"She will. I hope so, anyway." [i]Isabella murmured, sighing.[/i]
"No infections. No poison either. Why shoot someone if you don't intend to kill them? Fuсk up her stomach? It's weird.
...She mentioned you, you know. Kept reciting your name amongst others - 'Traci, Cain, Alric, Bella, Arthur" - just saying it, over and over.
I knew she recited his name. Arthur's. That was because she idolized him, but us four.. we mean something to her, too."

"We're helping her fight a war I imagine it'd be difficult for her to just brush us to the side." [i]Alric reasoned, looking down at Freya.[/i] "That would be a good look at it. Focking war sears memories in ya Mind..."

"No kidding.. Listen.. the Tribune's falling back, but they're off in Rivelria, where Freya's from. You'll be accompanying the group heading to the capitol, then split off. I hope you prepared for the sand. Mind you, Trayvens [i]hate[/i] sand. Seriously.. gets everywhere, from your sheaths to.. selective sheathes, and it's rough, and.. you get the point."

[spoiler]LOL... [/spoiler] "It seems as though you might be relying on the dojo for this sand battle then." [i]Alric reasoned, summing down what Bella had said.[/i] "We shall do our best to as to keep the fight. Am I right to assume that you are taking command of the Trayvern forces with Freya... Incapable?"

"I will attempt at it. Which brings me to another topic. With me departing from my role, as a lieutenant commander.. there is a rank available. Least, in this part of our army. I would ask that you take up that rank, for a time. You've assisted us for quite a while now, and I need all the good leaders that I can get."

"As grateful as I am for the offer, my lady, are you certain I would be the right fit? Some of your men... Might hold reservations to serve underneath a Witcher." "After all, nobody enjoy serving a monster. Especially not a Witcher... As exhibited in some of my very own soldiers."

"Don't give me that "muh lady" bullshit, else you'll be the next one in a hospital bed. I might be kidding with that, but that's seriously a turnоff. Just.. call me commander, hell, Bella works fine." [i]Isabella shrugged, then.[/i] "I could give a rat's ass about what you once were, and my soldiers do the same. They don't care for who you were.. but who you [i]are[/i], today."
-
"Of course, Commander. If that is the case, I would be honoured to accept the position." [i]Alric bowed his head deeply in thanks before bringing it up and standing tall. [/i] "I can assure you, I will do any service I must to win this war. Might I ask, however, what this position grants me? Simply a fancy title or control over a small number of your troops? Or perhaps something else...?"
