Once outside, he gestured to his men, adjusting his pants as he said, "Should we go to speak int he back." Then he gestured to Lily. "Any news can be said in front of her. My wife doesn't leave my side."
The man nodded, and gestured for them to follow, and once in a small back room without a window, they revealed, "From the south, troops are coming. They're the Grand Duke's men, and it's hard to tell if they'll know what has happened to Fort Dhagh, and if we can bypass a battle out of their ignorance. Apparently, there are rumors your sister-"
And at the mentioning, Blaith's eyes widened.
"Kella?" And he stepped forward, demanding, "Where is she!?"
The man was taken back, but hesitated not to reveal, "Towards the river west of here. It was said she was nearly captured at the village a quarter mile from this town. If we were to guess correctly, this is a band of soldiers who are hunting after her."
Blaith went cold... quiet. It didn't lost long, when he finally commanded, "Then we will stop them- slaughter them where they are."
"My lord?"
"They're the enemy, and we can't let them get to my sister. A thousand men would die first."
