The princess was not doing well. The flight across the border seemed to have worsened her condition and there was not a damn thing Asher could do while airborne to stop her from losing more blood. The closest town to the border was Minora, but before it was in sight he who he caught a glimpse of what could have only been a witch. The angel in his arms did not seem to have much longer, as her breathing was almost nonexistent and her body impossibly cold, even considering where they were.

Asher approached her small fire without a word. Apprehension was pulsing through him, but he did not let it show. The prince did not care for the half naked man by the witch’s fire or her explanation about local phantoms, but let her go on as he kneeled down slowly by the fire’s warmth and set the angel down softly. ”You talk too much, he said plainly, finally leveling his frosty eyes at the witch. ”And chances are she won’t make it that far. You’ll have to stabilize her here, and then we can talk about getting back into town.”

@Lord Zee I feel like the inevitable confrontation between Asher and Lucius is going to have a lot of one-sided animosity.

@ArenaSnow Now that would be quite the twist.

@RiverMaiden It's really foggy in the forest, so I can see it going either way really.

If you run across Naya on your retreat she'll patch Octavia up enough that she doesn't bleed out all over you. And then maybe you can help me lug this werewolf back to the shop and we'll call it a win win! ;)

Of course, you are her prince. It's not like she's gonna tell him no. XD

@Meiyuki You know, the children of darkness would never blame you for following the orders of royalty....
*Inserts even more shameless dark side propaganda. Is not even sorry.*

@Narcotic Dollie

You catch on quick ^^

So what you're saying is...

And yes, after 27 years Asher has no idea what the hell guilt is.

”Please stay safe,” the faerie pleaded. Not wanting to risk a dragged out fight that was sure to bring more unwanted attention, Asher took cover behind a tree and waited for the brunette to clear out. A strange feeling washed through him as he made his way to the angel’s hiding spot. It wasn’t quite regret, but there was something about undoing all of that faerie’s hard work that left a bad taste in his mouth. It was not going to stop him from claiming the angel, but it was certainly something he would have to look into at a later time.

As he pushed the last of the leaves away, Asher saw for himself what his gruesome handiwork had wrought as the redheaded angel came into view. A torn left wing, broken right wing, swollen eye, and cuts and gashes covered her from head to toe. It was nothing short of a miracle that the angel had survived, much less made it this far. The damned feeling came back in force, but this time instead of being curious about it, the prince became inexplicably livid. Asher found it ridiculous to feel bad about finally having the means to stop this 1,000 year war and yet feel bad about how he got there.

The feeling was pushed down deep. His people were bleeding for him right now; there was no room to let his emotions slow him down. Asher bound her hands together. Not that he was terribly worried about her getting away considering her state, but it would make carrying her that much easier if her arms weren’t flailing every which way. Satisfied, he then lifted her into his arms, doing his best not to damage her wings any further.

The fog had become incredibly thick in the forest and with the dead silence that hung heavily around, the place was starting to remind Asher of his homeland. Something about that bothered him, but he didn’t let himself think about it as he unfurled his wings and started to fly. The angel in his arms was frighteningly light and on the brink of death. If the prince was going to use her to end the war, he was going to need to employ the services of a witch. Quickly.
