Ryanne walked into the ballroom and stopped in the doorway. She took in the breathtaking sculptures and paintings. She walked over to the piano. As she walked, her shoes didn't click. Silence is golden to her. She stroked the piano. her fingers slid across the glossy surface. It was hard to believe that she'd been living here for almost a year now, yet there was alway secrets just waiting to be discovered.

Selena who had come in from the balcony saw the forien princess guest stroking the piano. "Hmm, I should go say hello.", she thought. Selena began to walk over to the Princess and Piano in a swishing and glide of skirts with a genuine grin on her face. "Hello.", she chimed her hair swaying lightly with her stride. "I noticed you fancy the piano. Do you play?", she asked with interest.

Ryanne turned to see the second eldest princess, Selena,approaching her. "No, I don't play" Ryanne replied in her customary quiet and monotone voice "Do you play?". Ryanne had seen Selena around the palace but had never talked to her.

"I do play.", she said with a cheery voice. "I play the flute as well. Do you play any instruments?", she asked her curiosity piqued, while she sat on the piano bench and placed her hands on the ivory keys, pulling a Beautiful chord out of the piano and into the golden room.

Ryanne stared of into oblivion "Yes. I play the flute too. I used to play the organ with my father until he died". Ryanne focused her attention on Selena. Usually when she sounded so matter-of-fact about her father's death, people would think she was a freak. Ryanne smiled to herself. Well, they had reason to. She wore black all the time, spoke in a monotone voice all the time and played the organ. Any normal person would think she was a vampire.

"I am sorry to hear that about your father...", she said stopping the chords, the normal cheeriness in her voice had turned into concern for the girl in front of her. "Is that why you still wear black?", she asked with compassion, turning her body towards the princess, folding her hands in her lap giving her full attention.

Ryanne smiled. "Oh no. I just like black, thats all". Ryanne stroked the ruffles of her dress "Black reminds me of black ivory" Ryanne got lost in her thoughts. They always said that her mother wore black ivory. Maybe that's why she liked it so much. Ryanne looked up at Selena "I like your dress. Interesting how the colours blend together"

Looking down at her blue/iridescent dress, Selena smiled. "Thank you. I havent seen much black ivory in my life. I suppose now I have.", she chimed, smiling and smoothing out her dress. "We were never formally introduced. I am Princess Selena Astor, Second eldest Princess of the Royal Family.", she said getting up from the piano's bench and giving a formalized curtsy, her colorful skirts billowing underneath her.

Ryanne curtsied as well "My name is Ryanne Rin Antoinette Grey, heir and Princess of the neighbouring kingdom" Ryanne's skirts rustled without making a sound. She straighted her back "So do you have any siblings besides your older siblings?"

"Well there is Annalisa, my younger sister. She is quite the learner, and doesnt really like me. And Stephen my younger brother. He doesnt really like to do anything that involves the others.", she said with a sad sigh, sitting back on the bench staring at the keys. "I wish my siblings would trust me better, or at least talk to me...", she said looking up at Ryanne with a sad smile on her face, the pain evident in her eyes. "Do you have any siblings?", she asked pushing her sadness to the back of her mind in a instant.

((Sorry to interrupt but do u guys know if Eliza is on?? I'm on my phone and I can't check :/))

((I can check))

((She isnt on. Sorry.))

((Hmm okay well thanks we got two posts in in the throne room then she left :P thanks anyway :) ))

((Welcome))

((By the way Sonami. I dont know the names of the other characters for the princesses and princes besides the two.))

((You here?))

((Sorry. Had to go help mum. And that's ok. I don't even know the name of my character's advisor))
Ryanne looked at the floor "Well, I don't really know. Everyone in my father's court always said that I had a twin but when i asked father, he said she was only a childhood friend of mine. I don't know what to believe. The court is full of gossips but my father was no more reliable himself"

"I understand. The court likes to spread rumor about the Royals, generally to move up in the ranks.", she said with the understanding of someone who had been wronged as well. "One of the court advisors had told me that the Head Guard fancied me, so I confronted Asher about this and made a total fool of myself , for he denied the whole story.", she said boldly, her voice cracking with unshed tears that burned her throat. "I could not show my face to the public or my family for weeks after the incident. Thank goodness they sent food and drink up to my room daily, for I never left my room."

((Continue tommorow?))

((sure thing))

((OK))

((or if your on now we could rp for a few minutes))

((OK))

Ryanne looked at Selena. The princess might not be that bad after all Ryanne thought. "There were plenty of rumours about me. In the court's eyes, I was either a witch, vampire, cursed child or not even of royal blood" Ryanne clenched her fists. She sighed "Anyway, do you know any combat skills?". That must've sounded weird. Not many female royals cooked, let alone practise combat.

"Yes. In fact I train with some of the best Swordsman in the castle! Including my father.", she said cheerfully, now delighted the conversation was about combat. "I have been training since I was 5 with my father and the Guards, I can beat most of the men in a hand to hand fight!", she chimed now fully recovered from the touchy subject they spoke of earlier. "Why do you ask? Do you specialize in combat?", she asked now curious to see this side of the Foreign Princess.

Ryanne smiled "Why yes, in fact I do. My father, best person in all areas of combat in our kingdom, trained me mentally from the age of 3 and started physical combat with me when I was almost 5. He taught me Tai chi, karate, judo, kickboxing, swordsmanship and archery. I can beat all my father's soldiers." Finally! She'd met a princess just like her. Capable of defending herself." It is actually quite amusing to see the look on a man's face when you challenge them to a fight. And then the look on their face when they are defeated is priceless!" Ryanne laughed softly.

"Ah yes... The Woman just beat me look... Gladly I have gotten the pleasure of seeing that look with my own eyes as well.", she said with a glad sigh, her head tilted slightly as she stares at the piano keys. "My father taught me to fight on horseback as well. Jousting and all.", she chimed as she looked back up into the princess's eyes. "Can you fight on horseback?", she asked cautiously, a bright gleam of respect shone in her Aquamarine eyes for the Warrior girl in front of her.

((Just so you know. Kickboxing, judo, karate, and all the martial art stuff hadnt been invented yet.))

((OOOOOHH! 0///////////0. Whoops!))

"Yes, actually. I can joust, fight with a sword and use a bow and arrow on horseback" Ryanne smiled "We should joust sometime"

"That would be quite the turn of events for my life. I dont get to joust very often.", she chimed happy to have a female partner to train in combat with, besides she has only trained with men for 12 years, no women whatsoever. "That is a lovely idea!", she exclaimed her face lighting up with excitement, a hint of mischief twinkled in her eye, obviously she was planning something. "Have you snuck out of the castle yet?", she asked, officially wanting to be the notorious tomboy she had been titled.

Ryanne smiled "I don't sneak ou of the castle. I just walk out the front gates". Ryanne's black eyes twinkled. She simply manipulated the metal armour the guards were wearing and gave them magical qualities that made her unseen to their eyes for a really short amount of time. Then she walked past them and when she was 50 meters away, the effects wore off. Ryanne felt a range urge to ask Selena a question "Selena, have you ever felt as if you're........different from everyone else?"

"Since I am one of the princesses I am not allowed to leave the castle grounds unless I am accompanied by the captain of the guard or second in command. But I already told you about my experiences with them.", she said in a dreary voice, sad that she is reprimanded so harshly. "I do feel different, but only sometimes...Why do you ask?", she questioned, curious about why the princess would ask such a strange thing.

Ryanne looked away suddenly "Oh it's nothing" Ryanne bore her eyes into Selena's "I was just getting strange electric signals from you. And not only you" Ryanne stared at the door "there's quite a few people in the palace with strange electric signals"

((sorry gotta go. we'll rp tomorrow))

"Wait...What are you talking about?...Electric signals?", she asked bewildered by what the other princess had just announced. "Not only me? Who else then!", she exclaimed, standing up fast, and clenching her fists nervously. Looking around so no one would hear, Selena asked in a firm voice, staring into the princess's eyes, daring her to not answer,"Who else?"

((OK BYE!))

"You know, karma waves. So far I know of two maids, a spymaster, a king, a prince and a slave. And you. You all have strange electric signals". Ryanne always used to wonder herself why she was so sensitive to things like this. Maybe because like metal is a conductor of electricity, its a conductor of overwhelming power and emotions.

"The Karma waves huh...two maids, a spymaster, a king, a prince and a slave, and me...", she muttered as she looked at her hands as if they would burst into flames. "Powers and Emotions...", she whispered as she looked up at the princess with a stern face, and a fierce stare. "Ok... I believe you...", but how do you know about all of this?"

Ryanne shrugged "I guess being hardly noticed makes me more observant than others. The court was talking about something to do with a prophecy, so maybe you guys have some thing to do with it?" Ryanne had no clue about the dreaded prophecy or what it was about.

"Hmm...A Prophecy...I will need to know more about that...", she muttered looking around the room for eavesdroppers. "When did you hear about this...Prophecy...and from whom may I ask?", she whispered to Ryanne, still watching her companion with a stern expression on her face, and a hard, stone grey, gaze.

((sorry to but in again but serena does the princess have a crush on ash?))

((Oh! Shoot! I was gonna add that! Thank you Allie! :) ))

((Just wondering cause im making him and i was wondering if i should put that hes always checking up on her because he really likes her and can kind of tell shes different ;P ))

((AW! YEA! Story twist!!!! XD Love the idea!))

((Lol I was kinda thinking he grew up in the castle and as a little kid he was like hardcore, writting poems and giving her flowers and then one day his dad told him he cant act like that because shes better then him and his father past away in combat, so to not disapoint he keeps his feelings hidden away now ))

Ryanne's face was straight and serious. From Selena's body language, she could tell this was a very serious subject "I was leaving the courtroom yesterday, when I heard two court members having a conversation. I didn't hear the everything but the most common words were 'prophecy', 'five fair' and 'five male'. And strangely enough, I sensed strange waves from nine people, a number close to ten, the same amount in the prophecy"

((I Still Love the idea! I say go ahead!))

((K hes done if u want to check him out later ))
