They agreed that she should go , because they had lost all hope and had only that one day left . That day Plaerdemavida dressed as a Moor , and painted her eyes so that she would not be recognized . She took thirty well dressed maidens with her . At noon they left the city and went to the camp , and there they saw Tirant at the door of his tent . When he saw them coming he sent word that they should go to Lord Agramunt , and that he could do nothing since he had turned all his power over to him . Plaerdemavida answered : `` Tell the captain that he should not refuse to see us , and even less to speak to us , because if that captain did such a thing he would be cruel and unjust . Since he is a knight and we are maidens , in accordance with the order of chivalry he must aid us , and give us his advice and his support . ''
