Rosa thought, with some amusement, that her boys really were impressive knights. Standing united, there was nothing that could hope to hold against them. Cecil was incredible at drawing enemy attention and he had a sensual grace in the flow of his movements as he evaded and parried violent blows as thought they were nothing more than leaves in a breeze, turning the entire field of battle into a brazen target for Kain to strike into from above with his elegantly powerful maneuvers. They really were a sight to behold; their innate trust in each man playing his part allowing them to do so much more than the younger generation of knights could believe possible. Of course, she also knew that, as good as her boys were as knights, that really wasn't where their skills shown the most. But those skills were not for public knowledge, and were best left to the privacy of the royal bedchamber.
