The red headed woman had been the first to react to her statements, and the rider was taken aback by the insults hurled out of her mouth. Her face darkened and her hand balled up into a fist at her side, preparing herself for being attacked against the violent woman. Her icy glare was a gale of offended bitterness. [i][b][color=7B68EE]"The gods hear your words and they pity your display."[/color][/b][/i] She hissed to the woman, her words dripping with venom. However, as the pale haired man from before spoke, her face fell into her emotionless mask from before. Politely, she took the time to listen to his questions, as well as the mages beside him. She visibly relaxed as she saw them drop their fighting stances, but kept an eye on the violent redhead that had hurled words at her. At the name 'Valefor,' she perked up and a look of happy nostalgia washed over her face, melting the emotionlessness like a warm ocean wave washing on white sands. [color=7B68EE]"Valefor..."[/color] She whispered the name, then felt her lips as though saying the name aloud felt foreign to them, her eyes lowering in thought for a moment. She pulled her hand back down and looked at the mage to listen to her next question. She was quiet for a moment, then turned half way to look towards the Chamber of the Fayth. She stood like that for a moment before looking back at the group. [color=7B68EE]"I have wandered for a very long time. Then I heard my friend calling to me..."[/color] The rider stood silent a moment longer, then looked down as though thinking of something. When she looked back up, her emotionless face was back. She had made her decision. Though she knew the mage would be able to take it down easily, it would at least put a bit of distance between her and the meddlesome redhead. Perhaps it would... cool her off as well? The thought made the rider chuckle. She turned to face the entire group once again. [color=7B68EE]"I'm sorry... but I can't keep her waiting any longer."[/color] Quickly, she dropped down into a stance as though she as about to make a lunge towards them, but instead of that, something else happened. Beneath her feet a large, blue and black alchemy-like circle formed underneath her and took up the entire opening leading into the hub room between the cloister and the chamber of the fayth. With a grunt, the rider leapt backwards into the room, and in her wake a frozen wall not unlike the mage used before closed up the entrance. Through the dull transparency of the ice, they would be able to see the rider turn and run into the chamber of the fayth.
