"WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING?"[Elizabeth] Neidr looked over at her irate expression and shrugged his shoulders,

"cooking."[Neidr] Elizabeth stood up, not taking the time to dust off her white dress and two tattered dresses stood up next to her after a short chant. These were her old dresses that were shredded during the pre-test. She had taken the time to stitch them back up rather than get new ones. Fury was painted in her eyes as she demanded,

"Is it not enough to watch me and torment me in my room? Do I have to be followed to here too? Didn't my sister agree to leave me alone?"[Elizabeth] Behind them, Liam was shaken out of his meditation and he questioned seriously,

"Neidr you know what that woman has done to Lizzy. If you are here just to torment her, then I'll have to teach you a long-awaited lesson."[Liam]
'Well, this is getting slightly out of hand.' Neir sighed and said,

"Why all the accusations? Arrieta and I have cooked up some food for the four of us? Why don't we drop the hostilities and have a feast?"[Neidr]
"Like hell, I'll eat anything that wretch cooked up!"[Lizzy]

'Right, poisoned her, beat her to a pulp.' Neidr pressed his lips into a line and said,

"We'll take the first bite, would that settle you down?"[Neidr] Lizzy's eyebrows drew together and asked with haste,

"Did you poison the silverware?"[Lizzy] At this point, Neidr was wondering if he found a comrade in arms. How often do you find someone so suspicious of life?

'Or, I guess, me, eh same difference.' Neidr grabbed a spoon and licked it directly. Lizzy blinked and looked at him suspiciously, this time Liam chimed in,

"What do you want Neidr?"[Liam] Neidr turned around and looked at Liam innocently, saying,

"Would you believe me if I said I wanted to share a meal with my dear friends?"[Neidr] gently. Liam deadpanned and said,
"No."[Liam] Neidr crossed his arms and harrumphed, he turned his head away and said,

"What did I ever do to you?"[Neidr] To this, Liam actually pulled out a notebook and prepared to recite from it.

"Nevermind, the woods are filled with danger, isn't there safety in numbers?"[Neidr]

"Yep, four people are stronger than two!"[Arrieta]

"You dolts don't even have magic, how much help could you be? You're trying to mooch off of us like the rats you are."[Lizzy] Lizzy's face was filled with disdain as she spoke, and Liam face was colored with shock, he had never heard her speak this way to anyone. Just what did Arrieta do to inspire such wrath? He knew Arrieta had hurt Lizzy, but wasn't this reaction extreme from such a kind-hearted woman? Arrieta spat and retorted,

"For a magicless dolt, I sure kicked your ass."[Arrieta] Neidr smiled and held back a laugh, watching Elizabeth's face contort in rage once again.
"Everyone calm done!"[Liam] From Lizzy's expression, Liam was afraid she'd do something she would regret, so he took initiative to calm things down. Lizzy did indeed calm down, looking at Liam, Neidr and Arrieta were already calm, so you could say Liam's shout was effective.
"Neidr, you are here to propose an alliance, I believe we can accept that as long as Arrieta apologizes."[Liam]

"Like Hell! I did nothin' wrong!"[Arrieta] Arrieta pointed towards Lizzy and hollered,

"Tell that bitch to apologize to me instead!"[Arrieta] Liam threw a please help me gaze at Neidr who pretended to not see it, gazing at the leaves blow in the wind instead. Liam sighed and said,

"I'm sorry, but I can't agree without any compromise."[Liam] Lizzy looked at Liam sternly and said,

"Even if that lying bitch apologized, it wouldn't be worth anything."[Lizzy] Elizabeth pointed outwards and said authoritatively,

"GET OUT OF OUR CAMP NOW!"[Lizzy] Liam scrunched his brow and asked with some concern,

"Elizabeth, what exactly happened? Why are you acting this way? This isn't like you."[Liam] Arrieta chuckled and called out,

"That's right! Tell him! Tell him how much nothing I did to you! Tell him what you did in response!"[Arrieta] Liam brows drew closer together and Elizabeth hurriedly spat out,

"You already know, Liam! She stole my things, beat me, and forced me to sleep on the floor! She's a liar, she's good at spinning tales!"[Elizabeth] Liam nodded, but then Arrieta scoffed,

"If I was so good at spinning tales, I'd be the goddess cheered throughout the dorm, not you."[Arrieta] Arrieta stood up and said,

"I'd wager my life that this wicked creature did nothing but beat me, curse me, and threaten to throw me into the blue inferno of Rotham when I first appeared in her room! If I said a damn lie, then let Asla's cold corpse like hand drag me to the depths of hell!"[Arrieta] Liam's eyebrows shot up, no one would dare to take this lightly. Although nothing would happen if she lied, this was near the highest oath someone could take. If it was found to be untrue, she would be cast out by society. Liam finally turned over to Lizzy, whose face was cramped with anxiety, Liam's world was being turned upside down, he could only eek out,

"Lizzy?"[Liam] before he shut his mouth. Lizzy looked at him and said,
"She's a dirty liar! Who are you going to believe, her or me? We fought together in the pre-test where was she?"[Lizzy] Liam looked down in thought, that was true. He had been with Lizzy for so long, how could he doubt her so easily? Liam shook his head in shame. Then Neidr called out,

"Isn't this a simple thing? Arrieta has made an oath. Why doesn't Elizabeth make one in turn? If she's telling the truth, it won't harm her. Anyway, if she takes the oath, I promise to help you out with one thing. What do you say?" [Neidr] Liam nodded confidently, he looked over to Elizabeth and said,

"It won't cost us anything, Elizabeth?"[Liam] Lizzy looked away and said,
"I don't think we should give out oaths so haphazardly."[Lizzy]

"Lizzy."[Liam] Elizabeth looked at him and said,

"Why do I have to do it just for them?"[Elizabeth] Liam breathed out and said gently,

"Elizabeth, do it for me, will you?"[Liam] Lizzy's face was full of betrayal as she howled out,

"Liam, don't you trust me?"[Lizzy] Liam stood up and closed his eyes. He turned around and softly whispered,

"I want to."[Liam] as he began to walk away. There was a silence for what felt like forever before Elizabeth's voice called out,

"Wait! I admit it! I did it! I did it! But I had a reason! She's a spy! I swear she's a spy!"[Elizabeth]
