Of Beasts and Knights

Heigen: "She had a disappointing amount of blood, even hung from her ankles with no head."

henry sighs and dismounts

Rosa: pretty sure most people have the same amount of blood in them

*Balendin watches*

Heigen: "Nah. Big guys have more."

the demigryph is eyeing the border prince rather angrily

Rosa: fair enough. So big guy, still want to chop me up like you did before?

Balendin: Your Gryphon looks rather angry

"He always does that, don't mind him"
*DEMIGRYPH GLARE INTENSIFIES*

B: "Right" *Nods and approaches Henry*

Heigen: *Sidelong glance at thorgar.* "Uh. No."

Rosa chuckles

*demigryph growl*
Henry: *strokes the beast's 'main'* down girl.

Heigen: "uhh... yeaaaaah."

Rosa: something wrong big guy?

B: *Removes his helmet and stops about halfway to Henrys group*

Henry also approaches, his men staying back

B: What is it you want to talk about?

"I'm informed you've been hired to defend this place from the beastmen?"

Heigen: *sidelong glance at thorgar*

*Thorgar smirks, and walks into the city.*

B: You are correct.

Rosa: *still walking* so what happens now?

Henry: you experienced with fighting the beasts?

B: Experienced enough, don't have the men to fight an entire horde though

Henry: *smiles* then I do beleive the two of us could draw up a contract to deal with that problem.

B: I'm listening

"How would you feel about working for the empire?"

Thorgar: "We call in the fleet, and move on."

"To where?"

B: Depends on the job and the pay

"Job's simple. Help us kill beastmen and chaos followers."

B: And the pay?

"How much would you charge for such?"

B: The men get 10 silver per day. I have one hundred men, that's 10 crowns a day for them, 12 covers me and maintenance. So the price now depends on how long you want us"

OOC: 100 Brass coins = 1 Silver. 100 Silver = 1 Gold Crown.

"Suppose that depends how long they remain a threat. Alright, seems reasonable."

B: Good, I'll get a contract written out.

Henry offers his hand

*Balendin shakes it*

*Demigryph glares*

Thorgar: "To the next city."

"And we just keep going like that?"

*Eyebrow raise*

Henry: don't mind her.

B: Right

Thorgar: "Until the enemy attempts to fight us yes."

Rosa: fair enough.... do you hear that? *he can hear...marching?*

Henry: anyway. Lets get this contract sorted eh?

B: Yes.

*About half an hour later Henry has a contract infront of him, with Balendin standing next to him*

*contract reading montage*

Thorgar: "Heigen, rouse the men if you will."

Heigen: "Aye... TO THE WALLS! FOR THE GLORY OF THE GODS! TO THE WALLS!"

Rosa rushes off to find vorstan

*Vorstan is staggering out of the door as she arrives*

*Basically lots of contractual mumbo-jumbo, yada yada sign here*

*signing montage*

Rosa: hey.

B: *Smiles* "Thank you" *Takes the contract and blows on the ink before rolling it up and handing it to his assistant*

Vorstan: "Heeee-----yyyy. Give... me.... a... moment...." *he stands uncertainly in the street, leaning on his sword.*
