The next few days passed, they were like hell to his mind. Though once the group met up with the queen and he got some personal space around the woman to explain himself out of the watch of prying eyes she seemed to understand. Though what really sealed the conversation was the news that the current king never issues such a order and that his home was hers if they needed a place until where they use to call home was recovered. Her daughter Sinestra had passed the word that he was a traitor to their kind, though the queen seemed more forgiving then her daughter much like the light elf king. Though she wasn't going to take Rhyldrin's word for this until she heard it from the king's mouth himself.

for the time being the queen never bothered to make any arrangements to hand over leadership of her people to her daughter, this seemed to enrage the girl. Though it also meant that Rhyldrin wasn't bound to her.. for now at least. Instead she made preparations to ride out to the light elf capital to seek a audience with the King himself.

Even riding they still had a days ride before they got to the city gates, though granted they didn't use horses. instead they used a type of large cat this beast was also able to climb very well allowing for sneak attacks even from mounted units if required. The queen was there with only a handful of her soldiers, as well as her daughter and Rhyldrin. The light elf guards seemed tense, though it was easy to see from scout reports they had come with just this few, the main force was still 3 days into the forest and would never get here in time if the Queen herself were to start a fight in the middle of the city.

The Queen had yet to tell her daughter as to why they were headed here with so few troops. Rhyldrin saw Sinestra doing something reckless once she found out, really that was the main reason he agreed to come along. He had wanted to avoid coming back knowing that by now surely the King had made a move on Judith if not more then that. Plus he just couldn't look at her not knowing he couldn't embrace her again.

One of the guards left the front gate to go fetch the King and see what he orders were for the small group of dark elves at the city's entrance. The troops had heard rumors the two sides were going to try to get peace once more but none had confirmed this rumor. Until today that was.

"So why are we here anyway.. Mother" The Queen remained silent as she held her hand towards her daughter to get her to stop asking questions. "You'll know soon enough" She finally spoke as she waited for the guard to return.
