Chapter 82

There was a look of confusion on the face of Joan and Lucas when they saw the men drop their weapons and fall their knees refusing to raise their heads.

The slapped coomander who must have been waiting for them to come out with Joan came into the room looking impatient. He opened his mouth in surprise too seeing his men on their knees.

"What is the meaning of this nonsense" he halfed yelled at them.

"Take a look at his hand" one of them said pointing at Lucas.

The commander looked at Lucas'hand and immediately fell on his knees too.

At this point Joan could no longer take it as she wondered what they saw in his hand that they recognize. She reasoned maybe they also recongise her sword just like the men did back in their land.

"What is the meaning of this, what is happening?" Joan asked totally perpexled.
