[Poised on a stretch of snow-capped cliffs looking over Cothromach's strong-hold on one side, Cu Chulainn posted on his locket and gave it a wide grin. His spear was resting over his shoulder and he looked absolutely unbothered by the razor-sharp, freezing winds lashing at him. In the far distance, a plume of black smoke rose up from a camp that he had recently razed and destroyed. Lancer made his distance earlier, to avoid being scouted too easily]

Hey there. It's come to my attention that we've got some unwelcome Unseelie soldiers sticking around Cothromach. I think they figured their camps were pretty well-disguised, but after awhile--it gets tough to hide that many soldiers. So--

[With a grin, he stood up straight and began walking up the cliff-face, scaling the mountain on foot. At that point, the mangled and burning Unseelie camp could be seen more clearly in the opposite direction as Cothromach. The mountain face gave Lancer an eagle's view of that camp, though it was largely too difficult for most people to scale as quickly as he had.]

I'm usually the type to hog the glory, but I'm missing a few of my precious abilities, so I'll need some help rooting those folks out and running them out of these lands. Who's in for some raids?

[OOC: Plot planning is here!]

[ she is currently in the midst of delicate diplomatic talks to have those same unseelie soldiers stood down. and yet -- and yet! ]

Any good you can do the city of Cothromach will be rewarded, ser.

[ so speaks its lady keeper. ]

Why do I get the impression this is less about asking for help and more about bragging about how many camps you have already taken out?

[There is a teasing look in Diarmuid's eyes as he speaks.]

At least this explains why I haven't seen you around the castle since we got back...

Well, since me and the Lord Commander of being a wolf god are out this way already, we might poke our heads in if we're needed.

Maybe keep us in the loop if they get too close to Cothromach?

What do you think they've got planned?

I can be there in- [ a pause, a quick look around ]

... five minutes, unless you want me to bring anything for you.

Pay Stiles no mind. [It's better for everyone's sanity that way.] I'm the Captain of Cothromach's Guard. Do you know why they've taken up camp there specifically?

Should you have need of anything, the city of Cothromach will provide it for you. [She has been in the city several weeks preparing for an attack after Sansa asked to sit in her place until she can return.]

[She waves in greeting to Lancer before lacing her fingers under her chin.]

What makes this place so special, exactly? Why is it a target?

[War is war, that's not the part she's arguing, but strongholds are seized or destroyed, there are places of strategic importance or other value, she wants to know specifics, if he has them.]

There are civilians there, aren't there.
