Puppet (1)

Rafael parted ways with Annalise right after their talk of her no longer being a maid so that she would return home before the sun officially set and the land would be dark. Rafael was not as familiar with the land as Annalise was so he also needed to leave quickly to find the path he was learning to use.

On his way back, Rafael came across guards walking around adding fire to lanterns on posts so they could see who was trying to approach the camp. He heard his name being called to sound his arrival and give him entry into the camp without being attacked.

Rafael rode inside the gates of the camp and went straight to where his knights were. He passed guards who were looking at him, some curious about what he went to do and some wanting answers to when they were going back out to fight. 

Since the guards had been hellbent on avenging Martin, they were not made aware of the truce yet.
