Alexandra walked through the halls of the castle, towards the main exit. Another set of guards had come to relieve her and the lieutenant from their vigil outside the throne room.
Just get home and take a nice long soak in some nice warm water. This day was enough to test anyone's nerves...
[EXPECT PAUSE HELL WITH ME] Dom-08/14/2016
"My, my, my..." A rather noble looking man strided in the opposite direction, holding his chin up with gloves on his hand. "This is quite the marvelous castle, but where are the washrooms?"
"Today's been a long day, and I'm tired of dealing with this filth!"
Appa | Very Lewd-08/14/2016
Alexandra addressed the man, stopping briefly and facing him. "The closest washroom is down this hall, turning left then watch the wall that'll be on you're right hand side."
[EXPECT PAUSE HELL WITH ME] Dom-08/14/2016
"Oh--Hello there!" He swiftly turned to Alexandra. "Hah! Of course, where else would it be?
"I won't ever make such a mistake--thank you, whoever you are." He gave a smirk as he closed his eyes. "And who might you be?"
Appa | Very Lewd-08/14/2016
"Alexandra De'Trivel. I'm an officer of the castle guard most days." Alexandra gave a half bow. "Who might you be? I don't recognize you, nor do you seem to be one of those mercenaries Queen Isabella hired on Prince Phineas's behalf."
[EXPECT PAUSE HELL WITH ME] Dom-08/14/2016
"Ex... excuse me?" He twitched. "What do you mean, you don't recognize me?" He said, holding an arm up. "You mean you don't recognize my flawlessness? "
Appa | Very Lewd-08/14/2016
"That is correct." Alexandra looked him in the eye. She met him with a stoic and impartial expression. "Should I recognize a man I've never met?"
August 15, 2016
[EXPECT PAUSE HELL WITH ME] Dom-08/15/2016
"H... hrmph! Well." He ran a hand through his head. "Then you will see how great I am--That you'll never regret meeting me!"
Appa | Very Lewd-08/15/2016
Odd, since I'm beginning to already... "Unlikely we'll even meet again, Sir. Before the week is out, I'll be on the road escorting Prince Phineas."
[EXPECT PAUSE HELL WITH ME] Dom-08/15/2016
"Well then, you're surely in luck!" He gave a shit-eating smirk, straightening his collar. "You can relax now -- I'm generous enough to work for two people at once...!
Appa | Very Lewd-08/15/2016
"I would hardly call being sent away from home for who knows how long luck." Alexandra remains expressionless. "Nor do I follow your meaning. You can handle two employers. Do you mean to imply that you've been assigned to the same detail?"
[EXPECT PAUSE HELL WITH ME] Dom-08/15/2016
e
"Indeed I have!" He said. "The one and only--"
" Alfron Julkeus Donum III the Great! "(edited)
Appa | Very Lewd-08/15/2016
"It is a unique name, I grant you that." Alexandra gives a single short, slow nod. "Though not one I've heard. You're not from Damonia, I take it."(edited)
[EXPECT PAUSE HELL WITH ME] Dom-08/15/2016
"Indeed I am not!"
Appa | Very Lewd-08/15/2016
"What brings you from your country all the way to a castle washroom, Sir?" Alexandra continues her questioning.
[EXPECT PAUSE HELL WITH ME] Dom-08/15/2016
"Well, I thought that someone as great as me should devote a part od their time to helping the world--Your welcome."
Appa | Very Lewd-08/15/2016
"I never thanked you. Where are you from, Milord?"
[EXPECT PAUSE HELL WITH ME] Dom-08/15/2016
He gave a frown, before continuing his speech. " I come from t he great land of Celanthus?"
Appa | Very Lewd-08/15/2016
"I was born here in Damonia, if you'd not guessed. My family's estate is a short walk from this castle."
[EXPECT PAUSE HELL WITH ME] Dom-08/15/2016
"Well, many people come from many places!" He said, his cape swivelling. "I wonder what it must be like living here."
Appa | Very Lewd-08/15/2016
"It's usually very serene. Unfortunately things have been in a state if ordered chaos since the late queen's passing. The new queen, Isabella, is still adjusting to the throne. And now this mess with Floribar falling..."
[EXPECT PAUSE HELL WITH ME] Dom-08/15/2016
"Ah, I can only imagine such stress she has--My condolences." He fixed his gloves, every subtle moving seeming to only to serve himself. "But everything will be okay--With me as an asset, you'll surely have both a military and political force!"
Appa | Very Lewd-08/15/2016
"The kingdom holds its breath." Alexandra responds with thinly veiled sarcasm
[EXPECT PAUSE HELL WITH ME] Dom-08/15/2016
"Hmph, I see your attitude as clear as pristine glass." He sneered, turning away. "And why are you in this group, if I may ask?"
Appa | Very Lewd-08/15/2016
"The Queen assigned her personal guard's captain to protect the fugitive Prince. I'm against the decision myself, but I'd be hard pressed to argue a direct order from her majesty."(edited)
[EXPECT PAUSE HELL WITH ME] Dom-08/15/2016
"Captain, I hear?"
Appa | Very Lewd-08/15/2016
"Captain, yes. Does this trouble you?"
[EXPECT PAUSE HELL WITH ME] Dom-08/15/2016
"Not at all! Infact, I'm pleased to meet you." He gave a slight bow, but the approval was only superficial. "Someone of such rank must have quite a massive background."
Appa | Very Lewd-08/15/2016
"Not greatly, no. I joined the Royal Guard. My father was on the queen's council. He died, and I was named a captain of the guard. That way I could replace him on the council but also retain my position in the guard."(edited)
[EXPECT PAUSE HELL WITH ME] Dom-08/15/2016
His face faltered for a little bit. "Oh."
"Ah." He nodded. Her father died. He was oddly quiet.
Appa | Very Lewd-08/15/2016
"Fret not. It was almost six years ago now, and he died to old age. Nothing gruesome."
[EXPECT PAUSE HELL WITH ME] Dom-08/15/2016
"If you insist." He scratched his head, not sure on how to respond. "Alas! I assume he was a noble, respectable man his entire life."
Appa | Very Lewd-08/15/2016
"He was a great man. He truly loved Damonia and it's people, and loved defending them as a knight."
[EXPECT PAUSE HELL WITH ME] Dom-08/15/2016
"A role model where I will follow his code of conduct indeed!"
Appa | Very Lewd-08/15/2016
"You're a knight?" Alexandra calmly held back a scoff, instead tilting her head a few degrees
[EXPECT PAUSE HELL WITH ME] Dom-08/15/2016
"I'm of nobility, yes, but higher than a knight!"
"I'm the son of a Baron!"
Appa | Very Lewd-08/15/2016
"And I lend consul directly to a queen." Alexandra countered. "That doesn't make me any less a knight."
[EXPECT PAUSE HELL WITH ME] Dom-08/15/2016
"Well, you see." He twitched. "Hmph, nevermind, such details are a cumbersome in conversation."
Appa | Very Lewd-08/15/2016
"As you wish. I must be going either way, if I expect my bath to be warm when I return at my estate." Alexandra offers another half bow before turning to leave
[EXPECT PAUSE HELL WITH ME] Dom-08/15/2016
"Alas, farewall, sir Alexandra!" His voice was booming, as he bowed. "May we meet eachother again! Haha!"
Down the hall, turn left then look right...
Appa | Very Lewd-08/15/2016
