### Chapter 2: Dianthe's fierce warrior prince, Antoinette

Antoinette had been strolling through the Enchanted Forest for a while when he suddenly saw a young girl. He quickly hid behind several bushes, observing the curious girl. After a while, he came out of the bushes ready for combat with his sword drawn. It was Iris Zira, the same human who had wandered in Dianthe with no permission a day before.

Only knowing the fact that she was a human, Antoinette claims he doesn't want any humans near Dianthe and his folk. Iris claims that she has no intention of harming anyone from Dianthe, and that she was only there to gaze upon the land's beauty.

He inspects Iris for any weapons on her person. Not finding any, Antoinette orders Iris to go back home before she gets herself in trouble, threatening that he won't be merciful if he catches her around Dianthe again.

He let's Iris off easy due to the fact that she appeared as just a clueless, human girl.

### Chapter 6: Just a girl

Antoinette had been walking back to the castle of Dianthe when his friends, Luka, Aria, and Minvera spotted him. Minerva called out to him, catching his attention. Once the four met, Aria claimed that the group needed to talk. Growing suspicious, Antoinette asks the three if something bad had happened. However, Luka assures him nothing serious was going on, telling Antoinette that they had been meeting up with a girl named Iris at Iridessa Waterfall frequently.

Not yet knowing her name, Antoinette doesn't suspect that the person Luka was referring to was the same human girl who he threatened a few days earlier. He asks Luka who Iris is, with Minerva chiming in and stating that she was the same girl who was wandering in Dianthe earlier. Antoinette immediately recalls threatening to kill her if he ever saw her again.

Aria states that the three were skeptical of Iris until she claimed that she was just exploring the forest. Antoinette is trustworthy of his friends and not Iris, and he is quick to scold them, asking them if they had made friends with Iris. Minerva states that Iris is just a girl and that she seems harmless and knows to keep her distance from Dianthe.

Angered, Antoinette ends the conversation by telling the trio to focus on keeping Dianthe safe and that the incident should only be kept between them. The three elves are left to find a way to convince Antoinette that Iris is a good person. What they didn't know was that Antoinette was determined to find Iris and successfully find out her true intentions for being so interested in Dianthe and it's inhabitants.
