[HEADING=2]The Castle[/HEADING]
Ro found several items of interest as he patted down the Bokoblin: an empty bottle, two bombchus, some deku nuts, a dagger, a grappling hook, a firework, a large sack and a half-dozen small silver keys. Along with the pair of machetes.
"Fairness doesn't extend to assassins." Impa said.
"Aw come on! I haven't killed anyone
yet." the Bokoblin replied. "In fact, that guardsman killed me. If anything you should arrest hi-ahhhhhhh! Ouch! Ouch!"
Impa reached down and grabbed him by his
bunny hood. He yanked on one of the ears, causing the Bokoblin to wince and cry out in pain. "Hmm. That's odd. It won't come off. And pulling it seems to hurt him." She released her grip and turned back to Ro. "We're going to take him down for interrogation. I expect he'll be having company too. Those Dinolfos outside the palace were mopped up rather quickly. And Commander Sigrid has likely taken many prisoners."
Her eyes wandered over both Lynd and Ro. "I will be carrying out the questioning. I'd like the two of you to assist in doing so. Although, specifically, I'd like you to assist in dragging that miserable creature downstairs. These old bones aren't fit for heavy lifting." A small chuckle could be heard from behind that hood.
[HEADING=2]Market Street[/HEADING]
Commander Sigrid continued to patrol the streets. The looters had vanished already, but she still needed to secure the perimeter. Her cold eyes continued to scan the marketplace as she marched forward. She came to a halt when she thought she saw something;
the form of a bokoblin creeping in the shadows.
She turned around, sword ready as she prepared to investigate. But then a looter came laughing out of an adjacent alley, a toothy grin on his face and a mountain of fireworks in his arms.
The looter froze, turned around and began running after he spotted Sigrid. She gave chase, not wanting to risk hitting explosives with an energy beam. Her knights abandoned the marketplace and moved on to make sure the Lanayru Gate was secured.
[HEADING=2]The Castle[/HEADING]
There were thirty-five people seated outside the castle dungeon. The group consisted of: Sorti, Bannog, Hyoko, Ragnar, Ingo, Erryn, Erryn's entire crew, the mercenaries, three Dinolfos, Valentine, Hogan and the pink Bokoblin with the bunny hood.
Most of them were not bound to their seats. Those who were tied-up included any Dinolfos who wasn't Ragnar, Hogan, the Bokoblin and a rather bruised Ingo. Valentine was surprisingly not bound to his seat, and unlike Ingo had apparently received treatment to his injuries. Although not bound, Ragnar was seated alongside the other Dinolfos who shot him hateful glares. All three of them had
bandages and torn cloth wrapped around various parts of their limbs.
Eventually a hooded figure with red-eyes stepped into the room, followed by
a pair of Hylian men. Impa held in her hands one of the
crappy-looking brainwashing masks and the
Mask of Steel. She stared at both of them before lifting her gaze to the ragtags lined up in front of her.
"Well?"
Dozens of voices rang out at once. "Knight-Commander, I simply taking a walk along the plaza when I saw this silver-scaled Dinolfos attempting to steal the
Sacred Stones!" said Valentine. "He was being assisted by a brigade of pirates and mercenaries and other such scum. I attempted to stop them, but they beat me to the ground and tried to burn me to death!"
"I've got a better question. What did the guardsman say before he stabbed the blin through the heart?" the Bokoblin said, grinning stupidly. "'I am placing you under
cardiac arrest'!
"DEATH TO THE FALSE GODDESSES!" "LONG LIVE GANON!" "KILL THE SILVER! KILL HIM!" the Dinolfos shouted.
Hogan, still out cold, continued to snore.
