Meldos leaned back in the old, wooden chair, fiddling with a coin. His feet were on his desk, but his nonchalant posture certainly didn't reflect his emotions. Their old base in Castle Town had been ravaged by the new war and the many minions that had come with it. Thankfully, this old underground network of tunnels, their underground base that had been here for years, had held up nicely. The roof was supported by beams of wood and the passageways were lit with old metal-framed torches. Miraculously, it still stood. They had fled here, and the layout was fine. Sadly, most of the troop had been killed in the panic, with only the elites surviving. The smoke, the chaos... it was a wonder any of them had lived. The only gold that they had was in sacks that they had carried out... but it was enough.
Meldos returned to a normal sitting position, casting the golden coin on to the desk. He pondered an old map of Hyrule that had been in the guild for ages. It had been slightly defaced, with small, black spots discerning where their victims had lived. Without thinking, Meldos took out a inked quill(That the right term?) and drew a circle around Castle Town. Beside it, he wrote in a fast scrawl, "Ravaged by unknown enemy force. Impenetrable. AVOID!" He pushed it to the side, waiting for the ink to dry, and rubbed his face with his hands.
The sword certainly cuts both ways. This attack's ravaged our little society, leaving me with much less members, less funds, and less resources. But anyone who fled, and most likely anyone in the surrounding area is in an insane panic. They're completely disoriented. This is the perfect time for us to strike. We'd have the upper hand... but I can't make this decision alone.
He drew back one of the old, dusty, purple drapes that covered every doorway in this place. He didn't bother to stop and look at the royal family crest that was emblazoned on them in gold. There were six large bedding rooms, each with six bunks. This was more for the bandit's guild before the attack, built for mass accommodation. Then there was one large-ish room that held their resources and weapons. His halberd, however, rested in his room. He never put it in there. Finally, there was a small mess hall, more of a counter where you got food. Since it was much smaller now, it was more of a 'Get your own food' situation. He turned around, and saw the small wooden trap door that led to the surface. It was covered with old grass and sod, and they were in a fairly remote part of the field.
Deciding he should stop taking it in, as he had to memorize the layout, he turned to a passing bandit. She was a new recruit, and he had yet to learn her name. "You, um... Gywn, was it? I'd like you to gather all the bandits and send them to my office. We need to plan how we're going to keep functioning."
(Mysterie, hope you don't mind if I did that. If you do, just tell me and I can change it.)
