Luka quieted, watching the guard and Vandurai with increasing apprehension. "You know him?" he asked.

"Nope," Vandurai says. "But it's clear he has connections to my father, an emissary maybe?" 

One of the guards approached bearing handcuffs. Vandurai stops him with a hand. "No way I'm wearing cuffs. You try to put those on me and I'll blast you."

In a red mist a metal bow staff appears and talinel smack the cuffs out of the guards hands.

Luka shrugged. He didn't know Vandurai's dad. "I'll give you guys some money?" he offered, turning to face the guards.

Luka likely knows him by name and reputation but not personally. 

"Uhh, No," Vandurai says to her "Do not try to bribe them."

The guns in the circle around us cock. and the guard scrambles to pick up the cuffs.

"Don't do that either," Vandurai says laying a hand on Talinels shoulder. "We do not want them to hate us."

"Don't try that again." says the Guard Captain.

The guards just stare in puzzlement, but don't let down their guard.

The guards just ignored him. 

"Fraud. Deception. and Treson." The guard says, with an odd expression on his face

Vandurai gasps recognizing the expression, one her father is good at making. "Breath above." She curses. "I don't recall any of those things." She says remaining [Outwardly] calm. 

"Ohh." The guard says raising an eyebrow. "That private library when you were 9? Or that time at the bakery here 12 months ago or when you bribed the-" "Ok I get the point, but those were-" She cut off and sighed. "But I'm a royal! One of the five gem houses no less! You can't just arrest me!" "oh but we are, we are indeed." The guard says with a sly smile.

Well, if they aren’t going to stop him…

Kos walked up behind the guard, extending the small barrel toward him.

All these guards, distracted by the royal. He was rather clever, if he did say so himself.

They aren't going to stop you from leaving the group, because they only want Vandurai.

The guards are all alert and one turns to face you, he gestures to his gun and shakes his head.

Talinel looked at the hand then fell out of her stance. “ceart gu leòr, ach tha mi a’ tighinn leis. agus ma chluinneas mi aon droch ni cha bhi mi leisg”

Vandurai is put in front of the soldiers with 5 of them directly guarding her. Nobody understands the threat.

The rest are watching the everyone else in the group.

"It's not kidnapping; it's waiting until a government official comes and tells everyone it's a mistake, and then we can go on our way." Vandurai says

Spoiler

Fun Fact: That is not going to happen

IK that's why I nerfed it.

The guards march you to the dungeons of Agowell, near the grand bazaar and the Agowell palace (Agowell is under the jurisdiction of King Agowell as a province of the Alad kingdom. 

They escort Vandurai inside and into a cell, it wasn't nice but wasn't horrible either, it had a chair, a desk, some not-horrible bedding, and running water! She had that at home, but it was still fascinating to see how far their kingdom's ideas had spread. She also thought the running water was odd because why would a prison have running water?

The guards stop anyone else from entering, Trying to dispel everyone following her, inviting them to go visit the Grand Bazaar, or the Plaza of Godith, or take a tour of the palace complex.

Talinel stands directly in front of the guards grabs out her notebook and writes stuff down. She seems to be back to that behavior she had on the ship.
