Can't afford to offend

The two Turner family guards, initially bewildered by the cart's contents, now wore expressions of shock and disbelief, as if they had just witnessed a ghostly apparition for the first time in their lives.

"Are those not the uniforms worn by Lord's personal guards?" one of the Turner family guards stammered, his voice trembling, as he pointed a quivering finger at the lifeless bodies on the cart.

The other guard's face contorted with concern as he spoke, his voice equally shaky, "So, does this mean these are the Lord's personal guards? I saw them accompanying the Lord this morning. What in the world has transpired?"

Their expressions soured further as their eyes locked onto two specific corpses on the slightly larger cart: one resembling a portly figure adorned in extravagant clothing and the other an elderly man dressed as a butler.
