Wesley felt each and every pinch. Even as Hamut and Jaakuna would talk, Nadeline felt the need to pinch him as hard as she possibly could. He was wincing each time she did. For a very thin princess, Nadeline sure had the pinches of a Behemoth King. Wesley would thank the gods that she stopped just as Jaakuna had accepted the proposal. Though, Wesley didn’t know if Jaakuna knew what he really signed up for. He pretty much gave his word that he would marry Emiri and the two of them would rule Archadia together. Wesley knew Emiri, but he didn’t know her as well as Nadeline would, so he leaned into Nadeline. [b]“Do you think Emiri would actually go for this?”[/b] He whispered into her ear, hoping the others wouldn’t hear them.

As Hamut would release a sound like ‘mmm’ as a sign of being pleased with Jaakuna’s acceptence of his proposal, the Judge would speak. [b]“Now, as for how you three would get into Archadia, it’s quite simple.” [/b]He stated. [b]“Myself and Isaiah will take you in as our prisoners.” [/b]Hamut simply said.

Wesley couldn’t believe it. Was this a trap or not? [b]“And what makes you think that we’ll go along so smoothly?” [/b]Wesley barked out.

Hamut eyed the boy. [b]“Oh, I was under the assumption that you wanted to save Jackson’s future wife? If not, then I’ll simply take my leave.”[/b] Hamut said as he was actually about to leave.

Jaakuna put his arm in the air. [b]“No Grandfather, we’re serious.”[/b] Jaakuna said, looking to Wesley, eyes just pleading with him. [b]“Aren’t we, Wesley?”[/b]

Wesley sighed. [b]“Yes, I apologize.”[/b] Wesley simply said.

[b]“Very well then, this is how it’s going to go down. Isaiah and myself will bring you three to Archadia under the false charge of aiding and abetting an enemy of the state. We both will place you in the dungeons, of course we will give you keys to break out and then what you three do after that is solely up to you. Understood?”[/b] He said, stating what they all would do.

Wesley nodded and said nothing. Jaakuna did the same.

When Emiri chose to speak, Vincent was a little angry at what she said. The fact that she brought up Savayna and what she did when she betrayed him was deeply bothering him. Though, when she would make a note at how that’s the Archadian’s operate, he smiled. He couldn’t deny that’s indeed how they did operate. [b]“You’re indeed right, Emilia. Though Savayna is a traitorous whore, she is an Archadian and we Archadians always respect that of which we say. If we say we’re going to do something, then we do it. As the whore said, she let you go after you did what she wanted, and as the Emperor, I promise to do the same.”[/b] He said.

It wouldn’t be before long that they came to the palace of sorts. They would step out of the aircab and proceed to walk into the building in front of them. As they would, Vincent would not lead her to his office. Oh no, he would go a different route. This one was more south and below the surface level. It would be revealed to the both of them that they were in the dungeons. Yes, it would seem that Vincent wanted to show Emiri someone that she might find interesting to see. 

As they would come to a stop at a cell, in front of them, was Grant in his cell. [b]“Grant, you have a visitor.” [/b]Vincent would say very cold and smugly.
