Dane- But it’s urgent!

S.G. Lerena- I said not now *she opens a big door to the dining hall*

Dane- but-

King Windholm- Well isn’t this a surprise my Dear Daughter

(S.G. Lerena’s eyes are wide as she holds the door open)

Dane- *off to the side* The King is already here

(Ends on S.G. Lerena’s shocked face)

/////////////////Dread-Head\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\

(Opens up on King Windholm eating breakfast)

S.G. Lerena- *maintaining her composure* Good Morning Father may I ask what is the particular reason for this visit

King Windholm (Wind-hol-m)- Good Morning to you too my daughter and I don’t have a particular reason I just wanted to see my dashing daughter again *he says with a melancholic smile plastered on his face*

S.G. Lerena- Stop with the flattery, you have to have another reason for being here; like per se “The Vagrant”

(King Windholm’s melancholic smile turns scheme-ish)

King Windholm- And how could you possibly know that my daughter

S.G. Lerena- I was informed of said information from my butler who was informed by your right hand

King Windholm- *sigh* I really need to talk to Marcus about our conversations and how to keep them secret

S.G. Lerena- Please explain father why do you want to partake in the capture or execution of this lowly thief

King Windholm- Well since I heard that this “lowly thief” manage to escape and out maneuver my esteemed daughter and most if not all of her army, I just had to see this individual for myself

S.G. Lerena- You won’t really need to do that since I have the situation under control

King Windholm- Oh do you now? Then, pray tell, how long has this been going on for

S.G. Lerena- *reluctant* About 2 years at this point but I we got close this time

King Windholm- My my, 2 whole years and all you’ve managed to get is “close”

S.G. Lerena- Well we started to notice stuff missing the first few months then there was larger portions missing then some of my soldiers started getting glimpses and hearing footsteps from nowhere and now we finally got full conformation of this individual’s existence

King Windholm- It amazes me that he managed to do this for so long, either he’s that good or you and you’re army have grown incompetent, if it’s the former this individual might have the potential to join the army (I wonder what Maria will think)

S.G. Lerena- Father this is too little of a problem for you to waste your time on so just leave it to me and it will be handled thoroughly

(King Windholm looks at her unamused by what she said, he then takes a sip from his tea)

King Windholm- Let me ask you something, what happens when someone gets away with something

S.G. Lerena- They’ll want to do it again

King Windholm- And what happens if others hear that someone got away away with something valuable

S.G. Lerena- They’ll want to try and get away with it as well

King Windholm- Correct, it seems you haven’t lost your smarts after all

S.G. Lerena- What is your point father

King Windholm- We have a society and a name to uphold if a “Denizen” thinks they can just trample on it as they please, by stealing the goods that we’ve spent much to procure, then they are in for a rude awakening

S.G. Lerena- Then I should have just executed him if that's how you feel about it

King Windholm- But it would be a waste for a man of those talents to be put to death especially if the crime could be waved a away with a bit of *smirk* “community service”

(S.G. Lerena looks defeated so, King Windholm thinks for a second)

King Windholm- Fine I’ll give the 2 of you 3 months to catch him, if not then I will see to it personally

(Looks out a window)

S.G. Lerena- Oh really, thank you- Wait the “2” of you?

King Windholm- Yes, you and your Brother

(Shows a dreadful picture of her brother, with S.G. Lerena having wide eyes)

S.G. Lerena- *shaky* Why him?

King Windholm- Well I would like this “Vagrant” to be captured at the soonest convenience and, thanks to you, I figured that it would be a great inconvenience to myself to deal with this now so, why not send your brother along with you

S.G. Lerena- But I heard he was away for a bit

King Windholm- I called him and he sounded very “happy” to partake in this, just think of it as valuable sibling time *opens door* oh and he’ll be here tomorrow *closes door behind him*

(Zooms into a memory of her brother)

(S.G. Lerena has a saddened face and then cut to her brother smiling)

(S.G. William is wearing a trench coat with dress pants and dress shoes)

S.G. William (Will-e-um)- *smiling* I heard there’s a rat in our coffers *shows his eye* so let’s flush it out

(Ends on Ray looking out the windows of his school)
