Yes

Mira was allowed to walk out. None of the guards followed her. Marius still had her sword, but she wasn't going to need it.

Strange, she didn't recognize the stonewalls. She was at a stairway, but Marius asked to take his entertainment from the pens. She assumed that was below.

The looming sense of evil didnt abandon her. It was hard to think, something about the place intoxicated her, and in ways that were eerie and unsettling.

She ended up in a courtyard, where several guards patrolled. Some had the look of mercenaries, and others of barbarians, and some werent even human.

"This army is a rag band... I should tell marius he needs to improve their discipline" she wondered out loud, but no one appeared to have heard. She saw large cages in the other side of the courtyard, so she crossed the distance to get to them.

She found a hand of women, all of them fair, some of them knights, some rangers. One had a slenderer look, more delicate features, except for lush red lips and large eyes. The brunette, even covered in mud, had a worldly feel about her.

"Mira!" One of them called her. Of course, Mira slowly recognized them. They were her companions and friends, why were they locked in a cage?

"Atma. Why are you in a cage?" Mira asked, it all felt like a dream.

"... how cruel of you to ask, dont you remember? our unit was overtaken at the moment of our greatest triumph, when our armies were about to crush the devious demon armies of Marius, the incubus" one knight says, but another puts a hand on her shoulder "dont... look at her eyes, at the way she is staring at her. She is under some sort of spell"

There was a silence. Mira tried to think, but it didnt make any sense. "Marus asked me to bring him tonight's entertainment. Which of you wants to go?" Gasps of shock and horror, and of course they would. They were her friends, most must have know how much she loved Marus, and how it pained her to make this task. In a show of friendship, none of them volunteered.

"... thank you, you are all good friends. But one of you must go, we dont want to upset him" There were some tense moments, but eventually it was Atma, of the voluptuous body that stepped forth, to the protests of the others. She spoke a few words to them, of the inevitability of their situation. But she swore she would fight to the end.

"The Goddess forgive you, Mira, for you dont know what you are doing." there was something odd with her friends, why were they behaving like that? Mira didnt bother locking the cage door, as she didnt really see the need. "I thank you, Atma, for what you are doing." Atma noticed how Mira left the cage open, and though perhaps her friend wasnt entirely lost, and maybe the paladin had a plan.

"Can I have a bath first, Lady Mira? I am afraid I stink, as you can see my conditions were less than perfect." Atma was a bard, and had always be vain. Mira chuckled, of course she would want to look presentable to Marius.
