The mercenaries were trembling and speechless at Eleonora's decision. They looked at each other, trying to find just one chance to be free from the inexplicable punishment.
"You will all be slaves in this castle for a year. If you try to run away or disobey, I will make sure you are put to death."
At first the mercenaries were completely confused by what Eleonora had said. They probably thought that Eleonora was going to cut off their right hands so that they couldn't hold a sword anymore. But, after learning that they only needed to work at Lucsor Castle, they were greatly relieved.
"Lady, is that really the only punishment you're going to give them?" Aisha sounded unhappy with Eleonora's decision.
"Yes!"
"Lady... I beg you to put them to death as an example for being so presumptuous to you!" Aisha was firm in her stance about the mercenaries who had dared to mock and even pointed their weapons at Eleonora should be put to death.
