Jarde's investigation yielded some interesting discoveries. The lifeless body had a tattoo on its left shoulder, a boar with golden tusks and red eyes. A mark of membership, Jarde was sure. Still, he did not recognize the emblem but it was certain that this was no Thaln soldier. The young knight went over to the other corpses and found the same tattoos, but the oldest-looking bodies had clean shoulders which probably meant they were the Thaln defenders, long killed before Alette's arrival.

The other Iron Roses went ahead and investigated, and yielded the same results. But unlike Jarde, they recognized the boar emblem and confirmed that a mass infiltration took place. One that Alette and her forces so rudely interrupted. Jarde was kind of impressed at these boar mercenaries for theamount of effort and care they put to kill and replace an entire fort's worth of soldiers. Still, that begs the question: Why?

While the other Iron Rose Knights talked to Alette the Shark, Jarde approached Captain [u]Fanilly[/u] while watching Sir [u]Fleuri[/u] head deeper into the fort. "[color=yellow]While we're still not sure what Sharky's here for, we do know that these boar guys she killed are up to no good since it looks like they tried to replace the troops stationed here.[/color]" He gave his thoughts on the matter. "[color=yellow]As to why they would do this,[/color]" He sighed before continuing. "[color=yellow]All the possibilities I can think of are... pretty bad.[/color]" With Fort Daelantine directly connected to the capital, Jarde feared the worst-case scenario.

"[color=yellow]What're your next orders, Captain?[/color]"
