After that rousing speech, everyone who was there to hear it were in shock. Not because of the language or the cadence, but that it had come from one outsider. Someone who was merely taken in by their leader. The captives in unison shouted, 

Captives: We shall fight with you!

Liger was shocked as he had seen this side of his childhood friend for the first time. Sayfuro on the other hand was affirmed of his suspicion, that he had finally found Patriarch Blade, long lost heir to the Blade empire. After this rousing speech, Liger, Sayfuro and Pattou were inside Liger's hut sharing a brew of hot tea. 

Liger still in shock would ask, 

Liger: Where did that speech come from? Even back in the orphanage, you would never speak up with such tone. Not even to the bullies, you would only strike at them and speak to me and the other bullied orphans in hushed tones. 

Pattou replied, 

Pattou: I guess you can say that after where you assigned me in the defensive earlier, combine it with the situation as it is, we cannot fight Corrvin like a rag tag bunch of bandits. We need more men and resources. We need to push back. 

Sayfuro then interrupts, 

Sayfuro: Gentlemen, while I agree with the sentiment let out by Young Master Patriarch, we do need to push forward and liberate parts of Torrs. Know that while I was in hiding, I am well aware of other resistance movements who also fight for the same cause, but are currently fragmented and spread out. Baron Corrvin knows of this and there will come a time that like candles left out in a storm, Corrvin will easily blow away with sweeping force. We need not only to bolster our defenses, but we also need valuable allies. I may not know them personally, but with Master Patriarch on the helm, we shall be a unified force that can finally liberate Torrs castle from the evil clutches of Baron Corrvin, in accordance to the mission left by...

Pattou still shaken despite being able to bring people to the cause interrupts Sayfuro, 

Pattou: This is what bothers me. With all due respect kind sir, the only cause I see is to end Baron Corrvin's rule. Sure I want lesser bloodshed between the common people but for me to lead? I'm still confused over you telling me and trying to prove that I am someone I am not! I may have the look, I may have this necklace that you claim is an heirloom. But what else? Inside I am still that orphan who wanders around and has almost always evaded capture. But on the outside, you build me up as if I am some lost heir?

Sayfuro: I cannot lead this. You were the one entrusted to lead the liberation...Ah I got it. Master Patriarch, another heirloom that I had left in my quarters in Western Torrs is the Legacy Sword. Only one of the Blade bloodline can wield this and remove the sword from its hilt. This was entrusted to me by the Late King and Queen apart from your life. But alas, I fear that Western Torrs is guarded by Corrvin's men. It is however the closest to this forest. 

Liger: What are you pointing at then?

Sayfuro: What I am saying, is that this union of rogues, snipers, and knights will finally gain ground and fight to reclaim their lives.

Pattou: *stands* Liberate Western Torrs? 

Sayfuro nods in agreement. 

Pattou: These men have long fought in forests and grasslands. Would it not be to the advantage of Corrvin as our men may no longer be familiar with fighting within town?

Liger then disagrees with Pattou's line of thinking 

Liger: You may be fooled that the men have been living in and off the forest, but never forget, they were made to fight here to escape from a dangerous life under the regime. And we have some of the newly turned allies who were once soldiers under Corrvin. They still bear the armor and insignia so we can use them to fool Corrvin's loyal soldiers. It is only a matter of placing something to distinguish them from the real soldiers.... 

Pattou then thought out, 

Pattou: What if I were to lead them? I made that promise to them and to all of you that we will see to it that this regime ends. 

Sayfuro then affirmed this saying, 

Sayfuro: You do know that Corrvin's men never return to an expedition or arrest order without any results or to retreat. Let me play as prisoner, Young Master. Once we are inside the heart of Western Torrs, there we strike. I know that Corrvin had placed in a Governor to rule on his behalf, he is the one that must be taken down for us to complete the liberation. 

Pattou and Liger have agreed to this and are now preparing for the liberation of Western Torrs. Liger would entrust the rest of the defenses and rogues who will be left as vanguard to his brother, Cyril Chance.

2 days after....

Sayfuro addresses the expedition forces who have pledged to join in, 

Sayfuro: Men, we have arrived at this point. We all have our roles and we must ensure that this works to perfection. But I will not be the one with the last say, I leave this with Young Master Patri...Pattou Blade.

Those assembled were surprised by the near slip of the tongue but as soon as the assassin stepped away and placed on his hood, the wandering knight, now sporting a shield looted from a deceased Corrvin army soldier along with his usual armor and Wanderer's sword, stands before the men. 

Pattou: I thank you all for joining with us. I know that this will be a high-stake gamble. Some of you may never live to see the end of this, some of you may survive, unhurt or injured. But do know, this liberation that we are to undergo is not only for our own futures but for the future generations to come. Today begins our mission, to retake and reclaim Torrs tower by tower from the men of Corrvin! 

Those assembled cheer the wandering knight who is now seen as the leader.

The plan is set into motion as Pattou will bring in Sayfuro along with the newly recruited knights as a returning Corrvin unit. Liger and his snipers along with some rogues will then position themselves atop the roofs and street corners, marching behind the knights.

With this, the Liberation of Western Torrs and its tower will commence.

Will this ragtag newly formed army succeed or will the light of hope be snuffed out? 

Stay tuned!

But in all seriousness, feel free to comment and that was Chapter 4. 

A/N: Now that it will be a holiday where I am at this coming Friday, I may let out 2 chapters on Friday in addition to the usual weekend uploads as scheduled. That being said, 6 chapters this coming week will be a possibility.

See you and have a nice day/night ahead! (Whatever time it will be once you read this)
