"Traitor! he's a traitor to the Alliance!High Lord, you see, he's always colluded with the orcs!" Batheras found an opportunity to attack Ferdin.

"Shut up!" Dasohan pointed at Bathras and reprimanded, turning his head, Dasohan gritted his teeth and looked at Fordin, he just didn't know what he heard, he knew that Fording was the most honorable of them paladins, the most principled person, when he received the report, he felt that this matter could happen, and he also knew that there were orcs who had never harmed humans, and for Fordin, this orc would not hurt him if he didn't hurt humans. However, he never thought and never dared to think that Fordin would dare to defy his superiors and support the enemies of mankind.

"Tirio, I've been trying to be patient. Obviously, you're completely confused about the creature. I don't care what you believe is going on, and if you don't dispel this utterly ridiculous idea, I'll be forced to arrest you and interrogate you for collaborating with the enemy! You must stop this senseless act at once! Immediately! Immediately!" Dassaulthan yelled at Fordin, but unlike his voice, his eyes were full of pleas, begging Fording to change his mind......

However, Fordin's stubbornness was beyond his imagination: "Bastard, Saida, this is a matter of knightly glory, don't you understand!

"Shut up!" Dasuohan breathed heavily, and the Commanding Soldier pressed Fording down as well, "You have left me no choice, I must arrest you now for collaborating with the enemy!

With only one prisoner's cart, Ferding had to be tied to a horse and guarded by two soldiers. After a while, Dasohan walked over to Fording and looked at his old friend.

"Tirio, can't you let go?

Ferdin, who looked at Da Sohan very firmly, said, "You and I are both paladins of the Holy Light, and you should remember the teachings that we should follow......

Da Sohan sighed: "But, if you say the same thing in the cathedral, you will lose your life!"

"I never thought I'd be alive today, and if it weren't for this orc, I'd have died long ago. ”

"You!" Dassaulthan pointed at him, "stubborn! you damn stubborn! Nobody cares about you!"

"Go back now!" Da Sohan jumped on his horse and cried out with a frown, he didn't know how to help his good friend, the one of the Knights was sometimes even more stubborn than this one.

Stratholme was not far from here, and Fordin was sent there and imprisoned half a day later, but was not immediately tried.

Tirio sat in a small cell, adjacent to the Judgment Hall, where his trial would take place. There was only a small window in the cell, no bigger than Fordin's head, from which the sounds of business could be heard, as well as the sounds of activity in the noisy and busy market of Stratholme. Occasionally, he could hear the sound of a series of banging from the main square. The noise of the city is very different from the light-hearted, rustic noise of the Fireplace Castle. He had a strong desire to go back there now. He didn't know how his trial would go, but he clearly understood that no matter what happened in the courtroom, his life would be irrevocably changed. He thought of his family, and the affluent, laid-back life he shared with them. Leaving him alone, he wondered if he had abandoned his family and had a fanciful idea of only caring for himself. It's hard to say whether he regretted it himself.

Fording has been in custody for three days. Today he will be tried for betrayal of the land he has spent his life defending. From the moment he stood up, he knew that this was the end, and according to the case decided by the court, he could face either death or life imprisonment. He wondered if his wife would forgive himself if he was forced to raise the child alone. He laughed softly at himself. He used to believe that the only thing that could get in the way of him and his beloved was the enemy. What was wrong with that? Ferdin's never figured it out.

Stomp ......

The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and Fording wondered how anyone could come before the time for the trial? The latch clicked, and the door opened. It was his captain Arton.

Alton walked into the room gloomily. Furding was a little happy, shaking his friend's hand up and down.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Arton. Have you ever been home since I was arrested? Have you spoken to my wife?"

Arton shook his head: "No, they didn't let me visit your family, and I don't know if your wife, Carandra, was told. ”

"So, what about the orc?"

Why do you care, Tirio? It's your enemy! I don't understand why you care so much about it! That creature could never have saved your life! It's a brainless brute!" Arton cursed.

"Just answer me, Captain," Ferdin, said as calmly as he could. He looked into Arton's eyes, and he had to pay attention to his tone, Arton was probably the only person he had left who could speak.

"They've been interrogating the creature for the past few nights," Arton said. "You can tell by looking at his backbone that it doesn't give anything they don't know yet. I've heard some of the local guards brag about how they beat it to death. They are even ready to hang that vile and shameful beast in the square tomorrow morning. ”

Fordin's heart sank, the old orc was going to die, it was all because of him, it was all his fault, he wanted to make up for it now, but what to do, he was still in prison.

Sensing Fordin's nervousness, Arton whispered, "My lord, they may execute you for this, and if you confess and say that you have lost your mind, maybe they will show mercy and let you go." It's not worth dying! You're a paladin lord, for the Light's sake! People depend on you! You need to get out of this situation quickly!"

Her words were similar to Dasohan's, and Fordin knew that they were both doing it for their own good, but they couldn't do it themselves.

Alton was a little frustrated: "Adult, think about your children and wife!"

"My old friend, I must set an example for my son!"

Arton wanted to continue, but at this moment two guards walked in: "Alright, captain, we are going to press the prisoner to the referee's hall now." ”

Arton gave Fording a look, but Fording didn't look at him and followed the two guards directly, and Fording didn't know what kind of trial was waiting for him, nor what kind of special guests were waiting for him......
