"Forgive me, Your Highness, it wasn't my intention to--" Guy managed to cut himself off before he sputtered out any more apologies. With a sigh, he raised his hands in a gesture of defeat and compliance.

"Calling it a 'kidnapping' might be oversimplifying things a bit... Word is Van's being called away on Order business, so he agreed to spar with Luke in the courtyard for as long as he wanted to make up for it. And you know Luke. He couldn't pass up the chance."

Checking to see how the princess was faring so far, Guy folded his arms slowly and continued, recalling the scene.

"It was maybe ten minutes into their training session that old Pere and I heard singing. The song must have been a fonic arte of some kind, because by that point the guards were asleep at their posts and it was all Pere or I could do to stay awake. That was when the young woman showed up. To be honest, she didn't seem interested in anyone but the Dorian General and immediately went after him. In fact, it seemed very much like they knew each other somehow.

"Anyhow, it was during her attack on Van that Luke jumped in. When Luke's sword clashed with the woman's staff, it started a fonic reaction. They stood there bearing down on one another and then suddenly a bright burst of light engulfed them, like a meteor taking off. When the light faded, both Luke and the woman had vanished."

Guy lowered his head, guilt written plainly on his face. "The spell wore off a moment later. But by then they were gone. I...couldn't even do anything to stop it..."
