Unreasonable Old Fogies

"We're here because of that. I have a way to solve this," Elda said calmly. 

"I'm sorry Milady, but we can't go against the Lord's wishes," The guard at the left side of the door said. 

"If my father were to find out you didn't permit me entry given the importance of what I'm about to tell him, I doubt you'd be able to keep your head," Elda threatened. 

The two guards exchanged looks, they would naturally easily let Elda enter, but her family clearly told them to make sure no one disturbed them while they were in the meeting. 

"Did you say it would solve the problem?" The guard on the right asked. 

They were currently in a difficult position, if what Elda said was correct, then her father would most likely punish them for not allowing her to enter. But if she were lying, then they would be in even more trouble, but there might be a chance that the girls might be able to plead on their behalf. 

Elda nodded to his question.
