Willis Reede had a knife to his throat.
He frowned digging his fingernails on to the wood of the chair while his face was covered in soap. The suds slowly trickling down his cheek and touching his tongue. The beautiful Sand Elf woman gave Willis a warm smile looking over his face like an artist staring at their painting before scrapping some hairs off of Willis' cheek. The young man enjoyed the warmth of his feet submerged inside a wooden tub while two women: Both humans massaging his feet placing rose petals on the surface of the water to give it a pleasing smell. Gerra had did it, he has defeated the Shah and took over the Savannah. After the Battle of Ninagal the first thing Willis wanted to do was to get the hell out of there. With the chest containing the coin the Shah has given Willi's merc company, he'd figure he head straight to Alliria before Jerry and the survivors return. However with Achates urging, Willis decided to meet Gerra the new ruler of the Savannah.
Willis hasn't met the half giant personally, but based on his soldiers opinions on him, he's tough but fair besides Willis hasn't been executed for fighting for the other side. Usually the winners of the battles will end up doing scorched earth tactics meant every one regardless they're soldiers or not die. Willis has been on the receiving end of that a couple of times in his life he was happy to escape. Part of him still wonders what happened to Maho Sparhawk and Allistair Wren his friends. Maho has been under fire before he and Willis both fought together back at the Woodlands and he's a battle tested mage with years of experience. Willis was thankful for Maho since he saved his life a couple of times during that doomed expedition against the Toad Sages.
Alistair on the other hand has never seen a fight before much less a battle. The kid is the type who will if he has a paper cut, if there's anyone Willis was worried about it was Allistair. The last he saw them was a week before the battle where they gambled and drank while having some intimate time with some camp followers. Well it was mostly Willis but he kept it to flirtation though he had a lengthy conversation with an old bedwarmer of his a prostitute and medic named Anastasia who was once again attending the burn wounds of some soldiers. They were howling in pain saying that a Dragon attacked them Willis remembered himself laughing explaining that Dragons are rare around the Savanah. He really wished he took those claims seriously now.
Still Willis hoped that the two will be okay especially Alistair the kid doesn't need to experience this kind of shit. After arriving at the palace, Willis was lead away by three beautiful women who said that Gerra was coming to see him for a special mission. Apparently Achates told Gerra everything about Willis the removed his bloody clothing saying they'll be clean and that for now he'll wear more presentable clothing for Gerra. After cleaning his wounds, the women set upon shaving his beard and making feel comfortable. Willis wondered what job does the Half-Giant for him, why does he need Willis? As soon as they were done, the women began to dress Willis in golden red clothing while a servant came to the young man. "Master Willis?" he said in a savaanah accent.
"Dunno about Master," Willis shrugged. "But what is it?"
"Lord Gerra requests your presence," the servant said. "Follow me."
Willis rubbed his now smooth face with his fingers. "Was cutting my beard necessary?" he snorted. "A woman back home liked it."
"It gives you a mature look," the servant said his hands clasped behind his back leading Willis through the great halls. "But it distracts a person from their eyes and when you are speaking to Gerra, he requires your full and undivided attention."
"All right," Willis sighed. "Let's get this over with."
Gerra
