Prince Valerie

"Who goes there?" 

Two Faeries guards were on defense, the spear in their hands raised while their other hand was alight with their magic as soon as the portal opened in the courtyard, ready to attack the intruder. 

A figure stepped out as the portal closed off and they peered at him until recognition dawned on them and they let go of their weapon, shock on their faces. 

"Your Highness," They said, bowing their head as Valerie came into view, the princely aura he had intentionally subdued whenever Islinda was around was on display and they couldn't stand the power. 

Valerie had an impassive look as he walked through the palace ground, the guards making a way for him. This was not where he wanted to be. He had just portaled himself out of the human realm after meeting Islinda for the last time.
