Like all professionals assassins have a creed. It might not be lofty or idealistic, but it sets standards for conduct. When Jason comes across an attempt to rape and kidnap the cruel and beautiful Lady Xena, he rescues her and her maid. He finds her beautiful, grateful and aroused by the spilling of blood and Jason's physique. She encourages him to take her as a reward, there on the road and he is happy to do so. Pleased with his sexual prowess as much his ability on the battlefield, she wants him to stay with her and provide safe passage to an inn where her soldiers will be able to protect her. There he will be her guest. She is as cruel as she is beautiful and although he is on another mission his creed insists that he comply with her request-and he doesn't mind in the least.
