Wakfu: The Voyage of the Golden Dragon (IC)

[Chahiro]

"Prince Armand! It's so good to see Your Higness once again!" Chahiro bowed with a flourish and smiled up at the Sadida, covering for Jin and Baichi's blunder with ease. "It's been quite some time since we've seen you at the Club. How are you these days? I heard about the situation in the Kingdom; you must not have time for little ol' me these days, huh?"

She reached her hand out and allowed him to place a kiss on the back of her hand. "Since I have you here, do you know of anyone on this ship who is a powerful plant-wielder? We were attacked by someone who shot a bulletseed at us and then grew vines from it to try and strangle us. Does the attack sound familiar to you?"

Rachel watched Chahiro a moment and then looked at Armand. He was handsome, she'd admit and was slightly shocked by her thoughts. Awkwardly, she turned her attention to Baichi and Jin, helping them straighten up.

"Are you two alright?' she asked.

[Jactance]

"Why, isn't it Mistress Chahiro." Prince Armand grinned as he recognized Chahiro. 3 of his bodyguards gave an astonished expression while looking at his own prince, and then the sacrier. So did Jin and Baichi. "Er, uhh... Chahiro, you know this guy personally!?" Baichi exclaimed, as he rudely pointed at the royal sadida. Armand, irrataded, glanced down at the misplaced pandawa, but immideately brought back his friendly expression. "Don't be surprised," He advised his guards, " She's my 'therapist'." Then he turned to her once more, now pointing at her friends with a slightly confused gesture. "But Chahiro... Who are these... erm, people following you?"

[Cecily Phantom]

"I'm Rachellinette. It is a pleasure to meet you, Prince Armand." Rachel spoke up politely, giving a bow to the prince.

She had never met an actual prince before, since her father had forbade her from actually talking to his customers. But Armand seemed rather kind, if not a bit rude and pretentious. With a smile she motioned to the others.

"This is Jin and Baichi."

[Chahiro]

"Yes, Baichi. I know him personally. I know him very well, in fact. He used to visit the Club on a pretty regular basis. That is before the Princess Amalia left off to galavant around Bonta with Evangelyne."

"And to answer your question, Prince Armand, these people are......well.....I guess the closest thing I could call them would be....followers," she said with a smile while scratching the back of her head. "We are trying to figure out what's been going on tonight and I have a bone to pick with the person that caused my beautiful Cra slave to die," her expression turned sour, "whoever it is will pay. They will pay dearly and they will regret ever fucking with me and those under my care."

[Jactance]

Leaving those doubtful guards rumoring, the Prince smiled at the petite xelorette. "Why, nice to meet you, Miss Rachellinette." He knelt and kissed the palm of her hand. "Please to meet such a gentle young lady like you." Armand then listened to Chahiro's story carefully, as Jin also explained the stolen case from his office. "...Wait a second," Baichi rudely interrupted, "I haven't seen you at the reception hall when the ambush took place...Where were you then?" Baichi still seem suspicious about the only Sadida in the Airship. Jin hastily covered his mouth, stuttering nervously. "H-heh heh, sorry about this one, he don't know what he's talking about..." You know, pandawas...Right? He added.

[Cecily Phantom]

Rachel was blushing furiously from the kiss to her hand. He really was suave but Baichi had a point. She couldn't recall seeing the prince anywhere in the hall either. With a small frown, she turned her attention to the Pandawa. "Like Prince Armand would order someone to attack a ship, much less one that he himself is riding. That doesn't make sense, Baichi. Think before blurting out wild accusations." she scolded.

[Chahiro]

"Now, now, Rachel. Baichi has every right to be suspicious. And he has a point. But I know where Armand was, he was with me during the demonstration."

"But back to the original question, do you know anyone capable of using such a spell, Armand?"

[Jactance]

Even scolded by Rachel, Baichi shrived not liking this at all. He quieted down some more when Chahiro said the Prince was with her during the ambush. "But back to the original question, do you know anyone capable of using such a spell, Armand?" Armand paused for few seconds. "-I might know just a guy." He finally said. Without an emotion, Armand gestured the guards with his eye. The guards nodded as one of them called to the crew. "Yes, we know his room number. Right this way." Jin, still covering Baichi's slobbered mouth dropped him and decides to follow him with confidence. "You guys are coming right?" He asked the girls.

[Cecily Phantom]

Rachel nodded and quickly followed. She wanted to know just as much as the others who had caused the panic on the ship. She was doing this little "quest" to prove she was a big girl and that she didn't need her father. Silently, she caught up to Armand and smiled up at him.
"So...what's the Sadida kingdom like? I've heard it's beautiful!"
