It had been the answer she?d expected, but that did not mean it pleased her. Glancing down at the young girl that was tending to the man?s wounds, she took a moment to examine his face. It looked weathered and he seemed confused, but she refused to be fooled so easily. Turning back to the Prince, she lifted her chin in a haughty sort of manner that would have been appropriate for a Lady of court and smiled bitterly. ?Is this how it is going to be in the heat of battle, Highness?? the word was obviously awkward falling from her lips and her scathing tone did not help to amend the sarcasm that lingered after she had spoken. It should have been apparent at that point her dislike for their leader.
?If providing adequate protection for your people is considered stooping to their level, I am convinced my opinion of you was not misguided after all. He is an enemy, and one that would not hesitate to kill one of our own should we have strayed too far from the boundary.? Her voice was hard but retained a strange sort of feminine quality renowned amongst such creatures as the Nymphs. ?Obviously he cannot be of that much use to Miraz if he managed to wind up lost, unaccompanied and as vulnerable as he is now. Either he did something wrong and was shunned by his people or it is a trap. Why else would he be here in this state. He won?t be of any help to us like this at all, and what makes you so confident he will provide us with the answers we need? If he is as loyal and highly-esteemed as you say, he will do everything in his power to remain true to his leader.? Finished for the moment, she folded her arms and allowed the minute silence to fill the small circle of people.
None of them said anything, just looked on in curiosity with anxious expressions. The fact was Lirain knew some of them felt the same. One would be able to tell simply by their body language over the past few days. Nothing was certain except for the revenge they sought so desperately.
?You should not allow your former ties to these people to make your decisions for you.?

It was just a little fun, lighten up. (rubs his cheek) You're lucky you're a lady, else I'd have boxed your ears.
