Jack couldn't leave fair Christina to explain this all herself, not after everything she'd already been through.
"Sir, I must speak to this! Miss Maria and I went looking for Miss Christina, and when Maria found her, she was nearly overwhelmed by a large gang of bandits. Miss Maria herself fought off several of them and I -- I helped take care of the rest."
Jack took a deep breath. "By the time it was over it was raining and the flash flood blocked our path back to the train, so we waited out the storm. But you must know, sir, that your daughter is a most honorable woman. And as for Maria..." Jack stared at Maria for a moment and tried to conceal his newfound infatuation for her. "Miss Maria put herself in grave danger for Christina, and I believe saved her life. You owe her a great debt, sir."
He paused for a moment to let that sink in. "Now, the question remains: how will this party protect itself from bandits? Because you clearly have not considered it before. It's a miracle you made it this far!
