Bandits abide by some rules strictly to remain fair for themselves.
First, they help their brothers in every situation, second, they never plunder in the house of a soldier.
This group of bandits broke the second rule and they faced consequences.
Now it was a serious matter for them.
"We wanted to avenge for our brothers, " they were bound to help each other.
"We saw with our own eyes our brothers dying, we cannot let them go waste, "
"We beg the chief to take some action either people will stop fearing our existence, "
The other bandits heard their pleadings.
They melted, and it was a matter of concern too if some of them were killed in such plunder what would their chief do, sit and excuse from revenge? That means their lives were useless in the eyes of their chiefs.
If that was the matter, then they should simply leave them and live a peaceful life in some corner of the kingdom not wander anymore in the forests.
