Ellie wasn't too surprised by the girl's reaction. It must be a lot to take in. Being sold as a slave, only to be picked up by a giantess. [color=f9ad81][b]"This must be quite a shock for you, but don't worry. You'll be safe with me and I'll explain everything when we get to the barracks.[/b][/color] She said in response to the girl's confusion. Her long strides had taken them quite some distance away from the auction crowd, which is why she was surprised when a woman's voice called from behind her. It seems that someone caught up with her. [color=a187be][b]” Hey, the sister of bulwark! Wait a second!”[/b][/color] the voice called. Ellie stopped mid-stride, turning to face the woman who had called out, the girl still in her arms. She was quite tall for someone who wasn't a giant. However, Ellie was considered one of the shorter Giants within her clan. She recognized her. It was the woman from the auction who had placed a bid on this girl. Perhaps she wanted to buy the girl off of her? Not a chance. [b][color=f9ad81]"I'm sorry, but I will not be allow this woman to be bought by anyone."[/color][/b] She stated in a stern tone, hoping this woman would back down.
