Hlenni's knives reached her first. His left knife stabbed Kal in the right shoulder, but his right knife made its way to her lower torso. She was lucky that his blade didn't manage to pierce her stomach, or she would've been left with possibly fatal wounds.

However, the outlaw had gotten very close to stab her and both his hands were occupied with his attacks. He could neither block nor dodge Kal's attack.

Her blade lodged itself into his neck and within seconds the man fell to his knees, chocking on his own blood. His grip on his knives was lost and he fell over dead onto the grass.

Roaldr was petting the mare, thankful to have her back.

Jofrodr looked at Reyl then at the man. He loudly cleared his throat.

The stablemaster looked up at him.

Jof gestured to Reyl.

"Oh, so sorry. You must be waiting for your reward. Wait just one moment I'll go fetch my coinpurse." The stablemaster said.

A few moments later the man emerged from his house, accompanied by his wife. "Roaldr, you can't possible give them that much money."

"I can and I will." He said, carrying a stuffed coinpurse. "This horse is our future and she's a prized mare. Her brood will be the mounts of the Jarl and his children for years to come. This gold will be nothing to us then."

The woman was trying to convince her husband against this, but he walked up to Reyl and handed her the large sack of gold.

"Here you are, friend, 800 gold for your troubles." Roaldr handed it to her.

Jofrodr let out a shocked gasp and nearly fell off the carriage. "Eight hundred..."

"A price I am more than willing to pay for the safe return of this prized mare. I would not accept anything less if I were to sell her, so it is only fair that I give you this for getting her back." Roaldr explained.
