He spent the majority of the next few days avoiding scouts and trying to track the Queen's daughters location. He finally did hear word of where she was at by a conversation being held by a few scouts in a mini encampment. She wasn't far from here... he didn't want to do this but he had to he kept telling himself he had to for her. She'd never be able to live safely unless he did this.

He kept to the trees mostly staying off the ground when at all possible, it prevented his detection as he waited for the sun to start rising once more. It'd be safer to get to the future queen then. He had a few hours of waiting to do at the least. Though he hardly had his mind in this and he had been detected a few hours ago and the woman was well aware of him being near her and her group.
Once daybreak was visible through the trees he quickly jumped down from his perch only to be greeted with two spears towards his neck. "tsk..." His ears went back, this wasn't what he had planned. The two standing before him seemed to grin at the same time "She wants to speak with you... " He was surprised he wasn't called traitor in truth, maybe she hadn't spread that word just yet.

Not that he had a choice but he stood slowly and let them take him to her. Once they reached where she was sitting they pushed him forward before forcing him to get down on his knees. "My my my... to what do I owe this little pleasure. To have Rhyldrin of all people show himself to me and my squad.. " She grinned evilly as she spoke her words escaped her lips like ice.

He didn't want to speak at first but after a few moments she barked at him to speak. "I came back to reconsider your offer from before" He forced himself to say as the two guards were still holding him down forcing him to pretty much grovel at her feet. If he wasn't trying to keep the peace he'd show these two that these blades he carried were hardly for show.

She seemed to look him over before laughing and stepping down from where she had been sitting. "OH really? Whats your motive... " She questioned him as she walked towards him and then making a few circles around him and the two guards like a hawk watching pray. "You've never changed your mind before... or did you figure out that your life is worthless and you'll never be anyone without my help" She said in the same icy tone as she stopped in front of him.

'bitch.. i should kill you and your men here' He thought but bit his tongue. "Not that it matters but I need to speak with the Queen, but I figured giving you my freedom was a fair enough trade for that" He wasn't going to toy with giving her some excuse she wasn't the type to fall for it anyway.

"So I see.. "She seemed to think about it a little before she shooed the guards off and grabbed him by his shirt collar. "If you betray your word you'll find yourself dead somewhere or worse I promise you that..." She hissed at him before letting him go. "Also I can't approve of your request without my mother's word on the matter.. so you'll get your audience with her" She spoke again and waved a hand towards him saying she was done with him. "you'll have to wait though she'll be to our current location in a few more days." She smirked a bit she was curious what Rhyldrin was planning, he wanted anything to do with her or the Queen now all of a sudden he asked for both in the same breath.

He bowed his head a little before forcing the next few words out of his mouth. "I shall stay around the camp till them.. mistress" He wanted to cut his own tongue off with the words. 'Just a little longer then everything will be settled' After she excused him he walked off and towards a tree just outside of the encampment as he punched it with his full force. "Damn..." he hissed under his breath. Well it was done pretty much his fate was sealed now but it was for the best.. right.

He sighed afterwards and turned to lean his back against the tree before moving to sit. 'She'll be safe now the elven wars should be no more after I pass the message along..'
