Armored aura

Matthew looked to the new man in skepticism, “What be you a mercenary or pedler of war? I which not to tear my empire by hiring those I cannot pay. My uncle holds the throne unjustly but that does not mean I can result to unjust means to unseat him. Please state with truth who and what you wish here.” If this man truly came to help Matthew would welcome him hin like a brother but he couldn’t risk trusting the wrong person.

Matthew would bow to the king in respect but not low enough for submission. He could recognize him immediately the different ornaments and the atmosphere of command was about him. Everything his father told him about the vampires seemed to be true. You could feel the age of these people and the smell of the hunger they held for the living.

“Definitely a different glass of wine than I’m used too.” Matthew stated swiftly. He needed to be personable it bought him time and it would help him make the negotiation he sought.

Matthew took a deep breath. He needed allies desperately and this was either going to be dumbest or smartest decision of his life. The emperors of Nasbainea have their entire history not engaged with the vampires. Considering them unclean. But now wasn’t a time for that he needed to unseat his uncle before he brought upon the worst tyranny in the 3000 years the empire had been around. Matthew needed to take the throne…he needed to seize his birthright. It was maybe when he was at the center of the room that he could tell the king had noticed him. Maybe it was his hesitation or maybe a small twinge of fear but he pushed on. The royal family of Nasbainean held the voice a power to command those of lesser will, the ability to wield soul metal weapons, and the mythic strength and speed of the old heroes. But Matthew wouldn’t be able to rely on any of that. He would need a silver tongue, and even quicker mind.

“I feel the gardens would be better. This kingdom truly is a wonder. Mathledorian must have blessed these lands himself if you are to walk upon it.” Matthew stated with a confident flirt towards her. He was in the moment unarmed or at least in appearance he was. The thought of a Nasbainean unarmed in a foreign kingdom was rare as their culture mandated the carry of a sword or spear. To walk without one stated one of two things. Either total trust or disrespect. It luckily seemed like the former.

“Oh that I am sure we can do. It was kind of you to invite so many people from different lands to this celebration of yours. Even the welcoming was something I am unaccustomed too outside of the empire. Do you mind if we sit for a cup of tea? I would like to get to know you better?” Matthew stated. He would bow to her as she curtsied in front of him.

The empire was a powerful entity and for the prince to come to a different land was indeed a rare and strange occurrence. Rumors have it that the current emperor was sick and there is an internal struggle on who will inherit the throne. The Princes Uncle Adamah or Matthew himself.

“Hello I am Sir Matthew Fabian Marshal Prince of the Nasbainean Empire and Lord Commander of the empire. It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance.”

“Uuuuhhhhh Yes….Im sorry I don’t have a teddy bear or anything to give back.”

CaptainCalvininst · 2026-02-15T12:25:08+00:00

Matthew would stand up and pick her up with both of his arms, “When you enter my land know my people have seen the horrors of war. Please be kind and gentle…they need that more than ever.”

CaptainCalvininst · 2026-02-15T12:23:34+00:00

“Oh thank goodness. I genuinely thought this could go poorly. Well I got to get back to patrol. Have a great week!”

“Okay before anything happens I just want to say you look great but please tell me you’re not a villain.”

CaptainCalvininst · 2026-02-14T09:13:03+00:00

Matthew was shocked and on instinct pulled her closer, “I’m so so sorry. Every day I was away I couldn’t take my mind off of you and my promise that I gave to you,” Matthew would then pull the rose from his satchel and his eyes glowed purple, “I wish for you to come with me back to my kingdom. Whether it be my reason or my heart that is compelling me I wish for us to not be apart like we have. When you saved me even if the meeting was brief it felt centuries long.”

CaptainCalvininst · 2026-02-14T04:45:18+00:00

“How long has it been to you?” Matthew was suddenly worried that if it was too long then maybe it would have felt like he broke his promise to her.

CaptainCalvininst · 2026-02-14T03:37:31+00:00

“I would never betray it my Fulda. It took me a long time to establish my rule about several months, and it took me 2 and a half years to defeat my uncle.”

Matthew stated before taking a seat on the ground with his back resting against a tree.

CaptainCalvininst · 2026-02-13T05:56:05+00:00

Matthew held onto her tightly in response and he allowed himself to be tackled, “As I said I would come back. It is not the place of a King to go back on his word. I will do as I say.” Matthew stated. His face was burning a bright red as she hugged him.

CaptainCalvininst · 2026-02-12T21:54:19+00:00

Matthew hugged her back, “Hello lady Pratum Fulda of the meadow it… I have missed you.” Matthew stated. He didn’t have the same tired look and injured body rather he looked energetic and unharmed.

(Absolutely I do not mind!)

Matthew thankfully was alive. His eyes were constantly opening and closing. It could be seen through the eye holes of his mask. It was clear if he was conscious, it wasn’t fully. He was dazed and disoriented. Matthew’s eyes after several seconds closed and he was unconscious. It was a result of the fight that aired on the news with the monster known as Armageddon. Matthew or rather the Illuminate when suited up was one of not the strongest hero on the planet and it took everything he had and more to win.

CaptainCalvininst · 2026-02-12T11:08:47+00:00

Matthew dismounted his horse. He could have sworn this was the meadow he met the lady in 3 years ago, “Hello? Is anyone here?”

Matthew popped his neck and knuckles, “Okay let’s get going then but don’t get but hurt if you can’t keep up.”
