George: So how did all that turmoil start in the village?
Page 1
Colin: I didn’t let them harass the girl. It’s not on where we come from.
Panel 2
Pip: And concerning the wine, we usually settle these situations by meaningful discussion back home.
George: Great customs you have. However, you’d better not discuss anything with Count Ulrik’s thugs unless you have a weapon.
Colin: So far I thought you were all up against the Turks.
George: That would be an improvement.
Panel 4
George: Tomorrow we’re leaving early and going on through the forest. It takes longer but safer.
Ulrik: Not for sure, Mister George. Your new friends have caused me enough trouble already.
Panel 5
Ulrik: Time to take care of this business. (to the butler) Get me Kaspar!
Panel 6
Ulrik: I’ll give you one more chance. Take your men and bring those three here.
Kaspar: We’ll do our best, Sire.
Ulrik: I highly recommend that. Don’t bother to return here without them.
Panel 7
Butler: Do you want your herbal tea, my lord?
Ulrik: Of course. I won’t let those scoundrels give me stomach pain.

George: Wake up, sleepyheads! Time to go!
Pip: Now? It’s hardly even dawning.
Panel 2
Pip: (Yawn!) I could have used a coffee. And a bite for breakfast too.
George: Oh, give me a break…
Panel 3
George: You’re such splendid company! One is daydreaming all the time and the other can’t stop criticizing. Wait till we get to Lord Corvin…
Pip: I wouldn’t mind being there already! I’m feeling like a target here.
Panel 4
Kaspar: Will they ever get here…?
Panel 5
Thug1: It’s getting darn hot!
Panel 6
Thug 1: Anyways, lying in wait in bushes is not in our contract if I remember well.
Kaspar: What contract? The deal was that the Count doesn’t have us hanged if we work for him. Which reminds me, have we got the rope?
Thug 2: Sure, I do.
Panel 7
Kaspar: Awesome. Tie ‘em up real tight, especially the little pipsqueak and his sad-faced pal.
We cannot fail this time!
Panel 1
George: Also, you’ll have the chance to tell him what business you actually have around here.
Colin: Well, that might take up some of his time…
Panel 2
Kaspar: Stop, in the name of Count Ulrik!
Panel 3
Pip: What are we gonna do now?
George: You’re the smart guy, think of something!
Panel 4
Kaspar: No tricks, please. Kindly get off the cart so that we can tie you up. The Count can’t wait to see you.
Panel 5
Pip: Certainly, at once. Can I ask you a riddle first?
Panel 6
Kaspar: What?! You’ll regret it if you’re taking the piss.
Thug 1: Wait, wait! You know how much I love riddles!
Panel 7
Kaspar: Fine. You have one minute.
Panel 8
Pip: Right away: “Who says my name, destroys me immediately!”
