The old man doesn't say anything about the dead soldiers and turns around.
I sure as hell am not going to open my mouth and dig myself into a deeper hole.
As far as I know, I am on the hook for murdering empirical soldiers.
Before I can consider running three skiles and two riders come by.
The ranger jumps on the riderless skile and takes off while the other two turn their heads to look at me.
"Let's go," the female ranger closest to me says after a moment of silence.
The other ranger has a streak of blood across her green cloak.
"Best to hurry, the ride to Landers is a long one" The Ranger adds.
"What about them"? I ask pointing behind me at the bodies.
"They were going to sell you... because you came back from the Meru" the same ranger says as if that explains everything.
"The commander just got rid of traitors, you won't be held responsible" the other female ranger adds, understanding what I meant.
