>>5932166Yes, is death is most unfortunate, he was a brave man, even if Italian.
>>5932178>>5932217>>5932334>>5932799The first question that crossed your mind was of course.
-Why did you came to my lands with swords and crossbows ?
Then they looked at each other as if they did not understand. Finally the lizard woman spoke, in a strange, almost hissing voice.
-My lord... We are adventurers, swords, crossbows, batons, magical staffs, such are the tools of our trade. How are we expected to finish our quests without them ? At least for those who are not high ranked monks.
You were skeptical of her answer.
-I do not see what monastic practice has to do with it. But let us admit that you have, as commoners, the right to be armed without being in the retinue of a nobleman, but then, lizard lady, you did not answer the first question, why are you on my lands ?
She seemed to be quite astonished at this and answered.
-I am not a lizard ! I am a dragonborn, born of the fire breathing dragons of the mountains.
It was enough to cause father François to do the sign of the cross.
-The dragon, always a sign of the devil !
It was true indeed, these people were horse thieves, demons, foul wizards, women dressed as men, and people of draconic blood, they must be burned, in an ideal world of course, or hanged if they were simply stealing horses. But before all of it you had to ask.
-Who leads you ?
They all turned towards this dragon woman, who had to tell.
-I am the nun Taha, I am the one who speaks on behalf of this group, these are our two rangers, Fyre the Tiefling and Dori the Dwarf. Then there is our half-orcish shaman and magician, Grougabooga of the Swamp. The Paladin, lady Karen insisted to accompany us on the road.
She was cut off by the woman in armor who told.
-Yes, and I have to talk to the local lord, privately.
Enough was enough, this lizard woman impersonated a member of the monastic orders, pagans did not have monks, it was known and you knew what to do.
Adressing the leader, that you now knew, with a strong voice, you told.
-Then, Taha the false nun, know that we have you surrounded, drop your weapons and you shall be judged in accordance to feudal law.
There was much scandal and complaining from these people, they screamed about treachery, the woman in armor unsheathed a sword, while the others, disobeying, took their weapons. What do you do ?
>Drop your weapons, I will not say it a third time. (rulership roll)>You have my horses, what tells me that you are not horse thieves, if you did not steal them then drop your weapons and we will speak in my great hall (intrigue roll)>Kill all those who refuse to surrender guards, montjoie ! (combat roll)
