Armello: fate of Kings and Heroes [NSFW,violence]

@Jinx  
that did not entirely match what the file the rats had on them said, it was a wild renegade operation, but a very functional one, mainly due to guard veterans that knew to run the show, news had also reached her of Sylas’ escape, allegedly he cut a path of carnage through the guard, the stewart himself having been wounded, attached was a note that said wound was in fact not real, and disappeared the moment there was a river nearby.

@Cerebrate  
Looks like an escapee made it out of the kings grasp.

@Jinx  
“happens more and more lately, is the stewart getting old?”

@Cerebrate  
Who knows. Roxie had you sign a nondisclosure, im sure?

@Jinx  
“i figured out by now what happens when the rat clan wants you dead, does that count?”

@Cerebrate  
Consider it as such. Youll learn a lot of things in the next few days.

@Jinx  
“not to worry boss, in front of strangers this mouth is only for biting their heads off.”

@Cerebrate  
You can call me shyanne. So, a few ground rules, 1, we sleep in the same camp, 2, we travel light, 3, if i say to do something, you do it, 4, dont talk to other people without consulting me.

@Jinx  
she nods to all of those, mercenaries were for intimidation and killing, not for small talk.

@Cerebrate  
Oh, and i might use you as a pillow at night. So dont be suprised. Now, your turn to list demands, i suspect you want something outside of your fee for this extended trip.

@Jinx  
“1. if you happen across a title of nobility i want a letter of recommendation, i have plans to go legit one day. 2. if you want me to help out by acting along in a swindle, clue me in on it, i can act but i need prep time. 3. you hired an expert for violence, i need a clear stop if violence is not what you want to happen. normally point 4 would be to not wig out about me eating meat but you’re a predator yourself.”

@Cerebrate  
I can manage all of that, actually. And so long as you share, we’ll get along fine. I eat jerky mostly.

@Jinx  
“fish, as should be obvious, though i pride myself on smelling blood just as easily on land.”

@Cerebrate  
We’ll make camp near water if possible then.

@Jinx  
“more than i could resonably ask, thanks, bo-err shyanne.”

@Cerebrate  
with that they moved into the market to stock up on needed supplies

@Jinx  
the usual mingling bustle of one of the more wealthy towns, the guard patrols wore the colors of the wolf clan.
 
“brutish fellows, but no doubt playing to their strengths…”

@Cerebrate  
Cant be stronger than you. They wont be much of a worry though.

@Jinx  
“well, we’re not here to pick a fight already, are we?”

@Cerebrate  
Of course not. Were too busy for that, and the clan doesnt like undue bloodshed.

@Jinx  
rats actually engaged in the latter all the time, but an outsider didn’t need to know that.
 
“so, couple dozen rations a few camping supllies and we’re off?”

@Cerebrate  
Pretty much. Headed northward, away from the castle.

@Jinx  
“sounds like a good direction, the puppies in the gold armor seem jittery these days.”

@Cerebrate  
Its the king, scaring them mostly.

@Jinx  
“weird, i heard stories about that lion those seem less scary and much more, inspiring.”
