Dalia examined her armor, then the men, and nodded.  "Then we will go in.  Full force- those who would fight us are to be subdued if possible, killed if not.  Those who shelter behind us are to be protected.  Somebody in that village knows where the rat has scurried to, and we will end it, once and for all.  I have the power of the dragons at my side, and you are all remarkable mortals who will be reborn as dragons your next lives, I can guarantee that."<br/><br/>She Led them towards the village.  "Stand ready.   Ivan, keep to the shadows- be our surprise weapon if need be.  The others with me."<br/><br/>A group of 12 thugs came out.  "So it comes to this.  Get the boss."  One of them ran, and Dalia let her flaming aura, the mark of the dragon blooded, flow around her.  "Yes, get your boss- so he can meet our judgement.   So few terrorizing this village.  So very few."<br/><br/>(Figuring we will fight these as a mass unit- before the Fey comes.  And you MIGHT exalt facing the fay- or I might have him have a larger force that captures us and we need to exape-that seem good?)
