Thomas had made it to his lodgings, and successfully donned his armor. As the last Champion of the Order of the Thistle, and Sir Walden under investigation, Thomas would be Acting Commander of the Order of the Thistle until a voting could occur to name the next Commander. Thomas' snow white armor, along with the white cloak, and white eye wrap around the left side of his head, seemed to match fairly nicely. Thomas turned his attention to a mirror, and gently reached his hand up, and touched the eye wrap. The doctor had to remove the eye, leaving nothing but a black void. While it did not severely hamper Thomas' ability to fight, it definitely did not help it. After a moment, a knight of the Order knocked, and entered Thomas' room, seeming somewhat winded, "They are attempting to make a quick exodus before the ports close." The knight spoke, still panting. Thomas sighed, as he picked Harmony up from the side of his bed, and fastened it around his waist, "Gather Sir Bull, Sir Sven, and Sir Lucas. Have the horses readied at the rear of the Palace." Thomas commanded. The knight dutifully nodded, and left the Acting Commander of the Order. Thomas took one more long stare into the mirror, before turning to leave his room.

A knight of the Order of the Thistle entered the Great Hall, his head scanning the room, seemingly looking for someone. After a moment, he spied the person he was looking for. Gareth Harker. The knight made a bee-line for the young squire, ignoring the conversation he was apparently sitting out of. Without preamble, or pretense, the knight approached Gareth from behind, leaning down to make his mouth ear level with Gareth, "Sir Walden has cleared you of any suspicion, but he requests your presence whenever you can manage. He is in his small study, in the West wing of the Palace." The knight whispered, before darting off as quickly as he had shown up. The way the knight hurriedly left, without any response from Gareth, left the intentions of Walden needing to talk to Gareth up in the air.
