As Elise reached the foot of the hill, which she carefully maneuvered down thanks to her heightened balance when using the ringblade, just in time to hear someone call out a simple 'sickly Sally'. She felt her lip muscles sharpen into a straight line when she saw the same girl from yesterday - green hair and of average height (at least, from Elise's perspective) - though she lacked the disgusted look from the day before. Elise was surprised the girl even remembered her, honestly. She resolved herself to a bow, carefully lifting the ringblade over her head as she did so.

"...Hello again. I hope my illness didn't cause you any-" She stopped suddenly upon noticing rose-haired figure passing her, and suddenly there was a twinge of hate deep inside her stomach. Rosa swept into a bow easily, almost as if she'd been born into royalty, something Elise was uncomfortable to match. No one ever acted so politely to her, not since her days in the village.

Before she could muster up an answer, eyes still wide with shock that Rosa hadn't been a construct of her imagination and was, in fact, real and in this very forest., Rosa turned and walked into the temple, examining something on the black half of the arranged pedastals.

This is your chance, She thought quietly, covering her mouth with a closed fist. If you pick the right artifact, you'll get somebody decent on your team. Elise turned to gaze back at the green haired girl and Glaukos, all of whom seemed familiar with Rosa, before twisting back into position. I don't know how that girl and Glaukos will act, but Rosa was actually....

Her hand seemed to reach for the black knight piece, at which point Elise spun around in a full circle, ringblade dragging from her left hand into the grass, leaving a long scar across the ground. There were an infinite number of combinations these relics could fall into, sure, but hierarchically speaking.....

Who does the knight protect?

"Glaukos," She said suddenly, a surprising amount of force packed within her voice. She gestured back with her free hand toward the circle of relics. "King or queen?"
