The blonde thought it over with care before giving a small nod. "I believe we do." she agreed, shaking his hand. The money could easily be spared, these nobles were after power not wealth after all. "Understand that this does not mean you have earned complete freedom here. While I will provide you with better accommodations than that of the knights, I must have guards watching you at all times. I'm sure you expected such."

She then turned to the man who stood at the entrance way. "Fetch someone to treat the injured wench out there. I can handle things here." she ordered. He gave a small grumble and shot a final glare at Crow before turning to leave.

"Damn thief... Figures he would take advantage of this..." William growled, still furious over the current predictament. Even Penelope had to admit, he was beginning to get annoying. However, she saw it as a good chance since their guards seemed a bit amused with the knight's frustration.

"What did you expect? He has no sense of loyalty! He's a thief!" Penelope snorted and tugged lightly at the chains around her wrists. "Get over it already." 

William, in a bad mood as it was, sent a glare Penelope's way. He grumbled something under his breath but otherwise became a bit quieter now. "What we need to focus on is getting out of here ourselves..." she whispered to her comrade. 

Just then she noticed the guy from before walking up with what appeared to be bandages in his hand. He spoke briefly to one of the guards and then handed off the bandages to him before leaving. The guard then turned and headed up to Penelope wordlessly. The knight became tense watching him closely as he moved to patch up her injured shoulder. For now she didn't complain but occasionally winced as he worked. The guard was rather rough with his actions and merely walked back to his regular post once he was done.
