[QUOTE="ajanders, post: 4106613, member: 3271"] Kenn eyes the chain for a moment, but it's really pointless. The chain would hold, but the bolts would splinter out of the cart if any strain was put on the whole assemblage. The crossbow is overpriced, though the talk 'no survivors" makes him consider it more strongly than he ordinarily might. And then... [I]Oh. My. Gawd. [/I] Eyes slitted, Kenn begins to stalk his prey. [I]How did they get here?[/I] Long tapered fingers shake slightly as they reach for the box. [I]Perfect. Just as they were on parade.[/I] The Silver Tower Guards stand at stiff attention, great swords held at precise vertical before their faces. Each guard, in scale, at least six feet tall. The handlebar mustaches are precisely sculpted. The heron feathers on their crests almost seem to wave in an enternal wind. Every scale of the armor is sharp and clear. The bugler's curled signal horn is silver plate. The standard waves in the same breeze that stirs the crest. The captain's mouth is open, calling orders. Kenn closes his eyes for a moment and feels [I]..warm sun, the spice of Father's aftershave...drums! trumpets! Uncle Magnus at the left van of the Silver Tower Guard, winking as Kenn shouted his six year old lungs out...[/I] "Yep!" the old man cackles in his ear. "Toy soldiers. Don't know who's they were, but that don't matter. " "The Silver Tower Guard." Kenn tells him distantly. "One of the orginal Cyran regiments from before the war. My uncle was six feet tall and he could hold the sword with one hand, but he always hated the mustache he had to grow. He got food caught in it all the time." Kenn brings the soldiers out into the light, admiring the sea blue of the cloaks. "The herons are a symbol of faithful guardianship. The upright swords show the Guards would never fall or falter." Suddenly Kenn remembers he is in Karnath and feels the cold is in his bones. He lets the old man replace the models in their box as he wraps his long coat and red scarf tightly around him. [I]Twenty-five galifars. Figures.[/I] "I will be back. I see you know not to break up the set." Leaving the shop, Kenn rejoins the group as Rio is getting them organized. "Eyes bright, paladin. There's bandits in the woods." [/QUOTE]
