[b]Fortis was sitting in an alley tinkering with the frame of a firearm. He saw Rook out of the corner of his eye, and got up to say hi.[/b]
English
-
[i]Rook notices Fortis as well.[/i] "Fortis, just the person I've been looking for." [i]Rook's tone of voice didn't sound too excited, almost aggravated.[/i]
-
"I assume you aren't here to ask for a game of chess. What is it?"
-
[i]Rook tosses a broken helmet at Fortis's feet.[/i] "What I want is an explanation for why you killed one of my friends." [i]Rook of course talking about Rhodes.[/i]
-
"You knew that guy?" [b]Fortis asked.[/b]
-
"What makes you think that?" [i]Rook says sarcastically.[/i] "Of course I knew him dipshit. And now I want to know why you had to kill him."
-
"Well, it was a long story. To shorten it a bit, some guy threatened to kill me and my army if I didn't assassinate some people. So I did."
-
[i]Rook pauses.[/i] "Rhodes would have understood that. Now, why is there now an army at the gate looking for you?"
-
"Because I killed Destanius back on Magna Bellum. Well, I ordered his death anyway. That is his brothers army, and he is pissed."
-
"Alright, now, I'm not a big fan of giant armies attacking this place. Now, I was just gonna let them kill you because you killed Rhodes, but, I think attack the giant army sounds like a better plan, you in?"
-
"Sounds good to me. Here is the plan, you and I pretend to parley, and then assassinate their leader. Once that happens, we can mop up the rest of the army."
-
"Sounds like a plan. Let's hurry so they don't get impatient and charge in here."
