The Right Direction

Balar slumped to the ground, he was losing blood and as he groaned in pain the axe fell from his hand. Tiella ran to his side sheathing her dagger even as Luna flailed about wildly at their would be captors, amazingly she was keeping them at bay.

“Balar Tiella snap out of it we have work to do” Luna snapped.

Tiella looked up from Balars wound and shook her head. She gestured to the surrounding bandits.

"Harlequin!" Luna cried out in desperation.

"Stop Luna." she cried, "If they wanted us dead then dead we would be."

Sigrid still holding her head from the crack that Luna had given her barked a laugh. "I might want you all dead yet." She motioned sharply and her people backed away."

Majvoc stood apart through all of this and had already handed his bow over to a particularly mean looking woman with fists as big as Balars. The two of them were chatting like old friends and the woman reached over and pinched his backside. He jumped and laughed swiping her hand away.

"Odins cock Majvoc are you actually flirting while I am taking you captive?" He simply shrugged and Sigrid strode over and punched him in the stomach causing him to double over, she then rounded on her woman,

"Igrine leave the man alone, you dont know where he has been." She looked down at Tiella then ignoring Luna for the time being,

"Can your man walk or do I slit his throat here."

"I can walk." Balar growled looking up and the over to Majvoc, "So you do have a name besides thief."

"Oh he has several." Sigrid cut in, "Now up you get and no tricks or we will fill you with arrows. You too heretic," She growled at Luna, "Take their weapons." She ordered.

"You can not have my staff." Luna snapped.

"I dont think anyone here would want to touch the thrice cursed thing," Sigrid replied, "You carry it and if you so much as think about using magic my girls here will fill you so full of arrows you could pass for a hedgehog." The bandits laughed and several knocked arrows and raised crossbows in anticipation.

"We march north." Sigrid ordered and the group began to move. Tiella propped up Balar and did her best to stop the bleeding as they walked. Luna walked at their side a worried expression on her face. Majvoc on the other hand walked a little ahead looking very much at his ease. He glanced back to them and flashed a grin,

"Well at least we are going in the right direction."
