[Video | Both Courts] 1st Battle
"As far as abductions go, this one is rather polite. I would have thought I would be properly ransomed by now, not treated to a feast and my own quarters..."
[Your newest arrival, Seelie-folk, is not speaking with complete honesty here. She of course came her of her own free will just like everyone else, she was just under the impression it was a dream at the time. She didn't expect to be stuck here. But even she has to admit it's not as bad as it could be, considering her rank as a princess appears to be given at least some respect. And, well, she wasn't being treated as she expected a captive would be treated.
Hard to say if that diminished any annoyance she might have been feeling though, considering her expression at the moment. "Displeased" would be a mild understatement, but at least she wasn't inconvenienced to the point she was out trying to destroy the castle.
Her room has an adjoining study attached, in which a servant appears to be busying himself tidying up. Dusting the bookshelves, furniture, and generally just trying to make the study she was granted as presentable as possible. Looma has not yet had the heart to announce to him that everything inside simply must go. But that will be changing soon enough! It was the entire point behind this video announcement after all, as she had exactly zero need for friends or any similar social attachments.]
"I am Princess Looma of the House of the Red Wind. I have decided to offer a trade, and will consider your offers as necessary. I have no need of anything in this room, and wish to be rid of it! What I do require is a proper stand for my armor, as well as the necessary materials for its care. My hammer requires the same attention."
[She holds the hammer into view not necessarily to show it off, but more out of practicality. Her experience back home was that few species still used such weapons, and those who once did certainly constructed them differently. Hers had a head at either end, and was about the size of a human child. Of course, anyone particularly attentive would also note that she appeared to be holding it into view with two right hands, raising the question of just how 'alien' she was, exactly. As if the four eyes and blood red skin weren't enough of a tip off with regard to her non-human nature.]
"Provide that, and you may have your pick of anything in this room. Except my attendant, of course. Unless he proves to be as worthless as the rest of the room."
[She could not fathom how this would be a fair trade in this or any world, but if the furniture and books were prized enough to be included as a gift, perhaps there was some value to them. She just didn't know what or why. To her, a small armory would be far more preferential to a study. At least it had an immediate usefulness attached to it.]
"Anything left unclaimed will be used for kindling, so speak quickly! I need to explore more of this place, and prepare for the battles promised to me."

So I am to believe you have no interest in my possessions? Then begone.
video
Of course I have no interest, and neither do you. Burn it and be done with it, and spare us the noise you are making. You will not get anything of value for paper and fabric.
video
From the likes of you, you mean. If they were valued highly enough to be gifted to me, then perhaps they are valued enough to be bargained for.
video
So valuable they let them sit, locked in a room gathering dust. If you had not arrived, it would have been 'gifted' to someone else. You will make a good pawn for them if you are so easily manipulated by their generosity.
video
oh joy they're both xenophobic supremacists]I am no one's pawn, worm. I fight in this war because I was promised the glory of a hundred battles, not out of loyalty to these See-Lee. Should they disappoint or betray me, I will wage a war of my own making.
video
Best friends!]There is no glory in war, nor is there honor. If you think to find either of those here, or anywhere, you are as stupid as you are gullible.
