Finding the Templars responsible for the attack on Ruinil was simple enough. Not many could keep secrets from the knight-captain, especially if she'd give them her famous death stare. It wasn't so much a hateful or angry look but rather a stern and cold stare which lacked humanity in it. One could not guess as to what the knight captain was thinking as her face did not show any inclination to any particular punishment. After lining the guilty Templars beside each other, Evelyn gave each of them one final look over before rendering judgement. Some were sorry for what they did, that much could be seen on their face. Others felt angered that they were being punished for attempting to rid the world of demonspawn, thus fulfilling their duties. And others simply were afraid of what was to come. [color=fff79a]"You all stand before me, guilty of assaulting a fellow Templar. If any wish to appeal, now is the time"[/color], immediately following her statement, a small number of Templars stood forward to explain their case in the hopes of being showed mercy. Evelyn took their words into consideration but it was the ones who remained silent which caught her attention. They were the same group who felt justified for their actions and so Evelyn knew what would be done. [color=fff79a]"Those of you who've come forward, you shall aid the townsfolk for an entire month. During such time, you will be demoted to Initiate. Those of you who yet still stand firm with your actions, protocol dictates you be expelled from The Order. As this is wartime, we cannot afford to lose any men. Since you lot wish so desperately to fight the enemy, you will be sent on scouting band skirmishing missions on the front lines and further for also a month. Should you abandon The Order, you will be branded criminals. Am I understood?!"[/color], Evelyn's words did not fall on deaf ears as the reactions of the guilty showed they were devastated. With that bit of business taken care of it was time to set off for the Kest Hive. Evelyn walked the battlements of the castle, looking for Bartuc and Ruinil she hoped that they were ready for battle by now. Along the way the captain looked over the wall to notice a dead dog beside the walls and footprints in the snow. [color=fff79a]"First Templars, now dogs? This lot is not quite right in the head"[/color], Evelyn thought to herself as she considered what she'd have to do now. Continuing along the walls she came upon Bartuc and Ruinil who seemed to be a moment away from kissing. However it did not come to the captain what was happening until she had already spoken, [color=fff79a]"Bartuc, the group is about to depart for the hive. Are things here settled?"[/color].
