Lothar did a double take before laughing heartily in realization. "You're right, boy... Well, that's decided!" And seeing no protests from the retainers, Ned issued orders. "Lock them up. Once my father recovers, he'll be informed about everything, and he'll punish them as he sees fit." Then, walking up to Frank, he began, "By the way, wasn't Yed saying he was conspiring with—" The cool voice of a woman interrupted before he could finish. "Hmm? It seems that things have gotten lively here. Did | make it in time?" Lothar and the Janko retainers all turned toward the voice and frowned when they saw who it was.
Ned strode forward, glowering as he demanded, "Who let you in here, Sif Lionheart?!" The woman in question was dressed in a leather skirt, a military jacket, and a black Draconian beret, escorted by over a dozen bodyguards as she alighted.

She casted a brief glance of disdain at Ned before looking around and asking, "Where's Yed? Why isn't he here to see me?" "Answer my question!" Ned bellowed at Sif, not cowed by her haughtiness. "Who let you in here?! This is Janko family property, and you Lionhearts have barged in here uninvited. What is the meaning of this?!" "Hah!"

He bawled and howled, even as he suddenly freed himself from the bodyguard's restraint on a burst of strength that cout of nowhere, and ran straight toward Sif. "What?" Sif frowned at the sight of his downtrodden state, her tone icy. "What is the meaning of this? Who did this to you?" "That's none of your business, is it?" Ned snapped at her bluntly.

Seeing Sif's eyes flash murderously while her bodyguards strode up, Ned laughed despite himself I'm Sorry, NEB. Dior but look around. This is Janko Gardens, not your home.
