".......If he keeps it up ... I might just LET Garland kidnap me...."
╼ ༺ :|| The other discord warriors departed, each going about their separate ways here and there. No surprise either as many held their own agendas and few extending full cooperation- arrogant and destructive in varying degrees all according to their own agendas. Alliances were often of a strained variety, merely a means to an end. One such as hers with that Emperor was no different. And once time compression reached fruition, then even he, too, would be discarded like the rest. But she was not above using others, nor playing along her comrade's schemes to further her own. It was, after all, mutually benefitting until time crowned her its sole queen.
Therefore, Ultimecia lingered, awaiting the time when she could at last approach the summoned first. A plot in motion, she set her golden sights upon Garland's ominous helm and desired complete attention.
Amor ever the obstacle determining the other's demeanor, she nevertheless cast caution aside, boldly presenting an offer straight way. "You've taken kommand with ease amongst your allies. Admirable as it is, a wayward soul as yours desires battles in service of his charge, and I kould not help but notice you are without in this realm. Perhaps you would konsider bekoming my knight."

"Must you always sacrifice your happiness for your sense of duty?" ( @falsestalwart / garland )
His words sent a shiver down her spine. Sarah did everything in her power to present herself as nothing but content, positive, filled with light! All the things a Princess of Cornelia should be. So Garland's confrontation caught her entirely by surprise! Not just because he had spoken so bluntly to the royal highness but because ... he could tell how she was truly feeling.
"Oh, but I AM happy ..." she insisted in tone SLIGHTLY defensive. ".....I am. If ... my family and the people of our kingdom smile. That's all I need. I think ... my dear knight ..that you might be reading into things a little too much."

her breath went still. a flush spread across the canvas of her beautiful face as she watched His magnificence in the heat of battle. the haunting lament of silver slicing through skin, breaking bone, and spilling life. ( the color of blood … bright red or dark crimson. all so dependent on the freshness and age of the wound. a web made up entirely of flawless hues inside a worthless human cage. ) love blinded her in ways that made her seem pathetic. how far could she possibly follow him ? why continuously harbor such devotion for someone who would never return her feelings ?
she’d allow him anything of her if he asked.
in this moment, she envied the slain, the ravaged, and torn. because it seemed the delight of battle and the song of blades was what made him seemingly come to life. to be at the end of his sword meant to be acknowledged in some way, which was so much more precious than to be ignored ( or treated apathetically )
she heard him speak, of his purpose and wants. the witch nodded, walking briskly over to his side. a hand lifted to rest upon his vambrace ( as if an adoring wife, greeting her husband … Yes ) and the blood that had coated his steel was still hot on her fingertips. she sighed dreamily.
“ yes … you are most beautiful like this, your eminence.” she paused a moment, gaze averted with a shyness resembling a true maiden. “does this … bring you happiness … ?”

cheeks flushed with color as she entered the shrine once more. it had been a couple of weeks since she had seen him last. ( her adoring heart missed him terribly ) — but she took it upon herself to undergo long weeks of tedious reconnaissance of the seemingly empty land & on some days, when fatigue & laziness weighed her down, fina simply picked wildflowers.
at the end of the impromptu journey ... her efforts bore fruit — people, villages, civilization! & it seemed her lovely features granted her open access, being met with many a curious individual. she played the role of a wandering, lost maiden, adoring the questions & attentiveness. as they fawned over her, fina's scholarly mind worked.
their language didn't seem to possess any unique differences from that in the future, aside from a few vocabulary quirks & a lack of metaphorical usages. their clothes were antiquated, haphazardly hand-sewn & with many animal skins. books were not printed but scrolls & paper were in abundance. stone houses, places of worship, currency & more still existed.
ah, but she did not have time to analyze every single difference. she'd be there forever.
upon reaching the top of the staircase, fina grasped the bottom hem of her black gown & performed a sweeping curtsy. “ your eminence, i have returned to you. i wish to inform you of my work. permission to continue, sire ( my love ). "
