Axel was scratching the back of his head for the tenth time before shaking it as he stared off at the spot Evanna ran off to earlier. A scowl was setting on his features while he gripped his axes harder. The princess knows what she is doing. He tried to convince himself.
Axel turned his head back after feeling someone's gaze on him. Ger was looking at Axel, who had unknowingly been shuffling on his feet. Axel was impatiently waiting for the princess to return, but he watched Ger point his arrow at Axel's feet, mouthing, "Come on." He looked down then stopped what he was doing before mouthing back,
"Sorry, needa piss."
Ger rolled his eyes and set his arrow back in a relaxed position across his bow. He looked back at the corridor, keeping guard. Even as he eyed the magnificence that was the elven palace, Ger still couldn't believe he was standing there. It wasn't long ago since he and Evanna were outside her balcony planning for this moment.
