The grim and solemn expression of the kingly-looking individual did not falter at the sight of Garlock. Garlock, on the other hand, would now be able to plainly see that these soldiers were not human. While the majority of the soldiers wore enclosed helmets, the king only had his crown. Black horns jutted out from just above his temples and then curved backwards with the the tip bending upwards. Behind him a black, leathery tail with a spade-like head swung back and forth in a memorizing pattern. All of his other features were reminiscent of humans.

It was clear that the king did not buy the 'cute' cat act. In fact, he seemed to be highly suspicious of the whole situation. He held up his hand in such a motion that caused the entire of battalion of soldiers to stop on a dime. A behemoth of a woman broke from the front of the formation, towering even over the king, and stepped to his side. Her right fist was held against her chest in reverence as she began to speak [color=fdc68a][b]"King Lucius, forgive my ignorance but why have you stopped? This is but a mere cat. I can remove it if you wish."[/b][/color] As she spoke, her hand moved to the sword on her hip and slid the blade out slightly. King Lucius gave her a scolding look that showed minor disappointment [color=salmon][b]"For the captain of the Burning Valkyries, you are none too observant."[/b][/color] He said sharply. The captain lowered her head in shame as she slid the sword back into its sheathe with a soft [i]click[/i] [color=fdc68a][b]"My apologies, your grace."[/b][/color] The pride in her voice shrinking by a degree.

The king now turned his attention back to Garlock fully [color=salmon][b]"I find it highly suspicious that a mere house-cat would approach a large band of soldiers that have recently tasted blood. Even more so is the fact that the nearby forest is plagued with man-eating plants that would easily devour a small beast such as this."[/b][/color] His eyes, which were the boldest color of red, squinted firmly [color=salmon][b]"I have lived far too long to fall prey to such tricks. Tell me [i]cat[/i], what matter of spirit are you? Or perhaps you are someone's familiar meant to spy on us? I do not wish to play games at this moment."[/b][/color] He was well-spoken and his voice carried with it an undeniable authority. Not that would have any affect on the destructive Garlock.
