Several men flanked their King as they caught the looks and especially when Rudy and his group came out from the building. Faye stayed a step behind Ricardo but close, none the less.
Ricardo watched Rudy and his men stalk towards them, looking as confident and proud as ever. |

Rudy's jaw clenched as he immediately recognized the man. He stopped a good distance away, but not too far away to diminish his intimidation factor.
"I see you've crossed the sea to our village. What brings you here?" Rudy called. |

Ricardo gave almost a snide smile as he looked at the man. "I've come to offer a hand. I offer supplies and food, in trade for wives for my men."
Faye pulled a face from where she was, fingers lightly clasped in front of her. |

| "That's an interesting trade, however, you will find no wives or otherwise here for you." Rudy said back, trying not to act out on his repulsion for the king's idea. |

| "And what is to stop me from taking the women who are here? Your children as fighters?" The king taunted with a small snide smile still, rubbing it in that they had killed so many of their men. |

| "I don't wish to shed blood here, so I beg that you leave before I take the matter personally in my hands." Rudy said, placing his hand on the hilt of his sword then. |

"As I recall from my men telling me before- you are not much of a fight. I'll be seeing you again." The king promised. "Faye, to the carriage."
Faye glanced up before giving a little curious glance at Rudy. |

| "You certainly will." Rudy quietly hissed to himself as he took his hand from the hilt, settling it clenched at his side. His gaze flickered from the king's retreating back to the girl who seemed to be staring at him as she retreated. He furrowed his brows at her. What was she to the king? |

Faye watched Rudy curiously still before jolting slightly when Ricardo called for her sharply and went to hurry over and into the carriage, unable to help another small glance.
"That's the Kings Ward, there." one of Rudy's men mumbled to him, frowning himself. |

| "And how much does the king hold her dear?" Rudy asked in a murmur himself. |

| "Quite." He murmured in return. "It's rumoured that he plans to marry her himself soon." |

| "I see...so maybe we should take what's precious to him for what he's done to us, hmm?" Rudy whispered back. "Gather the men, be discrete. Have someone follow the carriage, find what route they intend to take so we can plan a little...meeting elsewhere." |

| The man, Arlo, nodded to him and went to discretely as possible talk to the other men and follow along with the quick plan and soon someone left to track the carriage. |

| Rudy waited until the carriage and the rest of the traveling caravan were out of sight before going to return to the main lodge where everyone had been meeting earlier when the wicked Irish king arrived. There, he was met with several men, some of whom were carrying their own weaponry as well as pieces of his own. They helped him don his leather armor and helped him load up his sword and such before Rudy looked for Arlo. |

| "One of the men returned, said they're saying the southern route." Arlo told him, pulling on his leather gloves. |
