Introduction
Though this ploy may seem to have no faults to Axandra’s current rulers, forcing their daughter to act as a tool seems not to bother them at all. They’ve even been so bold as to invite those of other races… which many citizens see as an outrage of common ethics. Though of all the things going on… who might foil the plots of one individual lord. One entity that has taken this invitation to use as a ploy… instead of peace he plots conquest.

"Ok, ok... before one of us ingures one another..." he walked over and grabbed his sword, sheathing it and then looking at James again, smiling underneath the helmet he wore "i am honourable but not as trained as i should be... i would like to ask wherether a person like yourself could give me a bit f a refreser course on fighting..." it had been some years since Tiat had been home and he hadn't even finished traing when he left, the reason why he wasn't very good.

"Where do you think you're going?" Master Kato asked sharply.
"I'm going to take a walk around the castle. I hate being cooped up in this room," he said dismissively as he exited the room. The elf sighed.
"He has that look in his eye. Of all the princes to be saddled with, why do I get the wild one?" he asked himself.

The Gnome watched. “Well… by my calculations at your age and race combined with the racial prejudices and xenophobia would make it pretty high. As most bipedal evolved primates tend to rely on others of their same low level of evolution thus they wish to protect their good offspring from foreign influence while the rotten ones are often left with who ever is willing to train them. Thus your probability was high for if a elf trains a human the directive answer to the equation of probability is seventy nine and a quarter percent. Well I’m off to my vent…” The gnome said before slipping back in to the crawl space.

She found the woman friendly, charming and somewhat without prejudice. There seemed to be no formalities, something that Lillith never came across much. It was rather refreshing to her. Returning her smile she watched the woman paint a beautiful scene, just like out of a book. It seemed so idyllic, it would have been a great escape if she could just hide away into the piece of art. It was a welcomed change to the princess, it may have been strange to outsiders but she enjoyed the simple things in life. Exhaling a deep sitting sigh, she looked back up at the ceiling, the ornate paintings up above and the heavy marble pillars. This ball room was everything she, Lillith, wasn't.
Lillith had been well taken by the painting that she completely forgot to ask the woman of her name,
"I am ever so sorry to interrupt you once more, but may I ask you of your name?"

Of course, he didn't really mean this. Prince Atton exasperated him sometimes, well, most of the time, but to tell the truth, he'd be a lot more bored without the young human stirring things up and coming into conflict because of his strange nature.
*
Atton, for his part, yawned and stretched as he walked through the halls of the castle. It was beautiful, he had to admit that. Still, it seemed so lonely, a bit like a prison. Of course, he always equated castles with prisons. It was out in ride open spaces or in the hustle and bustle of towns, with the danger, the exotic substances, the pretty women, and the interesting people that he felt truly at home.
He grinned slightly when he saw a couple of woman in a great hall, one knitting a tapestry as the other watched. Both were pretty and had yet to meet his acquaintance. He might as well ask them where he might be able to slip out of the castle for a few hours.
"So, anything in particular you're weaving in there? Because I got a few ideas. Would liven it up a bit if there was an faun and a nymph dancing the Remmingold," he said cheerfully.

"So, anything in particular you're weaving in there? Because I got a few ideas. Would liven it up a bit if there was an faun and a nymph dancing the Remmingold," his voice echoing throughout the great hall.
For a little while she thought about what she could say, every bone in her body told her to retort something quite audacious in turn but, Lillith knew who he was. She could afford to say anything that could bring any kind of shame onto her or her family, god forbid! Sighing, she listened on to Ilanna,
Ilanna smiled, “I don’t think the lord and king would appreciate that. Satyrs are bad examples for fine young ladies, I mean, the represent lust, passion, fertility, and virility, all very bad things for young unmarried ladies”.
She couldn't help but smile at that, any one would have. She looked up at the young man, he didn't seem like a power hungry, crazy lunatic. Here, to do business, he seemed rather kind and funny, something she hadn't seen in a while. A little relieved about the nature of this particular Prince, she gave him a heart warming smile. Her mannerism and gestures had quickly changed into her very own "royal mode", something she had laughed about in private. Nevertheless, it had been drilled into her head from a very young age, she couldn't help.
She gave him a quick curtsy, "I do agree with her, the King might just have a heart attack, seeing such a painting." Taking a small step away from the prince and the Artisan, Lillith couldn't help her curious nature, "And what are thou doing here? Have thee gotten lost?", asking him quite amused.

"I'm just looking around, Princess. I'm not the type to sit in my rooms, complaining about ungrateful peasants," he told Lilith with a grin before turning to Zakia and giving him a quick bow.
"I am Prince Atton of Valorum. Can't say I have a particular job in my kingdom, but I do have rather brilliant ideas. For example, I wouldn't presume to suggest a dove as a sobriquet for this lady here. What if she doesn't like doves? Or maybe she gets that whole "princess duty" thing all the time? I know I do. Regardless, I think the marking of a future queen is for her to decide on her own what she would like upon this lovely tapestry, if she cares at all."

On the way to her chamber, she couldn't help but think about those two men. Potential suitors, here to ask for her hand in marriage, just so two kingdoms could find unity and confine in peace. Really? Was it all worth it? Yes it was, of course it was. No not again, I am not debating this matter, I must sound crazy if anyone was to hear me argue with myself!, she thought to herself, shaking her head slightly as if to move all the doubts out of her head.
There was something dark about Lord Zakia, not only his clothing, but the way he spoke, it wasn't apparent yet she could feel it - or was it yet again her paranoia? "I've had enough of this already!", stomping up the few stairs until she reached the floor she lived on. "Oh and what about those two women following him! How very odd!!!" she burst out loud, she had annoyed herself just thinking about that man. Reaching her chamber, she flung the door open and slammed it close behind her.

Thank you for your time.
[OOC] A Crown of Chains.
The world of Ithia a place commonly filled with war and conflict. Many kingdoms fight against one another all for a chance to tip the scales in their favor. It is here that Axandra a Kingdom upon the fringes of the massive Dwar’Vic mountain range puts forth the only chance of peace they can think of. A ball to wed off their daughter as to combine their kingdom with another to create one dominate power to keep peace in a land of war.
Though this ploy may seem to have no faults to Axandra’s current rulers, forcing their daughter to act as a tool seems not to bother them at all. They’ve even been so bold as to invite those of other races… which many citizens see as an outrage of common ethics. Though of all the things going on… who might foil the plots of one individual lord. One entity that has taken this invitation to use as a ploy… instead of peace he plots conquest.
