[QUOTE="MacConnell, post: 7579649, member: 6855223"] [b]Day 268: The Battle Is Won[/b] [ooc]All characters who posted this past week receive 5 developmental points.[/ooc] Maka is lost in his own counsel. Taylar moves back toward the priest with a quick purposeful movement. As he stabs the man with a killing blow, he finds that a newly fired arrow protrudes from the man's abdomen. Vittero, now standing beside Taylar, nods. "[COLOR=#008000]It seems we both found this one too dangerous to leave alive[/COLOR]." One more of the five remaining soldiers runs away once the heat of battle has abated. The four who have surrendered seem completely different men than those of an hour before. It is more than remorse. It seems to the Outsiders that these soldiers may have been under some form of paranormal influence of their commanding priest. The one who Maka had shot, twice, is truly sickened when Taylar brings the captured children out of the priest's tent. There are two adolescent girls and three adolescent boys. They are all still stupefied and must be led like toddlers. Vittero looks at them and offers that they have had their sense of identity dampened and should recover within a few hours or so. With the recruited help of Raven Elk, Adisakti drags the two dead spies back to the roadway and deposits them in camp. Quickly assessing the aftermath, there are the two dead spies, the dead priest, three dead soldiers, and four captured soldiers. There is a large canvass tent and a small canvass tent, still standing, though the larger tent has some burn damage. There are two, four-wheel wagons with paired donkeys still tethered to them. One wagon is almost empty, evidently having carries the functional supplies. The other wagon contains food and water, along with some cooking supplies. One of the captured soldiers addresses the group. "[COLOR=#800080]I cannot believe the atrocities we have committed... all in the name of the Lord of the Day[/COLOR]." He shakes his head. "[COLOR=#800080]It is a sacrilege. I would ask that you allow us the opportunity to make restitution.
