Vivian hadn't heard Roran when she left, and now she had started to head back. Delene was quite calm underneath her, Vivian could tell that she was happy. Smiling to herself, she returned to the castle for a few moments, leaving a note with a servant. "Please give this to Amy." The servant bowed and left, the note told her older sister that she was going to go back home. She really wanted to go back.
Returning to the stables, she just saw Roran and Amaya leave, jumping up onto Delene and dashing off after them. She never did quite catch up, but once they hit town she lowered her hood and caught up. She trotted up to Roran first since he had let her sister lead. "You said something to me before I left?" She asked, tilting her head.

Amy was shaking with cold, the sun was high in the sky, she had been training for almost 24 hours straight "jeez, one more time" she said, riding Tridon back, and then going again, as she finished, she fell off her horse in relief "i did it...i actually hit every single shield, i am so good" she said with a huge smile on her face " i cant believe i did it" she said, dancing in the the rain a little, her clothes not white anymore, but rather brown. She patted Tridon and let him go, then she headed to the castle to eat, change and then sleep.

Looking up from his daze as someone spoke to him personally, he seemed out of it. Staring at the person for what seemed like forever, he snapped himself out of his daze and studied the rider. Once he realized who it was he smiled, looking at her horse. "Ah, yes, I was going to warn you that this horse caused us trouble, and I was trying to tame it, make it docile. I see you did it without needing help. The horse is yours, keep it. A gift from Syra." Winking at her, he only continued to smile.

Vivian couldn't help but chuckle, he was really out of it for a couple of moments there. Her eyes lit up and a grin spread across her face. "Really? I can keep her? Oh thank you!" She wanted to hug him, but that probably wasn't advisable so she didn't. Leaning over to Delene's ear, she stroked her neck. "Hear that Delene?" The horse tossed its head and neighed, making her giggle.
"You know, when I saw her tied up, I figured that the reason was something like that. Wait, she wasn't tame? But..." Looking to her new friends black hair, she sighed and looked away. Maybe mother was right...Maybe I am a witch. Why am I able to practically communicate with animals? Delene turned her head and gave a soft whinny, Vivian giving a reassuring smile to her.

Amy reached the castle so wet that it felt like her skin would fall off, her hair was dripping, and her clothes were so dirty, it seemed like they had always been that color, as soon as she entered the castle one of the maids came to her "my Lady, you are wet, you will get sick" she said grabbing Amy by the hand to get her cleaned up, Amy looked at her "um, i really am fine, i think i just need food, i havent eaten in a long time" she said being pulled behind the maid "i will have food taken to your room, but we need to get you out of these clothes" Amy looked at the back of her head 'hello, who are you...my mother?' she thought "alright fine" she said rolling her eyes, she hated being rude to people bellow her, it made her feel guilty, she liked being at one stage with everyone, though people always treated her royal, she rather disliked that.

"It's not that she wasn't tame. She showed signs of having a rider at some point, but she seemed to hate everyone else. I was working with her, but I wasn't far." Looking at the horse, who's name was apparently 'Delene', he chuckled. "You got farther than I have in the past six months."

Vivian stroked her black beauty's neck, the smile gone. "I see...." Looking to him, her violet eyes seemed a little clouded, troubled. "Thank you I suppose...The only reason I could is because of the fact I have always been able to 'talk' with animals. I can sense their emotions, what they want to say, hold 'converstations' with them...Made my, our," she glanced to Amaya, "mother believe even stronger that I was a witch. I think I'm starting to wonder again..."

Amy got pulled into her room, she was really getting to feel like a small child being bossed around by her mother, the woman brought her new clothes, a dress and high heels, Amy started to laugh "you're not serious right?" she asked, looking at the clothes then at the maid seeing that she had a serious look on her face "right?" she asked again, still looking at her "o my god you are serious" she said her smile disappearing from her face. The maid looked confused "shouldnt i be?" she asked, Amy blinked wildly "well, i dont really wear dresses, they are uncomfortable, and they dont allow training or running, and heels are just made to be broken" she said, the maid looked confused "pardon my saying this my Lady, but princesses wear dresses" she said. Amy got up "yea, um i havent really been acting like a princess, so i will just wear something comfortable" she said "and then i would like to speek with the king" Amy said, the maid opened her eyes wide "why would you want to do that?" she asked, Amy looked at her "well i am sorry to say that that doesnt concern you" she said, the maid bowed "im begging your pardon my Lady, it was out of my place" Amy rolled her eyes "o dont bow, i really dont deserve that much attention, just let him know i want to speek with him" the maid nodded "o and your sister gave me this for you" she said handing Amy an envelope "who? Vivian? why didnt she just come to me herself?" she asked but the maid was already on her way to the king

"That's nonsense. A witch? Nonsense, I say. Just because you are close to animals, doesn't mean you are a witch. It just means you have bonds with animals, they are close to your heart. Most men love that trait." he winked, knowing it shouldn't bother her. He was betrothed to Amaya anyways, and Vivian was much too young. Plus, he sort of liked Amaya at the moment. He hoped that feeling would evolve into something more in him, and in his Princess.

Vivian blushed just as a normal reaction, wishing she could purge those thoughts from her head, but they had been slashed too deep and scarred over. Her face was pale again, recognizing a face from the crowd that surrounded them. Pulling her hood up quickly, it was a little too late. She heard the shout, then the other yells that joined in with the first, turning to him quickly. "Thank you again." She said to him quickly with a sort of bow, Delene already quickening to a trot, then a canter, people moving aside for the mob as others moved for her. Galloping towards the castle, she seemed to shrink on the back of her beautiful black mare, rotten fruit and who knows what else being thrown at her. They were the religious bastards that had plagued her since before time it felt like. Once she was inside the walls, the crowd stopped and left with a loud muttering, herself still not stopping until she was in the stable.
Dismounting, she led Delene to an empty stall, removing the bridle and saddle, washing and brushing her down. Once done, she fed and watered Delene, checking her hooves to ensure that she was fine.

Amy was a very impatient person, and after the maid hadnt returned still, she decided to go anyway, she stood infront of the kings door, she knocked silently
"King Radford?" she asked not opening the door.

Radford nodded as the maid told him that Princess Amy wanted to speak with him. Heading to her room, he knocked on the door. "You wanted to see me?" His boomy voice asked through the wooden door.
Roran frowned as she ran ahead, watching as the fruits were flung. Having Syrva step infront of the mob, Syrva had no problem, she was a heroic horse. "hey leave her alo-" he stopped as he was hit in the face with an apple, himself toppling over off Syrva's back. Syrva instantly, by instinct, reared up, protecting her fallen rider. Rising to his feet, he drew his sword. Walking to be infront of Syrva, he calmed his horse down. "Calm down girl. No harm done." Turning to the mob, he pointed his sword out to protect himself, keeping a fair distance.
"You...you people disgust me. She's done nothing to you, NOTHING! Yet, because of her white hair, and violet eyes, you outcast her? Well, then outcast me! I am Roran, Prince of Syra, King Radford's eldest son, and heir to Syra's throne. My hair is white! My skin is tanner than most of yours! If you hate her, then hate me!" Looking at them, his face was full of disgust and sorrow for Vivian. These are her people and they outcast her.
"She is your Princess, one of the royal line. Now, I'm not sure if she enjoys being royalty, but even if she doesn't, you people are the ones holding her up! If you leave her, she'll fall forever and die! No one, not even any of you deserves that!"
"If this is what Keros's people treat someone of the Royal line for being slightly different, I'm surprised Keros hasn't gone to civil war! Now, control yourselves! She's your Princess, so find something you have in common, and learn to love her! She will love you back, I'm quite sure."

Amy saw the king in her room just as she was about to go to him herself because the maid was taking so long, she put on a small smile "indeed...i have one..actually two questions, concerning two different situations" she said sighing "and i do hope that i get an answer, even though it isnt right to let the smaller ones know about what is going on....but i need to know percisely, i only know so much, and I wish to know more, now that father has died" she said, but as she spoke of her father dying she didnt even flintch, she just had that smile on her face, though it wasnt big, it was more curious. "so i was hoping that you could tell me, seeing that Roran and Amaya have gone, and well i have not yet met the other princes, and i doubt that they know anything anyway, but i need to know, otherwise i shall have no sleep tonight or any other nihgt" she said noticing that he was staring at her clothes, since they were more manly than princess like, but she didnt bother much, it was how she liked to dress, and she didnt beg for anothers opinion.

Radford nodded at her words. "Okay, so, what is it you want to know?" He noticed her clothes were a little off for a Princess. Shaking it off, he realized Roran went down to the peasants a lot. Some Royalty did un-royalty-like things. her dressings were probably one of those things.
