I guess I won because there were no other submissions, I sent it in because i thought it was due on that day xD. Wai you hatin’ on me Connie, I’ll be gentle.
“T’is Knight Banius Orbec, at your beckon,” Zaneck bowed before her. “You may keep this steed, I shall not be needing it any longer although I would advise you treat it with care. He gets feisty at various times, which you must then feed her.”
Zaneck bowed once more before circling around the corner of the castle, away from peering eyes.
Zaneck sighed, it looks like he wasn’t going to obtain any information any time soon. He decided he was too tired to go on and gave in, “Very well miss. If His Majesty is kind enough to let you stay in his room, I shall extend the same courtesy.” He whistled loudly and a large, brown steed arrived a moment later.
“However miss, would you be as so kind to tell me your name?” he asked, hoping that it would allow his objective to come to an end easier.
“I have no obligation to tell you what order the King has given me,” Zaneck replied, he quickly made up an excuse to quicken the pace. “I decided to return to the castle grounds two hours prior to the given time. The King is usually attending to his own business at this hour and does not wish to be bothered by anyone. However, if he had let you stay in one of the guest rooms, you must have some pretty important information. Would you tell me what information you hold for him? I know that even if you had told him, he would only ask me to confirm it. Would you please tell me, if you will, to save the trouble of me entering and leaving the castle once again?”
(((OOC: Haha evil wench. xD; Haha, this is the 69th post in the RP)))
“Trespassing, why whatever do you mean? I see no trespassers here,” Zaneck nonchalantly said. “If anyone were to suspect another of trespassing, it should be me. You jumped down from one of the King’s quarters, which can only mean either one; you’re escaping from captivity, or two; you’re a thief trying to steal his jewels and riches for yourself and you’re making your getaway. It is most likely the first option, since you are carrying no bag of jewels or riches. As for me, I am a but one of the King’s private selection. Now tell me, what is this important ‘business’ you have with the King?”
Zaneck watched from behind the bush, the waitress was escorted inside by two other wenches. Shortly afterwards, Louis was also invited into the castle surprisingly. What kind of relation do these people have with the king? He decided to infiltrate the castle and find out. As he approached the castle, he heard a light, thudding noise around him and held his back to the castle wall, then he saw it was the waitress that he was tailing from before. She looked around as if she were lost and he decided to approach her.
“Being invited into the castle by the king and escaping from the balcony, that does not seem like appropriate behavior for a guest of the King,” he said as he approached her. “As far as I’m concerned, nobody is allowed to stay in the King’s castle as a guest unless they had something he wanted.”
Zaneck watched as their conversation had ended and as the waitress clambered upon Louis’s steed, which he considered quite odd seeing as Louis barely has enough to pay off his tabs before striking up a new one. From the rooftops, he trailed them, careful to make a careful quiet landing. After following them for a while, they arrived near the entrance of the castle. Of all the places to follow her to, this one?, the thought ran through his head as he looked down the side of the building. If he had jumped to the ground from that height, he knew he would surely lose his life. This was it, would he rather risk information on this waitresses true nature, or would he risk his life trying to get it?
He heard a loud banging noise and stood up to see the source of the noise, an old man was working on his roof tiling. He looked to the side of the building and behold, there was a ladder leading to the roof of this building. He had made his decision and didn’t waste a moment before acting upon it. He climbed down the ladder halfway before he got impatient and slid down the rest of the way. When he got down, he took off his leather glove and threw them in a random direction away from Louis and his friend. Just then, the door opened and in the doorway was none other than King Boggy(Bogdan? Boggy?). Now what connection did this mysterious waitress have with the King of this land? This was getting interesting and he didn’t want to miss a second of it.
Zaneck followed her closely and was ready to confront her if needed. He turned his head sideways, as if he were looking at the houses and stores but his eyes focused on the people behind him. He recognized two people, the first being Louis the village idiot. Usually, he wouldn’t be sober at a time like this but he brushed past Zaneck in a moment. The second was the drunk man from before ogling at the same waitress from before, but there was always a chance he could’ve been after him. Before long, he realized that this path was a quick path to the castle. This aroused his suspicions even further and his need for information overtook his mind.
He looked around while quickening his pace as close to his target but as far from the young, drunk man. Soon enough, he found an alleyway which was small enough to walk into and strode into it. He swiftly climbed up using the windowsills as support for his hands, leapfrogging from one window to another and before long, he had reached the roof. From there, he looked down and watched as the village idiot and the waitress commence with their conversation, ready to continue moving as soon as their speech was ended.
