Stephan stopped to catch his breath, and cursed under his breath "Fast, that one" He made his way back to camp, wondering if mathias was alright.

Aria awoke from her long sleep in her tent. She could tell something was wrong. She hated sleeping in, and she was angry that nobody had woke her up. She stepped outside to see the group of Heroes all fully awake. She held her skirt and ran to them. "Bloody hell! None of you even bothered to wake me up? What's happened?"

"To awaken a sleeping women without permission... would be madness." Sevils feeble attempt at humour was rather strained, even more so because of the seriousness of the situation. " Let us be off, we have no time to lose."

Garland allowed himself a smile at Aria's reaction to what had occured, and Sevilles comment on it.

"Are we still heading to the Gypsy camp? We could rouse a small militia there, that would be helpful, that is if any of them have experience, in which case we can simply co-ordinate them, I have a crazy plan forming in my head involving a cullis gate and Balvarines, and the only bad part I see is a lot of soldier casualties." Garland paused. "No that would result in will user genocide, they being the only ones that can do such a thing, also the Balvarines would have to be trained by which time the king will hace died of natural causes anyway."

Garland noticed the group giving him an odd look.

"Come on, it had potential..."

Aria rolled her eyes and smiled at Sevil's comment, jokingly pushing him. But she became serious again after Garland's words. "Let's stick to the plan involving the Gypsies. They're tough and know how to fight. I have my blade, and I have my rifle. This is all I need. I'm ready when you are."

"I'm fine with the plan, frankly,I'd just like to get moving. The defeat the soldiers suffered, coupled with our escape, will attract attention to say the least."

"So, are we using the cullis gate or sneaking out of the city?"

Sevil bounced back after the small push with ease, saying " Garland, do you know sufficient ways to program a Cullis Gate? I do, but I can not do it alone. If you do, then I vote for using the gate. If not, sneak."

Matthias slowly sat down.
"Anyone have a healing potion?" Matthias asked painfully. "Where is this Cullis Gate again, Garland?" Matthias coughed, and stood up slowly.

"I haven't got anything, you might have to make do with bandages and casts for now, also the cullis gate is underneath the burned down blacksmiths. If we were to sneak you out we could pass you off as an injured soldier, i'm not sure if using a cullis gate with a wounded man would be a good idea, nobody can really understand a cullis gate."

"Okay, we better get moving, the guards will surely come back. Lets pack up our things, we will leave in an hour. Aria, i trust you can get us there?" Matthias slowly stood up, and pulled a few bandages, and covered his wounds. He wiped off his face from the blood, and looked a little better. He looked around carefully.

"Me and Sevill will use the cullis gate in such a way that it will be useless in the future after it been used by us, if the empire finds it, we will be at a disadvantage." He montioned to Sevill "With me if you will." He began to walk to the blacksmiths quickly with his hood pulled up mixing into the crowd.

"Okay, i'll meet you guys in Bowerstone then. Good luck." Matthias nodded to them. "Anyone want to come with me?" Matthias asked, before packing his things into a small pack.

Stephan looked looked around his belongings, there wasn't a lot to take that was usable, but he packed it all and went outside to hear Matthias, "I'll come, we could get stuff done faster"

"Okay, Stephen, then we go. Come on, it won't be long. Everyone else, i'll meet you guys at the clock tower in the morning two days from now. From their, you will have a small militia at the ready. Stephen and i will find rebels, and group them up. When we have a small army, we will attack. Stephen, lets go." Matthias stood up, and holstered his sword. He began to walk off to Bowerstone, with Stephen close behind. The soon arrived in the Bowerstone, and the sun was starting to set. When they arrived, numerous people stared at them closely.
"Think they're rebels?" Matthias asked Stephen. "Lets go and rent some rooms, i'll pay." Matthias handed Stephen enough for a room. Matthias walked into the nearby inn, and rented a room for the night. He lay down on his bed, thinking about what would happen in the next few days.
