-I halt my horse as a bandit steps out onto the road- Bandit: "Evening good sir! This here road belongs to us and in order to pass you must pay a toll!" -5 more bandits emerge from the trees.

Kris: *Quickly dismounts and keeps his sword in front of him, watching the surrounding assassins* Amateurs.
Assassin: Oh? But we've already destroyed your guards... *Snickers* Kris: But you showed yourselves... Bad mistake. *Rushes, stabbing one of the assassins, and quickly pulls his sword out, backhand slashing another assassin's chest*

-I laugh- "It's just soot." -A hawk land on my shoulder with a tiny key attached to its leg. I take it and toss it to her- "Here you are. I had a friend get the key for the belt."
