'Shush my dear' said the old sibeccai to Gilda. 'Everything is going to be fine. I've...had a few words with the captain, and he seems happy that those 3 are going to tag along with the soldiers. I must confess, I'm not too happy about the whole thing, but it seems to be the lesser of two evils, so I'm going too; see if these old bones are good for anything any more...'. For a moment, he looked like a tired, frail old man.
'Once we're gone, you'll have to tell the villagers to prepare as best they can. If the captain is right, and this Lord Ironheart character really is as wicked as he says, you may yet have to run. For now, it's time to show everyone the decisive young girl that used to come to my magical theory class and tell me I'd got the formula for turning cloth into butterflies wrong. You and Ferd need to plan on how to get everyone safely away should the worst come to it'. He put a consoling hand on her shoulder and gave her a toothy smile. 'If anyone can do it, you can'.
