-Dark spirit of the forest, stop hiding like a coward, show yourself. If you want to fight me do it according to the laws of chivalry ! If you fight like a beggar by trying to surprise us great will be your shame and the reproaches of the people.
It would work, if this dark spirit had some understanding of what constitutes a proper fight. And effectively, you heard something approaching but you saw nothing, then, as of nowhere you saw a female form emerge. You exclaimed.
-How could...
-It is an invisibility cloak ! You really never saw one ?
It was a voice that you knew, the voice of Lady Sue, how could she be there ? She then said something and a strange kind of glowing stone began to be lit, like the one in your chambers when you were in the Baron's castle and you could see her clearly. It was her, how had she managed to follow you ? And an invisibility cloak, what was it, you never heard about this kind of thing... But Father François asked the true question that mattered.
-Why is this woman dressed like a man ? And why does she carries a sword ?
It displeased the lady who answered to the holy man.
-And why do you wear robes ?
To be completely honest she was not disagreeable to look at, she had a kind of leather armor probably to not be heard, not very effective but who showed feminine forms that were interesting to watch. But of course, it was improper, and Father François was right, it created sinful thoughts. You decided to put an end to this discussion by asking.
-May I ask you why you are here my lady ?
-Why am I here ? I told you that I will learn what trick you had used to kill Fors, and now I know ! You made a dark pact with witches ! I was sure that you were evil ! You will not manage to hide it !
You looked at her, clueless... Of course she thought this, she disbelieved you about Lord Hostil and she was probably close to him. But she followed you. How did she managed to do it. You answered, before she had the time to do one of her great speeches.
-You followed us ?
-Yes ! You did not thought that I would do it ! But I am an adventurer, I have to remind you that...
-Alone ?
-Yes.
You were shocked, even if she had a sword and knew how to use it a woman travelling alone... What if bandits attacked her ? Or Ghibellines ? Before you had the time to reprimand her she explained, while unsheathing her sword decorated with jewels.
