Yuri Morotakai

Yuri carefully scrutinizes the man inside--a typical sizing-up between soldiers. He's always been impressed with Andoran armsmen. A look at an officer's underlings generally gives a person an idea about how effective the officer is.

OOC: Trace? thats a new one to both of us. Weavesight check? +11 for both

... and you both managed to just miss catching it, too. <You both got 19s on your Weavesight checks.> Don't worry too much; you'll almost certainly see Lila use this one again.

All my fine planning for nothing, it looks like. Still, better safe than sorry. Pedron still doesn't sheath his dagger, though. It may look like nothing, but appearances can be deceiving. He lets the others go in first, keeping an eye on the beggar. If Ash and Jain are still out there, he hopes they keep their distance. There's no point in exposing the ruse now.

Sersei, Shalimar, Yuri, and Tomas are suspicious, but don't notice anything out of the ordinary about the soldier. The always-wary Pedron, though, thinks the man is somewhat dissheveled for a Guardsman; his tabard is worn and frayed. And Lila is still holding saidar.
 

Pedron doesn't know much about Andoran guardsmen, but this one looks a bit on the scruffy side. Light, even the ones in Lugard show better grooming.

When and if the others have entered, Pedron steps into the doorway, but doesn't enter all the way. He has no intention of being trapped inside. He hisses to Yuri, Tomas, or Sirsei, whoever passes closest, "Watch yourself. Something's wrong with that man." He doesn't bother doing the same for Shalimar, since she's already entered and wouldn't listen anyway, or Lila, whom he hasn't really met. He makes sure not to turn his back to the beggar, but it's awfully hard to watch both ways at once.
 

Ash and Jain slipped quickly and quietly through the crowd and finally came to a stop outside a building adorned with the banner of Andor.

Ashrem nodded agreement in response to Jain’s earlier comments.. "Yea, best to keep out of sight. Stay here and keep watch. I'm going to make a circle around the building." he said with a confident tone. The man seems to have a head on his shoulders at least. If I can every get him out from under Shalimar’s thumb…hard to fault the man though. She is pretty and more than once caused me to act foolishly.

Looking around to see if anyone was watching, he pulled his coat further over his sword and strode off with a casual yet alert demeanor. [OOC: Bluff?]

Ash will try to make his way around the building looking for anything unusual. He will try to peek into any windows he can as long as he can do it without drawing suspicion.


What have we gotten ourselves into? That wasn’t the same guy I saw earlier. Who was it? He kept a sharp eye out for anyone who happened to be paying him too much attention. Always on the look out for the man he saw earlier.
 

Sirsei hears Pedron's warning, nodding slightly to him, but doesn't do anything too noticeable. As Lila alredy holds the Source, she figures it isn't a bad idea to wrap herself in saidar's warmth. She eyes the officer warily, and surreptitiously checks the shadows.

She tries to intuit the man's intentions(sense motive?) through his actions, etc. Anything that gives her a clue will help. She suddenly wishes Shalimar hadn't just walked in like that. Her best friend could be in trouble if this is a trap and she is the one to spring it.
 

"Take us in to see him now, I am sure he will want to see us right away." She says in an imperious voice.

If they are going to do something they should get over with it faster, I have places to going, and I will not waste time on brigands who don't even have the decency to be quick about it. Not like any of them will be able to hurt us, we have Saidar afterall.
 

Jain Hadlin

Come on, come on, come on. Do it. Stay calm, focus, if there's a trap they'll spring it in thier time. Just need to stay calm and bloody well focus.

Jain sits and wait, sweat starting to beed on his brow, bow in hand, arrow nocked and ready.
 

It was nice while it lasted. "Please, MiLady." Lord Tomas addresses Shalimar. "Give the man a moment to fetch the Lieutenant for us."

Lord Tomas stepped forward, still warily watching for the signs of the ambush that are sure to fall. Last I heard, the Andoran Guard was headquartered in the Castle, not some building. Putting on a vapid smile, one that conveys the image of a scatterbrained noble, a smile that can be most useful at times. "You'll have to pardon the Ladies. They tire easily from the heat of the day. It makes them most impatient. I shant hear the end of it if you don't see about bringing the Lieutenant to us promptly."

Lord Tomas steps closer to the Guard and says in a hushed voice, "Just be glad *you* don't have to live with her. Speed things up and there's a silver mark in it for you." As Lord Tomas speaks to the man, he keeps an eye on him, watching for any sign of attack...
