The king was stunned at the woman's reaction though he knew that not all Light Elves and Dark Elves would agree with the idea of peace. "I won't judge you upon the actions of another," he said to the queen accepting her apology. He was glad that Rhyldrin had reached her in time, the last thing that he needed to happen now was bloodshed. Though if Rhyldrin had not reached her he would have dealt with her even if she struck him first. The crowd below seemed tense after what had happened. Bryon looked over the crowd and managed a smile. "What you saw does not change anything. Peace still stands between us and the Dark Elves as it was announced." he saw the uneasiness from his people. "Don't forget that not all of them are like that. Just as we are not all the same." he felt that he needed to remind them of this. He didn't want them to doubt his decisions. A king needed his people's trust and love.

Judith took Vrine in her hand and held him to her chest closely. At first she too didn't realise what was going on. It had happened so suddenly, when she saw Rhyldrin was hurt she placed Vrine on her shoulder and went to him immediately. I don't care if they see, she thought to herself. She could no longer be called a traitor for caring for another who was not like her. Besides she didn't think that a majority of her fellow people would turn their backs on her now, they seemed thrilled when the king announced that the war was ending. Still didn't mean that they would tolerate the sight of a Light Elf with a Dark Elf, but she was hopeful. Judith gently brought her hand to the one he held on his wound. "Rhyldrin," she whispered to him. "You're such a brave man." Vrine remained perched on her shoulder, he knew this wasn't the time to ask for attention. Though he did let out a high pitch whine.

Bryon took notice that Judith was being kind to Rhyldrin. It didn't irritate him though, maybe they could be a good influence for his people. He wondered what would become of the two now that there was peace but he doubted that anything would happen. Bryon brought his attention back to his people and smiled. "Tonight we will celebrate!" he said, the villagers cheered. He looked at the queen and took her hand in his, he placed a kiss on her hand gently. "Will you and your men join us in celebration?" he asked her.
