[@ArenaSnow][@Cuccoruler][@Lord Zee][@Deyedreamer] Octavia heard the voices of 2 men nearby, one terrifyingly familiar; the voice of the soldier that she had encountered earlier, and the other was new. She heard the unfamiliar voice turn to a yell and she couldn't help but giggle slightly at how ridiculous he sounded. However, she understood the message he was implying. He wanted her to run while she had the chance. Only except for one thing; Octavia had no intention of running. This man, as well as the taunting faerie and elf (though she didn't know it yet), had risked their lives to help her. Octavia was determined to return the favor. Octavia, ever so slightly, peeked out from her hiding place and looked around to see who was present. A human, a moth faerie, 2 vampires, a demon, and an elf not too far away from their location. Octavia took a deep breath and stepped out of her hiding place, spread out her wings and jumped down from the tree, flapping her wings a few times, landing softly behind the man, who told her to run. She stepped directly in front of him, only a few feet away, and removed her hood to finally reveal her face. She had a stern, fearless look in her eyes, frost crawled up her cheeks and across one of her eyes, yet the cold did not seem to faze her. A heavy trail of steam escaped her lips between exasperated breathes. Though it did not show on the outside, on the inside her weak heart was racing and her mind was a nervous wreck; she was terrified. Octavia spread out her arms and wings, acting as a shield, protecting the human male. [color=ed1c24]"Please don't harm him. I was the first to cross the border. I'm the one you seek, correct? The only reason why the other light children crossed the border was so they could make me return home. I apologise on their behalf and ask for you to please pardon them."[/color] She said, her voice cool and calm. She then made a gesture to the soldier to wait for a moment with one hand and she rumaged through her satchel with the other. After a few moments, she pulled out a dagger and held it out towards the soldier in a non threatening manner. [color=ed1c24]"When you found me at the border, you asked who I was. I have that answer for you. My name is Octavia, daughter of the king of light and the sole heir to the kingdom of light. I have no hostile intentions to the kingdom of darkness or her people. Nor am I a spy, my dagger should be proof of that. I sincerely apologize for the misunderstanding. I crossed the border out of mere curiosity and intrigue of this kingdoms diversity in culture in comparison from my own. So I shall ask you once more. Please pardon the children of light who trespassed through here. Or perhaps... You'd like to worsen the effects of war?"[/color] Octavia's words were not bot meant to be taken as a threat, rather, as a warning. She did not want to worsen the relations between the two worlds and she hoped that the soldier would see that.
