“Watch ya self. stead up, the Prince will be here when he is resdy.” Coswain remained static and moved his eyes and slight turn of head as the crowd milled about spotting a woman pushed by the crowd. moving a slow purposeful movement he gave the butt of the staff a sharp crack on a stone and a metal clad fist Into his chest plate to make them take notice.
He could be more active but remained passive and took advantage of the steel helmet and armour that made him an imposing statue of Steel plates, chainmail and hardened leather. The clear tone of command and ornate decoration of rank visible.
“Make her some space. Make a hole.” He said naturally with a commanding calmness but also stern undertone. He did not shout, that would be a less effective tone, his voice carried easily.
Looking at a woman with darker hair, dressed in practical clothes and looked like she barely woke up, his “wife” was the same, she never slept well and always had nightmares, often holding her ever since the darkness fell.
“Come to the side.. you hurt? Lord Castellan Coswain. Lunaris Royal Guard. Safer this way maam.” The guard remained at the stoic parade but softened his tone to a more personal one, politely diplomatic and introduced himself and made a short economical gesture to an area where people did not want to stray too close to the guard line's wing. it was not as busy as most thronged to the centre and stage.
Yes they had a … reputation but he was not a brute or a monster and chose to help the lady before harm came to her. The sword was definitely a military or less wholesome issue though, it was not fancy but long swords tend to not be carried by the civilian as a personal arm.
He looked about the milling crowd with economical movements barely of head and eyes, it was getting busy and pushing more as it waited and was debating various theories of the gathering.
“Prince making an important announcement, should not be too long now.” He said, the person seemed less sure of why.
Coswain kept alert as he watched, hopefully the Prince came before things took any turns for worse. He was a veteran of many crowds and their fickle nature.
...
Persephone was shunted slightly as stood in the crowds, their was a foaming figure, others she not seen, a woman? Who seemed to be bio luminous. The in keeper was changing between annoyed, mischief, amusement, casual body language and more besides in the rapid change. She seemed to be holding her own though, Sya was it.. yeah, Sya she must be fairly able to manage her job at the Inn, even as a blightborn. Trust...no, blightborn where always a risk...but she seemed to be .. not a problem right now.
Spotting a silver haired woman talking to a bio luminous form, almost like a mushroom? Was that a form of mushroom? A living mushroom... what on the moon's glow was that.
The taller woman In a smart Lunariam uniform, her red hair with some greys
in it from age walked over to see a silver haird woman talking with the living mushroom and decided to say hello, she did not trust the blighrborn like any Lunarian... but she would approach and gauge the situation. You always learned, you did not learn without a few risks.
"Hello, its all quite abit much, you'd think the band, Royal paladins and coach are coming." She spoke casually and approached, she yawned a little having not slept well, the dreams, visions and things had plagued her for months. Whatever it was the moon had caused them to be far more regular than any time in her life.
"If I might say, If you wish to take up a trade, the Prince or Royal staff might help you find a place to set up as well as a grant of gold." She said diplomaticly even as her alarm bells rang from a blightborn. She just did not trust, seeing what feral ones had done... utter monsters. Dawn Haven did need more trades and the Prince had plenty of gold.
