As the Order's soldiers come to gather and prepare for the eviction, none other appears than the reclusive Marquis. A clawed hand raised in halt saw the soldiers of the military cease and form rank to await orders. Unblinking golden eyes surveyed the scene of the Lapine's eviction before turning to the crowd that had been watching the spectacle with a mixture of worry and outrage. With an even voice, the same used for every address, he elaborated on his position.
Quote:"When first I took over Promethia, I made a promise to the denizens of New Tannen that they might keep their homes, businesses, and affairs here to integrate them properly into the city of progress. I have been lax in my dealings of late and this is an oversight of administration, not endorsed by myself, The Council, or The Order at large and as such the seizure is halted effective immediately.
I keep my promises.
As you were, miss Erebus."
With those words he withdrew a purse of coins from his hip and offered it to upset Lapine with a faint smile before withdrawing back to the town square, the aimless soldiers forming an honor guard to escort him through the city.
