Word would reach her when dignitaries started to arrive in which she sat in silence nerves overcoming her at the moment, 'What if they don't respect me? After all...I haven't been coronated yet...I am but a child in an adults seat...', she thought but narrowed her eyes and shook her head. 'No...I am this land's ruler, I will make them respect me and treat me as an equal...I have to. I can't be someone easily conquered', determination in her eyes as the first was announced, the loud horns and booming voice of the man at the door proclaiming the first arrival break all thoughts. Quickly she sat in attention baring a stoic expression, the first to arrive was the king of Riptide, and elder man by the name of Cyrus. A tall figure who presence you could not ignore even if you wanted. When he removed his helmet and gave her greetings the young princess would smile and nod. "Good day Lord Cyrus, I hope you had safe travels", she spoke onto him not long had she said this did the horns yet boom again. And thus entered another king, the lord of Seca, Olaf. She had remembered her father speaking of Olaf, they had fought in battles together, she remembered that her father had told her that he might have seemed scary but so long as you showed real bravery and courage then he'd respect you all the same.<br/><br/>Veronica couldn't help but give a slight solemn expression in the mention of her father but she was quick to remove it as soon as she could upon addressing him. "I thank you Lord Olaf, my father had spoken highly of your bravery and honor, I hope to see such legends before my eyes as well as live up to your expectations. I will do my best in his stead". She smiled kindly but also with a certain aura about her, one that ensured she'd keep that promise, so far the meeting was going well, she hoped it would for all of them.
