*Two men huddle in the dark by a carriage*

You did well Libson, a very smooth job. I've got to admire how quickly you can gag and tie a target, your skill truly shines. Return the carriage to your master and make sure you take a different route.

*Addle returns to the shack door and smiles into the lit room.*

Come come my lady, no need for tears. You'll ruin your pretty make-up. Be a good girl and I'll treat you well, for you are a very important person.

*Philomena is tied to a chair and gagged. She sobs as she tries in vain to struggle against the ropes that bind her.*

Do stop struggling Princess, you will rub yourself raw and it will do no good.

*He smiles and strokes her face*

You really are beautiful, the reports do not quite do you justice. Even here tearstained and terrified, I do not think I have seen a lovelier face.

And such wonderful golden tresses, thanks to your mermaid blood of course.

*He sighs and touches her soft blonde hair*

Now can I offer you a tea or a glass of wine?

*Philomena glares at him and continues to struggle futilely. Her wrists are beginning to bleed.*

*Gessop Addle notices Philomena has given up and is sitting with her head bowed dejectedly.*

You have calmed down now, good girl. I was beginning to think I might need to drug you again.

*He takes a bowl of warm water and washes away the sticky tear stains*

There's no need to be upset, we're not going to hurt you. His lordship has great plans foe you. I'm sorry this is not the nicest of accommodation, but we need to let things settle down before you are smuggled into the Citadel.

Would you like a glass of water?

*The mermaid nods and he fetches a glass*

I'll take your gag off, but I warn you not to scream. There's not a dwelling for miles around and all it will do is make me angry.

*He takes off the gag and holds the water to her lips*

Please...

*Her voice is croaky*

Please just let me go.

*Kalvos rides into the camp and leaps from his horse and splashes down into the murky water. He draws his swords and charges forward waving the blades through the misty air. He chases down the kidnapper and shoves him into the marsh water, Kalvos gazes at Philomena*.

I'm here angel. No one will harm you now.

*He looks down at the old man and dunks his head beneath the surface*.

You'd better explain yourself and explain yourself quickly. If not I'll drown you....

Kill me and make it quick!

*Gessop quivers.*

If I am caught by the Duke of Death or the Fox I face a death by torture.

Kalvos no! Don't kill him, he is the only person who can tell us who is behind this.

*He looks up at Philomena and shakes his head, he returns his gaze to the prisoner*.

You see, the Princess shows you mercy.... You chose the wrong side. That's her way.... But this is mine.

*He dunks the man under the water again and then pulls him back up*.

Who are you?!

*Kalvos dunks the old man under the water a third time*.

You face a grim death at my hands too, so tell me who you are?!
