"Now that you have killed the commander, I have no choice but to look at you as an enemy of Localis..."
Yeah, just ignore everything that happened the minutes before. The loud shouting about assassins, said commander throwing the girl off her horse and repeatedly attacking them with the intent to kill, although they had a legal travel pass and didn't attack anyone themselves until way into the hunt (to defend themselves).
With just this sentence the author has made him a complete moron. Si tacuisses, philosophus mansisses.
Writing like that REALLY pisses me off.
