The guard grinned to herself, wide and gleeful enough to put any cheshire cat to shame as she came to know the properties of the beautiful wedding band now adorning her ring finger, the symbolic token connecting her to the elf princess as long as she was to wear it. Plans for making her former mistress into her own little pleasure doll danced through her head as she replaced her heavy glove, regained her composure and used her blade to sever the bonds the cultists had tied her with, before slowly removing the bag from her head so the elf may lay eyes upon her and she could begin her long game.<br/><br/>"Your serene highness," Lycoris said, pantingas though out of breath as she addressed the princess, activating the ring's power to raise Alinia's arousal once she came into the royal's field of vision, "please forgive your humble servant for dropping you as I did, I fear that my strength finally gave out after carrying you for so long after liberating you from those brigands. I trust you are alright after your ordeal?"<br/>
