Erik parried a blow, and grabbed the man's sword arm by the wrist, yanking him down into a knee to the face, knocking the man out cold. He turned to see Eren catch a blade to the stomach, and reached forward, grabbing him by the shoulder. Erik tried to pulled the man upright, but he was already deadweight and likely short for the world. Erik released him and ducked back from a wide swing as the Knights stepped through the door. Erik stepped backwards from the rank and file soldiers to put distance between him, them, and the newcomers. He didn't expect the diplomacy to follow. Once the problem was sorted out, and the knights and soldiers left Erik looked up at Lazuli. "I think we could have handled them." The golem looked down at him, and shrugged. Erik helped clean up the first floor as Jericho and the Wizard went upstairs to heal his wounds. Once finished up, Erik went upstairs, leaving Lazuli on the first floor. They were unsure if the second floor could support his weight. Erik watched the magic at work, and listened to their leader talk. "Well, its simple. Our options are pretty cut and dry." Erik said. "We take a boat outta here, sorry about your luck chuck. We sneak out. Or we try to fight our way through an army and make a lot of enemies." Erik scratched his face. "Or we could charter a boat, and have it drop us off further up the coast or some such thing. But can we afford it?"
