Jazdia felt the sores building in her hand. If it was an idle insult, she would have tolerated it, but the man attacked her fair and square and trampled on the legal bindings that were supposed to be as sacred as the law itself. If she was her younger self, she would have reached for Maugrim in instant.

But while still contemplating whether she should let it ride or slice the man's neck open, That oriental knight suddenly made provocative actions, spewing threats, trying to assert dominance. The Constable reacted immediately, followed by his men.

Then it was the small lady's turn, intervening by sending one guard flying with a kick and jostling the others like a rag doll.  
However, the escalation halted with an uneasy stalemate when the Rosenving noble secured the Samurai boy and had him standing up again, retreating from the impending brawl, but certainly not running from it.

Jazdia casually pushed aside one of the pointing spears and made her way to pick up her document back. Glared at the two troublemakers, she commanded; [color=ec008c]"Stay where you are."[/color]  

Then she faced the constable, letting out a long breath before speaking. 
 
[color=ec008c]"Now you have it, the show of force. Congratulations! Are you ready to be sensible now?" [/color]

But the Constable's wrath remained unhinged. He eyed his men, and Jazdia could feel the point of their pikes following behind her. 

[color=#D4AF37][b]"Do you think I am playing games here, you elf bitch?"[/b] [/color]

[color=ec008c]"Yes, and the bad one I am afraid. Trespassing, that's the only infraction you can convict us with, and you had the entire platoon making an arrest before we could finish explaining ourselves. [b][i]Ignorantia iuris nocet[/i][/b], your negligence of the correct procedure could cost you. Are you willing to take that bet?" [/color]

The constable tensed, but then reined his temper. [color=#D4AF37][b]"Look at how pathetic you are speaking about the law while you  beguiling my men to get what you want." [/b][/color]

[color=ec008c]"Can you prove it?!"[/color] scoffed the elf, then she turned around. [color=ec008c]"Can you all?"[/color] 

[color=ec008c]"No, they can't. And here you are hell-bent on arresting us as if your life depended on it. You can try, Constable."[/color] she raised her voice so all soldiers could hear it too. [b][color=ec008c]"You all can try! But know this, we will not go quietly, we will cripple you and maybe kill some of you if we have to. And the worst thing that could happen to us is several days in your dungeon and a slap on the wrist. You are now assaulting those who work with your king. What is your defense?"[/color][/b]

She retreated. A blade of one of the pikes touched her shoulder, but both the elf and the soldiers stood unwavering. 

[b][color=ec008c]"What is your defense, Soldiers? Your captain is a noble gentleman. But you lot are not. Your captain will be fine. But you will be the one who takes the brunt of his unprofessional misdemeanor, in addition to suffering the aftermath of this hostile encounter. You saw what is sealed on that paper, and God is my witness you stand between fulfilling your duty as your captain commanded, or hindering the task given by His Highness. Make your choice![/color][/b]
