Demostrate sat on her throne. Of course it wasn't a real throne, but merely a big chair carved out of an oak tree. Her advisors were talking outside of her tent, trying to find a way to please their empress. Demonstrate was known far and wide for her skills in tactics, her beauty, her kind heart and her madness. She would help whoever needed it, and punish those who did her wrong. Outside of the camp was the head of two out of three lords, who'd tried to assassinate her. The last one was only a boy, so she sent him back to the city without harming him.
"Your Highness." Ulrik said, when he entered the tent. She waved him closer. "We have not gotten any further in the siege. Your allies are turning their back on you. We...". She interrupted him. "I don't care. If anyone can help, call for them. My people are starving. We have to take the city." she said.

Aegarion, was a known noble in all matters he was said to be a "Tactial Genius.", but some of it was buff, and the other wasn't from the fallen house of Laerareonwhich blood traces to the founding of this damned city, and when his father dare called out against the Stadholder of the city their family was kicked out, their servants were all slaughtered down their lands burned to the ground, yet they had one thing "Loyalty."
Aegarion walked out of his tent on the other side of the camp that was just outside the city walls "M'lord." a guardsman saluted to him, as he nodded his head quickly putting on a quick shirt along with a Baroque coat to show his status, but most people outside of the city didn't know much about the man other then that he was a quite known man.
He then walked across the camp, and to the Empress's tent opening the flap with ease just as he saw Ulrik getting finished speaking with the Empress, he grabbed an apple from a fruit tray that was placed down, he noticed the Empress plans which seemed to him a little strange, just as Ulrik was done finished he then spoke up "We can't just call for anyone." He noted out at that idea "That is the reason why many turned their backs sadly." He then slowly went over to the tactical map placing his hand on a strange little farm "I say we send my men if I may "The Elites." across the walls, and by the city gates, which they shall opened, or.." He moved his hand and put a horse piece right near the tent "We can draw them out, send the Elite Forces, and smash their vanguard right away with archers, then their flank will try to outflank us which we'll send in the horses for a daring charge. However you have your own plan, I take it?"

(I decided to post just to keep it going)
Xianto moved towards the outside of the camp, he had been sent to kill Demonstrate or any other highly ranking members of her army. He had been sent to succeed where the others had not. He didn't think much of the task, why should he? He had been killing to protect the city for his whole life. One or two more lives would not make too much of a difference to him.
As he looked over the camp he pondered how best to make his move, all the while wondering how this assassination would go. Whether Demonstrate would beg for mercy, people sometimes did that. Or whether she would bargain with him. Others had done that too, not that it had worked but he liked to hear what they would offer before killing them. It wasn't that he enjoyed killing or toying with others that was just good at it and they were his orders. If nothing else Xianto was loyal to a fault.
He decided that first he would wait and take out tye first patrol that came near him, either to capture for information or to kill and obtain a disguise.

"Earlier that day, the young princess of the Wistalia kingdom was seen at the ball thrown by the palace, so why was she seen running outside of the city?" would probably become the question circulating later on." A young lady with platinum blonde hair huffed as she ran down the land which angled a bit, causing her to slow down from her usual speed just so she wouldn't trip. Heels were, and never will be good items to put on your feet when running.
You probably already want an answer for the previous question, the reason as to why Mai Akagami is running down a slope while looking haggard, is that she's found new information on the enemy, a detailed map of the castle which she'd drawn after knocking out her escort.
She'd quickly gotten out of the kingdom by using an escape tunnel she'd found and immediately started running towards camp. Who cares if my current appearance is unpleasant! At least I have info. she thought to her self as she ran past the guard who she simply waved to before slowing down a bit before reaching the tent.
Quickly, she fixed her hair and tied it back into a bun, smoothed her dress, and wiped the sweat off of her face before entering.
"I have new information."she announced, five maps in her hand featuring all parts of the castle, she was surprisingly able to draw them in the short period of time she had before leaving.

Fendir waits with his bow ready at the second to last line of defense in the castle. He could tell the fighting won't be coming near his area anytime. The battle might end before he even gets to shoot an arrow into anyone. Succumbing to boredom, he listens to the other men, both hired and city guardsmen chatting anxiously with each other. He should have asked for more pay if wasting his time would be the result of this trip. He could be making more money at a different city than this one.
He unconsciously rubs the scar over his eyes. How long must he wait before he gets his pay?
