Elise felt herself hesitate as Lady Cheldarine caught on, she never expected the woman to take note and realise that her cousin had been a little rough handed with her. Not that it should matter, but Elise didn’t what to voice the fact he had been rough with her as she didn’t want to appear like some weak little girl. [color=00aeef][b]“Wooing me? Please I doubt he would even know how to woo someone nowadays.”[/b][/color] Sighing softly to herself as she could never imagine this King even start to woo a lady and court them, not that she even wanted it to happen herself. 

It was strange hosting this woman, she showed no outward signs of wanting to cause her harm which was refreshing but she still found it hard to trust even though Lady Cheldarine was quite easy to talk too. Elise knew she was merely overthinking everything, but it was hard when even her family didn’t seem to care too much about her as their letters spoke of the promise to her brother and this wedding. Not one hint of if she was okay. 

Watching as the other woman reached the window, she found herself furrowing her brow as the question was posed to her, something that had crossed her mind her mind briefly, but it passed by without a second thought. [color=00aeef][b]“Well… I had considered it, but I guess I just assumed he was pressured for it by the council.”[/b][/color]

[color=00aeef][b]“I’ll be brutally honest, my own family and myself included expected this to be a trap and well too good to be true. My father originally threw the offer out to appease the court back home, not for it to be accepted.”[/b][/color] Leaning forward on her seat as she watched Lady Cheldarine curious to why Ozragad had pursued peace, [color=00aeef][b]“Tell me then, why is he pursuing the option of peace? As you say peace doesn’t really suit him, not when stories of this fearsome warlord proceeds him.”[/b][/color]
