Introduction/Disclaimer:

This is a private rp between myself and J-bling z1. You will not be allowed to post unless you get permission from myself and J-bling z1. However, if you wished to reach out to either of us you can private message.

"The art of war teaches us to rely not on the likelihood of the enemy's not coming, but on our own readiness to receive him; not on the chance of his not attacking, but rather on the fact that we have made our position unassailable."

 

[HopelessQueen]

Plot:

Phoxuria and Zale had been fighting for years. How it first started no one knows at all. Both sides had suffered heavy casualties from the many battles they had fought. The king and queen from both kingdoms had decide to cease fire to sign a treaty to have the daughter from Phoxuria and the son from Zale marry each other. However, once the princess and prince find out they wish never to marry one another. In order to prepare them for the upcoming union they force the two to meet at neutral ground to make them get along and hope for them to fall in love.

Absalon is a very passionate individual when it comes to something he cares about.He is also well spoken and honest.He will not always tell you something you wish to hear,rather what needs to be addressed,due to him feeling the need to show another enough respect to do so.With his friends he acts foolish from time to time just to have a laugh or two,but is very well mannered in actuality.

Bio
Being the Prince of Zale,only son to King Drell and Queen Marianne,he was born with great luxuries,he took advantage of such by training his body and mind to live up to the model knight.He would be instructed by the head of the royal guard and would go out on any expedition his parents would allow,but never to fight the kingdom's sworn enemy;Phoxuria.Now with the cease fire,his parents have informed him that he is to meet the princess of Phoxuria on third party land for what he could only describe as "socializing".Other than that completely vague explanation he knows nothing more of his reason for the travel to meet the princess and has managed to bring along his most trusted butler and maid,whom he has always had under his service.

Absalon Fice

It was midday,the sun beaming down with a not too pleasant,but not smoldering level of heat,the wind keeping the lands cool as the young Prince Absalon, with the company of the escort of this land and his two loyal servants Blake and Tiffany.The creaking of the wheels on a beaten path echoed slightly as nature's birds were singing. Absalon was growing restless after not being given any context to his journey other than it being for social purposes."Blake,Tiffany,for what reason are we making this trip to this land I do not even know the name of,I know my father must have told you two." The prince said. "Now young master,we are as ill-informed as you are,our journey is to meet in this land ,of which I do not even know then name of,and for you to act as the representative you were born to be." The butler replied.

"I agree m'lord,we must have patience,what would Commander Gallows tell you,I'm sure you've heard all his words of wisdom by now," said the small,white haired maid. "My teacher is not here so it is not as authentic Tiffany,even a soldier is informed of his duties." "He'd say that the time for questioning is not now,and you watch your tone,you are twenty-one years of age now,but I will still place you over my knee as if you were a toddler again," Tiffany snapped and was met with an apology from the prince.All the squeaking and creaking from the tires came to an end as they arrived at the entrance to a city,it had looked as if it had not been touched by time and the warm smiles of the people were a sight for sore eyes.They were escorted further into a city and Absalon to a large castle where he was met with food and drink,then brought to a large room,where the owner of the property was waiting for him and explained that a third party was on the way

Sophia Darrington



Sophia was on horseback with a sour expression across her lips. Having her red locks cascading down her back and her emerald eyes gazing upon the road in front of her. Already she was hating the fact she would be meeting her enemy and the man she would have to wed eventually. If Zale would just give up then this wouldn’t even happen. “Princess if you scowl too much he may not find you attractive…” one of the men spoke to her on her side. The thought of the Prince even liking her at all was sickening to herself. “I hope he does. I refuse to acknowledge that brute.” She spoke bitterly.

Even now she was looking at the sky knowing that this would probably be the last time she would be alone. She had brought with her the man that had protected her from various threats and a woman that had taught her the way of politics of her kingdom. If all went well then this kingdom would profit on being the first to lend a hand in the union of the two kingdoms becoming one.

When being asked to hand over all her weapons before heading to the dreadful place. The girl next to her held a smile that was unlike the soul displeasure look she on her face. “Lady Sophia… Try to be more… A pleasure to be around.” She began to say. That had earned her the look of death knowing it couldn’t be good.

She had made her way to the castle inside of the town as her worries continued to grow. Getting to the large room seeing that was where she was brought before another group waiting for an explanation.

Absalon Fice

Absalon had been sitting in the room for exactly twelve minutes and twenty-two seconds before the silence and eye contact with the man in the room began to worry and frustrate him. The man spoke only a little,and that was when he had welcomed him to sit. Absalon sent his servants off to figure out the situation with his living arrangements while he spent his time here. "Well,it has certainly been a good journey, and an even greater meeting,but I do believe if I wanted to stare at someone in silence, I would have looked in a mirror,so I bid you good day sir," Absalon stated as he stood. "My compliments to your chef on the beef, it was nice and juicy," Absalon ended before he turned to move and then saw the doors open.

He saw the woman and her servants walk through the door,who could this be....was this...THE PRINCESS OF PHOXURIA!!??!! Saying a thousand thoughts ran through Absalon's mind at once would be an understatement. Did the enemy have the audacity to make an attempt for his life at a social gathering on third party lands? Or was this meeting to form some sort of treaty for their lands? All these things he thought,the most ridiculous to run through his mind was that this would be a day filled with regular pleasantries. Absalon kept calm and did not show any emotion upon his face.

"Well, well, well, well, do my eyes deceive me? Or perhaps I am dreaming, the Princess of Phoxuria, I am charmed," he said and took a bow. "Is this a more diplomatic way of your unconditional surrender? As my master says, 'There is no dishoner in admitting defeat, so long as you can do so gracefully.' Absalon said with an ear to ear grin on his face."Or am I not destined to be so lucky on this sunny day?"

Sophia Darrington



Already knowing that she had to come to this kingdom to marry the Prince of Zale despite how much she protested it. She had no idea how this meeting would go. When they lead her through the castle she already could feel that there was something wrong or fishy how they were going about for the two to meet. Now through the doors her eyes laid upon the Prince as hatred was running throughout her body on how much she had wanted to kill him rather than be here to talk to him.

Listening to him as her brushed hair behind her ear showing a lack of interest, "I'm sure you are." she muttered. She watched him take a bow before she glanced up to Henry her male knight next to her. It was almost as if she was asking permission for his sword to run the prince through with. She held her hands together getting her silent decline since she had her weapons taken from her before meeting the prince. She scoffed that he thought this was her surrender, "Unfortunately the gods do not smile upon you Prince of Zale. If I was surrendering I would have died before that happened. My parents and your parents have been speaking of a union between us as a treaty to laid down arms on both sides." she spoke to him.

Absalon Fice

Absalon listened to what the woman had to tell him and gave her a look that would be the equivalent of him saying 'Excuse me?' in shock when he heard that they were there to become newlyweds. The thought absolutely blundered him for a second before he looked at the woman. "Well it wouldn't be very chivalrous of me to say ma'am that you are a pretty woman and I am sure you would make a great wife and bear strong children,but sadly I do not believe that I am the one for you," he admitted to the young woman." With this new information in the light now I also see that I should've known better than to agree to come to this undisclosed location for 'socializing' as my father so deceptively put.Ma'am I apologize for my parents wasting your time and resources on such a trip,but I feel as though I have to be honest with you when I say I do not believe this will work," Absalon said before his servants arrived to give him a letter.

He opened the letter,it was actually three pages and the stamp from his kingdom,he knew his father's court stamp anywhere. His eyes could be seen slowly moving across the paper as he held it at first with one hand,looking up at her and her party for a second and then holding the pieces with both hands and reading at a medium pace before cycling to the next page. He read this one a little faster and made another surprised face with his eyebrows raised. About halfway through the second page he started to dart his eyes across the paper before reaching the end and looking up while cycling to the final page and saying, "Just a moment please this is quite a bit to read." His eyes still darting as he read only to look up, but this time at his servants and back down to the paper he had brought closer to his face and leaned in a little as to make sure he read the last parts of the letter correctly.

He sighed before crumpling up the paper and tossing it in the fireplace of the room from where he stood and mumbled something inaudible to everyone else. "Well it seems I have a change of heart, my name is Absalon Fice, my apologies for not introducing myself upon your arrival properly, and as you know I am the Prince of Zale. I know you are the princess, but what may I ask is your name?"

Sophia Darrington



Sophia had clearly noticed the look as if she was in shock. If she truly wanted to marry him she would have been happier than what she was at this moment. With her sour expression across her face as she crossed her arms against her chest. What came next caused her eyes to roll when he spoke about how she was pretty and would bear strong children. "Nor do I want to be. I believe you are not understanding what I am telling you. I came here because my parents forced me to meet you." she spoke to him. Right now she would rather be anywhere else than here with the Prince of her sworn enemy country unless she was killing him.

Waiting for a moment as he read over the letter one of his servants had handed to him. When he had finished the letter it seemed he had been upset at the contents of it as he tossed it into the fireplace. Hearing he had a change of heart in believing her as it seemed they were both upset with the outcome. She took in a deep breath to relax the tension in her shoulders. "I am Sophia Darrington, Princess of Phoxuria. Pleasure to meet you." she spoke before curtseying to him even though she would ran run him through with a weapon.

Absalon Fice

Absalon scoffed at the final words in her self introduction."Yes I'm sure it is," Absalon said to her and then let out a sigh before rubbing his eyes and then his temple before his butler cleared his throat before speaking."Please forgive the young master's rhetoric and composure,we are weary from our travels, as I am sure you and your accompanying party must be. I am Blake Sloo," he said and bowed."And this is Tiffany Yeax," he added before she took a curtsy. Absalon took his hand away from his face and looked at the man in armor for a second,then back to Sophia.

"This is true,we have come here and made introductions and I am sure that there must be something planned for the two of us later this evening,so how about until we come into that information,we retire to our living arrangements while we are here to get settled in nicely." Absalon suggested,he was starting to be a little nicer,it would be best if they were to be married so that this woman wouldn't slit his throat or mutilate him in his sleep,should they be wed at least.He did have to admit that the woman looked very pretty to say that this was his enemy,but he wouldn't say that aloud. This whole ordeal was more than strange to him,especially for his parents to send him on a trip without any knowledge whatsoever. They probably knew that it would be best not to tell him due to the possibility of him protesting it and simply not going,completely defying his parent's will.

Sophia Darrington



Sophia knew that trying to be pleasant was hard enough because of the hatred running through her body for the prince. Coming back up she had released the part of her dress in her hands. Hearing the butler not blaming them since she was tired from traveling to meet her husband when they would get married. “This is Oliver Cohen and Marianna Mctavish.” she spoke introducing her knight and maid that had accompanied her. She looked to Oliver wanting to get her his thoughts on what to do.

For once Sophia had agreed wanting to rest up for tonight knowing there was going to be something planned. “Sounds like a lovely idea.” She spoke softly. Her eyes went to the man in front of her taking in his eyes and his other feature seeing he was attractive but it did not help she was still angry for being married off to the enemy. With that Sophia and her companions went to go to her living arrangements to rest before she would have to meet with Prince Absalon later that night.

"Nice to meet you all," the maid and butler said in unison.Alibaster looked at her maid and her knight. "Nice to meet you," the young prince said actually sounding as if he were actually showing respect."I believe that until we have to meet later this evening,it would be best if we bid you adieu," Absalon said before he left with his servants and to whatever living arrangements he was to have for his time here.Once he got to his room he started to unpack his more personal items that he did not allow his servants to do while he awaited the meeting.He took his sword out and placed it beside his bed so that it would be within reach if he found himself in a bad situation.

The room was marvelous to someone not of royal blood,but to him it was still pretty nice and he had made sure that even his servants had rooms close to him and that they were nice since they had been around him since he was a toddler. Absalon had then went to bathe himself and when he returned to his bedroom he would see a note slid under the door. He broke the seal and read the message for him. "Dear Prince Absalon,your dinner will be where the directions lead,formal dress is most definitely suggested,as you will be there with Princess Sophia." Absalon donned his usual attire for a more prestigious event with his medals on his jacket's chest and the golden braided material to indicate some of his excellence in battle.He would follow the directions and arrive at a large hall where he was shown inside as the onlookers were held back by some of the security measures.He had not brought any weapon himself as a show of respect.

He did however bring a bouquet of white roses for Sophia,although she was his enemy he would honestly treat this as if it were a date. He had been seated by a hostess and would wait on his date since he had arrived about twenty minutes early,being extra careful not to be tardy.

“Nice to meet you as well,” the maid and knight spoke together. Sophia smiled to the maid and the butler even though it was Alibaster that she wasn’t thrilled being stuck with. With that she had taken her leave after the prince had spoken wanting to settle in for the night. She had gone to the room to sit down on the bed to sigh deeply. Having her freedom gone had been weighting on her the entire time she had been traveling, part of her wished she could escape from her fate. She closed her eyes as her maid was working on unpacking and trying the right dress for Sophia.

After taking a bath to wash off the dirt to make herself look presentable to the prince. She could hear her mother’s words in how she needed to sway this man to like her since she would be stuck with him until one of them would pass away. With the help Marianna she was dressed in a light blue sleeved dress. Her red at contrasted the dress while the dress showed off more of her curves than what she was wearing before when she met the prince. She had the right touch of jewelry having know what to wear for formal occasions from the parties. Even now she was thinking on the nickname she had been called for keeping her heart locked away from those that tried to get inside.

Making her way to the hall where she had been told where she would meet the prince. What she hadn’t realized that the prince would be waiting for her. Being walked by the hostess to the prince told how he had been waiting already for her.
