Kidwell search party

[sethgreyjoy]

"So whom is this lost knight?" Seth asked, taking out his unstrung bow. He fished in his bags for bowstring and upon finding some, began to string his weapon.

[Lord Rhodri Arryn]

"A second son who rode with me in the War of Stag and Dragon," Rhodri says. "We go back many years. A Reachman, by birth, but raised as a ward by a Stormlord -- in that, you have a thing in common."

[Teirney Lannister]

Aerie laughed quietly, regarding him in mock reproach. "But I thought you had wanted a woman who was kind and sweet and understanding? Ah, now I recall your little change of heart." Her smile became something more of a smirk. "I'm sure you'll contrive a way to keep her interested." She winked.

[Lord Rhodri Arryn]

"I seem to change my mind constantly," Jon says, in what might be his first lifetime moment of self-reflection. "It has always been a problem. I get too excited by the thought of something new."

[Teirney Lannister]

Aerie was having a hard time containing the amusement she felt. It almost sounded as if Jon Royce had just realized this. Surely that could not be. "At least you recognize your...weakness. Perhaps you should make it your goal to think a thing through and absorb all the baggage that comes with it before becoming infatuated."

[sethgreyjoy]

"Hmm. Terrible business." Seth finished strining the bow and gave it an experimental pull. The catch was still hard and tight, allowing him to be the only on privy to it's secret.

[Lord Rhodri Arryn]

Jon chuckles at that, but before he can respond, a piercing, inhuman shriek rings out from above. Rhodri's voice comes barking through the column. "There are bandits ahead! Form up!"

[Teirney Lannister]

Aerie heart pounded excitedly. They were looking for one man, but she was searching for entirely another. This could be it. She fell into place neatly, Anarchy snorting his own nervousness.

[sethgreyjoy]

Seth wraps the leather of his quiver around his thigh, for easier access. After removing an arrow, Seth nocked it.

[Lord Rhodri Arryn]

OOC: It's going to a scenario from here, ladies and gents.

[House Dustin]

Roland pulled his horse into formation and drew his sword. As he did so, he transisted control of his horse from his hands to his knees.

[syd]

The two old battle companions draw their swords simultaneously. Their men follow shortly.

[sethgreyjoy]

OOC: Directs Kit and Roland to Gen Board.

[Teirney Lannister]

Aerie flicked her sword lazily under the man's chin, the razor edge pressing tenderly against his throat, as Aranya held him down.

[Lord Rhodri Arryn]

Rhodri rides up to wear Aranya and Aerie hold the bandit captain. Roland is pulling his helm to reveal a broke nose.

"Make him talk," Rhodri says, simply. "Make him tell us about knight with a small retinue, with a remarkable sword."
