[B][U]Esmeralda Joins the Women's Auxiliary[/U][/B]

Esmeralda stood behind the bar of the Golden Lioness explaining to two of her coven how she expected them to comport themselves and run her business. One was a rather muscular young man who hung on her every word as if she spoke in the goddesses voice the other was a beautiful blond who scarcely hid her lust and desire

[B]"Lyric, Cynder, I expect to find that each of you have played your part well while I lend this city my aid.
When I return I shall continue your instruction into the 4th circle with joy and worship"[/B] she says an then kisses each with such passion they swoon.

When she steps from behind the bar the remainder of her coven await their mistress each with an article requested by she for them to prepare. As she collected her pack, bag of holding which contained her healing potions., her war staff, long cloak and other items.

Once she's outside in the street and headed to the west gate where she's agreed to help in the city's defense. The city had tried to recruit her entire coven as fighters till she explained that none could cast offensive magic save herself. No instead her tavern would serve as an evacuation point for the wounded and her staff as medics.

Arriving at the west gate Esmeralda became quickly aware of many of the people staring at her. Pausing she glanced about at the assembled her smile inscrutable.

"An what have we here brothers, did any here order up a bit of entertainment?" Says a rather ugly an rude man.
He sits at a long table with benches surrounded by what appear to be his friends or fellow mercs.

"I'd tread lightly friend for she is the Lady of the Golden Lioness" says an older warrior that Esmeralda recognises as a customer.

"An why should I tread so gray beard?" Laughs the rude man

[B]"I suppose I should render my credentials"[/B] says Esmeralda

Extending her right arm she says[B]"Zeph"[/B] 
A heavy white silk rope leaps forward looping table and benches in it's coils.
[B]"Crush"[/B] she whispers and the rope begins squeezing the targets till they start to splinter and break dumpping the fool and his friends in the muddy court yard next to the gate.

The mercs now angry stand and begin to show menace towards Esmeralda as the advance. She raises her left arm saying [B]"Kine"[/B] and her second rope appears leaping towards the men 
[B]"Bind"[/B] she says and both ropes coil around the mercs trapping them like a python would a rabbit or a pig.

"Lady Sirensong please refrain from injuring our allies and release them" says the gate Captain as he steps outside the left gate tower.
"And you men treat the Lady with more respect or she's liable to not be so gentle next time"
