Vale hesitantly took the offered arm on their journey outside, at the site of the palanquin 'she' was a little bewildered at the contraption....but none the less 'Vella' accepted prince Torquil's hand once again to help 'her' up into the palanquin. The fiery haired 'princess' had kept 'her' face neutral during all this as best 'she' could.

'Vella's one green eyes looked towards the horse that the prince mounted with ease and part of Vale inside felt envious...since the transformation Vale had not been allowed to even groom his own horse, Ava, and the grey mare was back in his home kingdom. Quickly pushing the feeling away and schooling her face, 'Vella' mentally prepared 'herself' for this little trip.

When the men hoisted this thing up onto their shoulder 'Vella' almost yelped because it felt so weird, she discretely garbed the hand of the closest lady in waiting who just smiled calmly and squeezed 'Vella's' hand back.

When they had traveled by carriage from Storkall to this place Vale had barely looked out the windows, to far in his inner turmoil to enjoy the beauty of another kingdom. Now it was like he was seeing this place for the first time, the buildings, the people and the colors where all new to the fire haired 'princess'. Even the smell's from the baker shops where new, more sweet and less hardy then the baker shops in Storkall.

'Vella' wasn't to sure if she was to wave at passer's by or not,
'She' couldn't help but smile at a few children who were pointing and waving enthusiastically. A pair of boys that they passed reminded Vale of his little brother and himself...as one of the boys had the smaller one on his shoulders. It sent a small stab of homesickness through the 'princess'.
