Ash cringed as the princess quickly ate, rather, devoured the meal. Whether she was a princess or a cave woman was something that Ash didn't bother to know. Instead, he silently listened to her rants, all the while observing how quickly she sped through the food. Suddenly, Aninesse looked up to him, apparently asking for permission to now go play with the children. Ash was about to reply as one of the servants burst in and handed Aninesse an official looking note.

The princess took the note with her slender hands as Ash decided it was best to start the cleaning process. The princess began to read the note as Ash swiftly cleaned the table without delay. In a matter of minutes, he was back again beside Aninesse, waiting for her orders. Suddenly, the princess pouted... something she always does when pissed off. Aninesse turned to him, letting out her annoyance.

Ash listened silently as he looked up to her.

"Milady. Utter not such words of disdain against your guardians. They might still be doing something else for the kingdom." Ash smiled while replying. Suddenly, his eyes turned grim as he remembered his past. "Indeed. It was them who ordered the assassination. I was--- I mean, they decided quite rashly." Ash continued as he looked at the princess. "However, milady, think not of yourself as a lamb, but rather, Gabriel's hope for peace. You are far too graceful and beautiful to be just a messenger, you are Gabriel's hope. Your guardians were foolish in making their decisions, and the only right decision they made was to take care of you. Straighten the mistakes that your parents did... Not only for Gabriel, but for yourself. In the event that you build a family, then at least, they will live in a world where there is no fear or hatred." Ash chuckled as he tightened the bandages on his face.

"Besides, a suitor might pursue your beauty around the kingdom. By attending this treaty, you have a reason not to meet them. Wouldn't you like that, milady?" Ash let out a small laughter, knowing the princess' disdain for the opposite gender. "Worry not, I will send the best of guards to accompany you."
