Artemisia scowled.

For gods sake, how did bandits even put up that big of a fight? There had only been two, and yet they'd all succeeded to catch her unaware with their skills of survival.

She had, of course, disposed on them as well as she could. They all lay dead, ready for the lord's men to come and clean up the spilt blood. She'd done her job and collected her gold pieces. In fact, it could've been much worse.

Except for the fact that her arm was slashed open, blood pouring down her dress' sleeve. She paid it no heed. It was not deep enough to be fatal, and she'd cleaned it up enough upon coming home. Her mind wasn't set on one of her lesser wounds, but rather on her second-best sword, which had shattered after an impact on one of the man's shields. The blacksmith had said it was the best steel in the land, and yet, he seemed to lie through his teeth.

So, Artemisia found herself quickly striding to the armoury. She'd learned the drill, by now. No one will notice if you walked in and across the court if you seemed to know what you were doing. even if it were with a bloodied hand and missing sleeve.

The door creaked when she opened it, eyes already set on the rows of swords. Knight ones, they were. Quite the best, she'd say. Art was used to lighter swords that were more suited to her small frame, but she wasn't above using something heftier.

She couldn't afford to wait the time for a blacksmith to make her a new weapon, and so she'd have to do with what she could.

Art raised a brow when she almost careened into a young man absolutely laden with armour, Camelot reds everywhere. Ah. Perhaps a squire? Page boy? A simple servant? Sure seemed like it. That might have her make change to her plans. She couldn't just... steal a noble man's sword in front of him.

"Who's is this?" She remarked, idly. Suddenly, without an introduction and she lifted a broadsword, twirling it easily in her hand. She could see no identifying insignia, which was good. Perhaps it was simply a practise sword.

Yeah, radio broadcasts for a fake town. My cousin showed me a month ago but I forgot what it was called, so… all the night vale posts make a little more sense now that I know. I’ve only listened to one but it was pretty funny.

trac3ur replied to your post: Okay, what is this Night Vale shit I keep seeing...

It’s a podcast of a fake talk radio thing where this guy Cecil goes on about the weird happenings in the town, and about this other guy Carlos’ perfect hair. Granted I’ve only listened to most of the first one. Good for sleeping.
