You decided to ask Bohémond about Pleasantville. Of course you found him speaking to Rose's handmaiden, you let him finish before approaching him. You saluted him happily and you decided to drink some mead while he will be speaking about what he saw. You asked.
-What about Pleasantville my friend ? What does it looks like ? And the count ? You gave him my letter, yes ?
-Yes, yes of course monseigneur. I gave him, he is a sympathetic man the count, but he told me that he doesn't know you. And this son of his is here to judge you.
-The baron has sent someone too ?
-Yes, yes, I must say that he was wise, he sent this witch of his... Elsa
You remembered the ice cold blonde beauty, it was true that her corsage seemed to be an argument that could distract an honest man, even if as all witches she deserved to burn alive. This was an underhanded method, but typical of the baron.
-And what does this Elsa said ?
-That you were a strange man that belonged to a sect that burned all sorcerers and that you were a troublesome vassal who killed Lord Hostil in a duel for a insignificant reasons. She travelled with the other vassal of the baron, the fat one with the mustache, lord Salty Rival, who told that it was all true and that you probably took lady Takable by force.
-What a bunch of bastards, if they had only one neck I could behead them all in one blow but we need to act more wisely.
You thought about what they said, they were technically correct but they distorted reality with lies. Then you asked.
-And the baron ? He is summoned to the trial too...
-Yes, he is called too monseigneur, the count told that he cannot be trusted and that he wanted to see you in person to judge your character. He seemed to be a nice man, he likes to hunt.
-At least he seems to be less boring than his second son.
-I can only agree monseigneur, the first son is a fine knight but this one... He reads books and thinks that it makes him clever. At least he appreciates french poetry.
Well even the worst men were not all bad, God gave them all a good side.
It was interesting informations but you still had time so you asked your youngest knight :
>Was Pleasantville a lovely town ? >Is there some people in the count's court that are of our party, or against us ?>Why is the second son here and not the first son ?>You didn't run into trouble on the road ? Has the baron tried to ambush you and Ancel ? >Have you managed to see the baron's defences when you crossed his lands ? >Does the count prefers to hunt with a spear or he practices falconry ? >Other (write in)Choose 3 choices please.
