Aleiia-Serria

"None have called me Master ever, milady. You do an old Serpent honor."
Aleiia smiled graciously just as Kerian spoke.

"Oh, Great Midgard Serpent! We are thankful for your concern about our lives, but we cannot abandon a friend and ally. For, what is a future ruler of a kingdom if she will not risk herself to save even a dear friend? I, of course, pledge to defend Princess Aleiia-Serria with my life, but maybe you can be of some assistance as well. Great Serpent, will you not lead us to Miss Nerine? Surely you are more protection than we will ever need."

Aleiia looked over at Keiran with a bemused expression. He pledged his life in her defense? He was not a Knight, or ever a Squire, he needn't make sucha pledge. Her expression dropped as the serpents tail whirled around and poked Keiran hard in the chest. "I come here with intentions of help and aid, and you try and CHARM ME, boy! Such arrogance!" He boomed causing Aleiia to grip on to Keiran's hand a little harder. She relaxed when the serpent did.

"Though, I know you only did it to aid your friend, therefore I forgive you. Besides, you named my race, I have not heard it's name in quite a time, you must be a learned fellow." He said and then turned it's attention back to her. "Milady, you really should better inform your betrothed on how to deal with allies, but you are both young..."

Aleiia's eyes went wide. "B-betrothed?" She looked over at Keiran and saw her hand, and pulled away bashfully. "We are not betrothed, Master." She said, she was a princess and to most the mistake wouldn't have caused such a reaction, but since she knew soon she would have to take a mate, A King. The idea scared her. She felt her life would no longer be hers once the mate was chosen, and it would be chosen for her, rather then a choice of her own. Though his word were tipped in magic, they still ring true. I will tell you where I saw your friend, this, Nerine. Though, if I was to actively aid you, then you would be in my debt, Princess, by Law of Nature do we Midgard Serpents take our debs highly. I would love to help you of my own free will, but it would fight my very nature, and this is something I can not do. So.....so you agree to be in my debt?"

"A debt." Aleiia frowned. She knew of trickery, she once made the mistake of crossing a Fairy ring in Morinae, she was stuck answering riddles and evading half truths until dawn. " How do I know you have even seen Nerine? you described her well enough, but it isn't hard to describe an Atlantian? Most of the women match that description." She said, proudly. She may be free spirited but she wasn't a fool. She was to be queen some day, her father made sure would make a good one. "Prove yourself, Master, and perhaps I shall take you up on your offer."
