---------Continued from Northern Sea-----------
Klein looked down towards the camp of the rebels. "Well what do we do now?" He asked. "We need supplies, but with something like this going on there is no way we'd be able to get them." He shrugged. "Should we really get involved in affairs that don't involve us? I mean, I don't want to see innocent people get used like this, but what can we do?" He looked to the others. "It's up to you." He said leaning against a nearby rock.

"I say we do something about it. If we need to get supplies and are already here, we are getting the supplies. Just think of helping the common cause as a preliminary to the goods and hell, maybe we'll even get the stuff for free if we impress."

Amira shrugged. "I agree with Narik. It isn't as if we have somewhere else we need to be, and if we are able to help these people, why shouldn't we do it, instead of running of to find supplies somewhere else?"

Blade shook his head. "Like you said Klein, this affair doesn't involve us.. I don't think our well being should be sacrificed for those we don't know. Besides I've been here before, the Royal Guard is not to be tested, they wouldn't hesitate slaughtering that entire rebel group." Klein turned to him, "Thats the point! They won't last with out help, and if anyone can offer the type of help these people need, it's us." Blade smirked, " Well it's peanuts to an elephant then, I guess we have to, we need to stock up, and they need help."

Klein nodded and started down the hill and into the village. The buildings seemed sturdy, but rather ramshackle and the farms looked like they were prospering, but with little space. There were still quite a few townspeople wandering around, and they eyed the group with suspicion. The gate of the rebel camp was guarded by 2 men holding pitchforks. "Seriously? They didnt even give them weapons?" Klein said to Narik. "We'd like to enlist and help your cause, may we speak to your commander?" Klein said to one of the men. The man looked them up and down and nodded nervously. "You look like you would be an asset." He said, nodding to the gate keeper who unbarred the large palisade gate and ushered them inside. The rebel led the group to a large tent near the center of the camp. Inside a middle-aged greying man was eating. "Commander Nayum, these men would like to join our cause for freedom!" the rebel said with a bow. Nayum stood, swallowing a mouthfull of meat. "So they do, do they?" He laughed. "Very well, any one is welcome to join the cause and help us fight for the liberation of these great people!" He looked over his shoulder at a nearby rebel, who was slightly better equipped. "Lead them to an empty tent, that is where they shall stay for the duration of this war." The man nervously nodded and motioned for the group to follow. Klein looked back at Nayum suspiciously. As they walked he made note of where this command tent was, he had suspicions that he needed to check later on. Once they reached the small tent they were to stay in Klein sat on one of the bedrolls and removed his pack and bow, and shrugged off his jacket. "So, we're all sure about this?" He asked. "This is kind of worrying me, did you see how feeble and nervous these people were? Can they really stand up to royal guards?"

Narik shurgged his shoulders. "Nope, we are all screwed. There is no way these men can do anything." The reply worsened Klien's feelings on the matter, but he noticed that Narik was laughing at his expression. "I'm only kidding. The only thing that these people are missing here is the willpower to fight. With that, someone can stand against the most impossible odds. How do you think we've made it this far? All we have to do is rub off some of our will to them. Train them for battle and give them some better weaponry. We still have some extras on the ship if I recall."

Klein shook his head. "I don't know..." He said. "I don't like the look of their commander, he seems...manipulative to me." He stood up. "I need to check on something I'll be back." He said moving out of the tent. He made his way to the command tent, being sure not to be noticed. He snuck to the side of it and waited, after awhile he heard voices, one he recognized as Nayum's the other was gruff and deep, most likely a larger man. "Sir, are you sure these people can really take out the king and his men? Won't there be countless casualties?" The gruff man said. Nayum laughed, a shrill laugh. "Who cares? The more of them that die, the less resistance there will be when I claim my spot as king!" Klein stumbled backwards. "I knew it..." he mumbled. "What was that!? Zari, check it out!" Nayum said from inside the tent. "Damnit, gotta run...wish I could here more." Klein thought to himself as he sprinted back to the tent. He walked inside. "Just as I thought...manipulative." He said. "What are you talking about?" Blade asked. "Nayum, he's using the people to take control of the castle and become king himself, he could care less what happens to the civilians lives." He shook slightly as he spoke. "I'm not letting this happen..." He said. "You can all do what you wish."

Narik sighed. "Then what side should we go with? Both of the options seem wrong to me, I guess we could leave it up to you then or hell, maybe we can even lead a rebellion ourselves on everyone involved in the matter." Klein nervously laughed. "No, I don't think that is the best idea that we can come up with. Just think about it for a minute, what if the king is doing these things for a reason? Maybe he isn't so bad after all and the rebels are just making him out to be like that in order or us to help them." Narik looked to the floor and pondered the idea. "Yeah, I think you're on to something. Well you've made up my mind then, I say we go help the king!"

"So all we know is that there's a rebellion, and that Mr. Nayum wants to be king." Blade laughed, "Perhaps we should find out more about this situation before choosing sides?"

Klein shrugged. "I know all I need to..." He mumbled. "If you need more information feel free to get it, I've made up my mind, Nayum dies." He said. He walked out of the tent and sat down outside. "Just like Dad...such cowardice, I can't escape the shadowy movements of human greed. Tomorrow this ends." He said sighing. He hoped the others would come around to his side eventually, he didn't want to fight them.

Amira watched, thinking silently. She agreed with Blade, not wanting to completely make up a plan without knowing sure facts, but she had a feeling that Klein was right. The king was irrelevant at the moment anyway - Nayum was the immediate problem. The rebelling under him had to be stopped, whether or not the king deserved to be overthrown.
She followed Klein out of the tent, sensing a certain dark feeling that was more him than it was a part of the situation. She sat close to him, and, looking at him, felt a wave of trust and loyalty come over her. She would help him.

Narik and Blade sat in the tent, staring across it at each other. "Well then, it seems we got Klein a bit cranky because we wouldn't decide. So, what do you think we should do?" Narik gestured. Blade simply shrugged in response. "Great, lot of help you are." Blade cracked his knuckles and Narik shot a faint smile back at him. "Look, you want my opinion? I say we might as well go with Klein. If he believes there is something up with Nayum then we should trust him on it. We are a team after all, right?" Narik got up from his chair and approached the door of the tent. "Good, exactly what I was thinking as well. No objections, so let's go."

Narik and Blade left the tent, they walked around the side of the tent to wear Klein was. He looked up to them, disgruntled. Blade laughed, "Didn't realize this was so upsetting to you." Klein just shook his head and looked down. Blade continued, "...But, I suppose we're a team now, and must honor each other's decisions. If this is your decision, you have my assistance." Klein looked over to Narik, who nodded in agreement, then smiled. Blade helped him, up and nodded. "I suppose if we aren't helping Nayum, we either need to attempt to speak with the king, tell him we're on his side. Or, kill Nayum and hope his army of town's people doesn't murder us..."

Klein stood up smiling. "Thank you guys...you really dont have to do this you know." He said. Blade patted him on the shoulder to show they were there for him. "Alright...I figure our best shot is to just take out Nayum...but...we'll need to somehow expose him as a fraud first." He looked around. "Also...we'll need to have someone negotiate with the king while the rest of us are doing that, the people are still displeased with the way he is doing things, and we need to fix that otherwise we still risk backlash from the civilians." He sighed. "And honestly...Nayum has some very loyal guards, guards that arent from here, we may need to take them out as well." He walked back towards the tent entrance. "We need a plan...any ideas?" He asked, turning back to face the group with his arms crossed.

Blade pondered, "If need be, I'll speak to the king, after all.." He smirked, "I'd like to think I'm best suited for the job." Klein dropped his serious facade and laughed for a moment. Blade continued, "I think we need to figure out a way to kill his loyal guards without anyone knowing... Then capture Nayum and force him to publicly admit his plans." Klein nodded, "Clever, it seems feasible." Blade folded his arms, and leaned against a tent pole, "However it IS just an option, we're all tools at your display Klein, the final word is yours."
