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

[meritocracy]

[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]

Rewarded? [Hmmm...] What sort of reward? And might it be paid in advance?

[voice]

[mykimlasca.livejournal.com]

Paid in advance? [ a scoff]
I suppose it depends on what you consider a reward, does it not?

[voice / filter 65%] placeholder~

[seleniahymn]

[... it's been months since Tear last heard that voice, calling out for help after the Malnosso had finished with whatever it had been they had done to her. Truthfully, she doesn't what to feel or how to react, other than the fact that she needed to find her before a certain someone else did.]

Natalia, wait!

[video / unfiltered because she's new ] 1/2

[mykimlasca.livejournal.com]

...Tear?

[voice]

[all7seas]

Rubies. I consider rubies a reward.

[video/ unfiltered ] 2/2

[mykimlasca.livejournal.com]

Tear is that you? Have you been taken as well?! [ she starts to feel herself panic just a bit. if that was truly her friend then this situation was more serious than she thought it could get. ]

[voice]

[mykimlasca.livejournal.com]

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

[voice]

[all7seas]

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

[voice]

[mykimlasca.livejournal.com]

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

[video/ filtering again! 65% ]

[seleniahymn]

Yes, it's me. But before we do anything I need you to calm down and tell me where you are. Can you do that? [She'd rather find her sooner instead of later, especially with the cold weather starting around here.]

[voice]

[squaring.livejournal.com]

[well... that sort of reaction's a little different from what he's used to. still, there's someone in need of help right now!!]

I... don't really think a reward will be necessary, Mi- [wait, no.] Princess!

[voice / filter 100%] because poking angry Kimlascans with sticks is fun and entertaining

[faterecanted]

My, my, Princess. Such an entrance.

[Hello, you furious little bargaining chip you. So wonderful to see you.]

[video/ unfiltered ]

[mykimlasca.livejournal.com]

O-Of course. [ takes a slight breath ]

I'm..well, I've been wandering in the woods since I awoke. I'm in some sort of clearing--honestly, i's not familiar at all.

[voice]

[mykimlasca.livejournal.com]

So you are willing to return me to Kimlasca without any sort of reward?

[voice / filter 100%] get out also 1/?

[ how is this possible? surely this is some sort of joke..of all the absurd voices to hear to be haunted by such a despicable ghost! ]

[voice / filter 100%]

[mykimlasca.livejournal.com]

[ that man. that twisted man...why is she hearing his voice?! ]

[voice / filter 100%] done.

[mykimlasca.livejournal.com]

Is this some sort of joke?

[voice]

[squaring.livejournal.com]

Well, not exactly... [okay man, take it slow. slowwwly explain to the princess that she's stuck in an alternate world etc etc. that'll work!]

I mean, while I can tell you everything I know, I'm sort of a captive here too so...

video and placeholder CRIES LOUDLY

[silpheeding.livejournal.com]

My my, how very demanding of you. [SITS HERE CALMLY SIPPING TEA not like she was any better when she first got there...] However, do you really believe your captors would feel any fear from such threats? After all, they have already managed to kidnap you.

[voice]

[mykimlasca.livejournal.com]

They would resort to taking children! Despicable! [ the Princess sounds apalled as she speaks a bit more gently now ]

I'd appreciate it. And we can both leave together.

[....] WOW I SAID 1/2 AND THEN DECIDED TO MAKE IT JUST 1/1 *is awesome*

[dissonates]

[Natalia. That's Natalia. Again.

Asch gazes down at the journal for a long moment, expression unreadable. His fingers curl around the paper edges, clenching tightly. He almost responds. Almost. But he doesn't know what she knows - about him, about Auldrant, about what's happened and whether or not he's already died - and surprising her with this would be unkind. Better to take it slow this time.

Thus, decision made, he stands up, the journal catching - at best - a flash of red hair before he closes it. He's out the door in moments, out to search for the errant princess. If he can't find her anywhere in the woods, he'll give her some time to get caught up and contact her later. He knows he isn't the best person to explain this place.]

video; holds

[mykimlasca.livejournal.com]

I beg your pardon? [ she sounds offended as she narrows her eyes. ]

It's hardly a threat. It's a guarantee.

[voice]

[squaring.livejournal.com]

Ah... and I appreciate the offer! [d-did she really need to call him a child? still, she seems to have calmed down a little at least.]

But, to be honest, leaving this place isn't really as easy as it sounds.
