He had already changed out of his cloak and mask, so at least he got to freak out in his casual attire. He was still a little shaken from his encounter with the assassin the night before, and surely Zelda had heard about it, but he felt the need to tell her himself. Of course, he might have to leave out the tidbit where he let the culprit escape.
All he had to do was wait for her arrival. In the meantime, he started thinking of how he would word everything, but his thoughts ended up being too clouded to do so. He looked out the window, gazing at the setting sun as a way to pass the time. Right out the window. Oh god, the window! The castle was loaded with windows! What if another assassin broke into one! This is awful! ;oAo
The Sheikah shook his head for a second or two, trying to snap out of his paranoid internal rant. Surely the princess wasn't in terrible danger; he knows that she could hold her own in a fight. But what if the assassin strikes in an assassin-y way, like poisoning her food? And what about the other officials in the castle? One of them was already killed! Who knows how long it would be before another was targeted. Settle down, Cameo. There's no point in aimlessly worrying. You just need to wait until Zelda gets here, then everything will be alright. At least, that's what he told himself as he silently paced around the room.

So yes, the assassin had indeed slipped her notice. It occurred to her from time to time that attempts would be made on her life, but the Princess had faith in her caretakers; even if the would-be killer slipped through that line of defense, Zelda was more than capable of taking care of herself. She had learned from the best, after all.
But things had been relatively peaceful as of late, so when Zelda walked into her room, she was rather startled to see one of her caretakers pacing about.
"Cameo?" she asked, her brow creasing slightly. "Is something wrong?"[/style] |

Yes, of course! Everything is wrong! All of it! We need to get you out of here! We'll move you far into the mountains where you're out of harms way. Then we'll hire a double to live here, and they can get assassinated if need be. Obviously he wasn't going to say any of that; the last thing he needed was Zelda thinking he was mental.
The boy stopped pacing and took a moment to straighten himself out before speaking up. "But of course, princess. Have you not heard? An official residing in the castle named Morrigam has been killed. That's not the important part though, the main problem is that it proves how low our defenses have become. I'm here to request that we start taking more safety precautions." He didn't sound very stressed while talking about Morrigam's death. In all honesty, he didn't know the man, and his demise didn't matter all that much to him. His main concern was an assassin could just break into the castle whenever they felt like it and do whatever they wanted.

The crease in her brow grew deeper as Cameo explained the situation, and her lips twisted into the slightest of frowns. One of the nobles had been killed. This was problematic. Zelda wasn't overtly worried for her own safety; she felt confident that she could take care of herself, after all. No, the true problem lay in that more and more people would dare to attempt breaking into the castle now that someone already had.
"Was the culprit apprehended?" she asked the caretaker, sitting in an armchair and gesturing for Cameo to do the same. She had a feeling that the killer had escaped, but it would be best for her young guard to tell her himself. "And more importantly, do you know how he entered the castle?"

"I apologize, Zelda. The assassin fled the castle and I was the one who allowed him to do so." He looked to the floor, a little ashamed of himself. "He was highly skilled, and the guards were quickly making an approach. I had to let him escape to avoid casualties. He surely would have used the guards' presence to his advantage. I'm sorry." His head hung low even after finishing his explanation. It goes without saying that he silently rejected her offer to sit down.
"I currently have guards searching the castle for a point of entry. The main group is looking in the room where Morrigam was killed, but many others are searching the surrounding rooms. I guarantee you'll be informed by noon tomorrow." At least he had some good news to tell the princess; that put him at ease a bit. He let out a sigh and scratched the back of his head, most likely waiting for some form of scolding or punishment.[/style][STYLE=border:2px solid #494949;background:#efefef;padding:3px;font-size:9px;text-align:center;color:#4c4c4c;margin-top:4px;]tags Zelda credit table by greyson of btn notes TOAST <3[/style] |

"It's quite alright, Cameo," she told the Sheikah, her smile gentle despite her concern. "You did the right thing. The fewer casualties, the better, and we shall be better prepared should the assassin attempt to enter the castle again."
Zelda nodded in approval. It was a wide area to search, to be sure, but they were staying on top of it. She was proud, if nothing else; truly, her guards were the best. "Excellent," she said, nodding again. "Please notify me as soon as you discover anything."
What also worried her was Cameo's report of the assassin's skill. She wasn't so naive as to think that assassins couldn't use magic, but most of those she had indirectly encountered in the past were physical fighters, not magical; they killed with daggers and poison. What magic they did have usually only enhanced their physical attributes, but she would like to gather more information. "You fought this assassin, yes? Did you happen to note his abilities, if he used magic at all?"

Enough to plop down in the chair and let out a dejected sigh in an almost comedic fashion. The fight replayed in his mind as he prepared to tell Zelda about the attacker's fighting style. "Well, I tried to fight him, but it was more of a chase." He wouldn't delve further into the definition of his encounter, thinking that it may bore Zelda a bit.
"He was skilled with the sword, but it was his speed that was difficult to deal with. His attacks are swift, but they can be blocked and deflected if you have decently quick reflexes." Perhaps he was boasting about his Sheikah heritage, but he felt he needed to state it regardless. "The main things the assassin had going for him were his bombs; bomb arrows and explosive smoke bombs. Hell, he might even have more uses than that, but those were the only two I've seen. Oh, I apologize, I appear to be dancing around your question." Cameo really hated the damn bombs, so it was rather easy to rant about them.
The boy cleared his throat before continuing. "I didn't see anything in terms of magic, but it did seem that he was holding back a bit in our fight. The only thing that he might use magic-wise is an ability that speeds up his attacks, but I'm not sure if that's the kind of magic you're asking about." For some reason he was able to ramble on and on while conversing with the princess. Well, at least this was informative rambling.[/style][STYLE=border:2px solid #494949;background:#efefef;padding:3px;font-size:9px;text-align:center;color:#4c4c4c;margin-top:4px;]tags Zelda credit table by greyson of btn notes ♫[/style] |
