Rhia's mentor stands firm, ready to fight "You will have to take it from my cold dead hands you monsters."
---
Rhia leaves the campus with a worried look. she hurries through the surounding streets. as she reaches the outskirts of town, she takes out the wrapped item and unwraps a bit of it. she stops in place and stares in shock at its contents. The Alba Fire emblem piece lay in her hands. she quickly re-wraps it and puts it away, looking back at the school. She knew now that it was unlikely she would see her old mentor again. She continues on, running into the forest.
--------
Xalan stands "I'm going to go get more fire wood. Then we should head into town and restock."
Leona nods. She watches him leave ad sighs, looking back at the fire.
-----
Ra soars above Godric and his small group of archers. from where he flew, he could faintly see the desert in the distance.

"As you wish!," the pursuer who had pulled out his sword said before leaping at the man with a slash of his iron sword. The other one went to the side and flanked with a stab of his iron lance.

Xyrec sat around a small table. A few men sat around him looking slightly confused. One finally spoke up.
"Umm Sire? Not to be rude, but where are the other advisors?"
Xyrec looked at him bored."I dismissed them. They were not needed."
The group look shocked, but Xyrec continued his speach.
"I have gathered you here to tell you my upcoming plans. The capitol of Galiere, Feressis has fallen. The King and Queen dead. Resistance is slowling, but I will begin sending more troops to deal with the isolated pockets of resistance. Another major issue is their missing Prince. Prince Valek. He holds with him the Galiere Fire Emblem piece. We will find and kill him. Another issue is one in Alba. I have sent some forces to obtain the piece, but I highly doubt it will be an effective strike. Alba will become an issue soon. Their alliance with Galiere will bring them to war, but we can easily crush them with even a small section of our army. I have received a envoy from Owgron. Their leader wishes to dicuss matters with us that may be revelvant to our interests. We will begin talks soon. "
Xyrec paused a moment. " As for the Princess she will be dealt with soon..."

"I'm coming to ensure that this is done correctly. I'm going to ensure that the princess is taken care of correctly. I have two men with me. I'll make sure they handle themselves properly." he said calmly. A small smile spread across his face. Oh yeah, I'll take real good care of her. he thought to himself.
Two soldiers awaited outside, when they saw Khrys, they saluted, and began following him.
((Both level 3 soldiers))

Regis stops. "I do not appreciate the implication there." He turns and glares at Khrys. "You make it sound as I am an incompetent, and may I remind you as you're joining me this mission goes as I wish it. Are we clear?"

Khrys stopped and dropped his smile. "Regis, you're speaking to a Halberdier, I'm not a fool. You are in charge, I am coming along as added muscle. Plus, I was trained and grew up in the forests around here. I'm a master tracker." he said mounting his horse. "Besides, I'm sure this rouge, or shaman, or whoever it was that has her, isn't a soft cookie....and, three men are alot harder to be made aware of than a whole unit, don't you think...sir?" he added as a after thought.

"True, but that's only if the whole unit remains a whole unit." Regis says. "Shane?"
"We can divide into two extra groups. The ones who lead are common hirelings. They know not to cross you." Shane speaks up.
"Good. We will meet up with them soon enough." Regis says.

Morning came, 4 warriors from the village came out with one of the elders. "Garen?" the elder said aloud "Right here sir" Garen replied as he came out of one of the tents. "Did you take care of them already?" the elder said in shock. "Yea, it was easy" Garen said with a smile The elder and the 4 warriors came and took what was stolen from the village leaving a few things behind. "So these guys didn't steal a chest of gold from your village" Garen asked surprised "Nope, all the gold that was stolen has been accounted for, you can take whats here as your own if you wish, whatever you don't want we will take back to the village, consider it your payment sir Garen" the elder said as he bowed. (about 8 hours later back at their mini rundown fort of koolness aka the batcave) "Will, you did great out there." Garen said as he took him by the arm and pulled him into one of the storage rooms he then opened an old chest."This was your grandfathers sword" Garen said as he pulled the blade out and handed it to Will. "Amazing, it feels so light and balanced like it was made just for me" will said in amazement "Rico, had the sword custom made so that it would never break from over use, and it would feel like a perfect match to the wielder, so long as they were of our family." Garen said with a smile "Practice with it, I'm off to double check our reward for killing the bandits." as he arrived he took inventory of what they had gotten 1 iron blade, a javelin, an iron Axe, a throwing ax, some magic tomes (light and fire) and 3000gold. "Not a bad haul" he said to himself as he put it all away in their other storage room.

A couple noticed the Garen's fortress and walked toward it.
"Hello?" Theman called out."Please!...Is this the military? We need help!" He called out to as he advanced closer to Garen's fortress.

Valek looked out across the town as they began to leave. It was a small village, Luel, but it was nice. Very beautiful, and many kindly priest lived there.
Valek finished his packing and looked outside the small hut the village had let him stay in.
The only troops he had to reclaim his homeland were his loyal guardian the paladin Ogden, and two cavalier named Cliff and Russel.
Valek place a sword on his belt, gathered the rest of his possesions and walked outside. "Alright." Ogden spoke in his deep voice."Let's get moving. Maltorin could be here any moment."
Valek nodded, although he was worried about the people that lived here, and protected him here, and how Maltorin occupation would treat them.
As they began to leave the village a voice called out."Wait!"
Vanek's group turned and watched as a younger cleric came running toward them. She evlntually caught up and panted slightly before speaking.
"Please, your Majesty. My name is Jessica, and my village wishes for me to accompany you. We know your army is small...and...and we must help our prince, no matter the costs...you...you are the one hope for our country.." Jessica spoke sadly, as she looked down.
Valek lifted her chin up."Don't worry...I will save Galiere." He motioned toward Cliff and his horse.
Jessica nodded." Thank you, Your majesty."
"Please...call me Valek."
"Thank you Lord Valek." She jumped on Cliff's horse as Valek's group ran south, toward Alba.

"Here we are." Regis says.
Standing before him was an Archer, 2 Mercenaries and a Knight.
"Why so few?" Shane asks.
"A few of the others were planning on making off with the Princess themselves. We took care of them." The Archer says.
"Tch, so be it then." Regis says. "Is this to your likeing Khrys?"

Leona looks up, hearing something in the bushes "Xalan?" she scans the area and stands, grasping her sword hilt. she watches as three soldiers appear from where was once behind her.
"Found you..." one says
she looks at them, with a glare. as they get close to her, she kicks embers from the fire into their face and she runs.
the soldier hit swats at his fface and glares "Ooo! this better be worth it! After her!" the three give chase.
Leona rus from her pursuers for a few minutes. she looks back to see how far from her they were and turns a corner, only to slam into someone.
"Hello!" Ra, the someone, laughs.
"I'm sorry." she says on the ground. all she sees of him is his hand extended to help her up. as he does, she sees his wings "A laguz? What is a laguz doing in the forests of Maltorin?" she asks suspitiously.
"Well miss I could ask you a similar question." he says, and spots the guards "Friends of yours?" he asks sarcastically. as the three get close he raises a hand "I'd stop chasig her if I were you..."
"Get away sub-human! She's a fugitive, and if you comply, we'll pretend we never saw you here and won't ask questions." one says, another seems nervous.
Ra frowns "Sub-human? What a filthy term..." he smirks "Have it your way." he charges at the one who had spoken to him and flies up above him, then drops down on his shoulders, pulling his helmet down over his eyes. he smiles and twists the soldier's neck two ways, snapping it. the other two stare a moment, stunned. One goes to charge at Ra.
"Flux!" the charging soldier is hit by the dark magic attack. Xalan appears.
Leona draws her sword and strikes the soldier finishing him off.
the third soldier charges at Leona, and is struck in the forehead by an arrow. Godric sits on his horse with his bow in hand. "Always getting into trouble aren't you Ra?" he says sounding a bit angry.
Leona turns "Godric? Sir Godric is that you?"
Xalan moves closer to Leona defensively.
Godric looks at her "Princess?" he asks and gets off his horse. he bows to her and stands "My lady, why are you out here?"
"Haven't you heard?" Xalan asks eyeing Godric
"What has happened? Xalan you look at me like you expect me to attack."
Ra looks at them "You know each other?...Princess?" he asks with interest

Khrys smiled. "Yeah, this should be small enough, that they won't know what hit them. We'll take out her gaurds, and then bring her back, I still say my men and I should go ahead first. To test their defenses. What say you." Khrys responded without looking away from the new comers. They won't pose too much of a problem, should things get hairy. Just gotta make sure. he thought to himself.

"Of course." Regis says. He knew there was something about this man he didn't like. However it was inconsequential. He would prove useful for now.

Leona tells Godric her story. As she does, Xalan watches Godric with suspition. Godric of all people he thought would be loyal to the true crow, but he had thought that way of many of those who had betrayed Leona.
Godric looks away quietly, and solemly "My Princess....I grieve for you and the loss of a great King...I don't think you need me to tell you your father was a great man." he places a hand over his heart and bows to her "My bow and sword are ever loyal to you my lady."
Leona walks over and hugs him "thank you..."
Xalan smiles very faintly "And Xalan, I commend you for your bravery. I'll be hoest, I never thought you had it in you."
"It's amazing what comes out of people when they fight to protect country and King." Xalan says, and glances at Ra, who looks absolutely mortified by the story.
Leona too looks at Ra "So, what is a laguz doing this far out? I can tell you are a bird, and Avius is far off. Not to mention I rarely hear of Birds traveling away from home."
"My men and I found him near the desert m'lady. His name is Ra. He is not hostile." Godric says
Leona nods "I trust you Godric." she says to him "So then, Ra was it? What type of bird are you? I...can't tell. I know what the different bird tribes are suposed to look like but..."
Ra smiles "I am a hawk, Princess."
Xalan raises an eyebrow "A hawk? But why are your feathers such a golden color?"
Ra smiles again "My mother was a heron." he explains, thankful that they didn't seem to know much about laguz, because if they did they would know that his claim was absolutely false.
