*The Verge of War* A Medieval Rp

Luckily it seemed that what Fawn had just said had gone right over Edmunds head. Alfric silently followed them out into the (kitchen?).

(Kitchen corner)

Fawn touched Edmund's arm lightly to get his attention. "If we could make this brief, I'd be most grateful. The stone floor wasn't particularly kind to me or James," she said quietly.
Edmund hadn't been able to see well the state the two were in due to the cellar shadows, but now he could see they both looked exhausted and were rather scratched up. "Would you prefer to freshen up first?" He asked concernedly.
Fawn shook her head. "No, I can wait," she smiled softly. She sat down on one side of the wooden table, he on the other. Edmund turned to Alfric. He wanted to talk to Fawn more for surely there was more to the story, but for now he wanted to figure out who James was exactly. "Tell me, James, how you came to be here? I can't recall any James Cormacks among my acquaintances, but it may just be slipping my mind right now," he said.
 
Alfric sat down between the both of them and rested his arms on the table, wincing as he adjusted his right arm so that it lay crossed beneath his left. "I was hired to guard the good lady Fawn here." He said, sticking to his story. He cocked his head towards Fawn and tried to smile.

Edmund raised an eyebrow. Who on earth would of hired this guy to guard an assassin? Unless, of course, Fawn was supposed to or had done something g for the king tonight. He decided to just straight out ask. "Who hired you?"

Fawn turned her face away from them to hide her smile. Obviously neither of the two men could figure out who the other was.
 
Alfric coughed nervously and looked to Fawn for help, but he couldn't seem to catch her attention. "The king."

Fawn jerked up and shot Alfric a look. Edmund didn't seem to notice, at least if he did, he didn't let on. "And why did the king hire you?" He asked calmly.
 
(Girl, I'm all Apple. What the poop is a PC? :gig
They're both in the tunnel :smack )

"No, not at all," Will quickly turned his eyes to the ground, now intimidated even more by Alfric.
"Hey, are you all right?" Edmund asked concernedly.
Fawn laughed nervously. "Yes, I'm fine now," she said. She drew back when she thought about how dirty she probably was right now. "Did Alfric find you?" She asked.
"I don't know an Alfric, but a James Cormack directed me down here."
"Ah, yes, James," Fawn chuckled. "Is he here with you?"
(PC ftw)

"To guard Lady Fawn, Sir. As I said." Alfric replied cooly. He glanced at Fawn and frowned at her, subtly, so that Edmund would not see.

"Why would you need to guard Lady Fawn?" Edmund questioned him. He had hoped to catch Alfric off guard with his recent question.
Fawn stared at a knot in the wood, pretending to be distracted from the conversation.
