"Well, well, well. You've attempted to kill both of my commanding officers, who are also personal friends of mine. I can't let that go unpunished. You are also a threat to us...What to do...I should blow your brains out, but I don't feel you're worth the ammuntion. So...Maybe removing your right hand trigger finger...Maybe left, too. Yes. That's it.", Astrid was leaning on the post that made up part of the entrance to the tent, moving closer as she spoke. "Don't struggle, or I'll have the medico knock you out for a few hours. Which you would prefer, I suppose.". She was almost on top of him now, a fearsome edge to her voice. She removed the knife from the sheath at her side and moved Sothe's hand to a block she had set aside. It was a rather unremarkable block, with straps attavhed at the base to secure one's wrist. She moved his arm onto the straps, tighting the notches as she went. "This might sting a little. Not a sufficient payment for the pain you've caused us, but almost.". She brought the knife down, breaking through the skin,into the bone.

-Tell me if this is to much, or just plain not aggreable. It sounded fun to me...Remember, don't kill her!

Zandolin lashed at athelstanes leg with his knife and cut him down and stood up blood streaming down his face athelstane was on the ground looking at him. Zandolin pulled out his Mehjar and had it up to his head "We can use you, so you will not die here" he said "Guard!" he said "Yes sir?" "Take him to the dungeon" said Zandolin "Yes sir" the guard dragged athelstane to the dungeon "Medic!!!! I need a medic!!!!" he shouted

-Woah, woah, woah! Slow down! You didn't even PM me with what yo plan to do afterwards,or telling me you were going to maim him! Don't just take him hostage without my consent!
Or hack his legs off, for that matter! Ask first! So I at least have time to react!

Tears started swarming in Sothe's eyes. He couldn't deal with this pain, "Please! I swear. I have you depth to be payed...Just let me free..."

-Don't cut off his fingers or kill him, the torture is fine though. (Pssst Let him freeeee...I have a plan.) Zandolin. Let Athlestane free after he is healed, and he comes face to face again. Sorry for being pushy but I have a freakin awesome twist!)

Astrid heard Sothe's cry of pain, and saw the tears in his eyes. 'He was only taking part in a cause he belives in', she thought. She threw the knife down, sursing herself, and slid to the floor to rest against the walls of the tent. "Sorry, I was just so mad....Not at you. Myself. For not being there to help them...". She stood and re-composed herself. "Isamu! Get in here. This man has a nearly severed finger! Hurry up!". Then to Sothe- "I would release you, but I can't. I'll keep you in a tent with a minimal amount of guards. But please, please don't return to the fight. if you can't promise me this, I'll kill you right here.". Isamu enters the room, and starts laying out bandages and the like. "Wow, nice job, Astrid. Beautiful cut...", "Go boil your head.".

Or Zandolin could just go back and edit his post, to where Athelstane isn't even imprisoned.

"Thank you," He said hearing every word, and all the pain.

-Let me out sooner or later? (AWESOME PLAN!)-

Astrid left the room without a further word. Kimchee, Isildur. You're on guard duty. No worries, he'll co-operate. And don't hurt him too bad, he has potential.".


-Didn't you hear???? Minimun guarding? That means TWO dudes! You can kill them!

Sothe looked around. Smiled and looked around, he was in a small amory. He took to muskets and a sword. He cocked both the muskets and thought for a second. 'A gunshot would be heard...To much commotion...' He un-cocked the gun and took up his sword. He snuck up on the first gaurd and instantly stabbed him. The second one charged at him. Within few minutes he was out of the base, charging up the hill towards the castle.

-Waiting for Zandolin to let Athestane point a gun back at his face...-

-Could we please do this without violence? Maybe a "Look! He's behind you!" and throw a rock?

-Not exactly. Just come face to face, Sothe comes up and a little twist happens...Remember I do have TWO muskets...)

- Ah. Then let me replace Havel.
