[The video feed shows that someone's cranky and impatient today.

Agrias sits by the vine, sighing, face resting on a gloved hand and tapping the other on her knee, eyes narrowed a bit. When she speaks, she sounds pretty annoyed.]

I have but a simple inquiry for the denizens of the gardens. Does it usually take this long for an enemy to make themselves known to us? It has been a while since this Pirate Queen or whatnot made her threat known, and yet there has been hardly a sign of her.

[She bites on her thumb a bit and snorts, letting out some frustration and stress.]

I have never...dealt with one so polite or formal in their threats that used it not to mask their condescension. This is new to me and I must admit I am unsure how I am supposed to approach this. Even with my sense of chivalry about me, you rarely see such manners transferred to the battlefield.

[This is so embarrassing you guys. A knight, antsy to do justice, and almost feeling sympathy for who she'd slay. She doesn't remember the last knave she fought that was worth such praise.]

I thought dashing, mannerly rogues only existed in children's stories and uncouth romance novels for bored noblewomen.

Look around you. We're in a magical garden. There are fairies, there's magical soil, there are animals that understand you when you talk to them and then bring you food or lead you places.

And we're all expected to fall in love and prosper.

[ She shakes her head and sighs. ]

We're already in something halfway between a children's story and an uncouth romance novel.

[You know, you got a good point. However, that still brings up an uncomfortable implication.]

Let us pray it stays more towards the former and not the latter. I am unsuited to dealing with anyone who can only be bested behind locked doors.

Though the idea of having the best an opponent with chaste courting and other silly childhood notions of romance is almost as embarrassing.

Oho? I guess a princess' knight would be chaste. So, you aren't going to fall for the whole romance angle here? I kinda thought the same way and it hasn't really panned out like that.
