@freedomwriter76 Seriously though can Sorren push Asher to do something then if he gets the chance? ‘Cause I can so see his character doing that. He’ll try and dominate anyone he sees as “weaker” ya know what I mean?
DID YOU NOT JUST BAWL MAKING THEM!?!?!?!?
IKR?!!!! đđđđđđđđ
YOU’RE WELCOME!!
We might need to try and be conservative though if we don’t want the walls to come down.
*deep breath*
*thinks of Jayden and Asher…*
WHO CARES ABOUT THE WALLS!?! đȘđȘ

Corvina
All eyes were on her now.
She let out a breath.
HowâŠpeachy.
One of the men, the one with wide eyes, seemed to soften the more he looked at her. They were all older then her, minus the two kids of course (Iâm assuming Sorren and Payton are older then her as well đ€·đ»ââïž) but she didnât let that intimidate her.
She often felt older then she truly was.
The man took a step forward and Corvinaâs eyes narrowed, watching him warily. He smiled sweetly. âIâm Jayden. Donât worry, we wonât hurt you.â
Corvina almost scoffed at that.
HurtâŠher?
PfftâŠas if she was the one that needed reassurance. From the looks of this ragtag group, she could probably take them all in a fight any day of the week.
ThoughâŠshe wasnât sure about the metal weapons some of them held at their sidesâŠsheâd have to watch for those.
StillâŠas if she were scared.
HA!
Verity, the little girl, was still pouting, her eyes full of spark and firelight. Corvina couldnât help but smirk at her. A little firecracker, sheâd bet.
The lass almost walked up to her, but was stopped by her friend, Trevyn, who was staring, scared at Corvina.
Finally, someone here who has some common sense. You donât trust strangers.
Corvina liked this little boy. Though she couldnât make her eyes meet his for more then a second before darting her gaze away.
Verityâs fiery gaze seemed to soften, and the look she gave Corvina made her squirm. What was her deal?
âAre you okay?â The child asked, startling her slightly.
What..?
Corvina pinched her lips shut. Why in the world would she askâŠaghâŠkids.Â
âYou do realize youâre still one yourself.â
Corvina bit her tongue.
Shuddup.
âWhatever you say.â
Corvina stood straight from her position against the wall. âIf you call wandering this forsaken castle for hours upon end okay,â Corvina rolled her eyes, choosing to give a snarky reply in return, âThen yea. Iâm doing great.â
Her eyes scanned the crowd and met another manâs. Sheâd caught his name in the conversation- Sorren, she believed. She glared. She wasnât sure why, but she automatically knew she didnât like this guy.
âAlso, last I checked, choking someone was not the proper way to say hello.â
Not that she had any room to talk, of course, considering the first few times sheâd met Arabella, sheâd attacked her, but oh how she loved the way Sorenâs face twisted in annoyance.
Besides, who wasnât a bit hypocritical now and then?

Verity
âIf you call wandering this forsaken castle for hours upon end okay, then yea. Iâm doing great.â
Verity, miffed and taken a little bit aback, and she didn’t answer.
Whether she knew it or not, Corvina had accomplished the minor miracle of rendering the little girl speechless. For the moment at least. Verity couldn’t make up her mind about Corvina – why did she keep stealing glances at Trevyn? – but she figured she wasn’t the only one in their group that felt that way about the newcomer.
Sorren
Sorren snarled at this newcomer.
“First of all, I wasn’t saying hello so don’t worry, I wouldn’t dream of trying to choke you if that’s what you’re worried about. And second, I never asked for your opinion, girl, so I highly suggest you keep your mouth shut. This is between Payton and me. And that goes for all the rest of you too.” He glared around the entire group.
He fixed Michael with his eyes.
“As for you, again, I’ll ask you to put that weapon down.”
Trevyn
Trevyn kept his eyes fixed steadily on Corvina.
She kept looking at him, almost against her will. She scared him, but those looks in between sarcastic replies and eye rolls went to his heart. And he didn’t know why.

November
Riker was going to climb up firstâŠ
November pinched his lips together and looked away, a mix of shame and embarrassment flooding him.
If only he were that braveâŠ
(YOU ARE BABYâŠSTOP LYING TO YOURSELF! SOB đ)
Then again, he wouldnât have been able to lift Franz even if heâd wanted to. He probably couldâve lifted Naja, though. She was pretty small.
November gave a small smile in Evaâs direction as he watched her rock the little girl gently. She seemed a natural at it, and November wondered if all women were like that.
JustâŠnatural mothers.
Araâs mother was incredible.
So was her father.
Most of the other motherâs heâd met before were good to their own children, though heâd heard stories of bad mothers too. He supposed that could happenâŠjust like bad fathersâŠ.
ButâŠ.
He shook his head; why was he even thinking about this?
He watched anxiously as Riker rolled up his sleeves and prepared to climb the tower. He tugged at his curls, hoping everything would go okay.
Something touched his other hand and he felt warmth flood him. Glancing to his left, he found Ara, squeezing his hand tightly, her eyes focused intently on Riker. They were wide and nervous.
November let out a breath, squeezing her hand back.
If he couldnât help anyone else, at least maybe he could help Ara.
Arabella
Riker wasâŠwas going up.
Araâs stomach twisted as she squeezed Novemberâs hand, latching onto the nearest comfort she could. OhâŠwhat if something happened?
And when they passed up the two sleeping figures?
FranzâŠto be honestâŠ.
She didnât really care as much. She mainly cared because she knew how much it would hurt Riker.
Ara looked away, shame filling her heart.
She didnât hate this man, by any means.
Hate was pretty foreign to Ara. She wasnât accustomed to it. ButâŠFranz made her angry. In ways she couldnât explain.
She didnât hate himâŠ.but that was because she didnât truly know him.
She couldnât hate him because she didnât know his past, or anything about him.
But he made her angry. And he reminded her so much ofâŠ.ofâŠ
Of the one person she did hate.
Her stomach dropped with guilt.
She knew that hate was a terrible thing. No one should hate anyone, butâŠAra did.
Ara hated someone.
And she couldnât help it.
Sheâd never felt this way about anyone else in her life, but this personâŠ
ThatâŠthat manâŠ
She despised him.
She squeezed Novemberâs hand harder, clenching her teeth as hot tears sprung to her eyes.
And she hated herself for hating him.
But he had hurt her friend.
In ways thatâŠ.that no one ever knew.
Ways that she might never know. Ways that her friend didnât even grasp. And she didnât know if heâd ever recover from it.
and for that, she didnât think sheâd ever forgive him.
WELP I ENJOYED WRITING THAT TIDBIT OF ARA! U donât usually see that side of her but yea. Thatâs how she feels about Riven (Novembers father) and itâs a real conflict for her because Hate is not a good thing to hold onto and leads to bitterness, and whil she knows this, she canât seem to let it go (even tho November isnât even bitter about it)

ooooh boi, Sorren XD
Corvina
Girl?
Corvina stuck her tongue against her cheek, clenching her fists until her nails bit into her skin.
If there was one thing she hated, it was being talked down to.
But, this wasnât her group. Wasnât her conversation. So, she waitedâŠ
âAs for you, again, Iâll ask you to put that weapon down.â
So she was right, it was a weapon the other man held. Hm, curious looking thing.
Corvina unclenched her fists and huffed, waiting for this annoying debacle to be over with. She glanced back at the kids.
The girl was now speechless. Heh, Corvina had to smile at that one. Guess she wasnât used to her friendliness being turned down with a snarky comment.
And the boy?
He keptâŠstaring at her. His face was still white as a sheet, like heâd seen a ghost, but heâd at least stopped his shaking somewhat.
Corvina sucked in a breath, forcing herself to hold eye contact with him. She found herself finally able to do so without anyâŠIll consequences.
âCan I help you?â She asked.
The boy squeaked, jumping slightly, his eyes widening. She swallowed, frowning.
Man, is this kid jumpy or what. She reminded Corvina a little bit of that princessâ little friend.
The that sheâd-
She rubbed her right hand as a dull, throbbing pain started, but made sure to keep her focus on the kid.
Stupid curly-haired boyâŠ.
NovemberâŠ
That was his name.
Stupid.
Jumping in front of the girl.
She rubbed her hand as sharp pain shot up through her fingers, like someone was poking her with needles. She winced slightly as she waited for the kidâs reply.

@queen_of_alvastia. @godlyfantasy12. Corvina….XD I love her. XDXDXD
Michael
âAs for you, again, Iâll ask you to put that weapon down.â
Michael scoffed. “As if.”
He was going to protect everyone he could. And who was stupid enough to lower their weapon with their enemy standing literally right in front of them!?
“And if you want him to put it down, your highness,” sarcasm dripped from Jayden’s voice, “then put yours down first.”
Michael glanced at Jayden. “Wow. And here I was…thinking you were the quiet Medic.”
Jayden bit his lip. His gaze fell.
Michael blinked. Did he say something?
Leon
Leon glanced around the room.
The dagger in his hand felt odd, but Leon would use it if push came to shove.
His gaze fell on the girl who had entered the room. She seemed…timid, in some ways. Not so much in others. She had sarcasm, that was for certain. Which Leon didn’t mind.
He glanced back at the others.
Sorren was now glaring at Jayden, and the Medic’s face went white.

@godlyfantasy12. Oh Ara….đđđ I feel ya, girl, I feel ya. đ€đ€đ€
@godlyfantasy12 @freedomwriter76
Yeah…he just put his foot in it XD
Trevyn
Trevyn’s mind went blank. Absolutely totally completely devastatingly blank.
He shifted his weight back and forth. She kept looking at him, like she expected him to actually open his mouth and say something back to her. His heart was going to pound right out of his chest. He just knew it.
Why didn’t Verity say something? She was the talker.
Not him.
Never him.
But she seemed to be in some kind of shock. That made him smile ever so slightly. His bouncy, wild spitfire of a friend standing with her mouth open in stunned silence.
“N – no.” His legs were almost under his control now but his voice wasn’t. He wasn’t even sure if she could hear his response but he couldn’t muscle up the nerve to talk louder. He forced himself to meet her gaze instead of the floor and bit his lip. “I – I just saw you looking- at me – like – y – you knew – knew me or – something.”
Even in Verity’s shock she heard Trevyn’s voice. Corvina had no idea that that was probably one of the longest sentences Trevyn had spoken to a newcomer. Was it something between them that clicked?
