Without a detectable mood tone, he states, "You are not familiar with protocol."
He sighs and looks him over, "Also paranoid."
Corvus just starts to walk, "Follow me. You are my attache for the day."

Part of his lip flared with anger. He didn't like his flaws being pointed out. These protocols were like learning a new language at the age of 30. However, he was satisfied that Corvus saw this as simple paranoia, and not as something more.
Surely the guard at Canterlot's palace wear similar armor to his. That's advantagous.
Suppressing his expression, Cen walked alongside Corvus and nodded.
"Yes sir."

"Stay within eye sight while we travel, but when we arrive at the palace, you will need to stand-by at the barracks. I will not be long though." They approached the gate.

Cen gives a stiff nod, showing no hesitation.
"Yes sir." He responds, looking about with a small smile. He takes out his small pouch and takes the pass out.

"Your words about the night guard shift have troubled me greatly, Private Cen. I feel the camp has grown very complacent, you included. Montfort is on the outskirts of the capital city, this is true. However, that does not make our position immune to enemy action, as I told you yesterday. I almost feel the soldiers of this encampment have forgotten that they are the absolute last defensive fortification between the outside forces and the capital's main population. I took the liberty to tour the grounds, and there are many changes I am going to recommend to the Acting-Captain when we return."
When they got to the gate, he returned the salutes of the two guards and said, "The Private is with me, gentlemen. Stay safe." He walks past, and is utterly unchallenged. Yesterday, this gate was subject to a particularly harsh inspection by him, as he found the posted men there very unready. He is pleased now to see the gate vigilantly guarded, however his keeps this pleased feeling to himself.
Glancing to Cen, he makes a waving-off motion with his gauntlet, "Put the Pass away. You are on official duties as my aide."

That last comment made Cen frown. He was hoping to relax and explore Canterlot, not be stuck guarding another soldier. If worst came to worst, he could just slink away. Private Cen was very skilled in CQC takedowns.
He stayed close to Corvus and nodded with a small, reluctant grunt.
"Yes, sir..." He responds, looking offhandedly at the suddenly energetic guards.

"Welcome to Canterlot."
He took in a deep breath as they stepped from the camp, and into the edges of the city.
[Exit Corvus]

"Hoc est finis." Cen muttered under his breath as he stayed behind for a minute. He took another moment to look around before following Corvus.
[Exit Private Cen]

"Oh shite..." Alexander groans and rises from his table. He looks around the walls for the little hole he frequently uses for...reasons. He smiles when he finds it. Right behind the Medical Tent, the sly little spy crawls through it. He chuckles, surprised that the soldiers hadn't found it, and makes his way to the City. [Exit Alexander]

[Enter V disguised as Captain Helmsut (Permission from Luna to come all the way from the docks]
As V approached on horse back he looked around at the camp and sighed softly. This was to be his home for the next couple of days while he pretended to be their captain. He knew what he must do while he was here and the danger it ensued. He paused outside of the camp for a moment and hopped of the horse. He would be close enough to be seen by anyone around.

[Enter Corvus with Cen and NPC lawmen]
Corvus asks nothing further of Cen, and walks silently towards the Command Post.

Shackled and unarmored, Cen follows behind Corvus, and is escorted by the Lawmen. He kept his head low and eyes to the ground.

He headed to the Stockade, and turned Cen over to the detention guards without saying a word to Cen.
Corvus still had work to do.

The officer took Cen into the Stockade, both not saying a word. Cen didn't look too sad, or devistated. Cen seemed pretty nonplused by the whole experience.
[Exit Cen]

He spoke a moment with the lawmen after Cen was escorted into the Stockade. He made requests for information, and thanked them for their help.
Still with much to do, Commander Corvus headed straight to the Command Post to start his follow up investigation.
[Exit Corvy-worvy]
