Back at Lord Faulfurn's manor, the team, carrying their new equipment, wait around near the entrance as Lord Faulfurn and Lady Nethea get ready, having dismissed almost all of their previous bodyguard's in favor of the party. As the cart driver dozzes off, the group turns towards Darius Kontar, the most recent adition and head bodyguard, since he is the one taking the orders directly from Falfurn.
"Darius," said
Amadea. "Have you any thoughts for the defense of Lord Falfurn and Lady Nethea?"
"That I cannot say I do, as I do not know what we are dealing with to protect the lord and his lady,"
Darius said.
Amadea hesitated, unsure of whether to trust this "newcomer," but determined that they would need to tell him anyway if they were to formulate some sort of plan to protect the nobleman. "Have you any knowledge of the Deck," he asked the Lynxman.
"I have heard of them...as a matter of fact, I too used to be in their ranks, as I see these two were,"
Darius said, pointing to Rei and Lilah, "I was known as their six of diamonds, but I have now ended my allegience with them."
"Ah," said
Amadea. That's a lot of ex-Deck members. "Well, their current assignment is to assassinate your employers. What say you now?"
"well, I guess we'll just have to stop that, won't we?"
Darius asked is a sarcastic tone.
Amadea walked over to Darius and stood directly in front of him. "Yes, that's pretty obvious," said the archer forcefully. "Why don't you answer my question regarding any plans you might have? Lord Falfurn is paying you do that, isn't he?"
"That he is, I'm not much of a planner myself though, my specialty is poisons and not tactics, so I should ask you the same question,"
Darius said.
"Well this shit ain't gettin' us nowhere."
Rei growled, eyeing Darius with a wary eye, not recognizing the lynx in the time the Ignean had spent with the Deck. After his encounter with Khaza, and having not said anything about it to the rest of his current comrades nor even Liliah, he had become even more paranoid than usual, "Ah'right chum, yuh' realize that yur' in a real suspicious poisition now, right? I dun' reckon'ize yuh', yuh' claim tuh' quit the Deck, and now yur' a part uh' this Faulfurn bast-...guy's security at a very convenient time."
"I understand that, but aren't you in much the same situation? I mean, truly, you are a former member of the deck who is now working with Lord Falfurn as security, and if I remember correctly, you were a higher up in the deck when you quit, so I'd say not to go pointing fingers at anyone. Now you watch my back and I'll watch yours,"
Darius being the long-winded lynx that he was, said that as if it did not hinder his breathing at all.
"I was never a member of the Deck," retorted
Amadea heatedly. "I work for the Empress, so not quite the same situation, as you put it. I have no problem taking you in as a comrade, but let us get something straight. I will be watching more than your back." Amadea paused, and composed himself. "Now, do you have any thoughts or suggestions for how we should go about protecting Lord Falfurn?"
"Not you good sir, but Rei there once was. I too have no problem guarding you as you do me, and I am truly sorry that you have little trust in me. As you may soon see, I might be a valuable asset to your party,"
Darius siad.
Amadea nodded. "Very well." He turned to Gaius. "Since Darius is former Deck, will we need to disguise him as well?"
"It's probably too late for that" said
Saris, who had been listening to the whole conversation some steps away. "The Deck probably knows you're here now if they have been watching Faulfurn and planning an attack" she added, looking at Darius. "Now, is there
anything any of you three could tell the rest of us about the Deck that could be of any use?" she asked, since their discussion seemed to be taking them nowhere.
"More than likely, the Deck probably does know I am here, and personally, I want to see them again, except on the other side of the battle lines,"
Darius said, "More than likely, they will have sent more of the diamonds to come after Lord Falfurn, but I can't be sure."
Gaius stood up and walked to the others, it all seemed extremely suspicious, specially Darius, but if the Lynx had really been part of the deck, they might as well get information. "Darius, Liliah, Rei, if we end up meeting the Deck today, who should we watch out for?"
"That all depends on who they sent with them, we cant really tell who to watch out for until we know who is there,"
Darius said.
Rei ignored the other's conversation, knowing it wasn't getting anyone anywhere, until he heard Gaius ask him something. Looking over at the priest, the Ignean was silent for a moment before shrugging his broad shoulders and deciding to get it over with, "Aah, yuh' got some real bastards tuh' beware of." He said with a growl, "While yuh' chumps went about buying things, I had an ol' chit chat wit' one uh' mah' former mates from the Deck as I was walkin' 'ere. His name be Khaza, a Tharezian n' the current Jack uh' Hearts, and a downright monster he is wit' a bow. Snuck up on me he did." Spitting once on the floor, Rei continued, "He mentioned Lady Aime, a Rysallean and the Ace uh' Hearts, n' a even better archer than Khaza. If yuh' know yur' cultures, yuh' would know that Rysalleans dun' normally 'ave black hair, which she does. I always wuz' fond uh' that girl." Stopping for a moment, he tried to remember who else was mentioned before saying, "Then there's Blizzard, a Hydran, a scumbag, an asshole, a dimwit, a moron, a bastard, n' the current Ace uh' Spades. He runs the entire Deck now; leave that sonnuvabitch' to me if yuh' see 'um. Other than him, I bet the King n' Queen uh' Hearts'll be there too; they call themselves Tank n' Barrage, respectively. Yuh' can rec'nize' 'um by their weapons, which are... err... well Tank's a big idiot who holds a big... pipe thing over his shoulder.... n'... uhh... it shoots a fireball or something out uh' the hole... n' it's big and stuff. Fuck, y'all will know what I mean when yuh' see it!" Growling as he realized that he was talking longer than he wanted to, Rei sped up his words, "Barrage's a small bitch who holds all these... iron sticks held tuh'gether and they fire a bunch uh' lil' pieces uh' light that go RAT-TAT-TAT-TA
T-TAT and yuh' see all these flashy sparks n' huge collateral damage."
Hearing the ignean speak, Saris figured out what he was saying with some effort. "Finally something of use" she thought. "Alright, then... what should our strategy be? It doesn't sound as if they were going to try to kill him with poison or something subtle" she said. "What do they want him for, anyway?"
"It sounds like subtlety will not be the Deck's approach, not with the kind of strength they have brought," observed Amadea. "While we cannot discount anything entirely, I do not believe they would poison him."
"From what I heard, subtlety was not the hearts strong point," Darius said.
"Dun' ask me what those chumps want that Faulfurn bastard fur'." Rei'zel replied to Saris with a frown, "Khaza dun' tell me nothin' 'bout the mission. As for strategy, well... I dun' like tuh' think. Ask yur' priest, he has all the bright ideas." He pointed toward Gaius with a claw as he said this.
"Wait, you just talked to this Khaza fellow? Why didn't you tell us of this?" Darius asked.
"I already told yuh' earlier, yuh' shit!" Rei growled in response, hating having to repeat himself, "It wuz' back when yuh' chumps were still shopping!"
"Uh, sorry, my mistake, I wasn't paying attention at that point. Is there anything else he had to tell you? Anything at all?" Darius asked, after remembering Rei's "speech" he had just given.
"It sounds to me like revenge or something, anyway" Saris spoke, in case anybody cared about her theories. "To humilliate someone in a ball... attacking in his splendor hour... if they're not trying to pass unnoticed, it's the only thing I can think about" she said, "though I might be still wrong". She sighed. "I think we should start preparing ourselves and organize how are we going to work", she added.
Gaius stared at Darius in silence for a few minutes "So.. there's nothing you can tell us about the diamonds?..." he asked, thinking Darius's silence could indicate either that he was lying all along and he didn't really know the deck, or that he was still with the deck and was protecting their secrets. "Nevertheless... Saris is right, in case of an attack, each of us needs to know exactly how to react. Liliah and Amadea, i think it would be best if the two of you remained together and next to Lord Faulfurn, you can guard them and shoot down enemies from the distance, who knows, you might find that you have something in common." said Gaius hinting to the fact that they were both rysallean and archers.
"Agreed," said Amadea. "I suppose it is time to take advantage of my name. It will be less likely to raise suspicion with me being near Lord Faulfurn and we could use it to explain Liliah's presence, perhaps as a retainer or the like."
"Or a girlfriend.." coughed Gaius while looking away, trying to tease the pair. "What should the others do?" he asked still not quite knowing Rei's and Darius's skills, still with a grin from his previous joke.
"Well," replied Amadea, blushing slightly at Gaius light-hearted jest, "What exactly are you two good at," he asked Rei and Darius.
Liliah's eye twitched slightly at that thought.
"I myself am a master of poisons and spells of the earth. And I do believe I may have held some information from you. As you may already know, the diamonds were the master mages of the deck. The jack of the suit is Siv'vhe, an Igean, much like our friend here, attractive woman with a really bad temper. The Queen of the suit is Lady Frost, A hydran, and a beautiful one at that, she may be one of the ones to watch for. The King of diamonds is Lord Jolt, He is a Xiadomin and a grand master of wind and thunder. The Ace of Diamonds is Toxe, no one knows what he is, all we know is that he too is a master of poisons," Darius said, knowing this news would not be a welcome coming within the party, but for him to win everyones trust, he must share with them.
Amadea raised an eyebrow. "You have a bad temper," he asked Liliah with a wink.
Liliah replied, "Well, I guess if I did I would be smacking you right now."
Amadea smiled. "Fair enough," he said. "So, do you happen to have any antidote spells or poison identification abilities just in case Toxe makes use of his skills," he said, turning back to Darius.
"I'd have to see what I could muster against him, I may be able to help against some of his poisons," Darius said in response to Amadea.
"Har har har, no need tuh' be cruel, Lileena." Rei grinned as he caught the others' conversation. Looking over at Gaius as the priest spoke to him, the Ignean raised his Cestus toward his own shoulder and replied, "I like tuh' get in close, tear mah' victims tuh' shreds, n' lick the blood off mah' claws. Mebbe' heat 'um up too, should I ever feel like it."
As the party discussed their strategy, Lord Faulfurn and Lady Nethea walked down, Faulfurn was wearing a very very fancy bard outfit, complete with a hand harp and a fedora, a black mas covering the upper part of his face. Lady Nethea wore a colorful long dress and a mask similar to faulfurn, but dotted in green, blue and black, with feathers sticking out of her headgear as a peacock. The two nobles walked down the stairs and looked at the group. "You certainly look like mercenary bodyguards..." said Faulfurn in a tone that seemed between complimenting and mocking. "In any case, are you ready to depart?"
"And yuh' look like a clown." Rei muttered under his breath before saying aloud, "Ah'right chum, let's get started."
Saris watched the fancy clothes the couple was wearing. She actually agreed with Rei's comment, but didn't say anything. "Yes, we're ready to go" she said, "more or less", she thought.
"Gaius," said Amadea softly to the acolyte. "Are the appropriate people appropriately disguised?"
"Indeed..." replied Gaius absently, he turned towards Rei, Darius and Liliah and gave Faulfurn and Nethea a side glance. "These three here need disguises." he said. "They don't want to get needlessly marked by the Deck" he bluffed. "Do you guys have any ideas as to how to disguise?" he asked the trio.
"Royal 'guise or commomners 'guise, good sir?" Darius asked Gaius, knowing he could easily disguise him self as a commoner with what he had on hand.
"Just gimme' a white sheet wit' two 'oles so I can see." Rei growled, not particularly liking this whole costume business.
Gaius sighed as Darius asked such a dumb question, "Neither" he replied simply and decided it would be best if he decided the disguises. Turning towards Lord Faulfurn, he asked. "Milord, surely your house must have some symbol or shield right? and your guards probably bear it."
Faulfurn, guessing where Gaius was heading led the priest into the guard's room. Fifteen minutes later the whole party was wrapped in dark green hooded cloaks each of the cloaks has Faulfurn's house symbol on the back and were those normally issued to guards. Also, the acolyte made sure that everyone was wearing a face mask covering their mouth and nose, much like those ninjas wore. In the end it looked more as if the group was uniformed rather than disguised, even though the whote outfit made them look like bandits or assasins, the mak on their cloaks made it clear that they were bodyguards. In any case most of them were effectively unrecognizable through the hoods and masks.
"It will arise less of a suspicion if we're all disguised in the same manner..." said Gaius bringing up his face mask. Even though he was wearing the green cloak with the hood over his eyes and the mask over his mouth, his staff and white robe still gave him away as an acolyte.
"I hope I dun' look too stupid in this..." Rei'zel muttered aloud as he fully covered his face with the mask. Being the tallest member of the group, the Ignean was pitifully conspicuous, but tried as hard as he could to blend in with the others.
"Hmmm," said Amadea, noticing the green clashed badly with his clothes. He shrugged, figuring this was about effectiveness, not style. "Are we ready," he asked the group at large.
Saris just shrugged. The outfit wasn't that bad, except for Faulfurn's symbol, but there was nothing to do about it. She nodded to Amadea's question and adjusted the hood over her ears, waiting to leave.
Darius shrugged the capes around on his shoulders, trying to get them in a good posistion, he was, however, used to the green color.
Liliah put her hood up. "Im ready."
Amadea followed suit, putting up his hood and steeling himself for whatever might lay ahead.
The party rode in the back and top of Faulfurn's carriage as they passed through the streets of Deepwood, several other carriages joined them, with bodyguards in similar positions as theirs. The streets were becoming crowded once more, and people, still drunk from the day celebrations, now came out to enjoy the night, the fireworks and the more adult celebrations in bars, pubs and the sort. Finally, the carriage came to a stop near a huge wall which surrounded the giant tree in the middle of Rysallis. Inside the wall were the Royal grounds, and even though there had not been royalty in Rysallis for almost 500 years, the people still called it that way. The royal grounds were a large, walled off oval which comprised almost a sixth of the total area of the city, and they were an assortment of parks, gardens, amphitheaters, outdoor pools and every other kind of leisure structure one could imagine. On one side of the Royal Grounds was the great treem under whichwere buried the ruins of the old city, which were forbidden to anyone without an Imperial Permit. On the other side was what used to be the Royal Palace, an huge mansion where the Grandsheriff lived now, and where the ball was to take place. Usually the Royal grounds (except for the palace and the ruins) were open to the public, but tonight everything was closed for the ball. The carriage went into the grounds and accompanied a long line of carriages and escorts towards the castle, finally, they came to a stop in the ain courtyard of the castle, and Lord Faulfurn got off, extending his hand so his wife could get off, he looked up at the bodyguards.
Gaius got of the carriage and nodded to Faulfurn, then turned to the others. "Let's go now... and no outbursts.." he added, eyeing Rei. "Rei, should you recognize a deck member, let me know immediately and quietly."
Liliah took a deep breath, and got out as well.
"Shaddup yuh' pansy, I know wut' I'm doing." Rei grumbled as he stepped out and walked forward, deciding he might as well act the part of a bodyguard and looking around menacingly at whatever person was in his range of vision.
Saris looked at the gorgeous place, secretly wishing they had come as guests and not bodyguards of this pompous lord. Though, a second after, she recriminated herself for thinking such, and tried to concentrate on what they had to do now. Quietly she got of the carriage and followed the group.
Darius quietly slid from the carriage and quickly followed the group silently, keeping his head covered with the cloak.
Amadea exited the carriage and joined the group, ready for the Deck to make its move.
Lifting his nose as if he had smelled something unpleasant, Faulfurn began to walk away from the group, his wife by his side. They slowly walked through the courtyard towards the entrance, where Faulfurn waved elegantly at some other nobles and engaged some aristocrats in educated four or five words conversations before entering the palace.
"I hope the deck shows up soon or I'll kill him myself..." sighed Gaius turning to the others. "Ok... in case there is trouble, do you all know what to do? try to capture some of the assasins though, we'll need to get some information out of them, Darius, you and I will stick with Faulfurn, casting spells, Amadea and Liliah will be the second line of defense, standing between us and the assasins and laying a good cover fire for Rei and Saris, who will charge forward, its best if we remain in teams as I've just set up, try to get to know your teammate in the little time we have right now, by the end of the night, you'll be fighting side by side, if you can, plan some sort of strategy. Let's go now, Darius, cmon, stick close, I want to talk to you about something." concluded the acolyte further lowering the hood of his costume.
Hearing who he was going to be partnered up with, Rei'zel scowled and looked away from the rest of the group, keeping his eyes peeled for anyone he recognized. At the same time, he made sure to properly equip his Cestus before turning his head to Saris and growling out, "Ah'right, chump, let's get tuh' know each other."
Saris sighed. "Alright" she murmured, wondering how to work together with Rei. Used to work most of the time alone, this was going to be difficult. "So, is there anything in particular you would like to know?" she asked Rei, while looking at the place, searching for dark places and corners where people might be hiding.
"Well I dunno'... yur' fighting style, yur' strengths n' weaknesses, wut' yur' plans are fur' the upcomin' battle, that shit." Rei responded, staring down at the panther at the moment, "I ain't much intuh' teamwork, but since we'll be getting close tuh' the enemy and havin' the hardest time, I figure we may as well have a plan in mind."
Saris thought where to start. "I thought you would be used to teamwork, coming from a team like the Deck has to be..." she said, realizing now from Rei's questions they had never seen each other fight. "Well, about me then... I like fighting with two weapons. I got these nice rapiers which I'm going to try now for the first time, actually", she said, caressing the hilt of her swords. "I'm a shadowcat, if you didn't know. And therefore, shadows and attacking by surprise are more like my style", she added. "For the battle to come, I haven't thought much about it. I can't figure out what kind of attack the Deck is planning", Saris said with a shrug, advancing some steps towards the entrance of the buiding.
Rei rolled back his shoulders a bit as he listened to Saris. Following the panther, the Ignean frowned a little, "Shadowcat, huh? Well we wun' be sneaking up on anyone in this fight." He said as he reminisced on the days when he was with the Deck, "They know we're 'ere and probably who we all are. Them scrubs 'ave the upper hand right now. Yur' two weapon style will be good to have, though, so yuh' wun' be too useless." The Ignean chuckled a little, sharp teeth revealing themselves as usual, before reverting to his usual pissed-off state, "They've got some good up-close fighters, they do, but the long-range bastards.... damn, they'll be tough."
"The idea is to protect Faulfurn... we just need to get him out of here safe, not face the whole Deck to death" Saris said, her mind thinking of choices and probabilities. "What about you? What's your talent?" she asked at Rei.
"Eh, killing." Rei replied simply. After a few moments, he thought that probably wouldn't be a satisfactory answer, and so decided to follow it up with, "Well, killing only those who I have to. When it comes tuh' fighting ability, I'm more the frontul' attack type. Attack, attack, attack 'till either my enemy dies or I do. It ain't pretty, but I'm still breathin', so it works."
Saris answered Rei with just a smile. Not much elaboration in his strategy, she thought, but it was something to be expected. "Do you think you'll be able to recognice any of them?" she asked, adjusting the hood over her head and eyeing around.
"Some uh' them, anyway..." Rei responded with a frown; he hated surprises, "Most uh' them are a pack uh' weirdos. Khaza's a Tharezian archer, n' yuh' dun' usually see lizards waltzing around in stupid dance parties. If that bastard wants tuh' show up and be inconspicuous about it, odds are he'll be 'eavily dressed tuh' the point where yuh' can't see 'is face. I also told yuh' earlier 'bout Lady Aime; she's a Rysallean wit' black hair. Most Rysalleans dun' 'ave black hair, but she'll prob'ly either dye it or wear a mask. Pisses me off that she's participatin' in this, I've always admired the wench."
"Right", said Saris. She thought Rei fitted in a group described as "a bunch of weirdos", but didn't say anything about it. She watched where the rest of the group was, walking into the palace and keeeping Faulfurn in sight. She couldn't hide much the fact that she was a little nervous... she prefered situations where she had most of the things planned and calculated, which wasn't going to happen now. "The Deck ain't anymore what it used to be, hm?" she commented, to keep the conversation going. She wasn't usually too curious (well known is the saying "curiosity killed the cat"), but Rei's story intrigued her.
"Nah." Rei replied gruffly, before continuing, "While I ain't gon' tell yuh' mah' life story, I'll tell yuh' we wuz' a pack uh' true comrades back in the day. Mah' mem'ry ain't too great, hell I prob'ly ah'ready told yuh', but the Deck first consisted uh' me'self, Stefania, n' her older brother Theo. First day we met I tried tuh' mug 'um, but they kicked mah' ass somehow and got me to join their crew. The three of us were the founders of the whole thing n' we recruited who we liked. Early on things were great n' all; robbed the rich, gave tuh' the needy, beat up other thieves, that shit. Then some bullshit came along n' I ditched 'um."
"I see", Saris said after listening silently. "You hadn't told me that before... and I'm not trying to learn the story of your life", she added with an indifference look, trying to hide the fact that she really was interested in getting to know Rei. She crossed her arms over her chest as she examined her surroundings for anything suspicious, without saying anything else.
Darius nodded his head towards Gaius, resting his paw on his mace under his cloak, and followed closely after the acolyte.
Gaius walked swiftly behind Faulfurn, he turned to check Darius was behind him. "Darius, what spells do you know?" he whispered. They were mages, and the mage always had a difficult position in any battle, if they weren't careful, they would be offed by the enemy before they could cast any spells. It was basic tactics, get rid of the enemy mages before they can hamper you with spells, assasins like the Deck, used to working in the shadows and being swift, were especially dangerous, what's more, Gaius and Darius were going to be the ones closest to Faulfurn if a fight broke out.
"I know three spells, entangle, decompose, and poison. For my decompose spell to have much of an effect, they need to have some sort of open wound, but I can take care of that if they get close," Darius said, clenching his mace.
"No" replied simply Gaius with a smirk. "Save all your power for entangle, I'll bless your magical powers so the spell is more powerful. Since we have two archers in the group, immobilizing the oponent will be priceless. Any ideas?" asked the acolyte, quite happy with the plan he had just come up with.
"I like how you think, good sir," Darius said, also very happy with the acolyte's idea, "and for yourself, what spells do you know?"
"Uh? me?" replied Gaius placing his hand on his chin. "Standart acolyte stuff, mostly healing spells... I've learned some rather powerful spells lately, but they take a lot out of me, so I'll have to be careful of how I spend my magical power. I'll have to cast bless on you, then I'll spend the rest on Divine Inspiration on the Rei, Saris and maybe myself, then I'll take a magic potion and prepare my healing spells."
"Very good, we will need all the power we can get against the deck, most likely," Darius said, "We will have to watch each others backs during this fight, so I'd like to know more of how you fight as well."
Gaius stared at Darius in silence for a second or two. "I'm an acolyte, what do you think?... physical fighting is not my greatest strength, yours either, I assume, hence we must be careful and stay back, as cowardly as that might seem, the others will need us to back them up. Besides, how well we fare will depend on what suit attacks us, won't it?"
"Yes, I know you are an acolyte, and do prefer to stand back, but there are those certain people who will rush into battle, not that you would, you seem to be a very calm man, but I wanted to make sure for myself. I, on the other-hand, will still fight in melee when needed, be it that I may not be the best at it, but, sometimes, you don't have the choice," Darius said, in one of his long-winded spouts of talking.
Amadea, occasionally scanning the area for threats, put a comradely hand on Liliah's shoulder, lightly though, fearing she might take offense. "If I may ask, what is your experience with your bow?"
"I have been using my bow practically since my birth." Liliah said to Amadea, glanced at the hand he had placed on her shoulder, then up to his face.
"That is well," said Amadea, attempting a comradely mood. "Who taught you your talent?"
Liliah stiffened up abit at the memory, but replied in a monotonous tone, "My father." Then the memories that had been long surpressed seemed to flood into her mind. She had seemed to have forggoten who he was. For years she had never thought of, or even missed him. It was like her own way of dealing with the pain. She felt the new serge of emotions, and instantly wished that the question had never been brought up. How could I forget all those days, months, years spent with my family? All the good and the bad? She sighed softly. The again, I never did want to be reminded of what happened.... She shook her head, and snapped back into the outside world.
"Ah, I see," said Amadea cautiously, seeing Liliah stiffen. "My father was also instrumental in my training, though more in the sense of moving me along this path with a career in the Forest Guard. Is there any particular reason you chose the longbow?"
"Not really." Liliah replied. "I learned how to shoot on a longbow. It was all we had. So I sort of grew up using it." She glanced over at him, then she looked back at her feet.
Amadea nodded. Having a fighting partner familiar with her weapons was an asset in any fight. "Do you have any thoughts as to how we should approach any threats as they arise?"
liliah thought for awhile. "Well, I'm not really sure..." She thought awhile longer. Think, think, think! she commanded as she searching her mind for ideas.
"Well," mused Amadea. There are a few ways to go about confronting the enemy. Two stuck out in his mind more than others. "There's a couple of philosophies I like, and they're pretty basic and simple. First, we can concentrate on either their magic-users or their own marksmen. Second, we can act as support for our hand-to-hand and magic users."
Liliah nodded her head. "I like the sound of these two ideas." She chewed on her lower lip for a while, thinking. Then she said, "Do you think they will be hard? Or do you think we could act as support?"
"I do not know," answered Amadea. "That all depends on how difficult your former comrades want to make it for us. For simplicity's sake, let us focus on their marksmen until more serious threats arise."
Liliah nodded her head. "Right," She chewed on her lower lip nervously.
