[quote=Gerard Segremors][color=goldenrod]"Of course, Sir Jarde. I've got you. Though I would guess we might simply proceed on foot from here in the first place. We haven't much further we can ride."[/color][/quote]

"[color=yellow]Err, that's true.[/color]" Jarde sheepishly replied at the short-haired, amber-eyed knight. "[color=yellow]Still, you have my thanks for the offer, Sir Segment-- Segregate-- Segremors! Yeah, that's it! Sir Segremeors. You have my thanks, Sir Segremors![/color]"

[quote=Gerard Segremors][color=goldenrod]"First time?"[/color][/quote]

The young knight smiled and closed his eyes, letting out a sigh. "[color=yellow]Was it really that obvious?[/color]"

[quote=Renar Hagen]"First kill, eh? It was well done, Sir Jarde. One less highwayman raping and pillaging his way across the land. You've probably saved the lives of a good few travelers. And the maidenhoods of a village girl or two."[/quote]

Jarde was clapped in the shoulder by another knight, offering consolation. This one was looked more middle-aged, with black hair and blue eyes.

The young knight already knew he and the Iron Rose Knights slaughtered in the name of justice, and Jarde trusted [u]Fanilly[/u] to keep it that way. With a smirk, it was time for humor once more. Albeit, a darker one this time. "[color=yellow]Well Sir Hagen, I prefer to think these bandits are just innocent, desperate people driven to crime by circumstances beyond their control. It makes killing them more interesting.[/color]" He flashed a grin before looking at the corpses. "[color=yellow]They probably had a family. Probably had friends. Probably played around in grassy meadows. Probably admired the Iron Rose Knight, even. I wonder what they thought once they saw they were fighting us, their childhood heroes.[/color]"

"[color=yellow]I jest, I jest.[/color]" He told both [u]Renar[/u] and [u]Gerard[/u], stopping the joke before it got too far. "[color=yellow]Seriously though, Sirs, I'll be fine. Don't worry about me.[/color]" In truth, he was not but he preferred to discuss his feelings with someone as fresh as him rather than with grizzled veterans.
