Snippet #1347613

Nereus wondered what was wrong with saying they were princes of the Water Nation. Although, this impromptu disguise would give them more freedom speaking to everyone in the gathering without much added pressure. So, he simply gave a refined bow as Oliver took the initiative to introduce themselves. But at his brother's next words, he inwardly released a sigh. He should expect that there would be certain moments where people might think of him badly since he simply speaks his mind. This was his honesty despite its tendency to be cruel. Noticing the discomfort of 'Blind' female at the inquiry, he could not help but apologize for this.

"I apologize for Oliver's choice of words. He did not mean any ill will towards you. It was simply him inquiring. Yet, I found Lady Ava a strong individual despite the situation you are in. I would have never guessed. Moreover, I do find the color of eyes refreshingly unique."

Speaking with much noble bearing that he had grown accustomed to. His words had no presence of false flattery or malice. The Elder Water Prince was simply implying the facts as he had seen and observed. At the end of his statement, he gave a sincere smile although it could not be seen by the female named Ava. Gazing at the other female now known as Bella, he was quite amazed at the humor of fate. The two females had come from the Dark Nation where he and Oliver's wives had come from. Based on what he had from the Queen Mother when he was young and from what he had observed now, it would be correct to say that rumors of barbarism were exaggerated ridiculously.

"It is nice to meet two lovely young ladies from the Dark Nation, Lady Bella and Lady Ava."

He presented his hand to them as the elder prince waited kindly for their hands. It was only proper to show his courtesy with a kiss upon their hands. When they did, he gently kissed the tops on their hands. Smiling with much manners, a thought wondered in his mind. When would he and Oliver meet their betrothed. After all, the princesses could also be hiding in the midst of this Grand Occasion. If their reactions would be similar with his sisters, Nereus had a strong belief that they would avoid meeting their husbands or even pretend to be someone else as they had done now.

"Would it be a bother if we asked you two to a dance? I do know you were already having much fun. Would you kindly share that with us?"
