[@MrMonsoon][@Belle][@BlackPanther] Looking at Lyra, he listened to her words. [color=f26522]"I do not believe you to be a cousin of mine. I've researched your family history, Lyra Sky of the Mountains... We are no cousins..."[/color] As soon as he finished his reply to her, he noticed that she looks like she had seen a ghost and the name of his uncle Emerin can be heard. [color=f26522]"Uncle. Mother knows about this. If what I've heard is correct, the king is dead and the capital is a mess right now. We all need to go back to Mount Promonon and Lyra is staying with me. I don't care what mother has to say. I did not win the Princess's hand, I am free to pursue whoever I want...."[/color] There was more commotion, this time back inside the medical tent, which is now a complete mess. A horse, grey of skin, had stormed in. It looked frightened and confused. Normally, Trystan would approach cautiously and try to calm the beast down. Right now, he neither has the strength nor the patience for that. He turned his head rather forcefully, causing the scene in front of him to turn black for the briefest of moments. He saw Tiras, one of his bastard siblings. [color=f26522]"Tiras, dear brother, lead your beast away, and return to Hyland's Keep. This place isn't safe anymore...."[/color] He caught his breath and noticed Lyra leaning in towards him. Wrapping an arm around the small of her waist. "Be steady my lady, have no fears. Come, we must go..." With that, he moved past his uncle, cousin and various things inside the medical tent. Out on the grounds, there was mass hysteria. People were screaming, running about frantically and displaying generally chaotic behavior. Scanning around quickly, Trystan located a horse. It wasn't his, nor was it the biggest, but it will do for the two of them, for now. It seems there has already been some looting and killing among the chaos. "Lyra, we need to move." he said as he prepared to help Lyra on to the horse before he got on himself...
