It is said that there is a parlay between the Captain-General, and the city's leadership going on right now, and all the sellswords are bored.

Kenneth wanders around the camp, trying to kill time. Which when you are waiting for the next battle is a particularly challenging foe to best.

The city walls were indeed tall and thick and Kenneth was getting nervous about his side's chances for taking the city by force.

Jonathon is tagging along and is working on his rhymes.

There once was a man named Rick,
Who had one really neat trick,
He'd pull out his cock,
and break tons of rocks,
cause Rick had a 40 pound prick.

The other Sellswords and Militia captains are there, and General Antonious is standing on the dias that servants carry with him everywhere.

"Captains... I have returned from parley with the General of the Pentoshi cowards. They have requested single combat... and I've agreed. Now it falls to us to decide on a champion to break the Pentoshi morale, and turn them to our side."

Quinno guffawed, and moved to the back.

There were no hands.
