Althea wiped her face with her palm.
Husband, I know your EQ is low, but can it not be negative?
You know that these 'servants' had a higher level than me? You remember we're in their turf, yes?
Wait, one of these people was the Lord's right-hand men! This guy was already level 40!
Besides, if Dune Town took a while to upgrade (and it definitely would take a while, considering its location), they'd still need the Hall here, right?
One had to remember that Lords could blacklist people easily when using establishments. Even if they were not blocked by the gates of the territory, they could block them from entering any system building.
If they decided to lock the Mercenary Hall before the two of them could enter, then they'd have to go on foot and use the one in, say, Illyan Town.
And this was assuming no one would make trouble with them on their way out of the territory. Once they were tagged as hostile by the Lord, those sentries—even if they were few—could target them.
