Elsbeth caves the head in of the last standing pirate with her staff, putting the battle to an end with a sickening crunch and the splatter of brains. The few villagers too frightened to run out of the local area watch as Yolkana grabs the elder of the two Black Earth Clan chiefs and places his sniveling, crying form next to his unconscious brother still suffering through the effects of Angelina's sleep spell.
"People of the Black Earth Clan, you have been found aiding and ab bedding known criminals raiding our civilian caravans to the north. I am Yolkana, an agent of the Azure Legion sent to investigate your doings and to report back my findings. I pronounce the judgement of death as is my duty to uphold the laws of the Emperor Hirkáne, 'the Stone on which the Universe rests'." Before the crying chief beneath her can take all of this in and react, Yolkana swings her sword downward upon his neck, severing the majority of it away with one hack before doing the same to the man's unconscious brother.
A wail erupts from the crowd and the villagers fall to their knees and cry for forgiveness. Yolkana coolly wipes the blood from her blade and sheathes it, before moving to the front of the crowd and kicking the lead men and women up. "Enough. You cannot wipe all of your dishonor away so easily, and there will be repercussions upon your guild upon my return. However, I will ask for a lenient punishment if you do as was promised and provide myself and my servants guidance through the marsh and towards the recently discovered temple. Further, you will dump this poison into the waters while I watch so it cannot be used again by our enemies." The crowd can't move fast enough to comply.
Yolkana nods towards the Relic Hunters and says, "You have done more than adequate work so far. If you wish it, l will allow you the honor of questioning these men before I slay them."
