Who: Bert

With: Sanya

Where: A private room in the Merchant’s Quarter

When: March 14th, 872 RoK - Late Afternoon

The last few days had been some of the toughest in Bert’s memory. Starting with Kyky disappearing into the crowd after the zombie outbreak, it had become increasingly difficult to keep the peace. Much of the city had been overrun, and it was all he and the remaining soldiers could do to help push back the horde. Thankfully, Bert’s experience with zombies had been helpful in rescuing more than a few people trapped in their homes. A few days later, news came into the city from the West of a new queen. Spending a night thinking through his options, Bert thought it best to go speak with his new Queen and discuss where he fell under her leadership. After all, he already had the trust of the people in his shire, and it would go a long way to help the transition if they had a familiar face to turn to.

Bert had been on his way out of the city when he had been stopped by a woman in a brown cloak, who upon closer inspection he discovered was the Lady Sanya Nimr, a powerful woman from the South. He quickly dropped to a knee, before being lead to a private room nearby.

"You must be wondering why I stopped you before you left the city,"

"First, I wanted to thank you personally for your service these last few days."

“As a matter of fact, I am. After all, I’m only a simple Sheriff. What would my Lady have from me?”

Bert bowed his head slightly at the compliment. “I was only doing my duty, m’Lady. I couldn’t stand to see the people of the city harmed anymore.”
