Chapter 14: Enter Neolandia and Tracked

Couple of days Callum reached the border between Katolis and Neolandia. He reached the checkpoint. He dismounted his horse and went towards the guards of the borders.

"Halt. Before you enter Neolandia let me see you're identification(Don't know if they have identification in The Dragon Prince, but would be logical.)."

Callum raised his hand and waved it before the guard. "You don't need to see my identification." "I don't need to see you're identification." "I can go about my business." "You can go about you're business." "Move along." "Move along."

Two days before he got the emergency mission, he tried get the skill force mind trick. So he needed an person who has a weak mind. So obviously in the evening he woke Soren up and used the force to influence his mind. In his first try he got an notification from Palpatine. [Ding. Host has learned a new skill. Force Mind Trick(Common).] So those two nights he got Soren to clean his clothes, room and some parts of the castle(Soren feet smelled so bad in season 4 that Rayla woke up in disgust).

Callum mounted his horse and entered Neolandia. After about two hours he found the capital of Neolandia, Eboreus(For how it looks according to wiki like an dessert city with canals like in Venice). He galloped towards the gate, used the force mind trick on the guards and entered the beautifull city. All kind of shops, foodstands, taverns and pubs. He needed to get information on where Saleer was, so he went the place where every secret en information is spilled, the tavern. So Callum dismounted his horse, tied it up and entered the tavern called the The Winking Banther.

When he entered it reeked of smoke, perfume and many other odors. He walked towards bartender. Out of his back he grabbed an sketch he made of Saleer.

"Hello my friend. Can you tell me if you have seen a man that looks like this?" Callum showed his sketch to the bartender.

"I don't know stranger. If only you can give me something to refresh my memory. Maybe some coins or that exquisite armor will refresh it" The bartender put out his hand hoping to get some coin with an wretched smile. Callum sneakely used the force to choke the bartender. The bartender started cough and tried to get air.

[Ding. Host has learned a new skill. Force Choke(Common).]

Ignoring the notification Callum shouted "Can someone get help. I think the bartender is choking." Some of the employers went get some help. He with another employer helped the bartender up and got to the backroom. In the backroom he knocked the employer out and released the bartender from his force choke. The bartender started to breath regularly, but looked at the masked man in silver/grey armor in fear.

"Now tell me did the lack of air refresh some of you're memories or do you want to lack some air again." "No please my lord i wouldn't dare." Said the bartender in fear. "The man you're looking for is staying in the upstairs penthouse(Don't know an other word the upper floor luxury appartement).

"Thank you. See that wasn't so difficult. Now sleep." Callum punched him in the face and was knocked out. He took all the keys from the bartender. Callum went upstairs and saw two guards that looked like the mutated soldiers. He sillently took his sword out of his scabberd and walked calmly towards the guards.

The guards saw an mysterious person walking towards them with a sword in his right hand and his other hand behind his back. They ran towards him with there sword and tried to impale them. Callum dodged the attacks instead of parrying because it would make a lot of noise.(Think of the Star Wars the Clone fight where Dooku dodged Savage and Ventress attacks). Callum then swiftly used his sword towards the first guards throat, slit it with an elegant swing and went towards the second guard. The second guard swang his blade towards towards Callum's head. Callum dodged, kicked him in the chest. Callum grabbed the guards arm so that he wont hit the groudn hard and impaled him. He then slowly lowered the guard, dragged both guard that were coughing blood towards the door. Knocked at the door and went towards the side of the wall waiting for the room to be opened.

"What is the meaning of this. Master Saleer doesn't want to be disturbed." The guard then noticided the two guards laying on the floor coughing blood. Before the guard could say something again he got an sword through his neck. Callum then took his sword out of the neck of the third guard. He entered the spacious room and saw seven guards rushing towards him. Callum parried their attacks and waited for an opening. He kicked one of the guards to the side an other and made an somersault with his sword impaling one of the guards. He went swiftly towars the guard he kicked and sliced his throat. He eliminated the rest of the remaining guards and went towards the terrace.

He entered the terrace and saw Saleer sitting with two woman in an drunken stupor laughing and making out with one woman at the time.

"My ladies could you please leave us. Me and master Saleer have much to discuss." Said Callum with an bloodied sword in his hand.
