Company:: Clothing:: Royal attire with Silver CrownFeeling:: Unsure, pondering Condition:: Healthy Location:: Garden area Currency:: $2000 EC Items:: Hidden twin daggersOOC:: Open to anyone wanting to bother a princess who is thinking out loud.  Princess Esther Drosselmyer of Lionis She can't shake this feeling that something is wrong or out of place or forgotten. There has been an odd feeling attaching itself to Esther as of late, but why. There was something in her that wanted to see change perhaps? Maybe her brother Alistair was onto something with his sagely world garbage he was speaking about last time in father's throne room. Esther pondered on the words for a moment before then shaking them off. Would Alistair's words mean a thing to Gareth? She smiles as she finds herself questioning if her weakling of a brother cared as if she cared for that answer in the first place. If only Tatiana were here with Esther, walking the courtyard as she is right now. Then maybe they could have some sporting sparring to get rid of this boredom and other puzzling feelings from her mind. She nears a rose most vibrant and lovely that happened to catch her eyes but it wasn't its beauty that attracted her to this flower. On its thorn Esther could see that a portion of a birds foot was let upon the rose and with a wicked smile she is reminded of the bellrisian prince which helped her and Gareth a few times during their father's war for the throne. "I wonder what that Roland is up to right about now."

Ursula had been walking aroundt the courtyard, now that she was married she felt the desire to stay in Lionis grow more and more each day, her husband was a complete arse! She looked around and saw her younger sister, a frown on her face as she walked toward her, listening to her words. The slightly insane woman smiled, her long silver hair trailing behind her before she turned and sat next to her little sister "Now why on Epsilon would you wonder about that traitor?" she asked, turning her head up to look at her sister.
Today was a rare day where her blindfold was off. her mismatched eyes stareing up at her sister. She hadn't seen her in a very long time, not since well... before the war, so that would be months right? Three months of war, and than every month after that, so actually that was quite a bit "do you fancy the traitor?" she asked her.

Company:: Clothing:: Royal attire with Silver CrownFeeling:: Uplifted Condition:: Healthy Location:: Garden area Currency:: $2000 EC Items:: Hidden twin daggersOOC:: Princess Esther Drosselmyer of Lionis Esther wasn't expecting company. She was so slightly startled to hear her sister's voice but she looked at her blue and red eyes with an amused smile hinted in her own steely blue gaze. "Oh my, no! I'm simply curious about an old coworker is all." Esther says with a giggle to ease her wicked sister's mind. She knew all too well how manipulative Ursula can be. Its a trait that sort of runs in their family after all, from the eldest member to the baby of the clan. "Greetings sister." Esther switches topic tracks, holding her sister in a hug for only a moment before wondering about her as well. "I'm both glad and surprised to be seeing you here. Were you not married off to some huffy stuff shirt noble? It feels as though we haven't talked in years. How has life treated you Ursula?"

Ursula smirked "Yes. My marriage to that Phobosian Duke was planned by father without my consent. I went to speak with him a month before the wedding and we came to an accord.... however it is not a happy marriage" Ursula said to her. Reaching her hand over and letting her fingers run though Esther's dark locks "Have you ever found it interesting that my hair is like the moon's?" she asked her "and yours is like the darkness? Our sister Elentiya's is like the sun and Tatiyana's is like the stars?" Ursula said, chuckling slightly as she moved her hand away from her little sisters long hair "Don't be surprised when father marry's you off to someone far beneath your station as well" she said, a hint of bitterness in her voice "From what I hear Elentiya will become queen of Zalto soon, which leaves you and Tatiana to be wed, and with father as ambitious as he is I wouldn't doubt that he will force a marriage upon you soon" she said, looking out across the courtyard, Ursula sighed "I do not enjoy being away from the capital. Phobos stinks and is full to the brim with uncultured heathens. A place our dear Tatiana would probably have preferred to be married into." Ursula commented before looking down at her stomach, choosing to keep her current condition a secret, her husband had been lucky to get her with child on the first night for she would never lay with him again so long as she had will left in her body "Despite all that, Ursula Achmetha of House Drosselmyer, Princess of Lionis and Duchess of Phobos doesn't have a bad sound to it."

Company:: Ursula Clothing:: Royal attire with Silver CrownFeeling:: Uplifted Condition:: Healthy Location:: Garden area Currency:: $2000 EC Items:: Hidden twin daggersOOC:: Princess Esther Drosselmyer of Lionis "That's quite lamentable to hear, actually." Esther hardly ever showed true emotion. She usually hides behind her mask of pure beauty and gives out false signals to make others think they known whats she's feeling at any given time. But to hear her sister forced into the arms of a man she did not love only added to her disliking of her father. Esther's relationship with her father is complicated and not an easy one to explain. She loves him for that is her father and she understands his cruelty a lot, yet he dose things she can not fully support at times and thus she hates him for being the way he is. Her mother and the mother of her sisters were like playthings to her father and ever since Esther found a romance on the battlefield she's seen her father in a different light. When Ursula reached for her hair Esther stood still and let her sister's fingers comb through. It was kind of nice to have sisterly affection shown from Ursula but Esther couldn't but feel that this was her sister's way of asking for attention. Perhaps Esther was just over thinking things but she can't shake the feeling that something is wrong. "Your title is a fetching one, but if father tries marrying me to some pathetic twerp he'll be getting an ear full from me. Hell, I might even run into the arms of a traitor just to stick it to his craw!" Esther smiles and teased, feeling that someone also not liking father's choices was something her sister needed to hear. "Tatiana would probably give you her own mouthful if she overhead you." Ester giggles at the amusing thought of it. "And I'm slightly surprised you didn't do the same against father. Didn't you feel like trying to rebel in the slightest?" Esther asks out of curiosity while her feet begin to guide her in a walk; her eyes having noted the peculiarity in her sister's attention to her stomach.

Ursula chuckled slightly as she followed her sister "oh every day of my life I desire to rebel against that man" she stated as she let her long white hair trail after her upon the ground, keeping in step with her sister "However I prefer to do so in a way that wont jeopardize my station, after all I'm already far down the line of succession and with fathers... dislike for what feels like all of his daughters, I prefer to not give him any reason to get rid of me. After all I am closer to the throne than Tatiana or you or Elentiya, not that it matters since shes about to be queen in the west" Ursula sighed " but anyway, so long as he has no more sons any child I have will next in line after Gareth" She shrugged "Would you really run off with a traitor just to spite him? I know we haven't been royalty for that long but its far greater than being heiresses to a duchy. He could disinherit you or send someone out to rip your throat out" Ursula said.

Company:: Ursula Clothing:: Royal attire with Silver CrownFeeling:: Concerned Condition:: Healthy Location:: Garden area Currency:: $2000 EC Items:: Hidden twin daggersOOC:: Princess Esther Drosselmyer of Lionis "You have a valid point." Esther says as she and her sister take a stroll through the yard. "But would father really do so much against me? Disinherit of course, but sending assailants would probably be too much trouble. I'm too weak to pose a threat to father...but that's why he'd send them I guess. He knows I'd seek out power in order to defeat my foe and that's why I threatened to run to the one who could save me." Esther sighs and with a batting of eyelashes she tries to drift away from those thoughts and happens to see a flower in bloom. "You painted quite a beautiful image of us with your words Ursula. I am the night and Tatiana the stars, while Elentiya the happy sunshine that she is and you as elegant as the moon. Shouldn't we be free to feel as beautiful in life as we do in your imagery? Do you feel like you are free to feel that way, Ursula?" Esther stops to comb a delicate strain of her sister's moonlight hair, and with eyes of concern she waits to hear her sister's answer.

Ursula shook her head "I'm afraid not. We are not free, and no one ever will be, not until death. And even then it is possible that we will not be as our deaths are governed by the gods" Ursula said and looked at the flowers "Even now I must obey father or I must obey my husband... so in a way marriage is a form of death, and one will only be free when they yield all power and responsibility, all desire for things and just roam as the nomads to" Ursula shrugged and in truth sister, no one is beautiful to me. Face's are masks that hide ones true intentions, even children once they learn to lie are ugly beyond measure, and it only gets worse when one grows and lets their ugliness twist their insides, but why the gods do not smite the wicked when they know all this I will never understand" Ursula said as she took her sisters arm in hers and walked with her "We are not free to feel anything... not outwardly, showing emotions can be dangerous, loving someone can get you or them killed. Even loving family can be a fault... speaking of such a thing as family. My... Resources have told me that the Lionis line might not all be dead just yet." She said, her eyes sliding over to Esther "Rumor circles that one of Cousin Apollion's b*****d daughters survived Empress Catherines short reign" Ursula lowered her voice to a whisper.

Alistair Drosselmeyerstarting ec:1000 Alistair was struck thinking over what Esther had told him. He spent some days getting used to the castle. he decided that would never be something he would do. putting on a light jacket he left his room. leaving Athena to sleep. His walk ended with him finding the courtyard. as he walked through he could not help but notice how pristine it seem. did the war even happen?
as he walked the sound of different feet on the gravel caught his attention. as he made a corner. he saw Esther and Ursula. this surprised him. had Ursula become nicer? or was this just a view he was not supposed to see. as he got closer he could hear some of the end of the conversation before Ursulla began to whisper. " sisters." he called out to them, to not startle them. mentally he put his worries away. there was always something to worry about.

 ▁ ▂ ▃ ▄ ▅ ▆ ▇ Aimi Hayashi ❛Love the things you love.❜
Mood: Giddy | With: No one | Money: $150ECThe maid hums, carrying a small basket full of basic cleaning supplies. She supposed that carrying stuff like this near plants is irresponsible, but she couldn't resist the courtyard. She had finally changed into her outfit and had gotten started a bit. She works mostly cleaning as she can't cook and she's quite clumsy and can't carry trays to serve the royals. Her humming turns into soft singing, her voice wasn't necessarily gorgeous but quite decent for someone who has never touched an instrument or taken lessons. She sings a soft lullaby about a prince and a peasant, obviously she has been reading too many romance novels. "Softly and quietly, sing me to sleep." She twirled quietly, her feet gently brushing the ground. As a child she had dreamed of becoming a dancer but the lessons were pricey and her parents could not afford to admit her.

Alistair DrosselmeyerAlistair stumbled unto the gardens his body still shook from his last transformation. his mind raised with what he had learned. even know his back ached. thee tattoo of the blue whispers almost burning. he had finally gotten he answers to his questions. now what? the prince fell as he lost control of his body once more. his golden curls covering his face. he stood int he garden for what felt like hours before a soft singing brought his mind back. witha low growl he stood up. his hands on his face s if he was just waking up from a nap. he took a deep breath to calm himself. Icy Bubble Pop ooc: sorry thats its nto to good.

▁ ▂ ▃ ▄ ▅ ▆ ▇ Aimi Hayashi ❛Singing is a good way to express feelings❜
Mood: Confused | With: Stranger | Money: $150ECAimi walked a little farther, admiring the colorful flowers, still singing. Her gray dress wavered in the breeze, along with her hair, making some white and tinted purple strands to fall in front of her face. She was about to brush the strands away, her gaze moving upwards and spotting Alistair. Her face heated up, stopping her singing from embarrassment. She clenched the basket's handle, her knuckles turning white from the tight grip. Her purple and blue pupils shrunk in size like a deer in headlights. "Uh excuse me I d-d-didn't see you there......" Her face went blank, her cheeks flushing pink. How utterly humiliating, singing in front of someone who may be of higher power than a simple maid like herself.

Alistair DrosselmeyerAlistair shook his head. " do not worry young maiden." tho his voice sounded stable he did not feel it. his legs felt as they where wobbly. he decided to take a sit in one of the benches. he still had not had a look at who he was with. he turned to face her. " i am sorry for disturbing you. are you a new hire?" her face did not seem like one of the ones he had seen on his last visit to the castle.

Mood: Embarrassed | With: A Stranger | Money: $150EC"Y-y-yes I j-just started today. Excuse me for intruding but are you alright? Y-you d-d-dont looks so w-well." My she definitely had a stuttering problem, gripping the basket with both hands she shifted her weight from one foot to another, trying to focus on something other than the man in front of her. She was not a people person. She stared at the ground, her eyes wide and a faint embarrassed blush lingered on her face. She was never going to live this down, that was for sure.
