[center][sup][@Bright_Ops][/sup][/center] "Difficult dec-Master Grindan, she is a child!" blustering Ingo, who had visions of grandeur just moments ago now was flustered over how this good for nothing brute considered his neice to be an [b][i]able[/i][/b] candidate, it was preposterous. Malon was not as concerned with the current situation as she was where her father was but at the back of her mind she had doubts she could run the farm by herself. Ingo was a harder worker than his brother and although he felt like he deserved more his brother was content to run the ranch at his own pace. "As it stands we are struggling what with there being no meaningful commerce with the castle-" he had to restrain himself as he remembered that this man was indeed an executioner, who could break his scrawny little neck if he wanted so with a shallow gulp and a shaking breath he continued "I-I am just saying that times are hard right n-now. A child cannot balance the books." Ingo pat his young neice on the head before continuing saying "You see, as her relative I should be responsible for everything. As the only responsible adult around here anhyhow." he put a bit of emphasis on responsible, grumbling something about his lazy oaf of a brother.

They wore and carried the armor and weapons of hylian knights. They were strong, their skeletal hands gripping his arms behind his back as they lead him forward towards the gate to the ranch "Let me go!" he began to cry out, only to be cut short by one of the monsters pulling out a dull blade then he shut his mouth "Pl-please don't kill me.." it didn't understand his pleas only understood that the fat big nosed man had stopped struggling and continued leading him up towards the ranch.
