Callista IV of Mervay
Altinyarat-Palace, Malakiard, Khanate of Khond
Their escorts broke off at the second gate as soon as the limo entered the private area, the remaining vehicles escorting her until they were at the main gate, six handmaidens and six agents of the Tabardariyya at the doors as Aurelia stood there, beautiful as always and certainly happy to see her. Soon the doors opened and from there she got out, an agent of the Tabardariyya opening the door for her and offering his hand to help her get out of the vehicle.
She smiled at the man while nodding her head on an thank you before she finally got out, her agents behind her with her baggage and theirs, which as as soon as out of the vehicle took a few off their hands and had it on her hands; she wasn't going to leave without making sure her friend was alright after all!! The photographer taking photos of this whole event and for sure this was all for the press to see later.
As soon as she got in front of the Princess, Agus noticed how Aurelia's loyal handmaiden had with her a tray with two glasses; she smiled to herself at amusement as to that being the first time they finally met the other, such little detail added a lot.
"It's very clear that you did made quite the show for what is an private visit." She said showing mock anger before laughing at that with an warm grin on her face as she looked at the Princess. "Just kidding..." The Queen sighed fondly before looking at Aurelia at the eyes.
"Long time no see, Aurelia."

The Prince chuckled at that while his attention never moved away from the duel; that would had saved everyone problems and yet presented an new can of them to deal. Who would had thought than a place the woman besides him and many others considered an temple of days past would show it's importance in geopolitics, influence and location at such moment? That was certainly an discussion for another time or later down the line. For now, the duel was all what caught his interest.
A battle which seemed with no clear victor even if the Princess was on the defensive for a moment, both of them on an stalemate until the Flower of Fenchu gained an advantage which switched the roles; it was all going well so far. The Ilkhana tried to ram the handle of her sabre against Dschamilla's armour, but the silver haired woman certainly gained her on that idea as she did the same trick, it all seemed to end as the Princess brought her blades down, yet; it didn't. Instead, she just let her guard open for her rival to recover and before everyone noticed, she had her rival looking at their spectators, eye contact was made between the two of them if he was right; that was all Aynur needed to gain again the control and be on the offensive as the two masters of the blade fought against each other for one last time before Dschamilla was stumbled slightly, but that was the killing blow as the Ilkhana ripped her feet and made her fall against the floor; an blade on the Princess throat.
Luci politely applauded as well, it was certainly; interesting to say the least. The Ilkhana of Megido asked at him, long aware of his presence between the small crowd; he grabbed a glass of water and had a sip before answering, nodding before saying his words.
"That is pretty much correct, Lady Aynur." The white haired Prince said. "She lost her focus the moment she lowered her guard and you made her see our presence; which in turn gave you the possibility to retake control and win the duel." He took the rest of the water before he handed it back to the tray, stepping foward to where the two women where with an slight smile.
"But; like the old proverb, we can all learn of our mistakes and we can improve upon them." He then looked at Dschamilla with a kind smile. "I have no doubt that she will learn of it quickly and correct it." The Prince finished before looking back at the Ilkhana and then back at the Princess; taking his hand to his heart he bowed in respect, a warm and polite smile on his face as he did so.
"It is a pleasure to meet you two." The Prince straightened up to then look at the two of them with an grin.
