"It's fine. It's just..." Silver struggled for words that wouldn't seem too redundant.
"The nomad tribes have begun sending hostile threats and actions against our castle, our Kingdom. That is all, but I wish to resolve the threat before it becomes too large." Silver sighed and thought wistfully about the past.
"No one has made an attempt on my life, but believe me, I am well defended." Queen Silver gave the stranger a grim smile. "I must tell you already. I have told the others. Have you heard of the assassin, QuickSilver?" She waited a bit for the stranger to react, and while she did, she examined the newcomer. S/he seemed very capable and very calculating. A perfect bodyguard, if she needed one.

"I'm afraid not." Her face remained an unreadable mask, "You see, my race is well hidden from this world. We are not often in contact with many people on the outside." She had listened to the Queen's account of what had been going on, and her heart allowed but a small silver of sympathy to show in her golden eyes. Nodding, she continued by saying,
"Is this assassin a friend or foe?"
Of course...Syphora had many questions about the assassin already... Blinking, breaking from her thoughts, she noticed the Queen's gaze upon her become more...observant. Smiling under the face-cover of her jacket, she cocked her head to the side, sending tendrils of silver hair over her shoulder like a cascading waterfall,
"I am a woman, your highness, but I would ask of you again, politely, not to reveal that to anyone."

Red snapped out of her daydream when she felt a sort of pecking on her arm. when she turned around, it was her human sized crow Den! and a crystal? it didnt have the important hue so she set it aside to read later. she turned around to see another newcomer come in, this one seemed more of a knight of some sorts. well maybe i should go introduce myself she thought. she was about to go, but her leg was being dragged down by a scared, shaking Tsubaki! she wondered what had gotten into the little kitsune.

[[ im here]]
Red was going with or without Tsubaki strange how she was being to scared though. she began to walk away when Tsubaki ran to her saying "NOOO!!! DONT LEAVE ME ALONE!!!!" through some tears. she sighed and put the little kitsune cingig onto her back. the angel im was scared too, cowering with Tsubaki. her imps just followed and sat on Dens back as he walked with her. she went up to the new person. "um, sorry if im interrupting. im Red, swordswoman, wolf, controller of darkness. the two devil imps are Iki and Kon, The person sized crow is Yami-Denrei, demon crow and he also fights with blades. the two hiding behind me are the orphan kitsune Tsubaki and her angel imp Awai." she said, and breathed in deeply as she was running out of air.

cozork had watched Rose fall asleep, he was feeling a little tired himself but he felt he should atleast interact with people a little while longer. he lay his coat over Rose and kissed her forehead.
unsure of what to make of the newcomer, cozork looked in a questioning manner, they were clearly from one of the noble families, so there was little chance of them attacking him, but then he was a half demon, and he... or was it a she? looked quite human. there was a chance that they could see him as some kind of enemy.
he approached cautiously
"welcome! i am cozork, representitive of tribe diamond" ((sorry i left, am back for a while now though >.<))

Syphora's golden gaze turned away from the Queen and settled down on... well, she was sure that was a female. She made no comment as she introduced herself in a jumble of words. Briefly, she glanced upon the assortment of imps. Since she was not royalty, she merely raised her hand in respect and said,
"I do not believe you're interrupting completely, though, you don't look much like a swordsman." The statement was not meant to be impolite, merely an observation. Her voice trailed off and she set her eyes on the male. The tribe of Diamond, she thought to herself. His questioning gaze on her made her smile underneath her jacket,
"Allow me to introduce myself," She finally said, "I am Syphora, representative of the Sapphire Tribe." He was a demon, she then realized when her calculating amber eyes were done giving him her usual once-over. Of course she had met demons before... but, none that she had a chance to converse with. They usually came to speak with her father, or brothers, at least.
I'm sure this will be extremely interesting, this experience. If not, it sure as hell will be entertaining.

"well Syphora, welcome to the meeting. it is good to see you are not discomforted by my presence"
cozork spoke with a wry smile.
it was nice to be around people who didn't see him as a creature of the shadows like most humans did.
"i see you are a swordsman, may i see your blade?"
cozork was curious still as to whom this person was, but he figured that if they would trust him with their weapon then they were unlikely to try to cause him or Red harm.
that and he liked the craftsmanship on fine swords.

"ah its ok, i get that alot. but i am very well known amongst my people and some others for my speed and skill. im not the type to wear armor and such though, because i either dodge, protect using the weapons or darkness, or take the hit" she explained. she pointed over at the devil imps. "they're my weapons" she said. then she looked over at Den. "Den, please make yourself more presentable, this is royalty" she said to him. he let out a small caw before being wrapped in whisps of darkness, and when they cleared a black haired man with two or three necklaces, fingerless gloves (one that extended over his elbow and the other only about 3 inches longer than where the wrist was), black bands a bit lower than where his shoulders were, a black tank top and dark jeans. the most eye-catching feature though, were the black crow wings coming out from his back. "good day m'lady" he said, bowing respectfully.

"I have no reason to be in discomfort due to your presence, Cozork." She remembered to use his name, as he was polite and welcomed her. She did not like the idea of letting her blade in the hands of someone else...but of course, it was not her only weapon hiding upon her body. Reaching behind her, she slipped the naginata-like staff off of the metal clasps that held it in place on her back. It came free with a small 'click' and she twirled it like a baton for a moment, its ribbon swishing about. One part of her, the one that made her a proud warrior to wield such a beautiful weapon, couldn't resist showing off. It was not indeed a naginata, but an ancient and well-crafted quandao that belonged to her father's first wife - her mother.
A look of irritation then crossed her face and she turned back to Red,
"Please," She said as she held the weapon within her hands, "I would like not to be treated as though I were above any rank. I am merely a stand-in of the head Lord in the tribe of Sapphire, nothing more. Of course, if it were meant to the Queen...That is a different matter.." Her features remained unreadable when the crow transformed. The girl would be formidable should she ever become angry with her, but she was more interested in the demon-male from the Diamond tribe. He, of course, would probably prove to be more dangerous. Demons were harder to kill, depending on their skill and level. Were all the residents of that tribe demons? She sincerely hoped not.
Holding out her quandao to Cozork, her sleeves rose up, revealing scars trailing up into them. Of course, they were old and no longer fresh. Used to them, she made no mind to cover them up. Looking up at him with a piercing gaze, Sy murmured, "Handle it with care, it is my most precious possession."

[[sorry im such a grammer nazi, but my crow transformed not one of the imps >.<]]
"oh thank goodness and sorry. im so used to setting my formalities up for kings and queens and such since i want to set a good image of my people" she explained. at the sight of the weapon, Tsubaki (the little kitsune) got really pale and crawled over to where Den was, hiding out of sight behind one of his wings. "i forgot to say what tribe im representing. Red from the Moon's Spirit tribe, pleasure to meet you" she said, holding her hand out for a handshake

//You're not a grammar nazi, it's merely the color of the red hurting my eyes...I got a little confused. I knew something was wrong where I wrote imp and realized he had crow-like wings. I edited.//
