Soon people around Albert Rowan heard George´s plan. It was unique, strange, and the most of all stupid. How could something like that work? No one has ever before thought anything like it and for a good reason.

“You expect that someone here could do it. Even if the first part works out perfectly then how are we going to take over both towers.” One of the men said his thought. They were perfectly understandable. Everyone thought the same.

“I don´t expect this will work for sure but at least this will show to everyone that that place can be brought down. This is just training. There isn´t any danger someone would die. At least with this way no one can say we didn´t do our best. I´m looking forward their faces if we succeed so strange way. Do you agree?” George said his mind with plain face like it wasn´t anything strange.

He was dressing himself same way as before. Thanks to it even if this will fail horribly then he can transfer the blaim to his fake identity. It is simply perfect.

Originally he was going to introduce Albert to architect, but they had to hurry to make plan possible. This plan need a lot of advance work to make it succeed. This is why he need to make others to become motivated about thought about how everyone will look at them tomorrow. He was sure he will gain positive answer from everybody.

People around him had no idea how to react next. Some of them might disagree so no one wanted to say their thought. It was clear many wanted to do this. Even still there were some people how didn´t want to do it. One of the latter group was plans the key person of the plan. Everyone knew this won´t work if he isn´t willing. Everyone knew also reason why he doesn´t like idea.

Reason behind was the reason why he was with them. Now everyone wants him to do the same which brought him to this awkward moment. It is like everyone want him to steal again when he was imprison because of it. This isn´t as bad as that example but even still it isn´t easy.

George knew he couldn´t let this silence to continue any further than this. “You know sometimes simple plan is better than difficult one. We can do this. There isn´t no reason why we can´t do our parts with this. I know this seems to be stupid idea but many thing are like that at first. I don´t thing this plan ask to much from any of you. I believe you can do this.”

As he told many thought same thing but one´s thought were completely different. He seems like someone I know. He was viscount Albert Rowan. Reasoning behind why he couldn´t figure out that black hooded man was George was simple. They had know each other for so long that both of their thought had become similar. As one had looked his nephew and other his son they had become familiar with this kind of thought set. They were sure this would work but others didn´t share same ideas as them.

Others haven´t experienced same thing as them so it was understandable. It was difficult to them understand why others hesitated so much.

Saul Lamies choosed share his thought to those two. “You can´t expect that we can follow with such plan. This makes no sense. Shouldn´t we stick with normal plans?”

“Normal plans won´t work to them.” Albert said it straight the way without holding back. “Place where we are going is concidered impenetrable. How could we succeed without special method? I at least would like to here if you have better ideas.”

No one could say even a word. What was said was true. Still using something so strange would make everyone laugh at them. Changes are actually that will happen. No one wants to become eye striking so soon.

Even still Lamies choosed to keep talking. “No one is expecting us to succeed. We should just take it and leave. Let´s just pretent we do our best. What then? I thing this will bring even more problem. I think even more than any of us can deal with.”

He has good reason. He has made valid point. No one can deny his words. It is truth but reason why they must succeed is completely different. Both George and Albert are worrying about Tetrao village´s future. After border war village became part of Polgon kingdom. Thing is just they didn´t want this to happen. In the past Tetrao village has been neutral ground. Thing has change enormously and not a good way.

This content has been misappropriated from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.

Any of the neighbor countries might and will attack at some point. In the past armies has cross across them many times, but they weren´t ready for it themselves. Now people know what kind of place it is. No defence plan works anymore if they try their best.

After the war it became clear that Saisagus wasn´t going for war. If they have been going to war then things would have been gone completely different way. Both George and Albert knows this. So they are trying their hardest to prove that attacking them might cause way more than they can think.

In other words they are misleading everyone think war will cause way more losses than gains. Truth is it isn´t false claim. It is truth. War will cause tolls to anyone how are attacking, including Polgon kingdom. King August is trying to make them his by making everyone recognize them as a part of the kingdom. Balls, festivals, royal gathetings and military exersice are all prove of it. It wouldn´t be surprise that king would make one of his daughters to marry Albert´s oldest son Aled.

Albert has always tried to make Aled live freely as he can. Althought he knows that marriage will happen someday he still wants Aled choose by himself how he wants. Just like his father let Albert choose Sara out of everyone else.

Problem is these soldiers aren´t Tetrao village´s soldiers. He can´t show them any weaknesses. Even if they succeed even then it isn´t enough. He must convince everyone to treat them as they have used to treat by everyone in the world.

George sees things way more promising way thanks to bridge building. He knows village will suffer some harm for little while but as long term it will improve Tetrao´s live. Tar is the main commodity used as trade. It wasn´t never intended to be main trade place.

George choosed to give light push. “I heard you have been mistreated madly by everyone. That is reason why you were choosed to this job. Am I wrong?”

Silence followed. They knew it but no one said it to their face. People haven´t shown any conscience to them for a long time. George knew this was moment to make them follow Albert.

“Do you want to prove all of them wrong?”

This guestion changed their mind. Why were they still trying to act normally when everyone has concidered them as strange people. Why not embrace it? They were different from everyone else. Why should they act like everyone else? Their way might be actually the right way.

Indeed everyone wanted to prove those people wrong. Even particular person how would do the most important part was like that too. He was innocent witness how was just running away from trouble. As he was running he meet people how he shouldn´t have meet and things escalated. He wouldn´t have been in any problem but then he started to run. This made everyone doubt his innocence.

He knows he can´t prove it now, but he can help people with his skill which he didn´t know anything about. Talent of escaping, hiding and infiltrating. He possess such skill. People might assume he had escaped many troubles in his live but that isn´t the case. He simply possess amazing sense of balance.

Thanks to his balance skill he is also good soldier. Especially in hand-to-hand combat. Reason behind why he couldn´t rise in ranking was his stamina. He just can´t keep up with others.

He always wanted to find work where he could avoid too much labor but something like that doesn´t exist. He just isn´t smart enough to work in indoor environment. So his only option was transfer to Albert´s cause.

Plan for his part was simple and by some sense easy but loss could happen without even noticing where thing had gone wrong. If thing where go badly then in the wrost case it might cause death. This was a big problem since his largest fear was fear of high places. And this will definitely cause exactly that.

He didn´t want to do this and everyone knew about it. It was miracle that he had told his fear before and now everyone wants to him deal with it head on. He didn´t want to become worlds first tightrope walker how had fear of high places. This can´t become part of world history.

He is one of those people how try to find excitement from his fears. That´s why he likes to go places where are beautiful landscapes and dangerous falls. He simply find excitement from them. But that isn´t reason to trying to bet his live on. There is no way he is going to do it if there is danger of his live. This is meant to be peaceful exercise.

Next Albert gave out idea. “What if we give some savety rope so if you fall then you won´t hit the ground?”

Normally that would have been a good idea but Nothinghill´s walls are only 5 meters tall. How can they give save but also small rope? If rope is too long then there isn´t any point at the first place.

Then suddenly someone gave out idea which gave solution to both problems. There was actually one very simple way make both towel occupied and give savety as a same time. Also it make palancing way more easier.

Only problem left was how to convince Soldier to take his fear head on and make plan succeed. One way was just make him key part of mission which can´t be done again in the future. This plan can only work when no one can expect it.

Then one soldier thought about plan which makes “tightrope walker” to do it. “Why are you trying to make everyone convince that is was their idea? We all know you want to do this. You just want to say this was just their idea. So you are going to do this to make us own favor for you. Am I correct?”

Of course this wasn´t his plan put after this was said he noticed maybe it was like that. He knew then he can keep up with this. He should at least try it. It might be a lot of fun.

“Alright. I do it. I kind of have to do it after this much concideration. Am I right? Also you do own me favor in the future. So don´t try to avoid your own part of it. I will remember.”

Everyone started to laugh to his words. No one was convinced he meant his words. This made whole groups moral rise to the sky. “Yeah yeah. What ever you say.”

It took a while to everyone to calm out. They started to preparation horriedly but no one was complaining. This was their change to shine. “tightrope walker” was working hard but his part was practice then to his surprise Albert came to him and asked with small voice. “Did you start to have bad stamina after you got to the army? You didn´t have any health problem before that minor accident am I correct?”

There seems to be change that I can improve over this stamina. Albert seems to know something about my situation.
