Thomas laughed as Jezin quickly replied with the exact location, and sure enough, there she was. Thomas smiled as he looked over at Sophia, Gareth, and what appeared to be a lady-in-waiting, "You're a good protector, Jezin." Thomas commented, as he turned his attention back to Jezin. Thomas was reminded of his time serving Aripert, Bard's older brother and Arduin's younger. Aripert had a habit of constantly going about business without alerting the Order to his whereabouts. It was a handful, as the Order often found itself scrambling to locate the King. The King's natural ability to slip through the watchful eye of the Order was impressive, and challenged Thomas in more ways than one. Bard was more cooperative, though. At least, as far as Thomas could tell. Bard seemed to value the opinion of Sir Redwyne, and cherished his protectors, "I'm going to go change out this coffin they call armor." Thomas spoke, as he shifted uncomfortably in his protection.
