marzius had gone deeper into the mansion that housed "his master's" family. grinning, he threw off his cloak, letting a servant dive to pick it up. he addressed the servants in general. "there's a rather odd group of travelers i'm with. a thief, a fighter, a cavalier, a knight, and a troubadour. they should be in a local inn. look for the most run down inn in town, and that's where they'll most likely be. tell them the master of house reglis is ready to recieve them, and that they are to follow you at once. then, lead them here," marzius was about to enter the master's chambers, when he stopped. "and the thief was tailing me, so he'll probably be in a closer inn, try and find him as well. the master and i are not to be disturbed until the guests are here, is that clear?"
with that, marzius shut the door. the lord of house reglis had to prepare.

Kraft was the first one to arrive. He WAS closest to the house.
"Hi mate" he said casually to the servant that opened the door.
"Pretty place ya got here, eh? Oh; and tell Marzius or whoever is behind this stuff that I've taken one of your messengers hostage. If I die or 'disappear' for a few days, he dies. Pretty clever, eh? HAR HAR HAR!"
Kraft was trying to sound not to worried. He was suprised they found him so quickly. He was usually pretty good at this kind of stuff. Well, he also thought he was a good liar; so he probably sucked at this too. At least he DID have a plan B. Kraul and his companion were waiting inside another inn with the messenger.
So I WAS right... Marzius is pulling something and I don't like it. I'm lucky my knife is inside my boot. They probably won't find it there.
"So; where's your master; eh?"

Marzius had everything situated, when a messenger poked his head in. "There's someone out here, demanding to see you," explained the messenger. Marzius nodded, and entered the waiting room. "Kraft, eh? Where's everyone else?" the mage lord looked around the room. "I expected at least Alexia to answer that summons..." He glanced over at Kraft. "You haven't killed them, have you?" he asked, smiling. One of the servants bowed to Marzius. "My lord, there's several people outside, waiting for you." Marzius's head jerked up. "Let them in already!"
The messenger bowed and departed.

The messenger gave us permission to enter the chamber. Sergey looked around the room, but only saw marzius and kraft. 'Well have at it then, whelp. Where is your master?'

"You haven't killed them, have you? WHAT is THAT supposed to mean, eh? Marzius, I'm telling you, one of your servants is my hostage right now, so don't try anything f-f-funny, okay?"
Kraft was getting nervous. He didn't like the way Marzius said that. It looked like he was right. Marzius was planning something. And for once Kraft hated being wrong.
He nodded in Sergey direction. Sergey had just entered.
"Yeah, Marzius, where's your master? Unless you are the master..."

Alexia entered, dragging Mae and Miley along with her. She wasn't surprised to see the thief and ex-bandit were already waiting for them inside. Both men were facing a much better dressed Marzius. His robes made him look like... nobility. "What's going on?" she asked, looking over at Kraft and Sergey. But they looked as lost as she was.

Marzius smiled at the entrance of the ladies. "Pleasure to be in such wondrous and beautiful company. My heart sings with joy upon seeing your radiant visages before me. I have not lived until this day!" he proclaimed, stepping towards the women. "I am Lord Marzius, heir to the House Reglis seat, and one of the most prominent figures in Etruria. You are my guests. Please, enjoy my hospitality, and tell me of the mission Athos has given you."

"Like oh my god Marzy! You like so never even mention that you were a noble that is like so cool! Have you got any food or a hairdresser or some nice clothes! I mean I love my hair and all but it was like so much better when it was longer and I have been wearing these clothes for like ever I need some new ones like please. This is so cool Marzy!" Miley ranted in one big breath, when she was finished she gave Marzius a big hug.
"So where will be like staying, now that we know you're a noble you aren't gonna just shove us in some sort of run down old inn are you?" Miley said playfully.

'You speak fair... But overlate. You have been in our company for like two days, now. You do remember, right?' Sergey moved to Alexia. 'You don't reckon he has sustained a head injury, hmm?'

"I didn't see one," commented Alexia, looking at the newly announced noble. "But maybe he sustained one during his little distraction earlier. How exactly do you know Athos? And do you really expect us to believe you? We've got no proof, and we've already been branded heretics... What am I saying, we need all the help we can get." She looked at her other companions. "We should probably save the explanations for after we get cleaned up and eat."

"Aaaah. A bath? I'm cool with that." Kraft said, grinning wildly.
He was happy that he was going to learn more about these wrong ideas these heretics have and maybe he would learn more about other... accomplices. In the meanwhile he would probably be 'lending' some stuff of Marzius. He noticed quite a lot of art around the house. And food and water are always welcome too.

'I could use a bite but let's not stall for too long: messengers from the St. Elimene's loyal followers might have reached the castle already.' Sergey said.

"But we can't go to the castle looking like crap so we all need a wash especially you axeman, you smell funny but that's ok" Miley said, she didn't mean to sound mean but it seemed to come out that way, she hoped he wouldn't get mad because of how she put it and the tone of her voice.

Sergey nearly lost it but managed to contain his anger. 'Do you want to die, Miley? Or is smelling good just higher up your agenda?' He turned round to her. 'I can go to the castle smelling like this, or worse, even. And if that what it takes, mark my words: I will.'

During this all Mae just stood arms crossed and jaw firmly closed. Otherwise it might be in the bad habit of gaping open like a dying fish. So...he's noble? Wonderful... "Wait, we're going to the castle? When did I miss that? I am not so sure that it would be a wise choice to go somewhere so obvious. Aren't you people avoiding attention?" She shifted her feet twisting her braid in her hands. "Ah, come on Mae-Mae, there's is uh, nothing, uh wrong, with..." Jacques was of course quickly cut off by a glare from Mae and his high girlish voice died off. "Why do we need to go shopping anyway? What's wrong with our clothes?" She crossed her arms indignantly.
