"As long as we come to an agreement, I care not where this discussion happens." Aden spoke with them, arriving at her room, where he was told the men wait outside. Aden nodded to his men and motioned for Mira to follow into the room. "So Princess Rose, I do hope you considered my terms to the negotiations. I see you got dressed for the occasion." Aden said looking down at her, while Mira did a little curtsy and stared at her with a smile. "Greeting princess, I came to help see that things go smoothly and not make a turn for the worst. While Legel may have been more bloodthirsty as of late, this is all the king's orders. We don't want to spill pointless blood, hence why we are trying to make it seem like you came to an agreement with no choice. That way the King thinks he had a victory with you agreeing to Legel terms. So with the Pegasus we will leave you alone and with that the King will be preoccupied with other matter and will halt attacks. You must understand, its kind of hard to disobey a king. Mostly one called Chaos fiend Sol." Mira said smiling while Aden crossed his arms and stared at her intently. Hoping she wouldn't be so stubborn as she was yesterday.

Rose chews on the inside of her lip gently as she listens to what the lady had to say. An agreement with no choice? Rose blinks, and then lets out a long breath through her nose. "Pegasus are some of our most important creatures. We can't just let some go fly off the Legel, as there are not many of them." Rose's hand raises to scratch one of her ears as she thinks about the situation. Sakuya could either lend Legel the Pegasus, or they could not, and probably send a counterattack to reclaim the garrison they had lost. Worst case scenario, Sakuya would have to send a messenger to the northern lands of their kingdom, and call in for help from the troops that reside there. Rose did not want to do that, so she looks Aden in the eyes and asks, "How much gold would you be willing to give per single Pegasus?"

"Fair enough trade I suppose. I guess I could spare six hundred gold per Pegasus I think that's fair enough. They are just like horses but with the benefit of flight." Aden said staring at her while Mira nodded in agreement. "You have much to learn Aden. You don't even know how many Pegasus they even have to begin with. So that what I would like to ask, just how many does your kingdom own?"

"Five thousand," Rose replies. "However, you would only be entitled to," She pauses and thinks. "Six hundred Pegasus," She smiles. Rose knew that had more than five thousand, however the Pegasus were to be reserved for royals and high ranking officials. "Costing one thousand and six hundred gold. Each." Rose was not going to sell perfect Pegasus to a currently opposing kingdom for a small price. She crosses her arms, a sweet smile on her face.

Aden couldn't help but start laughing loudly at her pricing for them. "For that much you might as well give me 3 thousand Pegasus, cause no way in hell am I paying your tiny ass that much for only six hundred of them. You know, for a future queen you are not being the brightest. Maybe Cedia can throw that kind of money around for such few things but not me. So how about you reprice that, or if you stick to it. Then we will just leave and see you again. With the heads of the civilians and children of your people." Aden said now frowning at her. Was she trying to act tough in this situation? If so she was being a real dumbass about it.

"Eight hundred for each," was Rose' new price. Rose definitely did not want the heads of her people cast at her, or she herself may get thrown off of the future throne. "One thousand Pegasus." She grits her teeth. She taps her hands on her desk and then stretches, her dress tightening around her as she leans back, and then sets her hands back on her lap.

Mira looked at Aden and nodded that this was probably the best they would do, that and the price was lowered to a fairer one. So Aden nodded back an held out his hand and shook Rose's. You have a deal, we will leave you country alone and promise to not attack you unless you start the fight this time. I will send the gold tomorrow, also nice body Princess." Aden spoke smiling before leaving the room with Mira and had his men follow behind him. Where they would then march on back to the garrison in order to inform everyone.

Rose sighs to herself. "What have I done?" She asks herself, before heading to her personal quarters to rest. She changed out of her clothes and then laid down to take a nap. Someone took the papers from her office and began to spread the word to the Pegasus breeders that they were to ready their Pegasus for being bought. None of them refused. As long as they were getting their money, they were happy with it.

"You know six hundred would have worked just as well." Mira stated with Aden smiling. "I know but this way we can breed the Pegasus faster and produce more of them quickly. Then we can assault Aluxaria and claim that whores head. Still that princess was more stubborn than she needed to be. For someone with that body she has the damn mind of a twelve year old." Aden said as he went to prepare for the gold to delivered to Sakuya.

The next morning, surrounded by guards, Rose stands at the gates of Yasanctuar, a giant line of carts packed with Pegasus ready to be transferred to Legel. "Where is he?" She whispered, picturing Aden's face in her mind, her heart racing. More guards lined the carts of Pegasus, just in case Legel decided to take them without paying, which Rose doubted they would.

In the distance was Aden approaching on horseback with hundred of carts of his own. It took a while to get there so no gold fell off but they arrived, in which Aden looked at the Pegasus and nodded at Rose. "Well feel free to count all the gold if you want, or you can trust me that its all there." He said looking at a Pegasus that was black, but with a white mane and wings. "You will be my steed." Aden spoke to it holding out his hand gently with a smile. The creature smelling it before resting its head on his hand. "What a noble one you are."

Rose huffs silently, crossing her arms. "They are yours now." She waved behind her, and some more people walked out of the city to mount the carts of gold. Rose walks closer to Aden. "Are you happy now?" She asks, smirking. "Because I'd be happy to just get this over with." Rose was partially lying. She had a funny feeling in her chest whenever she looked at Aden, however she chose not to admit to this. Instead, she just blinked as she stares at him.

"Quite, it took longer than needed but in the end you came to the right decision." Aden spoke as he mounted his new Pegasus and stoked his neck. "Don't go crazy now wolfy. You should celebrate new found friendship." Aden said looking down at her before he nodded to his men who began to take the Pegasus back to Tsukir, the capital of Legel. When Aden then covered his nose from a foul stench. What layed before them was a woman maybe in her late twenties came moving along on top of a bone throne carried by skeleton soldiers. They didn't appear hostile as it was just them plus the six skeletons but necromancers could make a loss a win in a second. The woman stopped outside the gate with the skeletons vanishing into the ground. "Hello little Rosey. It's been ages since I last saw you. I'm just here to chat with your mother." The woman said rubbing the girls head while Aden stared in shock. "Huh, weren't fucking joking."

Upon the arrival of Chaoria's queen, Rose's jaw drops open. She recognized the queen from years back, and was still terrified of the woman to this day. "Y-Yes," Rose replies, breaking into a nervous, fearful shudder, her ears folding down. "S-She is in the throne room. A-Allow the guards to escort you there." Hearing this, several guards made sure to spin on their heels and make their way back into the castle, whereas the other guards, most of whom had not experienced anything to do with a necromancer and had no reason to fear the woman, began to line up in formation to escort the woman inside. Rose took a few fearful steps toward some of her guards.

"You too little A." The queen said pointing at Aden, who shuddered and looked at the sky, which made skeletons hold the Pegasuss legs. This amde Aden sigh as he got off and walked inside the castle walls. The queen stood between Aden and rose and hummed as she looked at the kingdom. "This cplace could use more decayed trees. Been a while since I had tea with your mother. I remember when you two were young. Rose was innocent and didn't have the woman's body she does today. And Aden was shorter and more shy. Hiding behind his mother's dress. Its a shame that she passed away from illness." She spoke which made Aden stay silent as they walked. "So why am I here anyway? Your business is with Sakuya not Legel." Aden asked which made her laugh. "Nope its with both. Your father is on his way. I already asked your mother and she gave permission, only as long as if I helped defend if they tried anything."

Rose nervously moved closer to Aden. Technically, their kingdoms were in an alliance, and he appeared to be the stronger of the two kingdoms (even though Rose doubted that all of the forces of Sakuya combined could lose a battle. "What could you possibly want with both of our kingdoms?" Rose asks as she edges her way slowly behind Aden, quivering fearfully. Even if Sakuya was neutral with Chaoria and her mother was friends with the Queen, Rose still felt the need to hide behind Aden, her face red.

Aden noticed Rose hide behind him which made him look at the Chaoria queen and shudder. Did this little puppy actually think he would be of any help? The queen looked back at Rose and smiled. "Well it has to do with Sakuya's beautiful lands and Aden himself." She spoke which made Aden tilt his head. "But I have no interest in their lands, I got what I needed and have no more use for it." He stated which made the queen shake her head. "Children be patient and find out soon." She mentioned as they continued to the throne room in which they saw the queen on her throne. The Chaoria queen bowed while Aden just stared at her. The Chaoria queen stood up straight and remained silent until the Legel king stormed into the room. "So the undead queen herself does exist. So is what you wrote in the message true?" Sol asked to which the Chaoria queen nodded. "Yes, but first Aden you are aware of Legel's customs correct?" He looked at her cautiously before nodding. She clapped her hands and smiled. "Good! Did you bring him Sol?"

He nodded in which a man in silver armor came walking through the door with sword in hand. That was when a woman came straight out of the ground and seemingly left no hole upon exiting the earth's crust. "Aden, your father agreed to a proposal of mine. But first I have to ask your mother this Rose." She said walking towards her bowing. "If my daughter slays one of Legel's best warriors. Will you allow my daughter and Aden's marriage to be hosted on a dragon? She states she really wants that to happen at her wedding." She said with the most normal smile, to which Aden if he had been drinking would have spit that shit everywhere. Aden then looked at the young undead girl who looked at him and waved.

Jennifer, who was sitting on her throne, smiles at Chaoria's queen, Mira. "Of course," she says, without any hesitation. She was good friends with Mira, and she didn't want to spoil this. After all, what harm could it do to Sakuya? "We are friends, after all. No war between us. I only have one condition, that I and Rose are both allowed to be at this wedding. I'll send the dragon as soon as the details are written about the wedding." Rose did not disagree with her mother. At least she would be safe in a Chaoria wedding, unlike that of Legel where she would fear assassination.

Suddenly, there was a cheer from the guards outside of the throne room, before a figure, dressed in the clothes and armour she always wore, walked into the throne room. The guards took glances before they realized they were supposed to be serious, and returned to looking dutiful. Her armoured boots clunked quietly as she circles the room. "Aria!" Rose says, practically leaping onto her sister as she walks past. "It has been so long!" Aria raises her eyebrows, and grins, wrapping her arms around her sister, not even flinching as she was smacked into by the suddenly happy Rose. "Hello," She says, smiling, as she looks around the room.

Mira smiled and looked at her daughter. "Isn't that great news Sinoa? And of course you are allowed to attend. Its your dragon after all." To which the daughter smiled and nodded as she bowed before Jennifer. She then walked over to Aden and looked up at the man looking down at her. When suddenly Rose's sister returned, to which she leaps tackle hugs her, causing Aden to sigh thinking how terrifying it was that there were now two of them. Mira looked at Aria and waved. "You certainly grew up as well Aria." Mira spoke before Sol stomped his foot. "Hey now! Who says my warrior will even lose? Mostly to a scrawny girl like that? Well come on then lets get it over with! But do note, since its Legel custom, you cannot cry when your daughter dies." Sol spoke to which the queen chuckled. "Of course." And with that Mira motioned for everyone to follow, to which they came to the outside the kingdom in the open field. "Well by all means start." Mira said conjuring up undead skeleton chairs for the spectators.

While the Legel warrior held up his long sword and grinned. "Time to turn an undead controller into an undead herself." He said cockily while the daughter reached into the ground easily, and pulled out a giant scythe to which the man now looked at nervously. "What?" And before he knew it he was suddenly surrounded by fifty skeletons to which the man looked around in shock. "Thats not-!" he said being cut off by Sinoa. "Fair? the customs are to the death, not a fair death." And with her saying that the skeletons rushed at him, which made him yell as he charged forward swinging his sword, which shattered through skeleton after skeleton but they latched onto him slowing him down as they bite into his flesh, until they finally halted his progress. "Become my undead servant." Sinoa said before swinging the scythe downwards cleaving his body vertically in half.

Aria rubs her sister's head. Even though she was younger by a bit, Aria was clearly the more buff of the two princesses. Aria sits down in a skeleton chair casually, while Rose moves away and then comes back with a normal chair, placing it next to her sister and sitting down. She was not fond of sitting in a skeleton chair. God knows who's bones they were.
Aria whoops as the Legel warrior is swiftly taken down, and Rose covers her eyes. "Oh god," she says, as Aria laughs and claps. She was used to fights in the north, and had taken part in quite a few herself. Some people looked down on her and said that she should be acting more womanly, including her own mother, but eventually she moved North and made her own path with the tough up there.
Jennifer sighs. She had expected Sinoa to win. "Congratulations, Sinoa!" Jennifer hears Aria call out as Rose looks like she is trying to prevent herself from throwing up.
