Tirza
It was kind of surprising that she could nearly shock or surprise two Drakken's in one day. Let's see how far I can get. She thought as she smiled at the male that had claimed her, before he went on about how he didn't need to flatter her since she had no choice but to comply. Which was true but that didn't stop her pouting at the Drakken. "Oh thats a shame, as I was looking forward to be wined and dined." She said as she slowly smiled, her tone was a polite one as she didn't want to push too hard. Though she knew that she was pushing, though obviously not as hard as the princess. For being royalty you would think she would push a little more lightly, considering she could get more than a Drakken killed. If anyone of these brutes decided to blow up they would not care about who happened to get in the way.
Her attention was suddenly taken away from the princess, female Drakken, the big bear chest Drakken, her claimer and the creepy dude that claimed the princess, to a rather intimidating Drakken who had an air of arrogance about him. She listened as he basically put the princess in her "place", though she had a feeling that wasn't going to stop the princess from voice her opinion again. Why Wilhelm was being so passive with her was beyond her, anyother Drakken would of slapped her silly by now. Drakken's were simple, yet complicated creatures.
That was when the large naked chest Drakken basically introduced the newcomer as the prince of Drakka, now this was a surprise. When the prince looked in her direction she winked at him. She could see that he might make a go for the princess. This caused Tirza to suddenly laugh, not too loudly but loud enough for people to know that one of the Gem brides were laughing.
"Oh this is precious!" She suddenly blurted out as she watched, if no one saw this coming they were blind or dumb. "He would make a go at her, he would go for royalty." She said with a slight giggle, oh she knew she was pushing it now but she couldn't help herself.

Kithra
I'm not going to be picked! I'm not getting picked! I can go home! Kithra thought as she watched as the other girls were claimed and being shown more interest than her. The hope that she was feeling was nearly overwhelming, as she would be able to go home to her sisters and parents and live in peace once again. She wouldn't have to worry about upsetting a Drakken lord and she wouldn't have to worry about her body being taken back home and her family seeing the horror she had to endure. She actually had great hope of seeing her homeland again.
She suddenly envisioned the green hills, the trees, meadows filled with wild flowers and her being able to marry a gentle and handsome Gem man. She could see it all and it brought a smile to her face, she would finally be happy. But that was dashed when she heard the voice of a late comer, she was the last to be claimed. Goddess no! Please no! She thought as she opened her eyes slowly to see a rather large Drakken make his way towards them. But he was talking to the princess about the Drakken that had claimed her and how no one in their right minds would challenge him. Though Kithra could hear that there might be a "but" in there.
That was when she heard one of the Gem girls further down the line laugh and call out what was going to happen. Goddess she is insane. She thought as she looked at the Prince and back down the line. When the Prince went to look at those left she knew she was pretty much the only one. She lifted her chin slightly to show that even though she was scared she would stay strong. That was true courage. Something she was sure that none of the Drakken people could possibly understand. She used her element to draw a little strength as she felt like she needed it.
She felt the warmth of the earth and the smell of cut grass work its way around her. She felt her fear fade slightly but not leave completely.
"I am strong." she whispered to herself lowly.
