the knight commander was about to stab the young mans throat one on of the knights behind him shouted "commander we have no orders to do something like this you must remember the order so stop"
the commander stopped he looked at the young mans eyes the boy was to the floor his sword was far but the young man had still determination in his eyes the knight got down to his knee and looked at the young man "i don't know if your stupid or brave tell me young man what are you ? "
the young man didn't say something idiotic like other young nobles but "can't i be both ? " the eyes of the knight were wide open "hmmm smart answer no if your stupid your brave and if your brave you must be a little stupid too this is what i have seen that far "
the young noble didn't spoke another word the knights and lord novers started their journey to the capital the knight commander looked gain to the noble man [hmm he hasn't spoke in 30 minutes he is smart he knows he fucked up to he shut the fuck up smart kid smart ]

the butler looked at the great lord with a calm face " my lord this is not the fault of the lord of this area it is the previous lords fault "
the marquess looked at his butler "tell me about the helstain territory i couldn't learn anything with the conflict in our south "
the butler explained to his master about the situation in this land the marquess hear everything "aaa i was so busy that i never realized all of this even if the land has a border with me if i remember right aria was supposed to stay with my friend baron lasbourg and then she and my daughter would come to my estate for some time because of the conflict with other nobles i wanted to help my friend as much as possible but who would have thought "
the lord looked at his other window " wait isn't that he flag of the lasbourg family ? " the butler looked too "yes but why wait is lady elena captured too? "
"lets calm down we will learn we don't have all the information i will get my daughter back "
the marquess got down from his carriage the knights of the helstain territory lead the people of the novers family the marquess continued to look towards the banner of the lasbourg family then he saw them another group o knights from the helstain family and there was baron lasbourg he tried to hide his sadness as the marquess did but he wase't that good at it
the baron saw the marquess he walked towards him "greetings old friend " the marquess understood what the baron was doing he wanted to make clear the friendship between the two nobles to make a stronger argument to the viscount
after all a marquess could crash a viscount easily but a marquess and a baron in different sides this is even worse and the baron couldn't do much to a viscount with their enemies even if the viscount was weak the baron had too many enemies and the baron had only his daughter as a card to play in this situation that the baron was in
so the baron wanted to use the power of the marquess the head of novers didn't mind they were friend from old days and it helped him too the marquess looked at his friend "how are you ? " the baron looked up "not well my only child is captured from another noble i love my child i don't want to lose her "
"i know friend i know " the two nobles walked into the castle the marquess spoke again "your wife how is she ? "
"she is here i im scared but i will try to hide it but she she will break down into lord helstain legs and beg for elena back i couldn't stop her from coming but i told her to stay back how is your wife friend ?"
"she hasn't stopped crying "
