Anthea coughed as she took a deep breath. Her windpipe being crushed was not on her to do list today. After catching her breath she stood up, brushed the dirt off her pants, and crouch down next to the unconscious man to retrieve her dagger out of his leg. He was still breathing, and Anthea was fighting the urge to finish him off. Her hair was a mess, and her scalp stung where the thug had ripped out a bit of her hair.

 “Nice job Elle.” Athena said as she flipped her hair around, and ran her fingers through it. Sadly her hair tie that she had been wearing snapped during the fight, so her long black hair was down and in the way, as she hated it. Her good mood was coming back as she retrieved her other dagger from the dead man’s back, and the man in shining armor finally reached them. 

"I would say that you took that a little too far, but I doubt the vermin would have been any nicer about it." Aelfric said to them.

There was a small trace of a smile on her face, as she put away her daggers. It was only morning, and she had already killed two men without batting an eyelash. She was impressed with herself. The armored man had not introduced himself, but Athena could gather from his demeanor and appearance that he was a noble, a Lord of something or other. She looked him over head to toe, wondered where the hell his back up men were, and why he was out here in the middle of a forest. “I could ask you the same question.” She said not paying much attention to the man, as she kneeled down next to one of the bodies to search the pockets for some coins.
