Ah...*BUMP!* Nobody posting, so I guess I'll need Corialis to answer Mivim's question.
**********
Corialis stared at the man who stalked into view in the doorway, standing behind the fallen figure of the Captain who'd been attacking.
"What in the world is going on?" the man demanded and Corialis reflexively pointed toward the fallen guard Captain.
"He's attacking the mages."

Jack managed to rise into a crouched position, balancing mostly on the flat of his right foot and his left knee.
Obviously, we've underestimated the Mages', he thought.
"I must take my leave of you," he spoke loudly enough for most to hear, "But the next time you show weakness, one of us will be back..."
--------------------
Jack Varian disappeared in a cloud of red smoke, a telltale sign of a specific assassins' guild, The Red Knights.
"One of who?" Mivim asked, confused.
One of the mages would definitely know about the Red Knights. Even so, the only knowledge they would have would be that they are armor-wearing, blade-wielding spellcasters.
THERE! How does everyone like my little story twist? Yay? Yes?

"The Red Knights," Saehenine said grimly, folding her arms. Her eyes flashed black with anger before returning to their crystalline blue. "It seems there are more players in this game than we thought ... or perhaps we are playing more than one game."
"Jack," Zillar shook his head, shocked. "Jack. The captain of our guards was an assassin. How did we not know? We trusted him."
Saehenine laughed. "I trust no one, Zillar, and neither should you." She spoke lightly, but underneath her words was an ominous tone.
There was silence for a moment, then Saehenine looked over at Mivim. "It seems you just earned yourself a promotion."

Mivim wasn't sure what to say, so he just nodded.
Then, "Wait a second...you don't mean..? Captain?"

By the way, since we can have multiple characters, anyone can feel free to make up other members of the Red Knights. Now that I've created them, I rather like the idea of more members springing up from time to time.

"You've certainly proved yourself loyal," Saehenine answered, the added with a slight edge to her voice, "And since the rest of our guard is nowhere to be seen, I see no reason to promote one of them above you. So yes, Captain Mivim."
Without another word she swept out of the room, sparing only a significant glance at Zillar and Anjala who silently nodded.
"We should go too," Anjala said.
"Yes. You don't mind if we leave you to clean this up do you?" Zillar said to Mivim and the woman who'd come with Saehenine. To Mivim he added with a wink, "Well done, Captain."

Whoo! Go Red Knights!!! Corialis hesitated, then shook her head. "Go on. I can help clean up." She bent to right the table, hair falling to hide her face as she added, "And so can those two outside here. Tramontayne...Chinook. Come inside." The two men stepped around Mivim and glanced around the room, sending quick searching glances at Zillar and Anjala, then moving to conceal Anaz at a tiny gesture from Corialis as she pulled the table back up.
