Kamillah let out another air of laughter from her lips before she looped her arms around Lucan's, linking the two together as she is escorted to her designated carriage.<br/><br/>"Lead the way, Ser Lucan," the lady replied with her version of a mocking tone before she placed her feet on the carriage steps. Another guard opened the carriage door, in which she made her entrance before she sat on a side of the seat whose window is closest to Lucan. As he made his rounds on speaking about his duties as a knight, and his assignment and honor to serve Kamillah until her last day.<br/><br/>As honored as he was to protect the soon-to-be lady of House Follard, Kamillah was honored to have her friend back by her side. Since years back when he joined the Greyjoy Rebellion, they have never received the luxury of meeting and greeting like they've done in their youth. Things and relationships change within time, but it was nice to reunite with old friends from time to time.<br/><br/>To be sure that Kamillah can be fully protected, she accepted the knife that Lucan had offered and twirled it with the fingers of her dominant, left hand. She will be sure and get acquainted with the weapon if push comes to shove, but this is not the first time Kamillah had used a weapon before. Her father, Moloc, had taught her the necessities of combat while growing up; even though his teachings of being her own person was fleeting was one Lord Erdhart requested a betrothal of their two children.<br/><br/>It is odd to say the least, since Moloc now prefers better land and wealth than the pride and honor he had held through his Essos roots. Whether to believe it or not, Kamillah's ancestors, who were born and raised in Essos, sailed to Westeros during Aegon Targaryen's reign. They made land in the Crownlands to build a new life under the peaceful rule of the first King of the Seven Kingdoms. However, as they bore children, and their children beget their children and so on, their point of views, and their stance on things, changed. Now the family are pro-Baratheon and anti-Lannister, just like the rest of the houses who trust the stag and hate the lion.<br/><br/>A shout from one of the guards have alarmed both the horses and their riders before they begin their trot. As they trail their way away from the Follard estate, Lucan found the opportunity to ask about her betrothal to William. His question could be out of concern, since betrothals are not the ideal means of a long and happy marriage; but her assumption is out of naivete, for she didn't know that his question was not out of concern, but out of a love that he knew he cannot give to his lady.<br/><br/>"It was... nerve-wracking, to say the least," Kamillah replied with eyes dotted towards the carriage's front window, which shows the back end of the two horses that are responsible for the turning of the wheels. "To be introduced to a house and the man that you are expected to marry can be overwhelming. However, ever since the death of King Robert," she took a brief pause before she continued her sentence, "the Crownlands are in need to keep themselves strong."<br/><br/>"However," she added with the slightest bit of optimism in her voice, "the Follards are great people. William is sweet, kind, and respectful of my boundaries-- something I wouldn't expect in a betrothal at all." Did she have anymore to say? No. For some reason, these were the only good things that she had discovered while living in the Follard estate. However, her views might be better once she becomes the lady of House Follard in a year's time. She only hopes if the political stars are aligned in the way that doesn't harbor tension and war due to their new king.
