Help! They got me!"  Instead of speaking, Private Stander removed a horn from under his cloak, and quickly winded it, taking a step back from Zaeryl in the process.  Private Squatter became his mouthpiece, quickly barking orders to the three.  "All of you!  Drop anything in your hands, put your hands up, and go to your knees!  No time for foolery now!"[code]........ET...........Z..A.............Q......[/code]Eternity 8Almayce 1[/sblock]Ironwolf 8Eternity 8Almayce 1</blockquote>
