Thalia smiled at them both, "I am called Thalia." She blushed deeply as Squidge bowed to her, "Oh, stop that! I haven't done much of anything!" She beckoned to them with a dark gray paw, "Come with me. I have heard of Vihata's spite towards the two of you, and I would not be surprised if she would kill us in a slow, painful matter if we saw us together..." Thalia stood in the middle of Squidge and Amor, the white vixen to the volemaids right, and her loyal companion to Thalia's left. She grabbed their paws, and began to hurry though the newly named Regina Vihata Woods. -~*~- Hemlock blinked in surprise, "Two traitors? Already?" She whispered, mostly to herself then to anybeast else. The wildcat turned to the new queen, and asked in a whisper that only Cadwen and Vihata could hear, "Who are these scum, milady?" Who indeed? (ooc: Here's the new thread for Amor, Squidge, and Thalia. Survival.) |

"Don't worry about the number! I had my eyes on them from the start. And they were more biased towards my family's rule than me in general. They were locked up along time ago, when Amor was too stupid to kill them. They're names are not important either, after all, they've been in the dungeons for about 2 years." Vihata said.

Cadwen followed her queen in high good humor. She may have lost that snivveling, pathetic Squidge, but at least she'd be getting a consolation prize. She pressed her lips into a thin, humorless smile, turning her black, depthless eyes briefly to the sky.
"Who they are matters not if they are being taken care of this day," she pronounced. "But the wildcat has a point, milady. No doubt there are still creatures here that remain loyal to Amor; they must all be addressed before any sort of uprising may occur." A pause. "I thank ye for such a gift, Regina Vihata. Ye are truly generous with your subjects." She grinned wolfishly, quite unlike her.

"Yes. And we need ti make sure they become loyal to me, all of them. Before I can start taking control of everything, of course. Wouldn't want an uprising, would we?" Vihata said, a frown showing up on her face, but then she smiled at Cadwen.
"No problem! After all, what type of qween would I be if I did not reward my captain and Advisor?" She asked rhetorically.

Hemlock was still confused, and she showed it. But a smile appeared when Vihata called her "advisor." She bowed deeply, "Thank ye, Regina, thank ye koindly." And the wildcat continued to pad with Cadwen and Vihata.
Hemlock was very, very glad she had came to Fort Amor. She had come to as a simple gypsy, willing to tell fortunes for a scrap of food. Now, the she-cat was an advisor to a queen, and no matter what seasons, from the cruelest winter to the softest spring, Hemlock was always to be well-fed.

Vihata smiled, genuinly happy.
"No, no, no! It was no problem really!" She said, blushing at the thanks.

Cadwen, hearing of her new status as captain, was becoming increasingly pleased. This was all working out just as it should; now Vihata was Regina, and soon all would be well. There were just a few loose ends, but she could live with that. Loose ends could be dealt with quite easily.
"What do ye intend to do to win further loyalty, Lady?" she asked, getting back to the topic at hand.

Vihata pondered for a moment. Hmmm... What indeed... She was scrolling through the list of things she could do. She frowned, when she relized she had no idea how to win loyalty in a quick way.
"Hmmm..... Do YOU guys have any ideas?" She asked, hoping they did.

Cadwen slipped an arm through Vihata's, a bold display of comraderie. She tipped her chin up and sideways, so that she was speaking directly into the black vixen's ear.
"Aye, Lady, I've an idea," she breathed, face gleeful and dark. "Fear! There is no better respect than that which is born from naked fear; ye have power -- use it! Show any and all dissenters what happens to traitors! Not how ye dealt with Amor... Perhaps I could volunteer my services with my gift?" She released Vihata then and sauntered on back in her place, behind the foxqueen.
"And what rewards are given to those who obey," she added thoughtfully. "Like raising a child, milady; discipline and love -- or rather, punishment and reward."

Vihata smiled, her ears pricked forward.
"Yes. Fear. I shall do just that! And I had a feeling ou would volunteer. But of course, Hemlock will have to have a few turns too. To show that I am fair. Even though I;m not." She said, grinning.
