The guard listened to Einar. Then the guard hobbled together and spoke in whispers. The other entered the fortress after few seconds.

"Prince Asoth is busy. However if you simply wish to join the army, you should've told us earlier. That's not Prince's department - we will get Lieutenant Palmyr for you and your group. Please note that we're at state of war. Paperwork and audiences is least of our concerns."

"Prince Asoth is busy. Audiences for today have been postponed until tomorrow afternoon, after the second meal." One of the guards said without even shifting his upright stance.

"Well... you're forgetting the fact we're standing in front of what it seems their only entrance to this fort. And besides, we're not anyone important, we're what - a mage, a sword lady, pair of robed ladies, a horseman and two scruffy men in clothes of rather dubious quality." Eleonore turned to Cidney and Jorund.

"No offense." Then Eleonore turned as the main door was opened widely - an entire troop of spearmen began to march out, with a small, ratty-looking robed man on a horse in midst of them. He had some ornate clothing and large golden chain around his neck, and a set of papers under his right arm. He looked like some kind of official or judge or someone of that kind. Eleonore waved at her companions and stepped away herself.

"No, Colt. We will wait until it's calmer and then ask again. To be honest I see no reason why the guards should let us in whilst the garrison is so busy."

@Everyone everywhere:

Now that books were returned, Eleonore and the group managed to meet alltogether and wander the streets toward the city garrison where Prince could be found, possibly.

Unfortunately, no one wanted to listen to her even when she told that she was Prince's acquitance, the guards at the gate being uncooperative and a bit pushing. Considering that she almost got trampled by a group of horsemen in hurry, and a courier boy carrying several letters smashed into Nerea few minutes later, it seemed that city garrison didn't fare better than the streets - there was simply chaos.

People were talking, some were packing things onto carts and wagons, and some were clearly preparing themselves for combat.

Oh look, one free spot!
