And if there really are all these bandits, there’s no way we can make any kind of strike against them. I say we turn this into an information-gathering mission. Find out as much as we can about what’s going on, and get back safely. All right?”“What if we find reinforcements?” asked Jet. “There are supposed to be some other knights of Canberry down here, fighting the slavers.”“All right,” Kit conceded. “If we can find enough reinforcements from Canberry. Or Princess Anastasia. Otherwise, unless we get a really lucky break, I don’t think we’re going to have the numbers or power to do anything significant.”It was the middle of the first watch when Honore heard something, far back in the woods, and nudged Kit. Kit concentrated for a moment, opening up her mind to Detect Thoughts.  Surround them! someone was thinking, far back in the trees. Take the kidnappers alive!That was all the warning that they had, before the trumpets blew and the clearing erupted with the clank of armor and clatter of hoofbeats as the Hanalians rode forth. The Canberrians were suddenly surrounded by sixty armed Hanalian soldiers. Just as before, there was a good deal of shouting and demanding to stand and deliver and surrender in the name of various crowns, until they managed to get it sorted out that no, they were neither slavers nor kidnappers. Unlike before, however, this group was led by a much more mature-looking nobleman, with his heraldry prominently displayed on his shield. At his side was a severe-looking man in the robes of a Paranswarmian Inquisitor, who, as soon as it had been determined that the Canberry party was no threat, declared, “It is your honor to meet His Grace the Duke of Snattercaz.”</blockquote>
