"So let me get this straight... Edwin is going to pose as Lucas.... Ariesti is going to be a guard now.... Svein is driving the carriage... Art, you're a knight as well...? So... What, exactly, am I?" Cinder asked as she folded her arms over her chest.
"I think it's obvious." Svein said as he came back in with a woman. "You'll be as Edwin's guest...?" He pointed out and gestured for the woman to go over to her and take measurements. "We need to get you in a better dress... and then we can have someone else in come in for armor for them." He instructed. Before Cinder could protest, she was taken by the woman.
"Oh this is going to be wonderful to see...." Svein chuckled as he looked at Art with a playful smirk on his lips.

It was a simple plan, Art would guide the cart with her horse along with Ari who rode hers she looked over to Ari who looked almost as though she was matching the armor she wore, she stood confidently, "it amazes me how that armor suits you, I know you don't know much about your mothers existance but surprisingly in that armor you kind of make me think of her" her horse galloped on, Edwin was not pleased in his tight fancy suit, in fact it was tighter and looser in all the wrong places, he held his head into his hand and looked out the window to the woman he secretly adored silently staring in amusement as she paused as him and he as her. His eyes never strayed from her.

Cinder chuckled as she looked at the hopeless knight in the carriage with her. He was gazing out at Ari, it was making her sick. She shook her head and took out a fan and gently fanned herself. She was in a rather tight deep red corset, accented with black. The skirt to her dress was black, with a sheer cover. "Why won't you just admit to each other how you feel?" She sneered as she seemed to glare daggers at him. "It's rather annoying hwo you two look at each other like love-sick puppies." She pointed out.

Love sick was an understatement, his eyes strayed from Ari, "I'm simply keeping an eye over her if you truly must know, I've watched her grow up, in all due respect I'm no more then a knight to her and I will go to great lengths to assure her dreams and desires are met." His eyes blglaring back at Cinder, "does it sicken you that others want to be happy around you, you seem to be resenting very much the idea that I apparently love my princess and you seem to make it quite apparent."

Cinder couldn't help but laugh at the poor soldier. Her eyes held an amused glaze in them and she covered her chest with her fan. "There is no 'apparently' about it. At least when others around me love each other, they admit it instead of staring at each other like some sick person. Both you and her have that same damn look. It's disgusting that neither of you want to admit to each other how you feel. Instead, you hide behind a mask.... because that is what Hades beat in to you. He is the one that has told you not to fall for her, and told you to watch over her. He is the one that is torturing you, and the rest of Cyllaron. And it's fucking disgusting that you don't see it. You think he is so grand.... but he isn't. He is absolutely terrible, and needs to be killed. He needs to be removed of his title!" Cinder snapped as she became a bit more passionate about the issue. "he does nothing but lie and hurt everyone. I bet you he wouldn't even care if you died, even if you were protecting her! He is nothing but vile... and he will be stopped." She added and turned her attention to look back out the window.

Edwin bagged the wall with a tight fist as though if he did so he would be heard. He was trembling and clearly angered by the words that parted Cinder's lips. "That man took me in when I had no one, trained me to become an elite soldier and as much as I'm apart of this game of charades with my princess I don't take kind to ill words to the man who saved my life" he knew him and Cinder wouldn't get along, but everything she said she wasn't wrong, he was beaten senseless, and the thought of Ari and him running off together or being alone together for a long period of time would unleash the gods wrath. The scars along his back and arms proved it, he never knew his father and his mother died shortly after the age of 6 due to marauders that attacked the small town closer to the Slave market...he was taken by them and bought by Hades who took pity on the boy. This allowed him site of the princess and watched her grow, perhaps it was this that made him feel unworthy of her, a slave, who was saved, trained to be a killing machine and now obsessing over the girl without striking anger within anyone.
He leaned forward body hunched over his arms that hung over his bent knees. "...You're not entirely wrong" he implied looking up at Cinder, "...Hades has unique ways in making sure his words are heard, and like a puppy I follow...that is the duty I was bestowed and also the reason why I'm one of his cherished soldiers...but I can't bring myself to betray the princess, perhaps this is the reason why I do whatever she tells me to do"

Cinder leaned in towards him as well, her eyes narrowed, but a smirk on her lips. "I was apart of that army long before you were even born, boy. I know he can be kind when he wants, but at the same time he would watch you die with a smile on your face while planning on who to bring on next." Cinder told him. "I know full good and well about Hades... but you are being fooled. His kind heart at times is a front. We learned long ago how he really is. He is brainwashing you, Sir Knight." Cinder said softly and sat back with a small frown. She was once the same way.
"I was the runt of my family... always told I would never amount to anything, except be a concubine or a sex slave since I was so small and weak... It almost came true, as well. My family had been taken in by slave traders.. and much like you, I was to be sold and bought by Hades. He told me all these miraculous things that I could become, and with his help he said it could easy be achieved.... And I fell for it. I was a young, broken girl when this happened... And I trained with him. I never wanted to disappoint him, I let him beat me down.... because I knew he promised to make me better. And he did..." Cinder softly told Edwin while looking directly in to his eyes. "Like you, I was cherished for the killing machine he morphed me in to... And that is where things started to go bad. Years and years later... you've probably never heard of a war group.... I'm not saying it's name, some say it is taboo... but I was part of it... we did horrible, horrible things because he said to. It wouldn't surprise me if he honestly had a part in your mother being killed." She pointed out, a smirk on her face, but a sad one. "Do not count yourself loyal to a man who says he is King... when he has no right being one. Keep your loyalty and trust within the Princess... She is the one who will get you to go farther."

Art was riding closely against Svein, her horse galloping as Ari wasn't far behind her. "...That armor suits you, you're highness" she began, her eyes on occasion turning to look up at Svein and followed on Ari. "Its a shame that you were born in the wrong caste, a lot of us soldiers never got the luxury in deciding where we found ourselves, most of us are acquired slaves who found their freedom" she on the other hand wasn't one of these people she was born of noble blood, and with the love of the fight she threw it aside, and became of warlord instead. "I can't say I miss that luxury" there was a sadness in her eyes, Art reminiscent to herself about the days of old, as she found herself leaving the house she grew up in with her father claiming she was chasing dreams. Perhaps she was but she knew that her dreams were the most part coming true.

"I'm really enjoying being able to head out on the adventure, if you call this one. Edwin always told me stories of all the other continents... so while I was growing up, I would often run off in to the Dead forest and pretend like I was a soldier with Edwin in my own little adventure... However... I cant say I got to this spot on my own decision... After all, I was on a ship to go to the ball... and the sea decided to throw me overboard.... But I guess most good adventures start by mistake." Ari stated, and she finally smiled. She felt a bit more at ease now that Edwin was with her.

"I'd hardly call this an adventure" Art proceeded in laughing. It was adorable the fact that the girl was expressing so much excitement about what was happening now. "Princess I can honor you for sure with the love of travel I don't aim on dying anytime soon, I'll definitely not leave you in the hands of these outcasts" she laughed even more, clearly implying Cinder and Svein, her voice teasing but playfully.

"if anyone is an outcast, it is you, my dear Art." Svein chimed in, a smirk tugging on his lips. "You are the misfit, not I.... However, I will agree on Cinder being one as well. I have done nothing wrong... I merely went out of my way and set up a tavern and inn... the only thing missing for me was a lovely mate... But someone never wanted to come with me." He stated and looked on ahead, the smirk still on his lips.
"This is certainly an adventure. Everything could be considered an adventure, considering where I came from. This part of it, however... I'm not sure it is one as well. But the whole idea of it all is thrilling.. and that is what an adventure is considered to be." Ariesti pointed out and glanced back at the Tiefling, then looked back a little more at the carriage. Immediately, her thoughts shifted back to Edwin. She frowned a little, "I'm grateful for him to join us... but I worry that father may find out about all this and kill him, along with all of us..."

"HA! Me settling down and be a working wife, Svein you have me mistaken for a typical woman...I am far from typical I've renounce my title to enjoy a sense of freedom, and I guess does make me a misfit" she continued to laugh her eyes looking over Ari and back to Svein "I wasn't going to be caged even though your words were tempting...one day I will settle, I don't know if its with you, or another and I will have more children then I can count...and I will enjoy it, but until then I need to see this through, after my adventure is finally over, perhaps I will retire if I make it out" her last words seem to carry, she looked at Ari who seem to prolong her gaze onto the carriage. When she finally returned her eyes onto the Tiefling, the Tiefling smiled, "...Princess does he know where you heart is?" there was one thing Art would never like to admit was her admiration of love, though she wouldn't admit her heart truly did belong to Svein. She felt the hurt when she left him behind, when he finally retired from his position from the Terror 9, she felt her heart rip when he was no longer by her side...perhaps it was this that had caused her to part ways. "...I wouldn't wait so long to tell him, it's only a matter of time before he gives up on the chase and goes on to another princess, I know how men like him can become...you won't truly know unless you act now" her eyes shifted ahead. She sighed at the thought that Svein may have wandered interests away from her, despite his lustful passion for her, she to desired the love everyone longed for. She wouldn't admit it but her heart and body belonged to Svein, she may even believe the feeling she felt deep inside was love.

Svein merely shook his head as he listened to the two women banter. "Art... it hurts me that you think I think of you as merely a working wife. Do you truly not know me? After how many years?" He questioned and licked his lips slowly. "You never will be caged with me, and never have been with me. Just keep that in mind, my Tiefling." He cooed. "We're nearly arrived to the party." Svein announced, bringing everyone back together for the task they had at hand.
