♛First Decree: Video {not in kimlasca anymore..}

[Hello Luceti! You might hear some frustrated murmurs of a girl who may or may not sound familiar before the screen opens up. Behind her are trees. You might notice that first—OR! The first thing you might notice is the bright gold/white wings on her back, or maybe it’s the twig she failed to find out of her curly golden hair, or maybe it’s the fact that her cat-green eyes look absolutely furious. She pauses, before she begins to speak, posture ramrod straight, lips pursed.]

I find myself in need of assistance, if you please. While I am not familiar with this sort of fontech, I know enough. To those that have successfully taken me away from my kingdom, listen very carefully.

[her lip curls slightly, a bit of that anger in her eyes slowly spreading to her otherwise regal tone of voice ]

I demand to know where I am, immediately. To those of you who are not involved in this ..this indecency [her cheeks color. This is wrong on so many levels. ] I request all the information you can offer me. [she raises her hand to try and reach back and touch what she knows is clearly a hurt back, but her shoulder lances with pain. What did her captors do to her? Dropping it at her side, she looks back at the screen, raising her chin. ]

You will be rewarded, I can promise you that. As for those of you who had the audacity to pull off this joke, take heed: [her voice rises]

How dare you carry out such a despicable act!. Anyone who considers taking away Kimlasca-Lanvaldear’s Princess in broad daylight without her consent is considered from this point an enemy of both herself and His Majesty, King Ingobert the Sixth. You have taken me from my Castle and my people, and I cannot forgive such injustice.

Once I return to my Father’s side, and I will return, you will be found, you will be judged, and you will be punished according to your actions.

[with one more scathing glare, the Princess shuts off the feed]

That can be arranged. However assistance first. You don't actually assume I'll pay in advance, do you?

No. 'Swhy I asked, actually. To find out. So you were wanting assistance in being returned to your father's kingdom, then?

Yes. To the capital city of Baticul. Are you not a Kimlascan citizen?

I, darling, like to consider myself a man of the world; a man for whom nationalistic loyalties are meaningless.

Unless they become useful, of course. What ordeals does one have to endure to become Kimlascan?

..Darling?

None, simply be born or a resident of my kingdom, there is no 'ordeals' to being Kimlascan.

Ah. Seeing as I wasn't born there, nor can I possibly RESIDE there at the present time, I shall have to remain a foreigner.

Now: what are our terms to be?

Simple. Escort me back to my Castle and I'll grant you an audience with Father to gain your reward.

Done! Where are you?

In..this very odd clearing. I'm sitting on a large rock. I confess I have little idea as to where I am..

The presence of a rock does not actually make a clearing "odd." Is there anything else distinguishing about this place where you're at?

I meant as in I'm not at all familiar with this section! I know all the landmarks of my country but not this area!

Well, there's what looks to be some houses in the distance..

What side of the trees is the moss growing on? Are there any toads or salamanders present?

Salamanders? Ah...I'll check the trees. [ that's the sound shuffling in the grass and miss princess ~~walks it out~~walks to a tree. and she nods ]

The left side.

Interesting. Hmmm. And the toads? Salamanders?

...I have no idea what a salamander is. Is that a type of monster?

Aye, lass. Picture, if you will, a monster and a frog having thousands and thousands of babies. Now tell me if you see any, because this is frightfully important.

I..see.
[she looks around, thankfully seeing nothing. ]
And why may I ask is it important? I see nothing you described.

Then I am very much afraid that I cannot help you and that all is, unfortunately, lost.

And how does a salamander determine my return?!

Had you any last thoughts to be recorded? Last will and testament? A stirring and or heartwrenching "whups and here I go tumbling into my grave" final speech?

I'll do no such thing! I will not die! You're being ridiculous!

[A heavy sigh.] I MIGHT be able to do something...for some gold, in addition to those rubies?

I have nothing to give you. How can you be so callous? There is someone in need and you will do nothing to aid her unless she has money?

Oh, bugger.

[Why is it that whenever he sets out to try to make a tidy profit in this place, that part of him that is not callous at all sabotages it?]

Right. Be there in five.

[He slams his journal shut and will arrive fairly soon after.]

Honestly!
[ she shakes her head, before she'll be waiting. oh you know. ]
