"What isss wrong, my Duke? There isss ssstill no word from Raven Ssspring, but I'm sssure Lady Lisss hasss everything under control.", Dùlan noticed the Duke's concerned look.

The last few days aboard the Queen's Halberd had been very unsettling. Part of the King's army went back to Farrun and that didn't help to appease Tormund's Captains.

Sure, most of them were happy to return to their old ways, boarding enemy's vessels, looting the resources contained within. Seafaring at its finest.

But this quickly changed once King Tormund ordered them to stay put and all together, waiting. The Captains were starting to question the good old King's sanity...

"This is not why I'm worried, Dùlan.", the Duke's cold, emotionless voice answered, "Can't you feel it? Someone is making an army...of our kind. I know who, you know who and we both know what that means."

The coldblooded, sadistic creature lowered its head, "I do, milord...I do. But you needn't worry, Borgusss persssonally trained thessse onesss. They won't betray you, my Duke."

"We'll see.", as always, Duke Vladir Draluc was a man of few, but threatening words.

...

"They retrieved the fortress, Your Pompous Highness. Yet, Lord Mandaloon says they won't leave until he gets his wife back.", Shandy informed the King.

"Stop with that shitty way of talk, Shandy. It doesn't suit you...", Tormund spat, "But tell me, who was the person they captured?"

"Some Lord something...Read the letter if you really want to know the name. You know what we have to do, right?", Chandagnac changed into a more serious tone. Being the King's Quartermaster had its perks.

"I know what is the right thing to do, but the real question is: should I?", the way Tormund said those words made Jacques doubt his own safety around the Captain. The big breton could be insanely scary sometimes.

"My Queen.", Lisbeth called, "The problem...you must inform the King and"

She was interrupted by Allera's hand gesture.

"I've heard you, Lis. Trust me.", the Queen commented after a few seconds of silence and after finishing up the letter she was writing, "The message has already been sent. You can either stay here for protection...or leave to find them on sea."

"On sea, my Lady? How?",

"Loktar can sail my ship to tale you there. It is a small schooner that will take you there unnoticed.", Allera explained.

''Hmm, the seas? That could work.'', Lisbeth smiled, showing her extremely white teeth, "That would be marvelous, my Queen."
