[QUOTE="Whizbang Dustyboots, post: 4114768, member: 11760"] "You will walk before me, slowly, with no sudden moves, to my tower," Constable Ward Bridger says. "We will wait for Tucker to return from the abbey. Between Bergens and Kems, Leaches and Chandlers, I'm not leaving this town unguarded again." "Ward, my son is an imperial fugitive for conspiring with the kobolds," Heath says. "You take me away what's that going to look like? If ... [i]when[/i] my son comes home, I want as little shame put on him as possible. I can't be adding my own onto his. "I'm going to walk now, and I'd surely appreciate it if you sheathe that sword and keep things friendly. Town's got enough to talk about with Rando looking a fright. And I ain't going to look back either. I'll trust you to keep to your conscience on this. Everything can be explained there." As Heath walks, his hands to his sides, he speaks without looking back. "I ain't ever going to hurt you Rando. I just want to say that even if you don't believe it right now." Heath hears an irritated noise from the constable, followed by the sound of his sword being slowly sheathed. "Don't fool yourself -- I can still catch you with a pegleg." He clumps along after Heath. "Never thought I could, Ward. I watched you chase down a kobold scout in snow three feet deep. Of course we both would have died from that raiding party if the Caver brothers hadn't found us." Heath smiles tightly as he walks forward. "You ever miss those days? Simpler." "Save your words until we're behind closed doors. My ears haven't stopped ringing from hearing all of Chandler's excuses." Despite the situation, Heath laughs. [/QUOTE]
