[Approximately two hours have passed regarding the incident with the Swindlers Guild. Emperor sent Kuma, Lucienne, and Crimson on their way to check for Emerald and Christopher to confirm their whereabouts while he dealt with matters at Ottenmore]
"State your names!"
Standing in the middle of a large room was a tall lady. She had blonde hair tied into a ponytail and heavy steel armor. She carried a massive lance and wielded a shield in her other hand.
"Legolas."
"Jacob."
"U-Umm... Alice!"
The three hostages were bowing on their knees in front of my throne, a bit confused, specifically Alice.
She was the most confused out of everyone else; assuming it was from that brainwashing spell put on her that Angelica talked about.
"Wh-Why're we here exactly?" Asked Legolas.
"Shut your mouth!" The tall blonde stabbed her lance into the ground, a few inches from Legolas
"Uhhh!" Legolas jumped back, falling on his butt.
