Joshua sat on the back porch of his small home, the old wooden steps creaking softly under his weight. He held his bow in his lap, the dark oak smooth against his fingers. His hands worked the small blade of his knife through the bow, sketching small intricate designs into it. It had only been a few weeks since he'd left his kingdom. He was still a prince, yes, but...he didn't fancy the idea of becoming King. His mother had not taken kindly to his departure, but his brother seemed to enjoy the fact that he would now be expected to take over the duties of their late father and king. Verus was a small kingdom and not extremely well known by the others, but it was strong. The villages surrounding it were at peace, and the royals often made journeys to each one to check on the people and buy their things. Joshua had traveled further beyond those villages, deciding to stay in Arkala. It was near another kingdom, one bigger than his own. He didn't know much about it at all other than the fact that it was home to a beautiful young woman, the princess. He knew she had been set to marry, but apparently had refused another man's offer. He knew nothing else about her. Pleased with his work, he hooked the small blade back onto his belt and stood, flinging the bow across his back. Heading to the stables, he decided to go on a ride through the village and maybe the outskirts of the kingdom. He climbed atop his horse, patting her neck gently before nudging her forward. She led him out of the stables and into the streets of the village, her hooves clopping softly on the cobblestone streets. |

" Alright alright, I'll get you somethin to eat, Simon. Making me do everything just because Im the royal princess of this area.. So rude. Some day you will have to go outside yourself. You may like it." SHe chuckled, pecking his cheek,before grabbing her black cloak and asmall gift from her mother. A medium sized blade before heading out the door towards the stables to tack up her steed, Finch. A 5 year old stallion. = The tack was average for when going into town. Black side saddle, with a very small insignia of her palace. The saddle pad was suprely silver. The bridle on the other hand, was a red and gold eventing one. = Once she tacked Finch up , she hopped onto his back and trotted towards the village " Maybe something will happen today, FInch... its been a very long time since I have been into towan to see the little ones and the townsfolk." she said humming along the quiet yet long 4 mile road. Hearing the birds fly around them, singing their beautiful songs. Once she got there, she headed straight for the bakery on the left hand side. Watching as everyone stopped to let her through. " good morning, Everyone. Glad to see you. Yes I see you too Sam. Dont worry, I'll let you ride Finch once im done with my errends." = Once she reached the bakery, she hopped off Finch, put the rains in her right hand and began to look at all the frshly baked items. Wondering if, when and who she may meet one day. |

Joshua softly played with his horse's mane as they walked slowly down the streets. His gaze scanned over the marketplace, wondering if he should stop for anything today. Suddenly, the peace was disturbed by loud yowling, which was followed immediatey by a large orange tom cat racing through the middle of the street, a large brown dog chasing after it and barking. The cat darted beneath Commander's hooves, causing the large stallion to spook and rear. Joshua grasped into his black mane, gripping for something to control him since he was riding nearly tackless. The black stallion's hooves landed to the ground, and proceeded to nervously dance backwards, his ears flicked forward and his eyes wide and gazing after the dog and cat. "Easy boy," Joshua cooed, rubbing and patting his neck soothingly. "Easy." The sound of an excited child's voice reached Joshua's ears, and he turned to see one excitedly speaking to a young woman. He couldn't see her face, but she had beautiful black hair. After a moment, he watched her move down towards the bakery. After a few moments spent calming Commander, he led him towards the bakery. He slid off, approaching the young woman. "Hello," He said friendily. "Do you mind if I ask your name? I'm rather new to this area, and I don't know anyone." |

Adalee King was just finished with buying her brothers food when she heared a loud neigh from behind her, spooking her a little bit. But the voice that came after was rather... confused, gentle and disoriented at the same time. "No one ever askes for my na-" she paused before clearing her throat and ever so slowly turned her back to the baker so that she knew who she was speaking to. = Her eyes glanced at the stallion and then looked back at the floor , starting at the man's boots, up his legs ad then to his face. Her cloak still around her so her eyes and face were still somewhat hidden, but her voice was all anyone needed. At least for now. = " You have a very gorgeous stallion there." Adalee spoke, letting go of her own reins, knowing that Finch wouldnt run off. The princess's warm smooth hand touched the stallions nose before taking it away and finally answering the gentlemans question " My name is Adallee, I can tell you're new here because of the spook. We have a few cats and dogs running free around here.. I specifically told the governor to get rid of them... but he wont listen" = Her green-ish eyes looked up at him " I can show you around if you'd like. I'm here on a few errands. You culd easy get lost in all this fuss around Arkala. Hard to get used to, but easy to make friends....but......" she paused rather long " make friends with the wrong sort, and you could be in very big trouble. I'll make it worth your time and be generous enough to show you everything. " Ive been here long enough to know every single person in Arkala since I was a little girl.' = She the jumped back onto Finch's back and fixed her cloak "Is there anywhere specific you are headed?" |

She complimented Commander, and he reached up to pat the stallion's neck. "Thank you," he said. "His name is Commander. He's a young one, only six years old. But he's done fairly well so far." Adalee...a beautiful name. Realization seemed to strike him all at once as she began telling him about the cats and dogs and the governor.. "Oh my deepest apologies, my Lady!" He bent slightly forward for a brief moment in a polite bow. "Princess Adalee, how could I have not seen?" He extended his hand forward in an invitation for her if she wished to do so. "My name is Joshua Beckett, youngest Prince of Verus." He smiled gently as she offered to show him around. "That would be lovely," he said kindly. "I've moved here. For how long I cannot say, but it's a nice village and I'd love to get to know it more." He listened to her words carefully, understanding. Anywhere you could make friends, and anywhere you could make enemies. "Thank you for your offer," he said, climbing back up onto Commander's back. "I have no where specific in mind, really. I just wanted to get out and enjoy the morning." He smiled at her, his brown hair shimmering russet in the morning sun. "Is there anywhere you particularly like to go?" |

Adelee smiled but then stopped him from bowing to her in public. That is not nessisary. Really" Her green eyes stayed on on the stallion as she spoke. Then thought it rudr and moved her orbs towards him. Eye to eye. Hmm Could this be him? Dont start falling for him too early. You will loose your train of thought and what your duties are.
= "Im not close to the Govenor, you see. I just keep tabs on issues that need to be resolved. Like the feral animals." Adelle waited for him to get on his stallion and Finch put his ears bacl. Clearly not happy with the meet up. THe princess patted his neck and hushed him in a soothing Gaelic voice. " Finch isnt used to other horses." When the man asked her the question if here was anywhere she particularly liked to go, she nodded " As a matter of fact, yes, there is. WOuld yu like to see one of them after I finish my errands for my brother?" The commotion around them only got louder as the children of the village surrounded her " Whoa there, little ones. One at a time. " The Princess hopped of Finch's back and took off the saddle so that it was easier to get a little rid on the steeds warm back " Now... who would like to go first?" = He laughter filled the outdoors, having her sweet time with the kids. Forgetting about the prince for the whole time. But as it neared the half hour mark, she excused herself so she could have time with the man. "As you can tell, im very popular with the kids. Thay always want a ride on Finch" = Once she finished with her errands, she said she had to drop them off at the palace. " I'll be right back. While you wait, have a look around an I'll find you when I come back." And with that, Adelee put the saddle back on and spurred her steed into a trot and headed back to the palace. The cloak fallong back agaist her back, her long raven black hair flowing in the breeze. |

Joshua watched as the kids began to swarm them, excited to be with the princess. He watched in silence, but never once grew impatient or angry. He was impressed by her patience and willingness to interact with the villagers, especially the children. Things were so different here compared to Verus. Everyone seemed to enjoy the company of one another. Where he was from, he almost always felt cut off from the existence of anyone outside of the palace. He'd grown up sheltered from the villagers and hadn't been allowed to interact with them at all during visits. It was freeing to be here now, watching the lively interactions between a royal and common-folk. Since moving away, he was beginning to forget that he was still a prince. He enjoyed not having to worry about looking or acting a certain way all of the time, not having to worry about who to marry and how to rule. Those were his brothers problems now, and he knew he would like it much better than he would have himself. As Adalee spoke to him once more, he nodded, smiling kindly. "You're very good with the kids," he commented. "No wonder they like you." She told him that he could explore the village if he wished, and that she would find him when she was finished with her errands. "Thank you kindly," he said to her, dipping his head in a slight nod of respect. "I look forward to seeing you." He watched as she spurred Finch forward, walking away. After a few small moments, he picked a direction and gently nudged Commander forward. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Some time had passed since last meeting with Adalee, and Joshua now stood outside of a small bookstore. He'd left Commander tied to a horse post a few buildings down. After finishing up a polite conversation with a young woman, he entered the store. He browsed the shelves, running his thumb along some of the books. |
