"Ah, bonsoir mes amours!*" Came an awfully chipper voice from behind the group. Katherina smiled as she stepped up to the group, her heels clacking on the cobblestone road and the enormous rifle slung over her shoulder while two anxious looking men flanked her. "Awfully rowdy evening for a walk, non?" She continued with a devious smirk.<br/><br/>Snapping her fingers, she brought the two men to attention. "Arnaud, Gerard... Achetez-nous du temps, n'est-ce pas?"** She ordered. The two men tensed up, they knew all to well that they were essentially being ordered to give up their lives. But refusing such an order, especially from such a highly regarded noble was just as much suicide, but for the entire family. A noble's word could make or break an entire family after all... And even with the Succubus Strain tearing the world asunder, a fear for losing name was instilled with Altenburg's youth from the day they were born.<br/><br/>"Oui m'dame!" They both shouted, before turning around and heading back into town; swords drawn.<br/><br/>"Mm, that should buy us a few minutes..." Katherina cooed, turning her attention to the princess. "Ah, I dont think we've met, votre Altesse***." She said, doing a little curtsy. "But I suppose we should do formal introductions some other time. I could not help but overhear your plans to head for the forests and I have to throw in my vote as well... We don't know if there are any ships left. Besides, sans vouloir vous offenser****, you lot dont look like the types that know how to operate a ship... Not to mention that tin-can girl here would probably sink to the bottom of the bay if she had an accident~" Katherina said, tapping her knuckles against Sabriella's enormous suit of armor.<br/><br/><div class="ToggleTriggerAnchor bbCodeSpoilerContainer">
