Subject The butler

Allistair shrugs dismissively. "Oh, these two? Hack and Ran. We've traveled together for the past couple of months or so. I thought the guard captain might be interested in a couple of sturdy men with experience. They know how to follow orders, and they can hold their own when things get dangerous. An ogre attacked us on the road a few weeks ago, and these two were able to take care of it. Anyway, after some lowlife tried to mug me the day after I got here, they've been kind enough to accompany me through the streets. I'm sure that the Sergeant recognized the look of a fellow experienced soldier." Allistair nods approvingly in the Sergeants direction. "We'll just wait in the next room like you said, but if you'd prefer they can wait outside. Or maybe the good Sergeant can take them to see the guard captain?"

Allistair starts to move toward the door, but hesitates slightly waiting for approval from the butler.
