Fria walked through the forest. She knew about the fight that was going on. Lots of adults did aswell but to them it was nothing more than children's squabble and that was what Fria also thought of it.
She reached the place where the fight had taken place only to be surprised at what she saw. Several kids were tied to a tree with a rope.She was surprised when she that they were all naked. Likon was tied to a tree upside down.
"We found their loot," a small orc said to Dan who was sitting on a rock. His head was bleeding and his entire body was dirty. There was sand on his legs and hairs and blood on his wrists and fingers. He was drinking from a plastic cup with a straw.
"That's good, What did you find?"
"We found a bit of gold, some meat, some sea shells, some alchol among other stuff."
Dan noticed Fria who was looking around.
"Ok make sure you share it amongst everyone, give more to the people who contributed to the fight more." Dan stood up and walked over to Fria.
As soon as she saw Dan she rushed over to him. She checked his head and looked at his injuries scolding him.
"Let's go, I'm taking you to get some medical attention."
"I don't need medical attention."
"YOUR BLEEDING FROM YOUR HEAD! OF COURSE YOU NEED MEDICAL ATTENTION!"
"It's just a flesh wound, it will heal real quick." Dan took a sip from the drink he was drinking.
"Dad called for you, he said it is of utmost importance,"
"Do you know what it is that he wants?"
"No, I don't."
"Very well then, I'll be there in 2 hours time."
"But-"
"You were given a message, I have received the message loud and clear. I cannot abandon my men in their time of need." Dan said as he pointed at the other kids. Some had minor injuries while some had mild injuries. Case in point their injuries were not deep.
Fria sighed loudly before shrugging her shoulders, "Do what you want?"

The sun was high in the sky when Dan came back home. He was surprised to see a carriage parked in front of his home. He had a bandage on his head courtesy of Dira. She was a succubus at the village's brothel where Dan was a main customer.
Dan entered the house not paying any mind to the knights in armour surrounding the house.
Dan heard the sound of chatter coming from the living room. He walked in to see who it was. There was a horned man and a horned child sitting on one couch while Kliran, Martha and Fria sat on another. There was an armoured knight standing behind Kingsley and Pedro.
"So this is him." Kingsley said. "I wonder what happened to his head." Kingsley waved his hand and the bandage disappeared and so did the wound on the top of his head.
Dan touched his scalp only to find that it did not hurt anymore.
"I don't mean to be rude but..." Dan took a quick glance at Kliran and Martha "who the fuck are you?"
Silence!
Silence was what prevailed. It filled the room to the point where it was possible a pin could be heard if it was dropped.
"How arrogant, you disrespectful litt-" pedro spoke up. But he was quickly shut down by Dan.
"Shut the fuck up you little bitch! I was NOT speaking to you. Your parents must have not taught you manners as you seem to love barging into people's conversations for no reason."
Martha came out of her shock, stood up and pulled Dan upstairs. Kliran gave an akward chuckle. "Ha... Ha ha... so... do you want some biscuits and tea? Martha makes the best biscuits and teas."
Kingsley smiled and then nodded. However Pedro's face was like that of a jehovah witness when you told them you don't care about their religion.
His face was like that of a ghost who was wondering how it died. It was confusion and wonder.He hadn't really had anyone ever speak to him like this. Normally they would be to scared of the consequences.
Pedro remained silent until Dan came back down thirty minutes later. He looked completely different than he was earlier on.
Martha had given him a bath and clothed him. All the dirt, blood and sand were no where to be seen. His face seemed to be sparkling slightly as lotion had been applied to his face. His hair had also been combed, nails cut, teeth brushed and even perfume had been applied to him.
He looked vastly different. Earlier on he seemed like a riff raff that you would normally see dying on the streets due to hunger but now he looked like a smart genius kid who went to college at such a young age.
Dan stood before Pedro and Kingsley. Pedro could swear he heard a sigh of disappointment and boredom. "I am sorry for insulting you earlier on. It was wrong of me, I should have not insulted an important person like you." Dan said. He then scooched himself in between Fria and Martha. Fria got out of the chair and sat down on a wooden chair leaving her space for Dan.
There was silence for quite a while as both sides stared at each other. It was broken by the sound of Dan munching on biscuits.
Kingsley turned to Pedro. "How about you and Dante go outside and talk for a while?"
"But..."
"Just do it, I need to speak with Sir Kliran either way."
Pedro nodded understandingly and stood up. Dan followed suit and they both left the premise. Dan looked at the gaurd that seemed to be following. It was like he actually thought he was being slick. He was moving from tree to tree in a heavy armour. Maybe he thought they would not notice since they were children.
"I heard you were someone important, a princess was it?"
"A prince!" Pedro snarled.
"Same thing, you eat, sleep, shit, order people around, ego the size of a planet yet so fragile. You guys are ignorantly stubborn, spoilt, entitled pricks!"
Pedro's mouth was opening and closing.
"Do you... Do you not know who I am?" he asked.
"No, I actually don't and I would like to keep it that way. If you kept your mouth shut for the while your in my company I would appreciate it." Dan said.
"Stop talking so arrogantly, who do you even think you are? Father and I came here for you and you disrespect us like that, what can be expected of a country bumpkin like you."
Dan looked back at Pedro who finally managed to speak back to him.
"Who do I think I am? No bitch, who the fuck you think you is? You coming around here acting like you own this place?"
