Moving Forward [Open]

[Deleted]

Diamond knew that he had to make Noku a lot more sympathetic or perhaps more open to fated. Perhaps doing a recruitment drive and maybe engauge the people. He was Mylee's champion as well and it seemed that he was doing a damn good job with the people. Well at least the Novian people. So the white haired male went to the square with several men in uniform. Then went to a small stage area sometimes used for perhpas decrees and edicts. Taking a deep breath and walked up and a lot of people stopped what they were doing. "Men and women of Nova, I would like a bit of your time, to hear what I need to say. As many of you know me as Mylee's champion. But recently I have been made a leader of a new branch of the guard called the Rose Court. With the on going situation with the Fated. We were made to help stem the tide of violence on both sides. His majesty has had enough of the violence and on going hatered. Most of these fated have never wanted to cause trouble and are trying to survive in a place that is not there own. On the same coin, the Fated that are out there. Not everyone in Nova hates you and wants your head on a pike. Most of us are mortal beings that fear the unknown and the strange at times" he said and went with his heart to the people then rather a strict and stiff decree. That was not his style at all, if he were trying to reach the common person of any level.

"Even his majesty is like everyone here, but he taking the first step on moving forward to a new dawn. To be an example for everyone to follow. These steps will be rocky I am sure that they are. So to that end, those Fated out there that want to change things for the better. Or those Novians that want to prove to the Fated that they are not out for there blood. I welcome those to join the Rose Court. Now that there maybe others that want to discredit me for my tallents as a sellsword. Or that I am an outsider that is out to get some money and fame. But over time, I am slowly seeing Nova as my new home. And his majesty has accepted me into his country with a role and responsability like this. I am sure that those out there can be accepted into this kingdom as well. So I hope today we all can build a better and united kingdom for his majesty. I thank you all for your time" said Diamond and bowed before the people before stepping down the stairs of the stage. He had hoped that what he said could change the hearts of the people. There was the worry that he might have painted the wrong picture of the king. But at the same time, a ruler should be relatable to the people in some way. The other thing was that he hoped that this could fix some of the relations between the people of Nova and the Fated.

Diamond was not sure on how to judge the people as this was his first time to do any kind of public speaking or anything hinting of politics. But right now, he had to be a bit proactive to get the peace going.

Tres noticed a large group of decorated soldiers in the square as she strolled about the town. She slowed her pace and joined the small crowd of people who surrounded them. She hid behind the front line of people, peering over their shoulders. She saw a white-haired man who stood onstage, and spoke of a feud between the peoples of Nova, and those of the Fated.

Tres had been somewhat aware of the feud, and heard from word-of-mouth what the impacts of the feud have been on the Novian community. She stood and listened to the man as he spoke of progress, and taking small steps towards the long-sought-out peace between the two peoples. After he had elaborated on peace-keeping, and spoke of the likeness to the king, he bowed and came off stage. Tres followed him with her eyes, and wanted to speak to him to know more.

She began wandering over to the man, to discuss the matter with him, if she could get close enough. For a brief moment, she recollected seeing him. It felt as though it had been a long time, however she recognized that white hair. "Hello? Excuse me sir!" she called to get his attention.

As Diamond walks away from the stage he was deep in thought and again hoped he made a good impact.  While doing so a voice speaks out to him and sees a familure but could not put his finger on it. He turns to the woman and just raised his eyebrow "Yes how can I help you" he motioned with his hand to the men he was with. And told them to lower there arms as this women was not a threat. The white haired male was just curious on what this wanted with him. More then likely she wanted to talk about what he said to the people. Perhaps she wanted to sign up and join his unit? Or perhaps argue on his views on whats going on? Either way it might get more people talking on the matter or putting the idea into there heads.

    After approaching the white-haired man, Tres noticed that the surrounding guards began raising their arms at her. But with a quick wave of the hand from the man in front of her, they quickly returned back to their original posts. Tres flattened out her ruffled skirt, and proceeded to speak with the man in charge.

    "I simply have a few questions that I believe you of all people could answer." she paused a moment, looking back at the guards to make sure that they weren't going to confront her the way they had before. Regarding the white-haired man again, she smiled. "Do you have a few moments for me to regard your mind?" she smiled sweetly and hoped that he wasn't busy.

"Sure, why don't you walk with me. And what would these quesstions be" Diamond said and the men that were with him just relaxed. If he was going to be out with the people a lot more esspectialy with Fated people. Plus open talks like this would further get more postive ideas if he could answer them correctly. So none the less he was going to be as open as he could. The men that were with Diamond knew that he could take care of himself. But if the crowd got roudy or some kind of attack. It was better to have a few people around him. "I will try and answer them to the best of my ability....and I hate to ask this but have we met before" he said with a curious look on his face. Since Diamond got a better look and heard Tres's voice a lot more clearly then before since she was from a distance.

    Tres appreciated his sincerity and his interest in her concerns and questions regarding the subject matter. She simply nodded, and gestured a hand asking if he would like to walk. If he accepted, she would walk alongside him in the crowded area, if not then she would remain put and continue the conversation as proceeded.

    As she began forward, Tres regarded the man, then felt her brow furrow. She had thought that she recognized the man, but did not know from where. Or at least she could not identify from which exact moment she met him. "Oh, sir... I am unsure. I did think you were familiar, but I thought it was just because you paroled the grounds." Then it dawned on her. "No, wait! You were the man I encountered in the forever forest. I was out foraging for the day." Tres smiled, "But I do forget your name, and I apologize for such. Do remind me, what is it?" she asked sincerely.

    After a moment of reconnecting with the man, she finally got to her questions regarding his speech. "These "fated" peoples... Are they of this world? Who are they? And how do we know of their presence?" She asked. She had heard of the fated from whispers in the world of Nova, but never fully understood where they came from. This peaked her interest, and she wanted to know more.
