Set some rules first

Opening the gates, you step back to the steps leading up to Nicator's mansion. Holding up your hand you signal for attention from the twenty or so men who have collected in the courtyard. Several of them, you notice, were less fortunate than you and your four companions. The men were barely able to keep on their feet, several wounds were hastily bound and others were still bleeding freely.

"This household, and all the plunder currently here belongs to me and my men." Your gaze swept over the assembly and you watched each of the men nod in understanding. "On the good side..." You tell your countrymen "...consider this a safe haven to use as a base. We have food, some medical care and a few other advantages that you may make this a good place to stay. As you speak Leonoris steps to your side.

"I've closed and locked the room with the captives." He whispers to you "No need to trust these men completely." You agree whole heartedly, Galatians for the most part look out for each other, but every single one of you is a mercenary looking for easy money. A room full of coin, jewelry and other fine luxuries sitting open for anyone to see is too much of a temptation for anyone.

A roar of approval comes from the men as they file through the large open doorways. Following them in you see what has elicited the enthusiastic response. On the balcony that surrounds the main room on the first floor you see over a dozen of the most beautiful women in the whole city posing for the men's pleasure. It looks like Nicander's training had outstanding results, scanning the women leaning over the railings you don't see either Calyce or her sister. A small satisfied smile crosses your face as you imagine what you have waiting for you as soon as you can free yourself from getting the men settled.

"Listen up." Your words aren't exactly yelled, but they are loud and authoritative enough to cut through the excited rumbling from the men in the room. These women are trained to be pleasing. If you behave yourselves then I see no reason why they shouldn't practice their trade with you." A roar of approval silenced you for a full ten seconds but when you raised your hand again the motley group soon quieted. "Remember these women belong to me and my men, so you may not damage them." Looking up at the attentive slaves you add "And you women, remember that these men are my friends and I don't want you damaging them either." For a split second the room was silent, and then as the idea of these delicate slaves damaging the battle hardened fighting men beneath them a slow rumble of laughter built into a load roar.

The Galatians were organizing themselves and seeing to the medical needs of the injured and bringing food and drink from the kitchens. With the mood happy and relaxed you decided you could look around and try to find where Calyce was hiding herself and her nubile younger sister.
