"I was thinking of that." The Knight-Commander said. "I will send a letter to the Regent, requesting the aid of the Adamantine Order. With their soldiers we will be able to deal a swift blow to the Orcs."

"Hm." Alodie grunted. "The nobles don't care about the Crows, never have. What makes you think they will aid us?"

"Because, the Regent has family here." Gerrick replied.

"You mean the bastard?" The gruff Breton asked.

"Yes, both of them." The Commander answered, looking over at Lyon.

There was no reply. Edgar was going to order the Knights to break the door down but the window on the house next door opened. "Excuse me." A woman said.

Edgar looked over at her. "Yes?"

She inspected the King and the two Knights, then spoke. "I am sorry to inform you but Mr Adrard passed away a month ago."

"What, are you serious?" Agning asked.

She nodded. "He died in his sleep. Very odd, too odd some might say."

"Are you implying he was killed?" Edgar asked.

She looked around the street, which had about half a dozen people on it, then wavedfor him to approach. "I am not sure. The guards didn't go looking for any murders, however on the night he died I heard something. Heavy footsteps. It was past midnight when it happened. I was trying to drink some tea to fall asleep when I heard it."

Edgar looked intregued. "Anything else?"

"I went to the window to see if there was anyone outside, since it was odd to hear noises late at night around these parts. By the tavern, sure, but here the neighbourhood is calm and quiet. The whole reason I moved here in the first place." She said.

"Ma'am, focus." Agning urged.

"Right, sorry. Well when I looked outside I didn't see anything, not at first. But after a bit I saw someone exiting Mr Adrard's house." She revealed.

"Did you see who?" Edgar asked.

"No, sorry. It was dark, I could hardly see the person. But I did notice their armor. It was odd, something I had only see once before. Back in the Stormcrown Rebellion, when Emperor Darius' forces took the city. It was the armor of the Blades." The woman said.

"The Blades? Why would the Blades be here?" Agning questioned. "Why would they kill this merchant?"

"Ma'am, did the armor have white in it? Did it look bright in the darkness?" The King asked.

"No, it was not." She replied.

"It wasn't Blades Armor, it was Dragonguard Armor." Edgar said.

"Good, my Master of Whispers will contact you later today most likely." Perien said. "It is best we avoid each other until this whole Regent business is dealt with."
