Gabriel nodded when gnome made his threat he replied; "I promise not betray your trust in me." When gnome continued to talk and talk about the king he looked calmly on the gnome and he replied; "There are going to be changes, changes to a better from before. But I cannot address said issues so long this revolt is going on. Revolt which fed on what protectors did but present music is led by Asmodeus and end tunes will make protectors look kittens compared to changes what Asmodeus will bring. But thanks the crisis I managed reduce influence of protectors for present time by sending them out from capital despite their prowess in battle but I have got some new allies who are not protectors. But none the less there are going to be changes once revolt is solved.<br/><br/>But try believe me when I say this; king may have allowed some hideous acts what protectors did because he trusted too much what protectors told about some cases and anyone who tried say otherwise were either blocked or silenced by protectors. Or discredited whatever lies protectors told to the king. I know it is going to take lot more than words to convince you and people to regain trust back to the king or convinced about this matter, that's why king trusted me become commander for him and lead on the battles and operations ahead. Also be architect to the changes what I have planned to accomplish once things start to be peaceful again in this kingdom and no longer threatened by Asmodeus cultists who are seeking exploit this revolt for their ends.<br/><br/>I swore obey the king and his lineage as a cavalier, but my heart and compassion I haven't sold out as I am also paladin of Iomedae and so champion of the people. It has been years a difficult time for me balance in blank between my two oaths but now I feel I can finally serve both the goddess and the kingdom more actively. Anyways I thank you Belgo for listening to me and helping secure that people are not getting between cross fire. We will come when dusk settles in. The knights who are walking in are the former king's knights, before protectors came to influence. But I hope you can keep it closer on your chest this detail, as I do not want protectors hearing about old knight's return as that would cause uproar among followers of protectors and protectors themselves which would distract me and my resources in time when I need focus on dealing with revolt army. I also fear if protectors would learn both this and also fact that Asmodeus is manipulator behind the revolt....they may convert to side of the revolt to seek accomplish what Asmodeus wants if they haven't already served him since beginning."
