My Knight Rescuer is a Jerk! So Why should I ignore the Prince?

"Always remember, no matter how much a fae may seem like they experience emotions, no matter how human like a fae may behave...a fae can never be a human." The Keybearer. A young maiden from another world foretold by ancient prophesy, destined to collect the seven keys and save the world. Surely that's the kind of story that finds some plucky high schooler dreaming of adventure and whisks them off to find their true love, right? Overworked salary women like Emily have long passed the point where such fantasies can come true, and even if they did, it's not like she'd know the first thing about what to do. ...So of course, nobody even bothered to ask her before dropping her into an entirely new world full of magic and danger. Like the three hungry orcs eyeing her as soon as she wakes up. "What do you mean I can sense the keys if I use magic?! What magic?!" If Emily could, she'd have immediately issued a rejection letter, but unfortunately, the only way back is to finish her quest somehow. But it's not all danger and confusion. The knight who rushed into battle to save her is charming and kind and gorgeous, and the beautiful and lonely prince has a soft and kind smile only for her. If everyone she meets along the way is like them... Well. It can't be that bad, right? "...--I'VE BEEN KIDNAPPED BY A PAINTING?!"

Seventy-Ninth

Two days.

In two days the summit would officially conclude.

According to Adrien, if the parties couldn't come to an agreement of any kind it was possible for it to drag on.

However, due to the fact that King Gregor himself was involved in the negotiations - not to mention Prince Adrien and the leaders of several other small nations who could not spare delegates - it would be frowned upon.

Reasonably, there would be great pressure to come to some agreement or another by the end of the two days rather than drag it on.

As things stood, they were the moving party, and so 'any kind of agreement' would likely be good for them.

Honestly...though...

The sooner the summit was over, the better. If she had the power to just agree to anything just to make it end...she'd be sorely tempted to, no matter what the terms might be. It was probably for the best, then, that she didn't get to decide.
