At this point, Emiri was shocked. He knew her real name, even her parents, but how? No, that wasn't important, the next words he uttered were. She recognized that tone, and his intention. Withdrawing her sword, she stepped in front of Savayna, blade at the ready. He had mentioned it before--they were not going to get away easily, and she highly doubted at this point he was going to let them go anyway. Was he alone? Or were his forces nearby? They needed to get out of here, that much was for certain. But she couldn't think straight, she just didn't know what to do. If he was anything like Ixion, he was strong, but for some reason, she knew he was much stronger then him. They didn't stand a chance, especially with Savayna in her state. Holding her hand out, a clock appeared beneath Hamut. "[b]Stop![/b]" She casted her spell, and without even seeing if it worked or not, she grabbed Savayna's arm, running back down the path and pulling the blonde along. ------- As Nadeline rose, she took in a deep breath, though she motioned to Wesley. "[b]We have come bearing the Sword of Kings, Great One. We wish to destroy the Dusk Shard, to rid the world of this power that belongs only with the gods. We managed to destroy the Dawn Shard...but nearly lost someone near and dear to us as a result.[/b]" She spoke, explaining the situation. "[b]Were it not for a miracle, he would not be with us now. We come to you, pleading for any wisdom to use the Sword of Kings, to destroy the Dusk Shard before it falls into the wrong hands.[/b]" ------- Grant shrugged again, eyeing Levi curiously. He wasn't too sure where this was going. Of course he remembered Michel, their ride together was not one he would forget so easily. "[b]Ah, yes, he was...an interesting fellow.[/b]" He couldn't help but chuckle slightly, though this was purely because of the awkwardness the two share and nothing more. He then cleared his throat. "[b]But pray tell what an enemy prince has to do with any of this, m'lady?[/b]"
