The benefits of the life she has led, she can get her hands dirty when others need to keep theirs clean. Killing isn't a burden on her soul, she's made peace with that very early in her eternal life. But she isn't here to kill this man, at least not right away. She has information she needs from him and she will get it. Because if there's one thing that Kassandra is good at doing, it's her job, and she will find a way to get that information from him. If only her hidden blade wasn't in the saddle bag on her bike. It would be a much quicker task, but she does have the man's sword and a variety of other weapons these fools brought with them.
As the two men get the leader tied up, a Grand Master, she supposed would be his rank, if they're going by tradition, Kassandra lifts the man's sword and rests it along her shoulder. It feels natural in her hand, and she's so easy with it that even a casual observer would think her an experienced swordswoman. Or at least HEMA trained, as they are calling it these days. At least the art hasn't died out. She takes a few steps towards the man as the others finish restraining him, looking to the two as she does. "I'll take this from here."
Once she is good and sure that the room is empty, she swings the sword, stopping it only an inch from the knight's throat. "I don't know about you, but I figure most of them out there don't really have the inclination to torture or kill people." She moves the blade closer until it is touching his flesh. "Unfortunately for you, I'm not them. I'm really good at killing, actually. Have quite the history of it. Even taken down some knights in my time. Better equipped ones than you and your men. I've faced armies by myself."
The man stays silent, tightening his jaw in defiance.
"You like to pretend you're strong, hm?" She clicks her tongue, tapping the sword against his cheek for a second before switching to her original tongue. "<You claim the name Knights of Byzantium and yet I do not know of your order. Why do you pursue the girl? Who do you serve?>" The language flows from her effortlessly, but his expression tells her everything. He does not speak it, he does not understand the language that was spoken in the ancient city of Byzantium. Even if he spoke Byzantine Greek, he would have understood enough. But he didn't. "You take a name, but you have no connection to it. What is your name, knight?"
"I am General Gregor." His response is curt. Kassandra dragged the sword across his cheek a bit, drawing blood. "I need more than that Gregor, why are you after the girl? Who do you serve?"
