"Greycowl wants to know if you're still the Knight of the Commons, or if you're too busy playing wetnurse to the king to remember your roots," said the beak-nosed man, speaking much clearer than before.

"Who is Greycowl. And who are you?"

"He's a true man of the people," said beak nose, "he helps us, and not just so that it'll get him a fancy white cloak."

Galahad's eyes narrow. "Do you have bad blood with me? If so, make it clear, so I may judge weather a life was worth bringing it to my attention," he said with an edge.

The larger man looks down at the dead man for a second, almost guiltily.
"He had it coming anyway," beak nose says, "and we've only got bad blood with you if you've become a pet rushing to do the biddings of the ignoble nobles. So have you?"

"What did he do to deserve such a fate? I do what is best for the realm. The Seven guide me, so I may right what is wrong."
He wondered to himself if he did put the well being of the realm before the king. Shame is all he would ever feel for the fact, and he would never say it openly if it were true.

Beak Nose spat on the ground, "it doesn't matter what he did. This is about you Ser Galahad, and what you've done. What wrongs have you righted as bodyguard to the king? What great service have you rendered that some other sword arm could not have done?"

"I have not killed a merchant in an alleyway," Galahad say calmly though coldly. "I have lifted the hold on Dragonstone from those who mean our realm harm. I am in a position to do far more good than I have ever had," Galahad declared, his voice growing more passionate and defensive with each word.
"Tell me what you have done, and what you can do," he challenged.

"We're part of Greycowl's band!" said the larger man equally defensively. "We help people, we protect them! Winter's been hard on all that don't have castle walls and hundred of servants to keep them warm and fed!"
Beak Nose raised a hand, silencing the larger man. "Shut your fucking mouth, Knight of the fucking Cocks," he said angrily to Galahad, "you fought a war, the doesn't mean anything to us. One fucking lord is as bad as the other, and one fucking king is too. You fought a war and you killed people on Dragonstone trying to live their life peaceful like, all cause one man doesn't say to another man; 'you're better than me, I'll do what you say'."

"I killed no man who did not try to kill me. I despised the man for putting his people in that situation, as I moved for the coward to face me in single combat; to spare lives. Do not speak of what you do not know," Galahad said evenly, already forgetting the remark of his title. "Feuding with and insulting me will not help you, nor anybody else. Speak your case. How do you help these people?"

The larger man looked to speak, but Beak Nose silenced him again. "Don't tell him what we do, he's too far gone to see it as anything but an offense to the precious nobles he loves so much. Greycowl won't get any support from this dog, let's end him!"
The two men move in to attack.

Galahad sighs at their ignorance on the subject and moves to defend himself, trying to convince them to yield. He will be more aggressive to the Beak Nose Man, showing him no mercy, yet he will try not to kill the larger man.

After killing the two men, his brow furrows. 'Who was this Greycowl?' he wondered, setting a goal to find out as soon as possible.
Stepping from the alley, he summons the gold cloaks to deal with the mess, informing them of what happened, before questioning about 'Greycowl'.

"Some bandit in the Kingswood, I hear," the goldcloak responds upon being questioned, "got a few Stormlords right mad at him, he does. 'Course, that's just what I hear from some folk, might be just talk."

"Thank you," he says, before leaving to speak to his superior.
