"My father did mention the change. I just was not sure if that was mentioned in our agreement, but I don't see why it wouldn't have been. Roran and I will discuss the wedding, but now I must retire to my room. I plan to leave for Keros at dawn, and I still have many things to get finished before I leave. Thank you for your time your majesty." Amaya said tiredly as she stood and then walked out of the room, the ends of her cloak dancing at her heels as she left.
She entered her room, where Kaname helped her change into a simple black gown and then she sat on her bed, just thinking about how she was going to tell her people what had happened, and how she was going to rule the kingdom without her father. Finally she snapped under the pressure and sobbed quietly to herself, holding her head in her hands as her maids just ignored her, knowing she wanted to be alone.

Amy's hands were sore from holding the arrows, but she didnt give up "aw man, i missed one again" she said, riding back up to try again, this time she fell off Tridon because his foot got stuck, she rolled onto the floor, getting up quickly "Tridon...did you break anything" she aske very worried, she checked the horses hoves, they seemed to be fine, she exhaled sharply "woo, thank god" she said, getting up again "ok, one more time, this time i'll make it, i promise" she said patting him

Radford nodded as he followed her out, going to his room to get some sleep.
Syrva's hooves clopped on the ground as Roran returned her to the stables. Sighing, he patted her neck, walking up to the castle. Navigating the halls, he passed Amaya's room and heard crying. Raising his hand to knock on her door, he stopped himself, deciding against it. We aren't that close yet. Just leave her alone, Roran. Sighing, he walked to his room, grabbing a book, and reading in the firelight.

Vivian sighed, having just finished with her food, wandering around the castle now. Extremely...bored. The hollowness didn't help any. Finding herself near the horses stalls, she went inside cautiously, peering at the different ones in there. She saw Crow immidiatly, but didn't approach, she could already feel all of the horses uneasiness to her presence. Frowning, she saw a black mare tied up in the back-most stall, walking over to her. The mare winnied(sp?), fighting against her bonds.
"Shh, shh...why are you tied up? You're so beautiful..." She asked, still outside the stall, holding a hand out to the black horse. Looking around quickly, she slipped inside, drawing her sword. "I'm not here to hurt you. I'm just...sad, and bored. what about you?"
A snort was her reply, Vivian smirking a little as she cut away the ropes, freeing the mare. Watching this gorgeous creature get up, she very hesitantly held out a hand to stroke the mare's muzzle, unsure of what would happen then. The horse seemed to sniff her just as cautiously, finally nuzzling her hand and letting her stroke her. Smiling, Vivian petted the horse gently, giving a small giggle. "I'm guessing that you are also a wild one like me. Am I right?" The horse winnied in approval, making her laugh. "I could just tell. Hmmm....You need a name. I shall call you...Delene. I've always liked the name."

Amaya sat in her room, just crying for a few hours until she finally wore herself out. She collapsed on her bed for a few hours, having nightmares that her kingdom was on fire, and her sisters had been killed.
She woke at the sun's first rays with Kaname gently shaking her. "Queen Amaryllis, everything is ready and it is time to go." Kaname said as she sat her up, brushing out her hair. Amaya just nodded quietly as Kaname finished her hair, and then headed down to the stables, putting the black cloak over her mourning gown. Her hair was simple, nothing adorning her head or dress as she walked quietly down the halls like a ghost, nobody got in her way and the horses seemed quiet, except for Crow, who whinned softly, trying to comfort her master.

Amy tried again, this time she succeeded "yes" she shoute, letting Tridon go, she had ridden him without a saddle, so she didnt have to clean him, though she didnt go back inside, she planned to train her bow and arrow in hiding more, so she began, she wouldnt leave until she got it three times in a row

Smiling at Delene, she heard someone come into the stables, tilting her head and peeking out. "Amaya...." She whispered, hiding in Delene's stall. She hadn't slept that night, she hadn't needed to. She kept herself hidden until her eldest sister left, then Vivian would change into something that she could ride in. She wanted to learn now, not caring about what any stupid seer said ages ago.

Amy had cuts in her face and all over her body, from the countless branches she ran inot while hiding and shooting, but she didnt care, she had to become perfect, she saw the first bits of sun rise "i still havent eaten once..." she said smiling...then getting back to shooting, she saw one huge trail of blood almost cover her eye, aparently she had run into something that cut her on her forehead, she wiped away the blood and went on

His eyes caught a shadow pass under his door. Springing to his feet, he was happy someone had risen from their bed. Opening his door slowly, he didn't want to frighten the person. Looking their way, he saw a black cloak, long enough to cover the person's feet, making it seem like they floated. Closing his door silently, he gave silent pursuit, following this person to the stables.
As he watched the person mover through the halls and the grounds, he came to a conclusion that it was female. She seemed graceful, Roran could tell she did some type of dance. As she entered the stables, he followed, but Syrva's neigh gave him away. "Syrva!" he hissed in a joking manner, completely curious who his stalkee was.

Amy took a short break to catch her beathe, and then went out to practice shooting out in the open, she stood in the middle, shooting arrows in every direction to hit the trees she had marked as shields,

Amaya turned, seeing Roran as she smiled weakly. "Hello. I didn't expect anyone to be up this early." She said as she loooked at him, putting a bridal on Crow.

Vivian turned her head, hearing a horse whinny, she was about to come out of hiding too. Ducking back behind Delene, she had already slipped on the bridle and sadle, making sure that she was fed and watered as well. Still wearing black, instead of a dress, she was wearing pants and a shirt and vest, a cloak also around her shoulders to fend off the cold, and to hide her face. Strapping her quiver across her back along with her bow, she had her sword at her side hopping up onto Delene's back. Leaning forward over the black mare's neck, she let Delene gallop out of the stables to the fields, figuring that it would be the best place to practice riding. She had braided her white hair back into a bun, the shadow cast by the cloaks hood obscuring most of her face. Recalling what her father had done when teaching her sisters, she immitated them, getting the hang of things in no time.

"Be careful Vivian." Amaya called to her youngest sister. "I suggest you find Amy for some riding lessons first." She told her sister before she left, completely aware that she was there. She finished saddling Crow and then looking at Roran, sighing a little. "I'm leaving for Keros. Your father is already aware, and I shall return in a fortnight, but you and your brothers will eventually have to start spending time in Keros." She said softly as she looked at him.

AMy again missed one arrow, she threw the bow at the ground "damn thing, one shield, one, just one, cant be so god damn hard" she shouted, withdrawing the arrows and picking up the bow again, blood running infront of her eye again, she wiped it away and continued to aim and shoot
