the hallways. Be careful..." The woman gave Ursa directions toward Diana's room, then told Brann how to reach the dungeons.

[Sirus]

Ursa nodded as he memorized the directions, and turned to the other Man.

: "Good luck." With that, he took his hatchet in hand and set off on his quest.

[Swordstar]

Brann noded and drew his sword before slowly and quietly heading off in the direction the woman had told him.

[Blade Master Model 42]

Brann and Ursa go their respective ways, and make their way deeper into the castle. As Brann moves toward the dungeons, it comes to his attention that there just are not many soldiers about. He manages to make it to the dungeons undetected, where the rooms are surprisingly quiet. Though he can hear quiet breathing in the next room.

~~~

Ursa, having gone up, was encountering somewhat more enemy troops, though he was able to adapt his hunting skills to keep himself from being detected. Eventually, he heard voices- A young woman, first commanding, then resigned, and a young man, first nervous, then relieved. The woman's voice was familiar as well.

[Sirus]

Ursa crept closer, trying to catch a glimpse of whoever was speaking. The female voice sounded a bit like one of the traveller that had been captured...could this be the "Princess" everyone was talking about?
