Snippet #1908534

She intercepted the call to arms letter that was to be sent to her homelands, the messenger had pleaded she spare his life, but it was something she couldn't risk. It was little effort to destroy the body, a simple Terra attack took care of that. Taking up the letter she read it and set fire to it to destroy it so no one else could find it. As the remaining singed remains lay on the ground now consumed by the fire Solar walked away with a purpose. The solemn expression a clear indication she held no remorse for the life she just wasted. Her destination now is the City of Aerios to which she'll present herself as the warrior for her homelands and none would be the wiser to question her. In the time that it took for her to reach the outskirts of Aerios already so much had happened at the gates that the choas that had ensued was still pending by the time Solar reached it. She did not respond to the kind 'hellos' from the locals as she briskly made her way towards the gates with her companion Zoba in tow. A loyal friend Zoba, he'd been with her since she found him abandoned as a cub. His performance was astounding for a puma and in time she was able to give him a form of immortality so that he'd be by her side longer then what human aging dictated.
Although at the time it had taken her substantial mana to perform the spell she achieved it and spent nearly a year recovering. As her feet carried her to the gates she was draped in a satin purple cloak, hiding her face from those around her but revealing enough for them to know she was female. A light tinkling sounded with each step as she drew closer to the gaurds at the gates, and judging by their stances a few things had occurred that the tension couldn't be cut with a knife. Before she could pass through a few guards stepped into line before her one, the leader, shouted.
"Stop" to which she did, a brow raised in question.
"I am here to answer the call of arms" her tone was soft and held no humor.
The guard eyed her from feet to covered head, "Remove your cloak and announce yourself or you'll not gain entry."
A smirk escaped her, but she made no sudden moves to remove the hood of her cloak, her eyes assessing them from beneath the hood. The guards tension rose and the smell of fear began wafting from their very pores and she smiled sinically before her hand slowly slipped free of the cloak and bending at the elbow she reached up and brushed the hood from her head. A brow still raised she motioned to Zoba to sit as she heard a low growl from the beast.

"I am Solorlinna Malthalthar."
A few of the men glanced between one another and stepped back, her eyes brushed over them and the sheer sight of them backing up had her amused.
"Lady Solarus," the lead guard gave a bow before he stepped aside, "Forgive me, you've not been to Aerios for many years."
waving the others to open the gates he walked beside her as they made their ways through the gates.
"I had things.....to attend to, but I've returned and will answer the call to arms. From what I've seen others are already here that will do nicely and others..." her eyes touched over someone they passed, "simply wont do. I look forward to meeting these individuals but for now I'll be in my quarters." she stopped abruptly and looked at the guard. "It is still mine?" the guard nodded.
"Yes Madame." With that she was led to a well upkept pub with rooming above and after paying found her room and settled in. Zoba settling on the end of the bed.
