*In the smoky atmosphere the soldiers drink, smoke, play cobble sticks and gamble with dice. The men are a rough looking crowd, but jovial in nature. A wheeze of laughter echoes around the large room as the men joke and tell tales of old adventures*.

All stand for the saviour of Kanara... Darl Thranmere.

*Derias waits as Darl enters the room, watching carefully as the soldiers get to their feet*

My Lord, your men are here for you.

*Captain Grey salutes Derious and Thranmere. He turns to the men standing behind him*.

Form ranks. It's an inspection....

*Narvik and seven others form the front row, others soldiers gather behind, but shadows conceal their faces*.

The finest fighters in Kanara, with loyal hearts and iron fists.

*Derias smiles at Darl *

But you know the Princess, she is spirited and can be difficult... and her beauty can dazzle even the most hardened men. We need to choose those with the temperament to handle her with firmness but respect.

*He sighs *

And I suppose we cannot stop her from taking her own bodyguard?

So, what are we doing Sir?..... Gathering more scars?..... What will the chosen men be doing this time?.... Is it by choice my lord Derious?..... After all we serve the beauty....

*He grins*.

But lose our own......

Derious!.....

*He shouts*.

Tell them....

*He shakes his head and glares at Karn*.

Narvik......

*He points his finger at the man*.

You will do and die, if I say... That is your duty.... Philiomena will breed, that is her duty to me....

*He shakes his head and nods at Derious.

The soldiers must know their place...

Captain Grey, this insubordination reflects badly on you. See to it that Karn is disciplined and I expect that he will receive more scars by the time you have finished. If your men show such rudeness again you personally will be sent to guard the prison camps in the ice lands.

*He looks at the soldiers*

Darl Thranmere has a great honour for those that are chosen. Princess Philomena is to visit her father's castle, and those chosen will be her armed escort. No doubt you will be treated well by her family and on your return you will receive double rations and an extra three days of leave to spend in the nearest pleasure house.

*He turns to Darl and speaks in a low voice*

Are you sure this is what you want? Princess Philomena will not be able to bear you a son if she is absent from your bed. You had just started to get some obedience from her, if she leaves now then you may lose control of her forever... Father a child on the Princess and she will be bound to you by more than duty.

Derious.....

*Darl speaks in a low voice*.

This conversation is not for the barracks... Select three or four soldiers to travel with Philomena.... I know that Carados has made Philomena vow her loyalty to me... Before a child can be born I must win this war....

*He looks at the soldiers and raises his voice*.

We must win this war... And we will......

As you command... I shall choose the men and then speak to the Princess. I shall send her to your chamber to take her leave as no doubt you wish to say farewell.

*He walks up and down the line *

Jonas Creed... Ulrich Hawk... Raif Dreyfess... Arlan Lex... step forward.

*Derias looks at the four soldiers*

Swear on the bones of your grandfathers that you will protect the Princess with your lives. The glory and freedom of Kanara ia dependent on your success. Traitors will be dealt with in the usual way...

* The tall man looks over at Captain Grey*

If you have any doubts about these soldiers speak now.
