[QUOTE="Old Fezziwig, post: 2753620, member: 59"] [b]Ext. - Dedham Town Center - late morning[/b] One of the town elders, Noah Scudder, nods at your requests. "Ah, Master Abcott, if you would consent to our releasing him into the hands of this man," he gestures to Somerset (who has shown the elders his comission from Captain Winthrop), "we'd be amenable to staying his execution for a little while." As he finishes, he gives the crowd — a prime example of the ugliness war can breed in a citizenry — a knowing look. "I can hold them for a while, so be quick, and find someplace safe. Just in case someone decides to do God's work for Him." At this last, James and Thomas put both hands on their rifles (moving them off their shoulders). Thomas speaks for the two of them, saying, "I think we can deter any of the townsfolk from trying their luck with that, Master Scudder, between the local militia and ourselves." That silent observer, the accused Indian, seems to understand what's been said, but he doesn't make any attempt to speak, although his jaw is [i]very[/i] swollen. He had flinched slightly at Abcott's mention of his daughter, but otherwise remains stoic.
