"I am going with you. My father wishes to see you. I will be with you." Kate could not promise she would be harmed. It has happened before to those that did no cooperate interrogations. She did not think her father would harm the girl. The guard started to moved toward the girl with a rope. "That is not necessary Sir. She will be compliant." Kate could not stand to see anyone chained...not unless they committed a crime or murder. Had the girl, had Alyx. The mage believed anyone deserved a second chance. The girl was no exception. Kate hoped her father would allow the girl to be under the care of the mages. There she would be cared for and not influenced by Alyx. Kate found herself feeling new emotions was the girl and Alyx former mates, lovers, or just friends. She did not want anyone to come close to Alyx. Kate surprised herself with his thought. She never cared before who her friends were. Kate looked to the girl. She was a fighter and in Kate's eyes a possible threat. Death was for those that deserved to die. This girl was a slave and needed to live. A country family would be best for her. Kate led her to her father's tent. It was always busy in the middle of the camp with officers, squires and messengers.<br/><br/>Kate waited until her father made eye contact with her. "Come in Katherine and bring our prisioner."<br/><br/>Lyons was standing in a tunic and dark pants. He had removed his armor and closed a map. The last of his officers he dismissed. "I will interrogate the girl. See we are not disturbed Captain."<br/><br/>The officer Kate recognized and she resisted any sign of affection to Artimus. She had no heartfelt feelings, she had grown up knowing him and he was as much a part of the family as Ann or Peel, her father's driver. He smiled at Kate as he passed. Kate smiled back and gave slight curtsy and held her hand to chest. Kate led the Reika into the tent.<br/><br/>Lyons looked a the girl with a serious expression he stood relaxed. "Please have a seat both of you. I won't harm you as long as you give me no cause to." Lyons did not try to approach either. Kate was happy to see her father. She did not make any moves to show him affection. In camp he was on duty as far as Kate was concerned.<br/><br/>Lyons pours warm cider for them both. "What is your name and why are you fighting?"<br/><br/>Kate takes a mug and takes a sip and she hands a mug to Reika. The mage gave the girl a reassuring nod.
