Remilia gave a small smile at Ahelissa when she joked about eating the book. She continued to listen to Lidia, her eyebrows raising in interest. A long lost city? She thought with wonder. She could finally get away from her arranged life at this wretched place. She wouldn't have to marry some sixty year old man at all.
Emrys
Emrys noticed how Averill reacted, and put a hand on his shoulder.
"You aren't your father, and never will be in my eyes." She whispered quietly, her eyes staring straight ahead at Lidia. Her eyes wandered to the floor as she felt a pang of anxiety hit her stomach like a ton of bricks. It was now or never, right? She shakily stood up, her hands shaking from her nerves. She silently willed them to stop as she looked at Lidia in the eyes.
"Your majest-" She caught herself, knowing Lidia didn't like titles that much. "Lidia, there's something I must confess to before we start our plan. I am not who I claim to be."
Emrys took a breath before she continued on. "My real name is Emrys Vi Allurith the 2nd. As proof of my identity..." Emrys paused and rolled her sleeve up, making sure her nice clothes weren't going to be ruined by what she did next. She held her arm palm down, and suddenly a blade pierced through her skin at the base of her knuckles, blood trickling down her arm. "Only an Alluri can do this. I apologize for deceiving you, I had to make sure you were nothing like your father."
Amias
Amias listened quietly, his eyes gleaming a little as he listened to the princess's plan. He stiffened ever so slightly when Lidia said his name, but he kept a level and calm appearance. In fact, he had wondered about the knights lately. He looked down, his brows furrowed slightly.
"I would suggest being very careful with Ekon, as well as with the soldiers and knights. They are susceptible to bribes, and Ekon is close with your father. He is always paying attention to details." He warned, his mouth curved into a small frown. "If Kallin Vernue finds out that some of his comrades are helping you, he'll rat it out to Ekon." He only knew the last bit because Kallin had thrown him under the bus with Ekon multiple times when he was a child trying to escape the castle.
Amias seemed to flinch when Emrys revealed herself, his mouth gaped open slightly and his face in complete shock. Last he had known, the princess was slaughtered along with her family.

The princess watched, slowly her face curved into an excited smile. She jumped down from the table, her dress folding awkwardly around her. She studied her hands. "Oh my...", The girl muttered, putting a hand over her mouth. "I don't want you to deceive me again, but I'm so happy that I have another princess on our side, and a powerful one at that. I hope we can be friends, Emrys. I promise the only thing I have in common with my father is that we share the same kin."

The words Emrys had told him reasure him slightly, at least one person had bother to see past the metaphorical coat of darkness and hate his father had placed on him for years now.
Of course he wasn't surprise by what she explained next, he however did stare at her at her bleeding hand for a bit, silently hoping that she woudn't keep the hole of her claw open long enough for one of his father's followers to notice. He stand up and went closer to the two princesse, holding a tissue to Emrys with a smile. " I woudn't want you to stain yourself after that big reveal."

Emrys gave a small nod, letting herself relax a little. She blew her bangs out of her face, giving a smile.
"No more lies from me, I promise. I hate liars and it killed me to be one. I have no doubt we can be friends, but I do warn everyone in this room-" She paused, her eyes suddenly giving a bone chilling and icy look as she turned towards everyone in the room. "If I find one of you ever dares to even speak of betraying me, I will personally deal with you in a heartbeat."
In that moment, her voice was different, and much more commanding than she had acted before. Her eyes softened as she turned to Averill, smiling awkwardly.
"Thank you, my skin heals quickly, it should already stop bleeding." She took the tissue, dabbing her arm and hand to clean the blood. She pulled the blades back into her skin, keeping the napkin over the slits in her knuckles to slow the bleeding. "Lidia, Averill, you have my full trust and I will do whatever it takes to help you. My people will as well."
Amias was still in a bit of shock, before he whispered quietly to Riften. "I will be back in a few seconds."
He walked up to Emrys, standing there for a moment to stare at her. He suddenly went on a knee, bowing to her with his head pointed at the floor.
"Alurrith yemai quis." For the first time in ten years, Amias spoke the native tongue of his home country. He looked up at her with a purely happy expression as he repeated it. "Allurith welcomes you home."

Lidia nodded, her eyes welcoming and happy. When Emrys made her announcement she stared, somewhat starry-eyed, in awe of being in the presence of someone who could take control quickly.
She stepped to the side when her brother came over, still smiling softly. "Here, let me help.", Lidia took the cloths and tied them around her hand, making sure they were well hidden. She removed her gloves, showing her callased and scarred hands. She carefully slipped the gloves over her hands, softly humming. Lidia bowed, murmuring her appreciation.
Lidia watched as Amias bowed in front of his princess. Her kind smile widening. She heled her clasped hands close to her face, happy for them.
Riften nodded quietly. Eyes widening as he spoke. He felt a pang of jealousy seeing his expression e had when he was looking at the princess. But he brushed it off, happier for him then jealous. He looked down at his feet, feeling awkward about watching them.

Ahelissa's jaw hung open even wider, as she had never seen anything like this before, and she just stared, speechless. She finally managed to croak out a question. "I- I...... that's her bone?! Wha- how?" She turned toward Remilia for answers. This was really happening. They had two living weapons on their side to fight for freedom. Freed. The word bounced around Ahelissa's head and her heart stirred with joy. Freedom was closer than she thought. We will be free soon, very soon.
