A number of the Lysene Lancers approach. and Kenneth's men looked onward with unease, reaching for sword hilts in case the men intend payback for the death of their Captain.
"Captain Kenneth," one of the calls, "You killed our Captain. What do you intend to do about it to make this right?"

"I did," Kenneth said to the man, "though only because he pulled real steel after he fell."
Kenneth fidgets a little. "Well I had thought you'd have your captain's second carry on with your company but I'll admit that I could use some lancer's in my company and would do well to have an experienced second. If you and your men were willing I'd hire them on for the remainder of their contract with the Tyroshi and pay them an additional 1/2 dragon each up front."

There is some discussion in rapid fire bastard Valyrian between the Lancers. Eventually about half of them curse and walk off, while the other half bow their heads.
"Very well, we accept."
[Bloody Chickens aquire 20 Lysene Lancers (Knights) for 10 dragons.]

"You were the Lancer's second Iagon?" Kenneth asked, "I don't speak Valyrian so it would be helpful to have a man as my second who can.

The man sniffed, "For an additional 5 gold signing bonus?" He smiles.

"That sounds about right for a Second Iagon," Kenneth said with a smile. "Although I expect you to fight as well as two of those other guys."

Kenneth keeps the table open for the rest of the day hoping to get Company men at arms back up to 100 strong before the next conflict.

///////////////////////////////////
Ser Kenneth is walking with Ser Rodrick and Iagon Yuroar enjoying one last night in Pentos before leaving for Lorath.
"Where too?" Kenneth asks Rodrick as the three men walk past a Pentoshi troupe performing in the market. "What tickles your fancy? Ale, girls a bit of both?" he smiled.
