After that she simply walked on to see most of Orchidia's festival as well as the lake that was there and see the beauty that the green town was, she quite liked it here and she would have to find a good place to sit and simply look at the people, she had brought her notepad with her so she could draw, she found a tree that had a low hanging branch that she could climb up and sit a bit higher, so that was the best thing to do, she would have no one walking over her and thus sit in no one their way. She would see clearly over the part of the festival that she was closer to but not hear too much of the noise as the tree stood next to the lake. She would simply watch first and keep the notepad in her satchel.

Little did she know, that it was very likely that Keryth wanted to steer clear of any other elves, considering Zyra's status. In her mind, she had perfected her disguise and absolutely she trusted her own skills. Alas, if he had reservations it probably wasn't about her appearance, more about her demeanor and her loose tongue. It didn't really matter, because Zyra wasn't a very patient girl, now that she'd declared the existence of this other elf, it was time to take matters into her own hands and get some introductions out of the way. The Elroth definitely did not give her partner a chance to stop her, as she dove into the crowd towards where she had spotted that elf. Soon, the lavender-haired girl found herself in a clearing, with seemingly no one around. 'Strange! I swear I thought she'd be right here.' the girl muttered pouting, standing under the very tree that her target had climbed.

The dark-haired elf walked beside his princess, smiling and nodding at every appropriate moment to make sure she believed he was as interested in everything that she was. He had to admit some of the attractions at the festival were cool. But most of them were about colourful flowers and he didn’t care much for that. Things were going smoothly until he spotted another elf amidst the crowd. He knew this was inevitable, but he had had the fortune to avoid most of his kind at the festival so far. Most of the time, he had steered the elven princess away from them so that neither party witnesses the other. This time, however, it was too late. Before he could convince her to take a different turn or look elsewhere, Zyra had already spotted the elf.
There really was nothing Keryth could do as Zyra ran into the crowds towards where she thought this elf was. Groaning inwardly, he swiftly untucked his rogue rags so that it covered the golden dagger at his hip and also pulled the hood up. Hopefully, the hood will cover his elven ears and his unusual dark hair would make this elf assume he was human. The last thing he wanted was walk straight into one of the guards sent to capture them.
“Hey! Wait,” he yelled, as he ran after Zyra towards the clearing. While Zyra seemed lost and didn’t realize where Sorcha was, Keryth could see her sitting up at the tree as he was still several feet away from them. Worried that the princess might get jumped, he picked up the pace and spoke out loud. “Hello there!” he said, looking up at the tree branch where Sorcha sat. He did that mostly because he wanted to warn Zyra of her presence.

But that's when she noticed that the other one was an elf too, she had not seen any elves but the one in Magnolia forest and he was changed by a nymph or something like that was what he said, so she narrowed her eyes, the girl looked in one way or another familiar, would that mean she was really an elf, no magic involved. This made it that she didn't want to say anything, not answering questions she didn't want to answer to people that didn't belong in her realm.

The mystery cleared itself up when she heard a response from above her. Zyra's heart skipped a beat though, rarely does one expect someone to hear someone talking from above them. 'Oh! Scared me the-' she started as the fellow female elf slipped off the branch and landed very close to where Zyra had been. The interrupted elf leaped a few feet away in anticipation of the woman's jump. 'You could've landed on me!' she exclaimed, with a slightly accusatory tone as she now clutched her chest. 'Anyhow, doesn't matter... Who are you? What brings you to the realm of men?' Zyra asked curiously, perhaps her tone was a little interrogatory, but that wasn't her intention. Her free hand grabbed a strand of hair and twirled it.

So, he walked briskly towards the two as Zyra bombarded Sorcha with a bunch of questions, in her usual authoritative tone. As the princess never took that tone with Keryth, he always felt the need to steer her away from being tactless to others. Not that he cared for the people, but he surely didn’t want them to hate him. It was bad for business. He looked wide-eyed at Zyra, shook his head and turned towards the auburn-haired older elf. “Sorry if we interrupted you,” he said, smiling softly. If the girl really did not wish to interact with anyone and was only talking to them out of politeness, then it would be better if they all went on their own way. Lesser the time they spent together, lesser the chances of their true identities being revealed.

Apart from that there was no politeness in asking her these questions with such authority, which authority did she have, especially as she called it herself in the land of men. So she turned to her male companion, "Not really, I was just here to enjoy a bit of the piece that the crowd over there doesn't offer." she said friendly back to him before turning her amber eyes back towards the girl, it was of course very rude to not answer any questions and she had told many of her missing family but she didn't want to be shunned away by her own species, "As for why I am here, I would like to learn more about just our own." She eyed her shortly before giving an answer to the official first question she had asked, "And my name is Sorcha, I'm from the Donovan clan." she decided to say to at least give them something to reply to, perhaps this girl might know some of her family and would clear up the questions she had in her own mind and with that she could learn if they were like her; born elf. She believed so with the way the girl spoke but she wouldn't make that mistake again immediately.

It was apparent that Keryth was intending to cut things short, but Zyra wasn't done just yet, this could be fun. If the woman had any insight on the Elroth's true identity she could have already taken steps accordingly. 'You're bored of the humans already? I still find them quite interesting to watch.' the elfling responded, cocking her head just a little bit, barely even realizing that she'd just acted as though the humans were nothing more than specimens for her amusement. She looked up at the specks of the blue sky and the liquid gold from the sun, that fell from between the carpet of leaves overhead as their fellow acquaintance went onto introduce herself.
That name... Donovan, definitely sounded familiar. Zyra's brows furrowed as she tried to focus on her memories to try and figure out from where. She did make out a sort of unsavory feeling when she heard the name, probably someone related to something official. The Elroth would have to be on her guard after all. 'I see... Nice to meet you Sorcha of the Donovan clan.' she responded, as she tried to think of names she could use instead of her own as an introduction.

“Nice to meet you, Sorcha,” he said, when the auburn-haired elf introduced herself. Fortunately, or unfortunately, he wasn’t aware of the Donovan clan or the fact that one of them was a royal guard. For if he did, he would have found an excuse to bolt from there immediately with the princess. Now, all he had to worry about was to ensure Zyra did not give up their actual names. So, before she could, he took control of the situation. “I’m Alfred and she is Shyael,” he said, pointing first to himself and then at Zyra.
The dark-haired elf smartly chose a human name for himself and gave Zyra his aunt’s name. As for the clan, he reckoned he was better off not bringing it up as it was a rather difficult thing to lie about. He couldn’t make up a clan name and if he picked some random clan, chances are, this elf might know someone in that clan and they wouldn’t be able to hold a conversation without blowing the cover. So, it was best to avoid it unless asked pointedly.

But she was Sorcha, middle child and only daughter of Moire and Giomanach. It was a shame but right now she was with her uncle and out in the real world, even if her history would dislike any other species in general and have her too obsessed about the nature as it should be properly handled, that's why she couldn't wrap her head around the duo but than it clicked, it was of course an assumption but she could understand, she ran away because she fell in love with a human? Wasn't she a bit young for that though? It would be too rude to ask but she had to make sure that they knew that their secret no matter what it was, would be save with her. "I'm not bored of humans, they are very interesting, they have perculiar ideas and perks but that doesn't pull me away from them. It has been a long time that I have been in contact with others, I'm more of a loner isn't that what they call it." She looked from one at the other, "I don't have anyone to guide me, guard me or tell me what to do, so pardon my curiousity but as you seem to be hiding something, I won't ask what it is, I just want to make sure I will not be a threat." She didn't doubt their names, she believed in the none lying ability her mother taught her. But either her assumption was right or there was something else why a human and a elf would travel together, it was probably a facade the way she spoke about human beings, to avoid that, as elves weren't that fan of human beings or were that lies from her father again? To prevent her from running away?
While she had been the most loyal to her whole family to her clan.

"It was very nice to see someone like well like me for a while and good luck to the both of you." She actually did not know why she said that, it was probably the atmosphere that was buzzing in their little bubble of solitude? Silence? Anything really. She made her way away from them, which was strange as she was approached by them, so perhaps she was very rude but she got a strange vibe and not connecting it to them, she connected it to herself, what if she was around an elf too long and would get into this sort of depression because she was alone. She idd not want that.
Exit.

She cleared her throat, but let the silence hang after the lady assured them that their secret, whatever it was would be safe with her. She ran her fingers through her lavender her, tempted yet again to reveal her heritage, simply to have someone bow to her... It'd been so long since she'd been treated like royalty, Sorcha sure would honor her princess, wouldn't she? It was meaningless to expect such gestures from Keryth, they were way past the formalities, and from him, she definitely preferred it so. The uncomfortable silence hung for long enough, that Sorcha just quietly took her leave. Zyra cleared her throat yet again, deciding to continue on the other way, assuming that is what Keryth would want, given his very formal and hooded approach to the situation of running into one of their own kind...

Thankfully, as he was having the debate in his head, Sorcha decided to take her leave and that made his decision a lot easier. He simply nodded with a smile as they parted ways. Phew! Not more than a month away from home and Keryth was learning just how difficult the life of a vigilante could be. However, if this was the price he had to pay to achieve fame and fortune, then he was more than willing to embrace it. If anything, he felt this gave him all the more reason to become a nobility, when he could do whatever he pleased, took whatever he wished, and never hide from the world for it. With another encounter behind him that only bolstered his obsession, the dark-haired elf followed his princess as she trotted away from the clearing.
