[ Oscar had been out of touch for a good few weeks thanks to traveling and doing a little bit of one on one reconnaissance in a nearby village. It was just a few farms, an inn, a tavern or two and of course a few tradesmen. Towns liked to spring up near a castle after all and Oscar was getting a lay of the land!

... and also sampling a few wine bottles but that just helped get the tongues wagging, you know. But then he woke up one day and rolled over and remembered he had a locket and it wasn't some fair lady's locket but rather his. After a brief moment of scrolling, he suddenly bolted out of bed and rushed out of the inn, calling for his companions to follow him with jacket in tow and his shirt sleeves half buttoned!

Struggling, he turned on his locket and attempted to make a call to his friends and failed completely, broadcasting it to all and sundry. ]

What news of this army have we heard? Is it a large group? How many days before they reach the castle? Gilbert, Elliot, Alice! Please tell me you're safe!

[ And, you know, not mixed up in this mess because odds are, they're all right smack in the middle of the whole dang thing. Curse your noble hearts! ]

((ooc: Due to hiatus, Oscar's been doing some snooping into how the general populace feels about caer glaem and the war (general) for the last two weeks and so he hasn't been checking his locket too often because he's been busy. Feel free to action it up at the village if you like or while he's enroute back to the castle! I figure he's probably at least a few days ride out from it. ))

[ wow, what a way to make him quake in his boots, young sir! and regardless of the sudden abrupt end to the message, Oscar is quickly trying to redial and try to send his own message. (whether it succeeds, is up to you). ]

Now, come now, sir! Surely there's more then can be done then start a massacre. There are women and children here in the castle!

[ and they're such sweet, young things too! ]
