When Laura noticed this scene, she understood why the knights didn't intervene in the disturbance.
Because today they were to cross the border into Hamlet, but the soldiers did not join them.
They were to head towards the Barbarian Tribes under Bruce's leadership.
Although Hamlet had been a hot topic these past few days, and everyone knew about it—even she heard about it while buying medicine for her injuries.
But as nice as that sounded, the refugees weren't fools; if things weren't right, they might just turn around and flee back the way they came.
And last night's massacre was to address this problem, with the Order of Knights giving their answer with the lance.
It served as a warning to the refugees about the fate of those who tried to come back.
Laura even suspected the disturbance was instigated by the Eagle Flock hiding among them, because the timing was too perfect.
Did those knights ever take off their armor to sleep?
