 Zireno spoke with the general about his plans for a counter. "It's not good enough!" Zireno shouted as he slammed his fist on stone wall atop the keep. "If we attack from the Castle when they retreat the brunt of their force will escape. Lets go to the war room. I can explain things better their. In the mean time rally my paladins." The general nodded and they walked down to the war room.

((Well I've looked all over the castle maps and wasn't able to find the war room so... Daine'll just wander on up to the top of the castle, maybe bump into Zireno on the way up.)) 
The moment Dainne had stepped out into the upper courtyard, Leon came to a halt before them. It was obvious he had anxious news to tell. "Your Highness! The Kingdom of Dakrim is under attack by a heavily armed force in unknown numbers. From what I've heard, they have already set fire to the first gate. Also, I have a theory that your heirloom and these events are intertwined. I..." Leon stopped mid-sentence as Dainne raised a hand. The prince looked out to the gates beyond, and then the horizon as best he could. It was true that he could see smoke in the distance, and if he focused hard enough, the stamp of hoof and clatter of weaponry could be heard in the still air.
"You may tell me your thoughts once this ordeal has been resolved Leon. For now I want to get a better look at this mysterious force. By their sound it would seem to be a great many men have come to do battle this day." Without waiting for a response, he turned on his heel and walked back into the castle. Without hesitation he passed through the cloakroom and began climbing the stairs of the north-east tower. As they climbed, Dainne accidentally bumped into two men, one seemingly a military man, and the other a young man not much older than himself who clearly was of high class. "My apologies Sirs, I meant not to disturb you. If you will excuse me, I am in a hurry, and you are in my way."
With that Dainne brushed by the men and hurried to the top. Once there he walked along the wall until he faced the west, and thus the city. At the far end he could see the fiery gate, and the dark mass of man and steel beyond. As he stared at this force, his eyes attempted to spy a standard to reveal the identity of the army, but the distance between them defeated him.
Sighing he looked back at his companions and shook his head. "My friends I must confess. I know not what to do. This is not my kingdom and as such I need the council of another. I need to find one of Royalty to advise me as to how I may help best." He turned back to the wall and stared out at the army, clearly deep in thought.

She nodded as he told her all this, and she was more then a little surprised at the fact that Jewlet of all people. Jewlet was supposed to be... Somewhere, anywhere else, but her stress was both lifted and heightened at his next words. The townspeople, her people, were safe for the moment, as were Grant and Jewlet. But still, the attackers were closer then she had thought. "Yes, you are very right Niro. We must continue to the music room and collect the Prince, and then continue on into a safe place. He should still be with his own guards." She paused for a moment. "If there a possibility of anybody sneaking into the castle through all this havoc? Anyone at all?" Even while she was saying these last words, the Queen was already making for the stairwell, with thoughts swirling still in her mind. Was it truly just a coincidence that the attack had arrived so soon after Prince Dainne? What about his sword, and his name? There was so much to consider, so much to think about, yet she couldn't get anything sorted out. Could he be trusted or not? She still had yet to find out. He was courteous and polite as a Prince should be, but there seemed to be an unknown factor to him.
The Queen wished she had at least a moment's peace.

Alexander
If what everyone was saying was true, Alexander couldn't just stay by Dainne's side; this was his chance to prove himself to the Kingdom of Dakrim. If he helped fight this battle, he could gain so many honors, maybe even a medal if he was lucky, though Alexander was being selfish. This Kingdom was his home now and no one would take it away from him just like that; he would defend it. Since Prince Dainne was far more occupied with finding the Royalty, Alexander had different plans in mind in order to help the castle’s defense. Seeming as Dainne ignored him from before, Alexander decided it was best to let it be that way and leave while Prince Dainne was busy with his companions. Alexander didn't go to the top of the wall with him, but instead rushed for the stairs to go back to Henna's quarters; he would need his weapons if he was gonig to fight.
Jeeves
The servant that was now named thanks to the letter Alexander received quite some time ago was busy preparing the servants of the castle for the battle ahead. Jeeves had some battle experience during his time as a servant for numerous people, since not all of them could be as sophisticated as Jeeves was that Jeeves had to learn how to use a weapon. The servants in the castle had very little experience compared to him, but he did his best to show them the proper way to fight even when they're using pitch forks or a hoes.
Grog and Sylvan
Grog could hear the commotion outside, even from the dungeon cell they were in. Sylvan could care less; she just wanted out of the dungeon and to go back home. No one had come down to question them yet and that made Grog uneasy since treatment of Tou like this could cause a incident between the Tou Kingdom and Dakrim Kingdom, so Grog needed to fix this before they rotted down here and to see what was happening on top. Grog sat up from the corner and Sylvan watched him with a sparkle in her eye and a smile; she could hardly contain herself.
"You're finally breaking us out?!"
Grog sighed and don’t say much else as he made his way to the cell door as slowly as his untreated wounds allowed him. None of the guards had treated the wounds he had received while fighting the Knights from the night of the glowing door incident. Sylvan tried her best over the time they were down in the dungeon to keep any infections from spreading, but her healing capabilities were quite limited without medical supplies. Grog stood in front of the door, took a deep breath, and used his right foot to send a kick at the door. The door fell outward and made a thud in the dungeon hall, now presenting a method of escape for Grog and Sylvan. With a large yawn that Grog failed to cover his mouth for, the two were off to try to find a way to the outside.

 [ armor but silver and without the cap/hat] Niro became a little uneasy at the thought of a sneak attack. But in reality, armies will do anything at war. "There's always a possibility. Though so far, there hasn't been any indications of that. The captain has station guards everywhere. If there was any, they would be delt with swiftness." Once they reached the music room, Niro open the door for the Queen. But to their surprise, the prince was nowhere to be found. "Huh?.....Where could he have gone?" Niro began to rub the back of his head. What was it with princes running off. Did they have trouble staying still or something? But that wasn't important right now. He needed to figure out where this new comer has gone. Then a thought popped into his head. "You don't think he went off to help fight, do you?"[That's fine falkot. As you know, I put in a music room. So it's cool. The map is for reference. Though I don't know why a castle won't have a war room or a music room. But I digress.]

 Jewlet dashed away as it got to be crowded in that area. 'Shoot. I'm stuck up here...' She said as she was not trapped. She went over and looked at the court yard below. 'Hm... no bad idea.' She turned around her eye started to twitch. It was getting way to crowded her her to take. She stepped up onto the wall and began along it to get to a door. Her power was used to keep her balanced as she did this stunt. She reached the door and jumped down and landed in front of it. She quickly entered the inside of the castle. She walked down the halls and checked upon the people taking shelter in its stone walls.

((Lol the very reason I want to speak with Zireno is because of his personality. Originally I wanted Dainne to be somewhat of the same way... but a higher power *coughRencough* magically made it otherwise. Besides... do you really think Zireno would let anyone get away with bumping him and then just walking away without letting Zi have his say?))

[do you have to mention that every time.-__- Also, you don't have to be a boyscout. Just polite that's all. Also around Zi, you can lose your temper if you want. About time someone bark at him for a change.^^]

((ok but you asked for it.))
After being bumped on his way down Zireno sent the general on ahead of him. "Such disgrace will not be tolerated." He said turning around and going after the unknown man. Pushing people out of his way Zi went back up the to the wall. Seeing the man who bumped into him earlier Zi walked over and tapped on the man's shoulder rather hard. "You there. How dare you be so rude as to not make way for royalty! Just because there is an attack coming does not mean you can put etiquette aside you cretin. I should put you on the front lines and see how long you last." Zireno said aggressively. "It is unfortunate that I have matters to attend to or I would teach you a lesson myself."

Jewlet relaxed after she felt they were okay. She made her away down the the first level to see if she could find the king, queen, or one of the princes. Right now at the time that seemed to be fruitile. She sighed, but countued to look. Then she spotted someone she knew. She dashed through the people bumping into some of them. "Mother! Are you okay?" She asked at she looked at her weary mother. "Where Richard?" She looked around. "He's right there." Her mother answered and pointed to a man helping a older lady. "Thank god your okay." She smiled and hug her mother. "I better get to work. Mother you be careful." "I will, Jewlet." Her mother said before Jewlet took off.'That's good that she's here.' Jewlet thought as she made her way through the crowd. Each time she bumped into someone she said. "Sorry, excuse me."

Grant was getting board as he waited for everyone to show so he decided to go looking for everyone. as he left the blue room he bumped into a familiar face. "Hey their cutie." Grant said with a smile. "I thought you were up on the castle walls." Grant slid his hand around Jewlet's waist as his ears perked up. "What brings you down here?" He asked.

Jewlet stopped as she heard a familiar voice. "Hello, Grant." She smiled and lightly laughed. "I was." She responded as she looked at him. "I'm looking for the royal family, but I found my mother and you instead." She shook her head lightly. "I guess they are taking to long?" She asked trying to keep herself from turning red in front of all these people.

"Yeah. I guess i can join you to try and find them. Keep you company and such." He looked over at the people around them and smiled. Looking back at Jewlet Grant had an mischievous look in his eye. In a loud voice Grant spoke. "Come on hunny. Lets go find the royal family." Once he finished he patted Jewlet in the butt and started walking down the hall.

Jewlet nodded her head. "Fine." She sighed and shook her head lightly. She tilted her head when she saw that look on Grants face. "What are you..." She now wished she could shrink. "Why did you... Hey!" She put her hands on her face to hide the redness. She looked between her fingers as she heard her mother giggling. 'Why can't I control myself!' She screamed in her head. 'Calm down.' She slowly began to follow after Grant.
