Chapter 38: Plan to save
Hex looked at the four people from the Northern Hawks faction. He came with Hestia to the location given by Althea.
To his surprise the other party came with all their Knights. This made him wonder whether they were too trusting or too confident.
Contrary to the Hawks they had left Oron close to the Squires and Adgar was hidden in the darkness of the night, close enough to assist them if things went south.
They stood on a rock filled cliff, which was a good vantage to keep an eye out on their surroundings whilst keeping their presence hidden.
The Hawks were all wearing their robes with their emblems sewn onto it. The coldness of the night didn't seem to bother them.
"So, why have you called us here?" Hestia asked once they sat between the rocks.
"The same reason why you have agreed to come, I suppose," replied the female Knight of the opposite team.
'She should be Lady Briella,' Hex thought as he observed the Knight. She was a head shorter than Althea and in her late twenties.
She was not as beautiful as Althea but her allure lay in her voluptuous curves and sensual lips. Her voice was tantalizing as well.
"A Squire from our camp attacked you?" Hex cut in, unwilling to go back and forth with pointless discussions.
Before Briella could reply, Althea nodded. "And someone of ours attacked you guys?"
