Re: You Can Trust Me (Alexia)
The man showed great concern over Edeni, completely fooled by her act, to the point that he felt he had to reach out to comfort her, putting a hand on her shoulder, giving her a reassuring squeeze, "It's alright, Lady Nightingale will be able to protect you from those things, so that they will never be able to do that again." he assured her.
Meanwhile, Cassandra took to Edeni's act with a simple roll of her eyes, allowing the Imp to fool the foolish men, before stepping towards the guard who was attempting to 'comfort' the poor, distraught girl. "It's best that we no longer bring such a thing back into conversation," she told him sternly, "I don't want to be reminded of those creatures, anymore than she does."
The guard stood, nodding, "Yes mam, my deepest apologies."
Without confirming the man's apologies, Cassandra waved a hand at him, "Open the gate for us," she commanded him, before turning to Edeni with a small smile, holding her hand out to her, "Take my hand, Edeni, it's a big city, and a little girl such as yourself getting lost would be very dangerous."
