Loragorn took in the information and nodded. As he pulled out a a bag of gold coins Maerad leaned over and he turned an ear to what she had to say. When she was finished he simply nodded. He hadn't planned on paying Angelo full price on that piece of information anyway. While it was nice to know it didn't change his plans for the Queen. Besides a sick and wounded animal is usually at its most dangerous and it was likly that the same applied for the spirited country of Zamora. What really mattered was where the loyalties of Angelo's people laid. "Here Angelo. Your services are appreciated." He said sliding the bag of coins towards the man. There was about a fourth less in the bag then what the man was expecting. "I think that's it for the day. You're all dismissed. I know you must be exhausted from your trip here Angelo. I'll have one of the servants escort you to your room. Feel free to ask them for anything you wish."

Maerad kept her face impassive and almost bored. She had no idea what the king had paid Angelo. If he had taken her advice, it would be all the easier for her, but she knew she could afford to double whatever Loragorn had agreed to pay Angelo-which was never much. Maerad expected this to be easy. Once Angelo understood that he could become a very rich man if he aided her, there was no way he could turn her down. She cast a disinterested look over at the spy wondering what he'd say about his pay or if Loragorn took her advice. She stretched her arms over her head, lingering so she could find out where Angelo's room was.

Meeting out in the hallway both Mira and Madela were packed and ready to go get the rest of their supplies. Both women were wearing ordinary cloaks. Mira was wearing a black one and Madela was wearing a deep blue. The two began to walk down the hall to where they would gather the rest of their supplies. When they were done they headed outside to get the horses ready.

As they passed Resa's salon Mira to Madela to wait, set her bags down and she walked inside. Going over to Resa's main stand Mira laid a letter on top with Resa's name on the front. The letter read:

Hello lovely,
I am very sorry that I can not go to where the fighters are and see how your husband is doing. But I promise that when Madela and I return from our mission I will go there and seek him out.
Wish us luck!
Mira

Exiting her salon Mira walked over to Madela and gave her a smile, picking her bags up. Then they both began walking again. Going outside the women headed to the stables.

Mira walked over to her own horse Azra as Madela walked over to Raja. They were going to disguise Azra by making a white mark on her forehead and leg. Using something that didn't wipe off, but faded with time. After getting the horses ready they both mounted and headed out of the stables. When they got to the entrance Mira called a stable hand over and told the young man to go to the Queen and let her know that they had left. After the kid nodded he took off. Mira looked to Madela and gave her a nod. After both women pulled their hoods up they took off towards the boarder.

"Always so very generious." Angelo said to him with a smile, after all he was all to aware of the silent whispering between Meared and the King, he was even more aware of the others around him. He picked up the coin purse and tossed it up a couple of times, keeping his smile on his face as he didn't say anything about how much was in it, after all you could never complain even though it was a lot less then what he thought it was going to be but then again it never hurt him in the lease. "Thank you, i am very greatful to you." he said as he stood and bowed to the King, tucking the purse away as he waved to everyone else and followed the servent to a room that was close to an exit and near the stables, after all he needed to check on Kou also and get some more of his things, like weapons for protection while he stayed at the castle.

Maerad waited until the spy had left the room before leaving herself, running her hand nonchalantly across the back of Loragorn's chair.Good evening, Your Majesty,she said, looking back coyly over her shoulder. Maerad glanced around and saw that Angelo was being lead towards the front of the castle, which meant, as she had assumed, he was being kept in the guest quarters kept for visitors of no particular importance. Maerad made a note of that. She paid a servant to tell her exactly which room was his and left. For now she needed everyone to think she had gone home. Maerad called for her carriage and closed the curtains in the windows. When she was halfway home, she had her driver stop and let her out near a densely wooded area. Her servants were used to her odd behavior, so the driver said nothing. Maerad went back to the castle, keeping to the shadows. Fortunately, the window was relatively low, so she didn't have far to climb. She silently crept into Angelo's room and settled into a chair, her sword drawn and dangling lazily from her hand.

"You are welcome, Angelo. Let it not be said that Cahartha is not hospitable. Get a good rest we will speak more before you leave." Loragorn said nodding as Angelo was led away. He watched Maerad leave soon after and bid her a good evening in return. He turned to his remaining knights and nodded at each in turn. " Well shouldn't you two be preparing for the days ahead. I'd rather dislike it if we were caught unawares. I in the meantime will be going over battle strategies in my chambers." Loragorn announced before leaving the room as well.

((Did you guys know that there is actually a city named Zamora? It's in Spain. I just randomly found that out today. I didn't plan it like that. Crazy, right?))
