He watched the lordling scurry out, before turning to Frost before he came back. "Is this normal for these kinds of 'negotiations,' or should I be impressed at his arrogance at trying to have the two Knights as his personal guards?"<br/><br/>He fully expected Frost to explode as she realized the two Courts had been played, and by a 'mere' independent lord. If she did, it would make the Summer Court's position that much more secure. He turned back to the lord, and raised an eyebrow. "I thought they were other lords in the area, but I guess if they are barbarians, I would be happy to box their ears and send them on their way. Lady Frost, would you care to join me? Mayhap a show of strength from the ramparts will see these knaves about their business. Oh, right."<br/><br/>He expertly yanked the arrow from the lord, and then applied a healing spell, before heading out to the manor wall to see what exactly the lord had managed to offend.
