Alex couldn't help but smile warmly as her glowing green gaze looked upon her lover. She could feel the necromancer go a little limp in her arms, relaxing almost against the Doom Knight. Naisha was quite happy of her win, and Alex could really see the love in her eyes. In her voice and words. It felt nice and comforting. The red head always felt like she was missing something. Was lost. Maybe all along, she just wanted this. "Good, for I am forever yours. Always was. Always will." the tall woman whispered into her lover's ear, sort of enjoying the way Naisha reacted toward her. The red head could remember... such a state Naisha had when she crushed on a boy. Sort of at least. This felt a bit more like the mage was even more fixated and distracted.

Jumping a little at the witch's words, snapping out of her own thoughts before shuffling in embarrassment. Alex blinked a little at Naisha's angry glare and was about to follow it but the mage held her face away to prevent looking to the witch. The knight couldn't help but blink curiously but Naisha just pulled her toward their seats. At the hiss, Alex frowned a little as she thought about tonight. Where the witch would surely have plenty of entertainment. But she couldn't say that out loud in fear Naisha would figure it out. In which case, Alex would have to think up a valid excuse for leaving for the night. Maybe to explore more on Amazon culture. Since this place did interest her a little. 

When they sat down, Alex pulled Naisha toward her, pressing their exposed skin together as the taller woman embraced the necromancer. "It's fine, just ignore her. You should be celebrating of your victory instead of worrying over her." she said reassuringly.

Karette chuckled a little, smiling slyly as she watched the two little kittens. Her lavender gaze narrowing ever so slightly. Already, her mind was up to quite a few little plans to tease these two and make them squirm. It would be quite fun indeed for both her and her concubine. Watching as the other ceremonies took place, be it dancing, display of weaponry or armor, the Queen waited patiently. It was then one of the final ceremonies came to play and the Queen gave the witch a quick kiss before standing, Two Blade sword in hand. A young amazon stepped foreword, pounding her one of the blades to the ground before pointing it at the Queen. 

A challenge for the right of being Queen.

A death match.

Queen Karette was a beloved Queen of the Amazons, both respected and feared but of course there are still those willing to challenge her for the right of the throne. For the Queen had no heir in her bloodline. Some Amazons had a distaste for Karette's general peaceful attitude, for a Amazon at least. Despite how truly ruthless she could be when in battle. Some challengers were naysayers, some just young and hot blooded and wanting the glory of a fight with the Queen, others older and experienced believing they could surpass her.

The challenger looked upon the Queen with a determined expression, almost a little confident yet was still wary as the dominating presence of the Queen neared. Still, she managed the courage to stand tall, weapon in hand as she pointed it to Karette. "I, Alik'nas, challenge Karette for the throne!" she said loudly, her hair a brunette pulled into a high ponytail with emerald green eyes. Body strong and firm, yet slender and quicker then someone like Karette who was generally quite big. Most likely was going to try and use that to her advantage.

Queen Karette was required by Amazonian law to accept any challenger. So she simply nodded, her body standing tall and her lavender eyes narrowing at her opponent. "I accept your challenge, Alik'nas. If I should fall under your blade, swear as the next Queen to take care of our people, the Muyme Tribe. Protect them with your life and make them strong. That is my final wish." she said firmly, calm and unafraid.

Alik'nas nodded slightly and bowed. "I shall grant this. And if I should fall, swear to sing to of our mothers of our glorious fight. That is my final wish." she said and Queen Karette nodded before getting into a stance, spear in hand and ready for combat.

"So it shall be." Karette said, watching as Alik'nas then charged with her Two Blade sword, swinging it toward the large woman whom deflected with her spear before watching as Alik'nas quickstepped around the Queen with impressive speed. The challenger's weapon spun like a saw toward directly to the Queen's throat, aiming to slice the Queen's head clean off.

Karette however quickly jabbed the butt of her spear backward, hitting her opponent right between the ribs, knocking some air out of her before was shocked to find the Queen heel turn, left arm readied and punching as she turned with her body. Slamming her fist against her opponent's face and knocking her clean backward. Smashing against the room's walls. Alik'nas coughed but soon enough got back to her feet again and charged at the Queen. Feet bouncing about to avoid jabs from the spear so she could get in close and stab the Queen. Karette watched the display calmly, not even making a move to use her weapon and watched as the challenger ducked low to stab upward toward Karette's left side and to her rib cage. 

The Queen however grabbed the blade with her free hand, catching it easily before twisting it harshly. The second blade cutting right into the challenger's shoulder, causing her to grunt in pain and leap away. But as soon as she did, Karette used the distance to jab her spear foreword, the tip piercing right through the challenger's chest where her heart should be. Alik'nas gasped, blood slipping from the wound of the spear, coughing as her body slipped further along the spear as it limped. The red liquid trickling from her mouth before the light in her eyes died. Karette lowered the spear to lower the body to the ground before pulling her weapon out of the corpse.

After a brief moment of silence, a cheer erupted in the room as the amazons cheered for their victorious Queen, and for Alik'nas great display. Some amazons quickly came and took Alik'nas's body and clean up the hall. Alex could only watch at the encounter. Wondering how often this occurred that the Queen killed her own people, just like that and they celebrated? Amazons sure were odd. Queen Karette didn't look neither sad nor happy. Alex wasn't really sure what the Queen was thinking on this matter. Was she proud of her own victory or the bravery of the Amazon she just slain? Sad she had to do this or that there was another person unworthy to take her place? Who could say?

The Queen returned to her throne as dinner began and basically a whole buffet was displayed before them, and Alex could only stare at it with a slight frown. Soon, she'd be able to enjoy this. Though of course... after tonight's price.

Alex followed after the strange man, keeping in stride as she crossed her arms over her chest as she walked. As he spoke about the rooms, she gave a soft grunt in reply. "It's alright." she replied simply. Her mood wasn't high enough to bother with admiring the ship or the rooms. Perhaps if none of this happened, she'd probably would of acted more excited or awestruck. But right now she just wasn't in the mood for such things. Too many other things to think about, and she could feel her blood boiling. Though some of it she couldn't really understand it. Perhaps she was just in a agitated mood. 

When she was handed the potion, she uncrossed her arms and took it, her expression unchanging from its odd mixture of calm and frustration. "No that's all. Thanks." she responded before turning and returning to the rooms. Though she paused in front of Naisha's. Swishing the bottle of sleep potion and looking at the liquid, the tall woman slowly opened the door and peeked inside.

Seeing Naisha seeming to be sleeping, though had quite a few books lying about, the red head rolled her eyes. Slowly going inside and shutting the door. Tip toeing the best she could through the room. Setting the sleep potion down on the ground before picking up the books and setting them on the bookshelf.

Once done, Alex picked up the sleep potion again and looked around the room. It did feel a bit smaller, quite more suited for Naisha rather than Alex compared to her own room. But right now it felt more comfortable. Maybe because Naisha was here and she didn't want to be alone right now. Especially if her Mage friend was serious about leaving. So with a quiet sigh, she sat down cross legged in front of the door, leaning her back against it as she uncorked the potion. Nose twitching at the odd scent before downing the whole bottle. Setting the bottle down, she crossed her arms over her chest, slouching against the door as she felt the effect immiedietly take over her senses. It didn't usually last too long, but it did help ease her into sleep. 

Yawning softly, Alex soon fell asleep. For once, it was a little peaceful. Though she still felt uneasy. Agitated. Angry. Frustrated. Lonely. But still... Asleep. And she welcomed it.
