One of the guards walked over to me and unlocked my cuffs, slipping the restrains into his pocket. The princess extended her arm towards an empty chair.
“Please sit down and make yourself comfortable.” She said with a smile, then she turned and headed off into another room.
I walked up from the doorway and sat down in the chair she pulled up. I was nervous, she seemed nice but after what I have already seen, I couldn’t trust anything in this place.
Not long after I sat down, she returned with two glasses in her hand, each one full of some strange red juice. She approached me and handed the glass over to me. I looked down at it and back at her. I wasn’t sure if I trusted her enough to drink something she prepared. Noticing the look on my face, she retracted her arm and poured a bunch of it in her own cup, then lifted the mug up to her mouth to chug a bunch of it.
Lowering her glass, she hand me my glass again. I reluctantly take it. Even though she proved it wasn’t poisoned or something, I still wasn’t sure if I was being tricked or something.
While my fingers went cold from the chill of the glass, she pulled up a chair and sat down across from me before chugging more of the drink.
Taking a chance, I take a sip of the drink myself. It was tomato juice. I wasn’t partial to the stuff myself, but at least it wasn’t poison. The princess lowered her glass in time to see what I did and she gave another large smile.
“What do you think?” She asked.
“At least it’s not poison-” I covered my mouth, I immediately regretted what I had said. However, to my surprised, she gave off a loud chortle.
“You don’t have to worry about that, you haven’t done anything worthy of execution.”
I took another sip in hopes that it’ll continue to please her. She said she wouldn’t kill me, but I wasn’t willing to take that risk.
“Anywho, I was hoping to discuss your current situation.” She continued pausing to see my response. I wasn’t sure what kind of face I was making at the time, but it was clearly not something offensive. “You’re in the lovely little hamlet of Berry Blitzkrieg. In our land, we value justice and the eradication of evil more than anything.”
She stood up, her chest puffed up with pride as she spoke down to me.
“Those people you saw down stairs, those are commoners, people from all over the Omniverse turning to use for protection. Our army has saved many from orcs, trolls, and many other invaders. It is our pride to save people, and to slice evil from its roots.”
While I can understand her sentiment, after all I’ve already seen, I wasn’t sure if this was a brand of justice I could really buy into. Then again, Undyne surprised me with her compassion, maybe this Princess will as well?
She sat down and looked me straight in the eyes before continuing.
“Now, despite being so young, you have some magical ability in you. Many saw you with some magical heart ability downtown, which is probably worth something on the battlefield. But more importantly, I can’t sense you.”
She looked me over much more sternly.
“Normally I can know everything about a person just by looking at them, but you, you come up nothing. The power to suppress that took me years to master, yet a young child like you could do it like it was nothing. You’re gifted, and that’s something you need to build off of, and we can provide you with those building blocks. We can pave the way to your future.”
She reached over and grabbed my hands, held them up in front of us.
“We want you to join us.”
“Please sit down and make yourself comfortable.” She said with a smile, then she turned and headed off into another room.
