Chapter 311: Muscovite envoy's aide

24th October 1574

"What's does the report say?"

Sitting down in an inconspicuous tent set at the edge of the local forest, upon seeing my group, anyone would most likely think that we were some sort of mercenaries or hired swords returning home after either winning the bet of picking the employer or after the rest of our forces was defeated. 

Given how I couldn't bring any serious force here in order to not bring any attention to this place in the first place, I could only rely on acting low-key to seriously get by. 

"Sir, just like we expected, it turns out that it wasn't a raiding force, but a covert diplomatic party. Should we go with the plan, or just surround them and apprehend all of them? While doing so might result in some casualties on their sides, as long as we will be able to take even a single officer alive, all our questions would most likely be answered. There is no point in putting your lordship at such risk!"
