*moves a bit closer to Midnight so she can see his face a little better.*
"I passed through the villaage that exiled you a few years back and heard of you there."
"As for me....well I can see by your face you have already worked out I'm of mixed race."

Humph well that village is my past. I couldn't be what I'm not and they didn't like what I am.
*Thinks* Whatever that is.
As for being of mixed races and what you are must be hard to blend in. Especially when neither crowd is where you belong.completely. Because they won't except the whole you...no matter what they say and deny.

*There is the sound of footsteps and the door Walter had gone through opens wide. He walks through, putting something away. He looks up and sees the two still there, Midnight still bound and smiles.*
"I hope you two have been getting on jolly well, Good news Leytan, old chap, Mr.Hakonatu is most desperate to meet the young lady and has sent men to take her very quickly, they will be here in just a few hours. I haven't given them our position though, they're going to wait at the path to Wolfenden. I wondered if you could go meet them there?"

*Leytan looks at Walter, then back at Midnight.*
"I suppose, I'll make my where there. I'm leaveing this relm anyway so, I'll most likely meet them on my way out of town if you could go get my finaly payment, I'll be out of your hair."

"Why Leytan, old boy, I have it on me." *He takes out a sack of gold and hands it to Leytan.* "It's all there but you are welcome to count it, tell them where to find us then old sport, toodle pip!"
*Walter opens the door for Leytan to egress.*

*Takes The Bag Of Gold.*
"I'll take you at your word, This once."
*Turns back to Midnight, he see's a look in her eyes that was just short of pleeding him not to leave her here and begging him for help.*
"Sorry Midnight."
*Leytan turns and walks out of the door.*

*To Leytans retreating back.*
From one outcast to another Leytan....when my death reaches your ears..for it will I'm sure. May you see that a man who says he has morals and then turns back on them has no morals at all and is a outcast from his own soul.

*Leytan stops half way threw the door, he seems for a minuet to be in turmoil over what to do, he half turns to come back, but then quickly he shakes his head and departs, the door closes witha hevey thud and Midnight can hear his footsteps getting further and further away.*

"Well dear girl it's just you and me then, I hope you don't mind but without my 'muscle' then I'm a little less well defended so i'm going to have a quick drink."
*Walter takes out a hip flask and takes a deep sip from it before wiping his chin and putting it away. He is only half watching Midnight, the other eye is on the door in case Leytan really does have a change of heart. His grip on something in his shirt pocket appears to be tight.*

I'm not dear girl to you.
*Midnight is quite puzzled.*
*Thinks* If a man is not defended then why drink?
*Taking note that he isin't paying much heed to her or what she could be doing she truns one of her hands into a paw and uses the claw to cut through the rope.*

"Please Miss, don't think I am doing this to be unkind, Mr.Hakonatu will spare your life, he just needs an audience with you and you aren't exactly an easy person to get hold of. Eh, Rhiannon?"
*Midnight stops the clawing for a moment in shock at hearing someone else use that name. Walter gives a grin at having thrown her.*

Another person that knows my past eh?
*Midnight resumes clawing her way through the ropes.*
Well a traveller is never a easy person to catch up with. How can you be so sure that I won't be harmed?

"A good question, but I know for a fact that you are far more important to Mr.Hakonatu for him to wish to kill you. Please just calm yourself and don't worry, getting Leytan to help us bring you in was by far the hard part from your point of view dear, from now on in it gets a lot easier I assure you."
*The grip remains tight and Walter's confident, charismatic voice also remains faultless despite his eyes shifting nervously between Midnight and the door.*

Well surely he could of come to see me Rather than go through this. It doesn't make me want to see him.
*Pauses as she feels the ropes loosen enough*
Why look so worried?

"Well my dear, I trust Leytan enough, but something about the way he acted makes me worry he may put foolish concern ahead of his loyalty to his contract. Hakonatu does not wish to come here and when we tracked you down at last he would much rather speak to you on his 'home ground' so to speak. We thought that you'd be jolly difficult to speak with so Leytan was the best option."
