[Bandits. It's not really a surprise given that Landow's located a bit further away from other towns, but they certainly have balls to target a town this close to the castle. Not that it helped them much; they weren't particularly difficult to dispatch. The trouble with fighting bandits is in their numbers; people are often desperate enough to turn to becoming bandits, but few of them are actually skilled.
It wasn't a truly satisfying fight, but the bandits are dead and the people of the town are safe for now. Most importantly, Blanche is still fine.]
One of them managed to get me. It's just a minor cut.
[He holds out his arm for her to examine - there's a slice up his sleeve that exposes a portion of his forearm which bears a thin cut. It isn't even properly bleeding; Alaric looks mildly annoyed by it more than anything else.]
Thanks for taking care of the ones that tried to flee.
[If the bandits had actually managed to escape, they would have had no choice but to let them go. They don't have the time to track down a bandit camp and destroy it, after all. Better to finish them all off now.]
