Snippet #2493450

"I must imply that I am sorry, your highness." Aurore said in a giggly manner. "If I weren't to act like an older sister to the prince or even regard the pact between our families, then the prince might not be longer a prince. You know the royal family and the Kamaran clan had been allied for several hundreds of years, all starting with the conquest of the Akadian empire by the Kamaran horde. The pact agreed that Akadia would remain a protectorate of the horde until it was loosened to allow the royal family sovereignty while the Kamaran make up the Akadian military. Akadians by the treaty can only defend their country as militia or reservists by law. All active military members you see in Akadia are of the Kamaran. Janosz here however is only half Kamaran by blood, yet is still my cousin or rather our mothers are sisters. His father was the former Hubnerian duke. If you desire to learn more about our country's history, you are welcome to ask."

Janosz chuckled and said: "Well I would really say that it is gossip. You don't recognize the way she looks at you or about how much she cares for you? I have ask her many times but she refuses me simply because we are cousins. Talk to her some time about it. She might be too shy to admit it but if she blushes, then you know that she has a thing for you." He said this to Darann outside of Aurore's audible range. "Just remember that while she is your protector, you might not realize what you are to her."
