Sir George was waiting on the hillside just south of the mountain range with a squad of men, half of them human, the other half dwarves. They were hoping to see the flare from Percy.
Sir George was lost in thought of everything that has happened today while he was on leave.
'I've never seen my Lord so shaken and angered. I wish I could have been more of a help. I should have watched Lady Rya.' Sir George said as he was thinking about what he would say to the prince.
"Look! The flare!" One of the men yelled as they saw the light coming out of the woods.
"Come! Percy needs our aid!" Sir George said as he started moving forward.
The rest of the men followed suit as they marched through the forest to where Percy was with Dalia, Nieren, and a Merc they captured.
"Glad to see you're still alive, boy. What did you find out?" Sir George asked with a smile as he looked at the Mercenary.
"We were able to ambush four Black Rose Mercenaries. We had no choice but to kill three of them. And we wouldn't have caught this one if it wasn't for Nieren." Percy said with a grin.
"Aye. You three did well. Let's bring this one to our Lord. I'm sure he'll get the information we need. If not, well, he's going to die." Sir George said with a smirk as he led the group toward the camp.

As they reached the camp they saw that most of Baron Zellin's soldiers had already gathered around Prince Quinus.
Quinus was talking with the Baron and Hajdah.
"So you were able to get 700 men together in two hours? That's amazing. I was able to get six of our mages from the guild, your majesty." Hajdah asked with a hint of excitement in his voice.
"I wish I could bring more men, but I fear that the Black Roses might be watching. I have sent an emissary to Kishin. I hope he can gather the remaining force needed to save Rya." Prince Quinus said with a sigh as he stared out at the camp. Then Quin noticed Percy, Dalia, and Nieren had returned with Sir George.
"My Lord! We have a prisoner," Sir George said as he stepped back.
Prince Quinus walked up to the man tied with rope. He looks like a normal human wearing the Black Rose uniform.
Quinus looks at the man and then turns to Hajdah.
"What do you know about him?" Quinus asks as he stares at the man.
"He's a squad leader. You can tell by the insignia on his chest. Other than that, I don't think he's a well-known Mercenary outside of being a Black Rose mercenary." Hajdah answered with a shrug.
Quinus walks over to the man and looks him in the eyes. Quin's golden eyes seem like they're glowing in the middle of the night.
"Who are you?" Quinus asks.
"Tch! ..." Dan clicks his tongue and doesn't answer.
"What is your name?" Quinus asks again with impatience in his voice.
"I'm not talking, Toothless Li- *PUNCH!* AAARRGG!!" Dan shouts as he falls to the ground after getting punched by Sir George.
"I don't know what compelled you to insult my Lord. But I will show you what happens when you keep disrespecting him." Sir George says as he pulls out his sword.
Dan is coughing before regaining his composure.
"You'll have to do better than that if you want info out of me," Dan growls.
