"I was told that I must fight. I was left in charge of a small portion of the attack, but after my group was killed I had fled in pursuit of the rest of my allies." Reika answered quietly. "I was trained under the experience of one of Lord Draco's friends. I had not chosen this for myself, had I chosen I never would have fought at all." As the questions continued, she answered them with slight hesitation, quiet and still on edge; however, she kept only to the truth, nothing more or less.... if she was thought to be lying, she feared she would be killed, or beaten like before under her old master's punishment. As others from the battle were brought in, she wished she could disappear. The glares she got as she told all she knew made her even more frightened. Most were stubborn and had sworn to say nothing if captured. They were obviously spiteful that she was betraying them and their masters by giving away her knowledge like this. A few Reika knew, slaves like her, but none of the others; she had been nothing more than a servant, she knew nothing of the higher ranks.<br/><br/>Alyxander came when he was called upon, recognizing many of the faces from his past. Most were allies he'd seen with Draco, others were obviously forced soldiers like Reika. However, none were vampires. Some knew of sorcery and black magic, but that was barely two or three. He noticed that the gaze of the guards were on him, as well as glares from the prisoners too. Alyx ignored the cruel expressions cast towards him though, despite knowing that the men were not under Lord Lyons; they could possibly be a threat to him, but he hoped there would be no reason to doubt him. Even if any of them tried to harm him, he wouldn't make any attempt to fight back; just avoid being hurt.<br/><br/>Once the confrontation was done, and Alyxander had left for his tent, Reika still remained with Kate and Lord Lyons. She wasn't really listening to their conversation, but at the mention that Alyx might be in danger she winced. She didn't want anything to happen to him... what was he to Kate anyways? It was obvious the two were close and quite fond of each other... but had they become partners? Were they just close friends, or more than that? Not that she dared ask that of either of them. "Please, Alyx, stay out of danger." She whispered under her breath.
