The response of those around them had actually surprised Rhysln at first, though Nautica was under the impression it was exactly as it should be. Rhysln nodded to Jolu's words before cringing at Thom's choice of. The next thing she knew a sword was being held out to her and she couldn't help but smirk at Denemika's choice of words. She took the sword gladly, "He's in a robe already, so I suppose it'll have to do for now," she said before her attention was drawn to Radiant, her brow's going up at her speech but Nautica decided to pipe in at that point. "Can you hold off on being weird until we get out of here? That'd be awesome." Which earned her a twist of the ear from Rhysln. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Sister Radiant. Well, perhaps in a better situation it would be more so, but none the less," She nodded. She looked at Winter hearing her speak, giving another small smile hearing the bitterness to her words, "If I weren't going to have you, madame, you wouldn't be standing so close," she said but the commander butt in at that point. "We need to move. We're currently fish in a barrel," he said, cursing not having some sort of a large shield. He looked around for anything he could use before going over to a couple barrels of ale and yanking the lids off, "This is going to have to do, unless you've got a better suggestion," he added as he walked back over, handing one to each of the sisters. He had his armor on, so he wasn't worried about himself, but the royals were completely exposed. "It would be easier if we were to go through the alleys," Rhysln said quickly, "It funnels the enemies into a smaller scope and requires us to have less angles covered. Plus, part of the town backs right in to the woods and gets us out of the open this way," she said, looking to Glenn (who isn't actually a bishop, he was making a chess reference), hoping some of those strategy/tactic lessons had paid off some. "Here's what we'll do," The Commander said before looking towards Denemika and Alniyat, "If you two go out with these two," he looked towards Winter and Radiant since they were a little similar in size to the royals, "Using these two," he motioned between Jolu and Ilsibin, "And Blayze to protect them, these idiot assassins might just be thrown off enough to not catch us going down the alleyway. You," He pointed at Thom, "You can move ahead of us down the alley and make sure we take the safest routes. Do you two feel you need more protection? If so, then I will go that way, seeing one of us," he glanced at Glenn, "Will also make it more believable that these two are the queen and princess. We should probably find them some cloaks. Go ahead and get moving while I find these," he said to them and walked over to a coat rack, liberating some poor chaps of their possessions before walking over and handing it towards them. Rhysln and Nautica started towards the back of the tavern to take the alleyway. Nautica was grumbling about how Rhysln was armed but she was lacking anything. If she had a bow, she could at least be of some use here.
