Everyone: Back at the village Theodore and his men are hard at work cleaning up the mess left in the wake of the strike. They dug a mass grave, wrapped the bodies in cloth and place them in the fresh hole before burying them. After that they search the town for any supplies that can be used and for survivors.

Beorthric meanwhile hides Filena from the troops and keeps her silent by knocking her out. The officers of the company crowd around Beorthric to find out what happened.

“My lord, what has happened here?” The men inquired.

“A pack of mercenaries lead by that despicable Marcus Jaghund tore this settlement apart. Fortunately the Archaic has several operations running in this area, so I was able to respond to this massacre. However I was not quick enough to stop it. That damn rapid dog also had some kind of giant creature that helped in the slaughter.” Beorthric lies.

“You attempted to save this monster village?” One officer asks skeptically. “I have never heard of Order knights protecting monsters.”

“Tch, don’t get the wrong idea. The monsters are of no concern to me. I came for the humans.” Beorthric frowns.

“I know of the bastard you named. Marcus Jaghund is a known savage and sell sword. It makes sense he’d have a group of followers that take part in his underhanded activities.” Theodore adds.

The officers all seem to agree to Theodore’s addition to the conversation.

“I will personally speak to the Governor of our state. He will want to see this brigand brought to justice.” Theodore stands at attention before Beorthric and the officers shout in unison as their sense of duty is peaked.

“Good, the Archaic will gladly aid in the hunt.” Beorthric smiles and shakes Theodore’s hand.
