-Did you hear that uproar at the keep last night?

-Course I did, everyone did, and down at the docks, and at the city gates

-I heard some mercinaries from Four Corners snuck in and killed someone. Thats what our Anne said, and she heard it stright from that lad she's been seeing, Walt, or Watkins, or whatever his name is. He works at the keep don't you know, so he must know!

-Four Corners? What would they be doing sneaking in? Nah, it was the White Hallers, come to continue their war by assassinating the Viscountess.

-But her Ladyship isn't in town! How can they kill her if she isn't here?

-Well -they- didn't know that did they! Besides, our Eric said there was ships gone from the harbour, so it -must- be White Hallers

-You've had too much wine old friend. Them Ducal lot that fancy themselves to be Kings and Queens. It ain't right. I bet they were after them kids she has kept safe. Besides, its not only White Hall that have ships.

-Not very safe by the sound of it.

-Shhhh! Here come the guards again. One's bollocks they look angry. Must be serious! Can you hear what they're saying?

-Not clearly, but if you shut up that might help!… Hmmmm… Something about them ships heading south… they're cursing someone… an old man? And ropes… ropes left dangling from windows in the keep.

-So a break out then, must be the kids, who else could it be

-Good job her Viscountness isn't here then, I don't want to be within a hundred miles of her when she finds out those Princelings have slipped through her grasp! Who do you think gets to be the one to break the bad news?
