Proverbs From Hell

by Scytherageroses

A severe gloved hand wields political power at Castle Vrbada deep in the forests in Prague. Every Friday night, Queen Jindřiška throws a masquerade party in hopes that her only son, Tomáš, will find a bride. Newly eighteen, and with the Lin Kuei at his side, Tomáš tries not to lose himself in a world of politics, arraigned marriages, and eventually, war. (Cross Posted on AO3)

div dir="ltr" style="outline: none !important; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"There was a cold chill in the air within the misty forest outside Castle Vrbada. Hesperia, dressed the best way she could, curled into herself as she ran through the desolate woods not once stopping until she could reach the city limits. However, she did not know where the exit to the forest was, and it felt like she was traveling in an ever-going cycle./div

He then pulled her into his arms, and she tried to scream, tried to fight him off. "Stay close to me, guards are coming." he said. Her eyes grew wide, and she gasped. He held her head to his shoulder and leaned against a tree, tried to camouflage themselves as guards walked past them. /span/div

"Like I said, looks like you had a good time. Unfortunately, it looks like the gentleman couldn't offer to fix your clothing." He then reached to the zipper to her dress, and she once again growled. "Get your hands off me.", slapping his hands away from her. /span/div

"You're in my territory, lady. And you're skating on thin ice." he said coldly, "don't be a brat, I'm helping you. But if you want to keep acting up, then I'll just leave you to the guards." "Helping me, it doesn't look like it." she said. /div

"I'm not a fashion expert, I'm doing my best to replicate what you had on earlier today." Gently, he put her hair into a ponytail, brushing out any knots, then holding her hair with a knitting needle that he had taken from the castle. "Be careful with this. It was my mother's." he said quietly. "Then why are you giving it to me?" she asked. He shrugged. "Whatever. I'll keep it safe." she said, "I owe you that much." "Thank you." he said, "now let me turn you around, fix the front of your dress."/span/div

You are really pretty." Her eyes narrowed. "Relax, ok?" she looked away and sighed as he fixed the bosom to her dress, then smoothed out her skirt. He opened his mouth to begin a conversation again but stopped. "Never mind." he said quietly. "What, got something more to say?" she snapped. He inwardly laughed, remembering span style="outline: none !important;"Tomáš had said almost the same thing to Cyrax. /span"You sure are mean." he said. "I'm defending myself. There's a weird guy who's putting his hands all over me, what do you want me to do?" she replied. /div

I don't know where your hotel is, or where you're staying, but I can't bring you there. It's bad enough I'm disobeying orders by protecting you and not bringing you back to the castle, that queen was PISSED off at you." /span/div

Bi Han shrugged. "The queen doesn't like foreigners. She doesn't even like me and my brother Kuai Liang." "But you protect the castle?" she asked. "We're chinks." he said coldly, "she's said it to my face before. Say whatever you want about me, it pisses me off enough, but if she ever disrespects my brother.." he came close enough to whisper in her ear, "I will kill her." /span/div

"Protecting the prince and this castle is our duty as Lin Kuei, but I have a more emotional reason. I love the prince. Ever since I rescued him as a child, he's been a part of my life.

He's still in his shy little shell, but once he breaks out it, he's going to do great things." /div
div dir="ltr" style="outline: none !important; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"br style="outline: none !important;" /She smiled. "The prince, too?

"I had a good time." she said quietly, then turned back to Bi Han, who had laced his fingers through hers. "Walk with me, I'll protect you." he said. Hearing him say those words caused a wave of sadness to flow through her.

"Hesperia?" he asked, "not a name I've heard before." She hummed in nonchalance. "What's your background? Since you're not French, but your accent is obviously French." he asked. "I'm Norwegian. Born in Norway to a Norwegian mother and a Hungarian father. I left Norway when I was a child and was mostly raised in Geneva, Switzerland. That's where this accent comes from." /div
