I hear foot steps coming closer. I begin to try to run before being grabbed by some of the village people. “H-Hey!!” I yell out. I try to struggle, but then I stop in fear..
They were here…
They were here and they all looked very, very unhappy.
Especially Harbinger Number 11, Tartaglia.
“Well, well, well, Thank you towns people for, keeping her here. We shall take it from here.” he says, malicious intent in his voice. I was shoved forward by the two people who grabbed me. I stumble to the cold floor, and I sit up.
Tartaglia switches to his swords, and started to walk forward to me. I sat there, in fear. “Please…Don’t hurt me.” He lifts up his swords, and I close my eyes tight…waiting for him to strike..
Waiting for him to kill me…
….

Nothing.
Nothing happened.
I slowly open my eyes to look at him. He was stopped, one of his water swords raised, but a shocked look on his face.
“You…” he says, his voice almost in full disbelief.
“Y..Yes..?” I say, staring at him, voice small and in pure fear. He quickly goes out of his sword and kneels. I can hear gasps everywhere.
“Your Holiness, I am so sorry for how this village has treated you.” He says. I was in utter disbelief. I looks around to everyone, who also was in disbelief, before looking back at the ginger.
“Uh…I’m..very, very confused.” I say. I could tell all the other Fatui Skirmish and Cicin and just..the lower members in general, we’re in shock. Tartaglia stands up, before holding out his hand. I slowly take it, as he helps me up.
“Your Holiness, we had thought you were an imposter, and we’re going to kill you. I apologize on the behalf of the Fatui for this fact. Please know that we did not mean to harm you.” He says.
“Alright..?” I was very confused, as I just slowly nod. I was still shivering at this point. He seemed to notice this.
“Your Holiness, shall I lend you my coat? This cold I can handle, plus the village is not too far away from the base.” He asks me.
“No, I’m fine. I’ll be okay, I’d rather you keep it.” I say, still shivering. He doesn’t argue, but immediately starts bringing me to the base.
“We’ll get you some much warmer attire at the base then, Your Holiness.” He says, as all the Fatui soldiers follow behind him and me.
What…
What just happened..?
