<strong>"I think you're just trying to grift my people, miss."</strong>Ooooooh snap! Cecilia did not go there! Her noble blood was getting worked up, and she went into serious business mode, as she nudged her mount forward to slowly trot about.<br/><br/><strong>"We will of course go to the fortress to take out the rest of these brigands, if only because we won't be safe until they're all gone. However, taking a fifty percent share of all the goods of the village and manor is not at all fair. You yourself claim blood to be your currency, and you seem to wish the fight more for your honor than anything else."</strong>A moments pause to let it sink in, before she raised a finger and continue.<br/><br/><strong>"We should ascertain how much they have left at the fortress, and not tried to send away to other places, before anything. In the end though, I'm still willing to give you fifteen percent of what we recover. The majority of the supplies and money needs to go back to repairing buildings and making the fields livable again, as well as hiring or training new guardsmen. Afterwards . . . there may be an opportunity for you and your remaining men to make significantly more profit, if it interests you. Either way, for the time being I just need to ensure that after Ser Aurich's supplies run out, my people still have a chance at surviving."</strong>
