If Fionn was surprised that Renar had even [i]heard[/i] what Maletha had said to him earlier, he didn't show it. [color=#008b8b][i]"Stalwart[/i] ball knight,"[/color] he corrected, doing his best to maintain a perfectly straight face—at least the humour would hopefully be to the princesses' benefit. Assuming they didn't find the ability of two experienced veterans to crack jokes so shortly after the shock of a sudden attack utterly offputting.

He turned away and stood back up, looking over to Adeforth. [color=#008b8b]"This necromancer already has us on the back foot. While we might have given them something else to deal with, we don't know the capabilities of any of their co-conspirators, or the fullness of their own. Anything we can do to retake the initiative is worth it, I think."[/color] He gestured over at the court mage. [color=#008b8b][i]"He's[/i] just finished strengthening the defenses, and could make illusions to cover our leave. If nothing happens on our way to Candaeln, that at least makes this place the perfect decoy after we've gotten out. Unless they're watching the exit or have everything between here and Candaeln crawling with undead and assassins, we should all be more than enough to escort the princesses to the rest of the Roses."[/color]

Assuming they agreed to it, of course, but allaying Adeforth's misgivings and giving Elisandre more information to consider should help in making the decision. [color=#008b8b]"I'll even take point if we go. Make sure the way is clear."[/color]
