The Duke walked with Jarmok at a brisk pace and spied that Jarmok had little, if any, trouble keeping up. In fact, he noticed that Jarmok could out pace him. Not with his stride- for Jarmok's stride was certainly not longer than Corwynn's- but with his sheer speed in self locomotion. A speedy ranger Jarmok must be he thought, truly a tenacious adversary in the forest or anywhere for that matter.
"Those four guards, men, if you will take my meaning..." the Duke's words hung in the air as his thoughts trailed away. He continued to walk absentmindedly it seemed though Jarmok could see that his mind was anything but blank. "...they are very loyal to me...my family and I to them. My family's bond with their clan stretches back for many generations...back to when the Valley was in Darkness." Corwynn looked to Jarmok with a nod and a smile. The tall Duke's stride began to hasten as he noticed the sky lighten in it's indigo and purple shade.
