[QUOTE="Knightfall, post: 7513653, member: 2012"] Ghal is easy to find. He is brooding by the fire. He looks rested but troubled. It's not surprising. The young man just lost his father. He sits at a small table with four other chairs. Aureus is already sitting with him, silently. "You are awake," Sir Ghal says when he sees you. "Rosie insisted that I let you all sleep longer than Aeron had planned. He's upstairs attending to Raius and your friend. Young Bellath is awake now, although he's still weak. You friend is still unconscious, I'm afraid. Aeron is trying a powerful spell on him. I hope it helps." "And morrow to you, although you'll excuse me if I'm not in a 'good' mood," the young knight sighs. "Please, have a seat. Lady Aureus and I are enjoying some of Rosie's flatcakes and sausages." Ghal downs a mug of something pungent before spearing a sausage with a fork. "We're going to need our energy for the trip to Gurnard's Head." "You assume they will go with you there first before Fort Symas," Aeron says as he steps off the last step from upstairs. "Master Lorien is awake." "The North Gods be praised," a patron says happily with a raised mug. "But, he is still weak," the elder druid adds. "He's in no shape to be heading to that rock. I'll still have to take him to Fort Symas." "I am glad he is better," Sir Ghal replies. "There's been too much death already. And, no, I don't assume that they will come with me and my soldiers ahead of traveling with their friend, but it would be helpful." Caerth arrives to find his mentor standing by the stair well and the others gathered around a small table by the fire. "Ah, Caerth, good that you are here. Now we can get started," Sir Ghal stands. "I have been ordered by Lady Pendour to take a handful of guards with me to Gurnard's Head and place the wererat Hornauer in custody. Whether or not he is responsible for the death of my father or not, we cannot let lycanthropes run around loose. If his curse spreads beyond that rock, it could be end of Carnell. If he comes quietly, he will have to answer questions about what he might know about the other wererat and these cultists he mentioned, and if he is innocent of any evil deeds, he will be taken to the edge of the Standlands and set free, as long as he promises to never enter these lands again. Magic will ensure his cooperation." "If faced with death, he'll likely surrender," Aeron notes. "Wererats aren't know for their bravery. Yes, they're often fanatics, but from what Caerth and his allies have told me, I don't think he's likely to resist, much." "That's why I prefer if you four came with us," Ghal motions to each of you. "He knows you and might be more inclined to surrender if given the chance by you. Regardless, he's either coming with us as a prisoner or as a corpse. The lady was very clear on the matter." He pauses to eat half a flat cake. "So, can I count on you? I've been ordered to leave immediately and I cannot take more guards with me, otherwise the manor and town will be left unprotected." You note that Sir Ghal's mannerisms have shifted to be more like his father's, although there [U]isn't[/U] the annoyance and distrust that Lord Ebal had once projected toward you all. Just an added level of responsibility. "Let them at least talk to Lorien first, Sir Ghal," Aeron protests. "Of course," the knight nods. "Whatever you decided, let me know within the hour. I will not force you." The knight finishes his meal, stands, and then bows to them before heading for the door. "I will be at the beachhead awaiting your answer." [/QUOTE]
