"Although it's not something I'd recommend normally, would your kin accept her as your prisoner of war? Even as a hostage, she'd still be a valuable one," he stated cautiously. Prisoners of war wasn't something he wanted to see Sybil labelled as, but hostage was a much better title than corpse. "Not that you value her and I more than your own blood, but how you value the newly founded peace between our two sides. She'll show that you aren't going to be the same blood crazed fiend Ava was." The upbringing in a diplomatic society was definitely shining through, his mind as turbulent as it was, he was still able to find compromises.<br/><br/>Although he knew nothing about the way Elara's politics worked, he knew even here that proving one's own success more so than their predecessors would have power. Showing that she could help heal the region from the war Ava had waged would be a massive step for her. But it was a pretty bold faced lie to tell, considering Sybil had indeed killed two of Elara's own forces. Even as her Prince, Cyne was unsure how he would have faced this the other way around. If a loose vampire had been the one to come into his father's kingdom and murder two knights after the treaty, the vampire likely would've been roasted at the stake. And Sybil was hardly putting herself into the proper situation to hope to sway Elara's opinions.<br/><br/>Even from behind the bars, Sybil could tell there was a bit of tension between the two figures of political prowess before her. Except one was a Prince, and the other was simply the leader of a realm of leeches. From the sounds of it, she wasn't even that good of a leader either, being Queen ever since that leech Ava's death. There was already strife in her realm, and she was fighting to retain a positive image in the after math of a war. But even now, as Sybil thought of ways to get Prince Cyne out of here, she could tell her very presence posed an issue for the vampire. Unfortunately, she realized that if she were to have any chances of getting out of here alive, with Prince Cyne accompanying her, she'd have to play into the leech's hands.
