The small force moved southwards. Rhaenys rode at the head, surrounded by her Queensguard.

Euric rode beside Rhaenys and her Queensguard, his face set in a look on intent.

Borcas wheeled his horse towards Saenerys.
"So, what now?"

Saenarys chuckled. "Seems pretty straightforward. We get there, we do whatever the Queen decides is necessary, and if I find out that Kyma has been harmed in any manner, I will personally flay every last one of the devils that had a hand in it."

"Kyma..." He seemed ready to say someting, but then he stoped.
"She's your sister, yet all this mess was caused by her."

"Aye, she was the catalyst, though it is hardly her fault. She has always been willful. But I love my sisters and I would wrest them from the maw of your Stranger regardless of their failings." He laughed.
"I was filled with a burning anger, but that has now been replaced by a contented confidence in victory."

Borcas turned his head around.
"Victory? I don't know... I have heard things for this man Thatcher around the bonfires. He must surely know there is no chance of him being pardoned. Nay, I think he's leading is into a trap to wreck as much damage possible before he falls."

"Either way, I will not be quenched of my resolve until I see Kyma back to safety. We will be successful, we are both competent leaders of men, Redwyne. You especially. You will not fail, and we shall not fail because of it." He clapped the man on the back.
"But your skepticism is well merited. Weigh every possibility. If this is a trap, I want our best strategy going in."

Borcas waved his knot, making the bells sound. Their song always boosted his moral.
"As you say. If they attack, we give them hell. I am not willing to part from my knot before I part from my head. But I am sure that the Lord Commander is excellent at his job. We will simply lead the soldiers in a charge, if things come to this."
He waved his hand, as if to send away a thought.
"I have heard many things about you also, my lord. They are calling you a wizard."

"A wizard is it?" Saenarys laughed. "And who, pray, cares enough about me to make those accusations?"

Alone amongst the hundred, Dyther Morrigen has no desire to be present, save perhaps for a chance at Steve he is unlikely to get with the crowd all gunning for him as well. He has a horn of ale at his side, and drinks swigs from it and smokes tobacco all day whilst they ride.

"Told you already. The men in the bonfires are very talkative." Borcas laughed.
"Accusations? Why? Do you fear the gods? Or the priests?"

"I fear no man, Redwyne." Saenarys said, tapping the pommel of his sword over his shoulder. "I've seen men in all varieties of living, aye and death too. Everyone dies the same though, when they taste a bit of steel."
"Gods though, they might be worth fearing, If I thought they worked their ways in my life. I leave the priests to their Seven. This," He said, indicating his sword. "This is my priest, doing the work of the only god I worship. War." He smiled. "It is a just and fair god, though indiscriminate."
