The two twins looked up at Rachel as she placed her hands on their shoulders and praised them. Both of them felt just a little bit embarrassed being praised like this, but Miko bit it together while Ronin smiled, both of them appreciative.

[color=DC9495]‘Thank you, ma’am,’[/color] Miko said.
[color=55B7AA]‘You can count on us!’[/color] Ronin called.

Beyond that, they watched as Kimble entered the scene, simply letting her and Alicia have their moment. When the time came, they’d be ready to move.

Mayra just heard the part where Alexander said the guards were a problem, and all of a sudden she kicked the unicorn into high gear and rode straight past them towards the city gates. The idea was that the rest of them were not to follow her, but to watch from a distance, albeit she did not convey this idea. Mayra rode straight up to the moat by the closed gate, and…

[color=fc6828]‘HEY!’[/color] Mayra called out, lobbing some fireballs at the guards. When she had their attention, she lifted up Brittany in front of her, up to display. [color=fc6828]‘I kidnapped your prisoner! If you don’t want the Queen to be very, very mad at you, you should summon the greatest force your little castle can build, and come chase me down! Don’t hold back; I can take anything you throw at me!’[/color] 

[color=fc6828]‘Besides, your Queen is a ████-██████ ████-███████ █████ ███ █████ ███ █████ ██ ███████!’[/color] Mayra shouted insults that could be neither written nor heard without in any setting expected to be presented to an audience. [color=fc6828]‘And if you’re gonna let me get away with saying that, YOU’RE ALL ████████!’[/color] 

With that, Mayra laughed and turned the unicorn to ride east, like, away from the secret entrance, and also where I mentally picture the nature/dwarf forces to be preparing that ambush. She was also ready to use some fire/darkness magic to fry/avoid any projectiles the gates might be launching at her at this point.

[color=fc6828]‘You’re gonna help me fight when it comes down to it, right, Brit?’[/color] Mayra asked Brittany, turning the tiny shopkeeper back to herself like talking to a doll. [color=fc6828]‘I saw what you were doing before Mariette stopped you! You’re a proper fire-cracker!’[/color] she said, chuckling. This was taking place right in front of the gates, they needed to give the guards some time to get their forces/lower the drawbridge, anyway,  [color=fc6828]‘Yeah, we’re gonna get along just fine,’[/color] Mayra smirked, ready to be an awful influence.

When the time was right (and assuming they were behaving as Mayra wanted), Mayra would grin back and shout. [color=fc6828]‘YOU’LL NEVER CATCH ME!’[/color] and then kick the unicorn into dashing as fast as possible away, east, while throwing a couple extra fireballs up at the guards on the battlements to maybe take them out before riding off.

The Queen started giving Mariette a lesson in how to conquer a town. As absurd as that felt, Mariette was fine with that. She was permitted to see exactly what the Queen was doing, through the Queen’s own portals. So, she was deeply focused on the invasion of the town. In a way, that was good. It meant her eyes were not on other things, closer to home. That said, she wasn’t exactly happy to see an invasion-force heading to Penrose. She knew Nykannis had some form of defenses in play, but she had no concept of how strong she should expect that defense to be, or if it was strong enough to repel the Queen’s army…

Besides, Mariette realized. She was once again in a position to try to suggest a different method. She just needed to consider how to do so. … As soon as she got past the obstacle of needing to eat, apparently. She really, really didn’t want to eat. So, what does she, as the Queen’s daughter, do when she doesn’t want to do what she’s told?

Th-throw a tantrum?

[color=077ae6]‘B-but mother!’[/color] Mariette tried. [color=077ae6]‘Th-this is the most important moment, I can’t just sit and eat while everything is happening! I-I want to watch!’[/color]

… Definitely felt completely out of her comfort-zone to attempt to say something like that.  [color=077ae6]‘B-besides…’[/color] Now, what was it Mariette wanted to say? [color=077ae6]‘Why was it… we needed to conquer Penrose? Was it just to cause chaos and become an antagonist? Because… if it was just to slay Asengav…’[/color] As unbelievable as that sounded…

[color=077ae6]‘Then we could just go to Penrose by portal, and then I could call him. At any time.’[/color]
