Somehow, Helena's heart wasn't in the training at the moment. She wished to be away from the castle for a bit, on her own without family around. The vampire put the wooden doll back with the other training equipment and made her way to the stables. To her delight, Adam and Alia were chit chatting. "Hello Alia, hello Adam," Helena greeted to the two with a smile. "Sorry to be of short notice, but I'd like to take Flash to the city. Is he ready?"

Adam looked back at his friend's dark brown horse and nodded, "Yup, he's well-fed and slept." She noticed Adam start to go to the saddles, but she quickly stopped him by catching his shoulder. The man turned around, surprised.

"Oh, sorry Adam," Helena said, releasing her grip, "I don't want you to worry, I'll get him ready."

Adam nodded with a smile. He knew there was no point in arguing, especially when she didn't want him to do work. "No problem, you know where your saddle is, right?"

"Yes sir, I do." Quickly, she retrieved the saddle and saddles Flash. "You ready boy?" The horse dipped its head a bit, flicking its eat. "Alright." She mounted the horse and waved to Adam and Alia. "I'll be back in a few hours. Stay safe you too!" With that, she was off, riding across the fields.

"So, did you want to ride your horse?" Adam chuckled to Alia after waving goodbye to his friend.

Helena loved the feeling of wind rushing through her hair, loved to feel the power in the horse, loved the feeling of freedom. It took her about fifteen minutes to make it to the canteen. She tied off her horse by a few others, allowing them to "socialise" while eating and drinking water.

Not very many people recognized her royal status in the canteen, mostly because a lot of them were drunk, but the few people that did tended to let her be. Helena took a seat at the bar, though she didn't order any alcohol. Overall, she wasn't a big alcohol person, preferring to not be under control of any substance. She loved watching the entertainment.
@Silmaril I can have Helena go to the bar so she'll be there when Deena sings.
@Silmaril I can do the "introduction" post now between Deena and Helena, of you'd like. :3
"I hope this starts soon," Adelfa murmured to herself, arm hanging out of the open car window. She noticed Blake's car pull up and smiled a bit.

Adam heard soft footsteps coming towards the stable and knew exactly who it was. He turned to meet Alia and gave her a deep bow just as the guards had. "Bonjour madame," Adam replied, coming up from the bow. He loves hearing her intricate language. It was so graceful and complex at the same time, at least to him. There were times he couldn't understand a few words, sometimes even a whole sentence, but this was because of his lack of education. This time, however, the man understood every word.

"I have been good, sweet Alia," he replied, trying to match her intracy a bit. Adam was in no way mocking her, simply just showing her he cared.

"Allegro was spooked this morning by the screams," Adam explained, speaking as he normally would. "If you would like you can take him for a bit of a ride." By ride, he meant letting the horse go at a fast trot. He took great care in taking care of the princess- all of them. With Alia he tended to keep her delicacy and ladyness very protected, usually not letting the horse go fast enough to tangle her hair. If she asked, however, he made exceptions to his personal rule.

Helena watched Edmond put his hand in the fire, momentarily forgetting his powers granted him the immunity to do this. "Oh yeah?" she teased, "I can do that too." She quickly slashed her hand across the fire, feeling its warmth, but not close enough to bring burned. She was very fond of fire, so she learned this trick at a young age. It was great for entertaining little kids. At his bumbling words, Helena smirked a bit. "Hey, don't worry, it's on a little boat and you row across the water." She wished she could give him the comfort of her having experience on canoes, but she couldn't. "Besides if you fall in I'll help you, alright?" Saying this, she hoped he didn't hear Valencia, Cecilia, and her conversation earlier when she mentioned she couldn't swim well.
Helena was outside in the grounds, working with a wooden doll. She much preferred hand-to-hand than sword fighting, but she practiced both regardless. Her right forearm hit one of the upper sticks while her left arm "blocked" a possible rib shot. The vampire repeated this, only in reverse, her left arm struck and her right blocked.

The sounds of Mahzun's killed broke her concentration, making her miss the post and stumble. She had heard the screams of his victims many times, but they were still surprising every time. Everyone's screams were different, everyone's pain different. She took a deep breath and continued to work with the post, increasing her speed as she continued. The sound of the wood knocking against her arms clicked across the grounds.

Adam took a bucket of water and poured them in the troughs for the horses. He knew ordinary horses liked to be awake during the day and sleeping at night, but this species had been bred for hundreds of years to be more nocturnal. The man grabbed another bucket, now feeding each horse oats and other grains. There was nothing he loved more than taking care of the horses and considered himself lucky to have his dream job.

Screams echoed from the castle and Adam knew these were from Mahzun. He didn't flinch, but a few horses bucked up and reared, flailing their hooves in the air. "Shh shh shh!" Adam said, holding his hands our and clicking his teeth a bit. The horses calmed a bit, but still stirred. He went to each startled one, petting its face and whispering it comforts. They didn't understand him, but that was okay because the tone of his voice calmed them. "Better now?" Adam chuckled, patting the nearest one.

Diane walked through the city, carefully noticing everyone. She noticed a girl innocently splash in a puddle, a woman enter a store, purse ready to have money taken out of it, a man sitting on the corner singing. He didn't seem homeless or in in need of help, more singing for others to hear. Regardless, Diane tossed a coin at him, causing it to land on the rim of his hat. "Thanks!" This was the city she loved and strived to keep safe with everything she did.

Helena felt bad for being part of the reason that the original activity was canceled. Did that mean their spar was canceled? She figured so, but would ask the others later and be sure to ask the councilors for permission, perhaps for them to overwatch and make sure everyone was safe. Edmond's words brought her back to reality, and she chuckled, "Hmm, I'll make the exception for you, you can call me Hele." The councilors then mentioned canoeing and partners. Helena looked at Edmond and nodded to his partner offer, "Yeah, for sure that sounds like fun." Everyone had a partner- James and Cecilia, Valencia and Max, and Ivy and Kyle. She wondered how the two fire users- Ed and Ivy- would fair in the water. "Do you like water?" she found herself asking Edmond.
@KatherinWinter

Helena raised her hand and asked the councelors after they were done talking, "Are we allowed to go into the opposite gender's dorms?" She didn't mind the event got canceled, though she felt slightly guilty it was because of her and her friends. So what did they have to talk to the counselors about when they had plans? What was on and off limits? The camp rules weren't lined out, though she didn't mind this either, she didn't find it fair to be punished for unclear rules.
