Arvia & Hugo

It wasn't what Arvia had expected to hear on her first day at the heir's camp. The lightning prince and his guard had been killed. Arvia gasped and turned to Hugo, knowing the guard had links to the lightning kingdom.
The news had a different effect on everyone. Toma, the boy who had introduced himself as the Solar prince made the remark that they should break out of the barrier and face Chaos head on, which clearly did not sit well with everyone.

Hugo felt his blood run cold at the news. He had friends in the lightning kingdom, friends that he didn't want to lose. He glanced down at Arvia who had turned to look at him. No doubt the heiress knew of his worries. He shook his head, indicating now was not the time to be worried about him. It would be here that Chaos would eventually come for and he knew that it would be by her side that he would stay.
"We must stay at the camp and protect our charges." Hugo said, speaking to everyone. "If chaos takes another one of you all the kingdoms will be in even greater danger."

Arvia was shocked to hear Hugo speak so passionately. He rarely spoke in front of strangers but obviously this topic was enough to make him feel the need to speak. Arvia, for her part, nodded. She knew her parents would want her safe and that this camp was the best place for it. But, she also agreed with what the fire prince had said about preparing themselves. They would need all the preparation they could get if they were called on.

Arvia smiled, light-hearted socialising didn't come easily to her whereas training her powers and taking control was something she could handle.
"I agree with the fire heir." She said, nodding at him and then glancing around at the others, "We've got to be ready for whatever happens next."
