<span style="font-family:Sofia">Amira was getting frustrated. As the guards grabbed onto her arms roughly, they pulled her toward a massive building. Was it.. A castle? From the way they were dressed and with the way they spoke, she could only imagine that she had fallen so deeply into a live action role play that she was in over her head. With a heavy sigh she held onto her knees, her heels tossed aside like trash. She was shaking, water dripping in her cell and onto her forearm. Everyone kept saying how she was a harlot, and every time she narrowed her eyes. <span class="fixed-color" style="color:#cc99ff">"I'm right here, you idiot!"</span> In response they simply banged on her cell and she backed away. Confident laughter carried them away and she sat there, shivering in the cell.<br/>
<br/>
She was sure that it was sunny and beautiful outside, and if she could just get to the streets and call for an uber or taxi.. She knew that she would be okay. Amira just badly wanted to get home, and needing a key to aid in her escape she knew that it wasn't going to happen anytime soon. Shutting her eyes, she rested her forehead on her arms and trembled. Amira knew that if she was going to outlast this place and find some sort of semblance of peace, that she was going to have to get some rest and her eyes were getting heavy. She took a few deep breaths before some sort of chanting came outside her cell. They were talking about sins, and repentance and Amira couldn't help but quirk a brow. <br/>
<br/>
Seeing her face, the holy warrior clad in red seemed to judge her before letting her speak. Right as her lips parted, so did his jabbering, and as she tried to listen to him, it all turned to white noise. <span class="fixed-color" style="color:#ff4d4d">(Seek redemption in his Holy light, and repent for your sins, Harlot.)</span> Amira's eyes looked like they had been lit aflame and she glared over at him. <span class="fixed-color" style="color:#cc99ff">"What... Did you call me?"</span> She felt her posture begin to relax and when his eyes seemed to harden, it seemed destined for their confrontation. He walked closer to her cell, almost as if he was challenging her and her merit, before whispering the word whore to her, against the bars.<br/>
<br/>
She felt rage begin to boil in her chest, but instead she shut her eyes and shook her head. <span class="fixed-color" style="color:#cc99ff">"When I meet a stranger, instead of judging them.. I introduce myself, but I suppose you haven't been taught manners have you, little boy?"</span> A heavy clang met the bars and so did the thunder of his voice. <span class="fixed-color" style="color:#ff4d4d">(Silence! Where have you come, and by whose command?)</span> Amira tilted her head and looked at him and shrugged her shoulders. <span class="fixed-color" style="color:#cc99ff">"Look, I don't even know where I am. All I know is that after work, I was walking through an alley and some guy started telling me about a gate and how it only opened every millenia.."</span> She sighed and looked away knowing that he wouldn't believe her and her silly stories. Shutting her eyes she felt her jaw tighten. <span class="fixed-color" style="color:#cc99ff">"If you could just get me a car, I'll go back to my apartment and I'll get out of the way in.. Whatever this is." </span><br/>
<br/>
Her hands motioned to the cell and what he was wearing, but there seemed to be no humor in his voice. As he began to badger her about how she was talking about false truths, there seemed to be a voice behind him.. One that was deep and held purpose. He seemed to hold some sort of standing seeing how the idiot backed up and bowed lightly. When he spoke about it being the King, she looked at him and noticed scales and.. Horns? Geez.. They really got into this role playing thing.. Didn't they? She looked at him, curious as to whom this man was and his skin seemed flawless, his eyes lavender and quite captivating. Her lips parted slightly, her heart skipping a beat when his eyes finally met hers. She blinked a few times in response to his words, looking down gently before letting out a sigh.<br/>
<br/>
<span class="fixed-color" style="color:#cc99ff">"As I was telling the guy before.. I was at work and as I was walking to my car, there was this guy. He was in this dirty alley and at first I thought he was going to jump me, but instead he started going off about some gate and how it would only open every millenia?"</span> She sounded confused, and rubbing her temple she was starting to think she was losing her mind. With an exasperated sigh she looked back up at him, taken by his beauty and not realizing that he was towering over her by at least three and a half feet. <span class="fixed-color" style="color:#cc99ff">"Wow... You're tall."</span> Blinking a few times she shook her head and looked away. <span class="fixed-color" style="color:#cc99ff">"A-Anyways, I went to it and saw this light.. And then I ended up here. I'm sure I got drugged or something, so if I could just have a car I'll be on my way. It's gross in here and i just wanna go home."</span> Her shivering was apparent and as she was talking she was rubbing her arms. <br/>
<br/>
There was something about him that made Amira want to look at him a bit longer and she felt her eyes narrow as she thought about how he made the scales seem so real. She watched him and it was so believable that she couldn't find any fault. Her eyes fell and she trembled, her hands shaking against her skin. Amira looked around her and as she took in her surroundings, this entire place was incredibly believable. Where on earth were they, and how did a building made entirely of stone still remain standing? Most of them were in ruins and in that instance she tilted her head. <span class="fixed-color" style="color:#cc99ff">"Where are we though? This place is so real.. I'd have thought a place like this would be ruins by now."</span> She chuckled gently but when she looked back at him there was no humor in his gaze. She stopped immediately and crossed her arms. <span class="fixed-color" style="color:#cc99ff">"What..? Something I said?"</span></span>
