"What is your name?" Nimue asks as she sits on the throne with three fey standing in front of her


None of the fey say anything and just look at each other in confusion


"Answer her" Arthur says angrily as he watches the fey 


"Bu'luf" the fey that had killed an innocent boy says 


"You're aware that the red paladins took this city first, are you not? and that non Christians were singled out, hung on stakes and burned to death. As a result, many of Grimaires people painted crosses on their doors to protect their families" Nimue says angrily as she stares at the three fey with fire in her dark blue eyes 


"the young have war blood" the oldest fey who stood in the middle said as he raised his arms as if to give them an excuse for killing the man blood "after battle they... they..."


he turns to the fey on the left of him who mutters to him in the language of their people and the fey on the side who obviously knew English a lot better than the other two, turns back to face Nimue and continues the sentence for the other man "after battle the blood is still hot and they get into fights"


"then go back to your caves, because you are animals with no place in the civilised world" The king says in disgust as he looks at the fey that stood in the middle of the room. The youngest fey, the one who had killed the boy, went and charged for the king but the other fey quickly held him back and nimue reached for her sword and pulled it out


"Enough" Nimue yells angrily and the guards shove the fey away from the king "Bring him forward"


Arthur brings the young fey man forward and the man angrily wrips his arm out of arthurs grip and then walks forward by himself and Nimue steps towards him


"I made it clear that when we took this city, no humankind were to be harmed. It was not a request, but a command from your queen "what is on your hands" 


The fey put his hands up and begins to look at the red splatters that contrasted against his pale skin "man blood"


"You defied me" Nimue says angrily 


"You are not my queen, the weeping warrior is my queen" The man replies and this angers NImue, she felt the rage and jealousy flow through her, how were there fey that still saw Adira as their queen even though she held the sword of the first kings


Nimue swung the sword around and cut off the mans hands quickly and he fell to the ground in pain as he looked up at her and she held the sword up near his head but backed away 


"defy your queen again and i will have your head" Nimue says angrily and the guards go to take away the injured fey while the oldest one stroms towards nimue but nimue holds the edge of the blade right up into his face 


"Stay back" Nimue growls angrily and the fe just looks at her with an annoyed yet fearfully expression on his face
