Cecelia took in her surroundings. They were atop a hill that overlooked the castle, though they could see only two sides, it wasn't but a few yards from them. The other side of the hill that faced away from the castle could view two horses galloping towards the castle, but headed for the second side they could see, meaning it had to be the assassins. In front of the castle was a huge mob of people, both defending and defying the castle. Cecelia estimated the distance the riders had to go and figured wind strength and direction.

All the while talking to her new... coworkers in a quiet, yet steady voice. [color=6ecff6]"So who are you? Not many swordswomen in Tellius, and even fewer dragon riders. Two major wars wiped most of 'em out. We have five minutes before they are in my bow's range, and at that, it'd take us a good... three or so minutes for you to get into slicing range, and would take your wyvern at least two to get to the assassins, with them running in terror from the huge lizard; no offense, Mr. Dragon. May as well strike up a conversation with you lot. Names?"[/color] Being straightforward, she asks her fellow Guardians of Balance their names.
