Message: <blockquote data-quote="Plane Sailing" data-source="post: 176622" data-attributes="member: 114">I got a little behind, so detail is a little weaker on this section I'm afraid Justice at lastAs Lysander (in female guise) walks past the gate guards into Southspur, the sargeant of the guards, Clovellin, comes over. “Excuse me miss, but you don’t want to be going into Southspur on your own” he says. “Do you want one of my men to give you an escort?”“No thank you, kind sir” simpers Lysander. “I’ll only be a short while”“Well, holler out if you get into any trouble” replies Clovellin.Lysander and his invisible companions file past the guards, with much invisible jostling and bumping, but nobody is given away. They make their way rapidly to a small building near the outskirts of Southspur. While Darra and others go round to cover the back, Lysander and Anne-Marie come to the front door.“Open up” calls Lysander, “we want to talk”.“Snut off, we’re resting”  comes a voice from inside.Lysander kicks the door down and leaps into the small room, closely followed by Anne-Marie. The two ruffians leap up and defend themselves with daggers as a short but brutal fight ensures. Anne-Marie uses her whirlwind disarm ability to strike away the ruffians primary weapons with her swordbiter, and before long both of the villains are wounded and captured. They had managed to manoeuvre to get in a couple of sneak attacks, but were no match for a whole team that was ready for them.Quick questioning revealed that the goods (and magic gloves) taken from Syl have already been converted into a ludicrously small amount of cash at “Billy the Fence’s place” and by now will be halfway to Tanor. Those goods are lost and no mistake. The prisoners are not though.They are marched up to the magistrates office in the centre of Knightsbridge, charges are brought and the pair are found guilty.The next dawn they are hung in the town square. Justice has been done.Around about this time, Trajan returns from his sojourn with his master with some disturbing news. Up in his home village there have been several reports of a white dragon breaking into barns and killing livestock. It is his old village, this winter being so harsh they can’t afford the loss of livestock and the village can’t do anything about this dragon. It must be the one which attacked them a couple of weeks ago as they were on the way home from Bellhold.Will the rest of the company come and help him deal with the problem? The few eyewitness accounts put it as a young adult, just on the cusp of becoming mature. If they don’t deal with the problem now it will only, as they say, get bigger...next: Dragon hunt!</blockquote>
