"See, the thing is, I'm considerate. I might be up all night in here but some people might want to sleep. Don't forget the Archon factor," Linx remarked, grinning. He attached the CAR's shoulder strap and subsequently used it, standing up so he could sling it correctly.

So you are not mysterious, but considerate. It makes sense now. *Lore grinned a wry grin* Well, then. You have your weapon. Are you ready?

"I think that's all I'll need. Let's go already." Linx was eager to get off the topic of Archon, for quite a few reasons. He headed towards the door.

Very well. So, to the flatlands was where we decided? *Lore followed Linx, ready to see some action. She figured that a battle or whatever else they would find would be an excellent welcome to the Fort*

"Flatlands, yes. Just a quick sweep, see if we find anything." Linx shut the door behind him and started back up the hallway.

Well, let's go. No sense waiting any more. *She drew out her sword and followed*

Linx headed out the Barracks' doors, then soon out the gates. "Gotta be careful. Vermin can capture unwary patrollers pretty easily. I mean, just this week..." His thoughts strayed to Archon and what had happened to him. The worst part had been rescuing him.

Oh yes, I know what can happen. I gather from your words that somebeast was attacked while on patrol? Well, we must exercise utmost caution while we are out there. We shouldn't become overconfident or foolhardy.

"Considering who it was..." Linx stepped over the fort threshold and out into the world. "I have reason to be careful now. They can do anything they want to you if you're captured."

Do you speak of Archon, then? In any case, everyone should have reason for caution. Vermin can be dangerous. I would pity anybeast who ended up caught by them. *even as she spoke, Lore's eyes were surveying their surroundings, in case there chanced to be one of whom they spoke lurking in the area*

Linx was doing the same. "You know, there were over fifty of them. Not one of them went without a piece of Archon." He had to turn his safety back on. The very thought of it tightened his fists.

Fifty of them... Against one? Not what I would call fair odds. Or were there others around? And how is Archon faring after that battle?

"It was no battle. They captured him. And I got him back after several hours. What they did to him within those several hours, nobody deserves." His knuckles went white from his grip on the CAR in his paws.

An ambush. How despicable, yet so typical of vermin. *Lore ground her teeth in anger. Vermin.. She loathed them. She had had her share of encounters with them, and she despised every last one. The thought of an ambush made her grind her teeth even more* Despicable wretches! *She growled*

"From what he's told me, they disarmed him, held him at swordpoint and someone knocked him out with a bludgeon from behind. Then he woke up bound between two trees. Things got progressively worse." Linx scanned the region for the umpteenth time in the past minute. "I don't think they were looking for a battle. They were looking for a nice, young beast to wreck. They got one."
