General Pana gazed down on a rat-faced beastman. His face was bloodied and one eye had swollen completely shut. According to her guards, he was caught suspiciously trying to climb the walls of the city. His behavior was clearly that of a spy, so they needed to figure out why he was here.
Seeing that the beating did not work to get any information out of him, Pana decided to come down herself and speak to the man. If he could not be swayed by violence, then maybe he could be tempted by mercy.
"I am Pana. General overseeing the city of Alvora. And you?"
The man spat on the ground, with it came a tooth and a glob of blood. "Your new dad. Your mom says hey."
His guard stepped forward to strike him for his insolent behavior, but Pana waved them off.
"Charming, young man, but I am old enough to be your mother. And thanks to my wizened years, I am above that taunting. So, shall we try again? Who are you."
