Shall we go?....
*He smiles at Philomena*.
The journey will take a day or two.... We need to get moving....

Let's ride as swiftly as we can... the more distance I put between myself and Stormrock the better!

*Princess Philomena arrives with her entourage and the. Wounded men. The captain of the guard comes up and has a hurried, whispered conversation with the mermaid who turns white.*

*Philomena beckons Vortigern over and speaks to him in a low voice*
Lady Niara has committed suicide. It seems Lord Thranmere has gone into a depression over her treason and death, he even blamed poor Derias for allowing her to take her own life. What a sorry end to her story, I gad hoped she would see the error of her ways.
*She gazes into Vortigern's eyes and smiles fearfully*
I must go to Darl's chamber... I.. I... Please guard Regar for me and make sure the others are treated as guests not prisoners. As soon as I can I will return to my rooms and send for you.
*She shakes her head*
Don't worry, I will be fine... just look after Regar.

Niara is dead?.... It won't be long before Thranmere follows his niece.
*He smiles*.
The news is good... Suicide?
*Vortigern chuckles*.
The Kanarans won't believe that.. They'll be arranging Thranmere's suicide just as quickly I'm sure...
*He reaches out his hand, but draws back*.
Princess.... The Thranmere's are finished.... You're in more danger than you imagine...

*Philomena bites her lip*
I know what danger I am in... but if I leave Darl, he will hunt me down. My life would be more miserable than it is now.
*She sighs*
Darl must act now, if he is to survive there will be a purge. Many will die... if he does not survive, there will be even more bloodshed, including mine.
*She smiles faintly*
Unless my father finds an even more bloodthirsty husband for me...

*Vortigern's voice becomes a whisper as he looks around the stables, Hawk and the others are too busy assisting the wounded to listen to the quietly conducted conversation*.
Princess we should leave here.... How will it be better if you stay? You owe the grimnians nothing, and Carados even less... Let them wade up to their armpits in their own blood, but not yours...

I can't... where would we go?
*She trembles*
There is no place I could run to where Darl would not find me. He would torture you to death and do worse to me than he does already.
*A tear rolls down her face*
Besides, what would happen to Regar if I absconded? Perhaps... perhaps if we wait for him to recover then we can think about leaving on some pretext.

*Vortigern looks over his shoulder and watches as they carry Regar away on a stretcher*.
Regar's a knight, if he doesn't die here, he'll die in some other battle....
*He talks softly*.
The White Scorpions, way up in the mountains... They'd take you in... You could hide up there for months.....
*He smiles*.
I'd rather give Darl a hunt, than be slaughtered here in this courtyard... Now Niara is dead there's no telling how deranged he'll become....

Vance... the most noble man I have ever met.
*Philomena smiles sadly*
Yes, he probably would offer me shelter and pay for it with the slaughter of him and his companions. Your sister included. I cannot ask him to make such a sacrifice. The Grimnians need people who still fight for the greater good.
*She strokes Vortigern's cheek gently and sighs*
I cannot ask you to make such a sacrifice either... It would be for the best if you left. Darl will be in an uncertain mood and I do not know if I will be able to shield you from his anger. While I go to his chamber, you can slip away unnoticed.
*Her hands tremble as she lifts the locket that is around Vortigern's neck and presses it to her lips. *
Just remember... remember...that I..
*The mermaid cannot finish her sentence and turns to walk away. *
