Valera swore her heart stopped beating when KayVenn walked up to her and took her hand. His words were soft and flowing like a wonderful calm spring. Damn it! The fire in Valera was burning bright, and this fire was not normal..... she didn't want to think about what fire was burning in her. She did her utmost to not let her power seep through her and into anyone nearby. She wasn't sure how well she did.<br/><br/>"It is my pleasure Lord KayVenn."<br/><br/>Valera kept the formalities, she didn't want everyone around spreading rumors that she had been tongue tied and forgot herself.<br/><br/>"I was glad for the invitation no matter the circumstances. Anything to break up the routine."<br/><br/>Valera smiled warmly taking in KayVenn's appearance. His brown hair and muscular body. THough his eyes drew her in, she felt as if she could swim in them. His face so calm but able to show the fierceness of a raging sea. His calm control of everything was fiercely attractive to Valera. Though his physical appearance was a bonus it was not what had drawn Valera in.... it was his calming presence, the way he thought and lived. The way he had become a lord was grand and had touched Valera. Valera recalled when she had been made the Lady of fire. It was a time of great unrest, goblins flooded the land and the army grew weaker every day. Spies had brought information of a weakness int eh goblin army. Only the town in which Valera was in was close enough to attack in time. Not many people were there and those that were had been battle weary for a long time. Valera had spoken up and kindled a fire in every man and woman there to stand and fight for their country. She herself led the attack into the goblin camp. It was a suicide mission but the people fought with such might due to the words of Valera, burning with a fire. Against all odds they had defeated the group and dealt a lethal blow to the goblins. Then the Over Lord met her and was so impressed by her spirit and fire he gave her this land to rule.
