Bomani felt as if a cold dagger had been pushed through his heart when she spoke and left the room. He was stunned into sitting there for a moment, then he got up, and as if in a trance, took the opal necklace from where she'd placed it, and put it into his pocket. Then he left her room and spotted her not far away. Steeling himself and blinking back tears, he clasped his hands behind his back and put on an expression of indifference, then followed her, catching up easily until he was one step behind her, looking not at her, but straight ahead. He was her bodyguard, after all. He didn't care if she hated him for it, but he had to stay. It was his job.

"Unfortunately, Milady, my order's don't come from you, they come from the Pharaoh." Bomani said, catching up with her easily. Even at a flat out run, he was sure he could catch her. "He gave me explicit instructions when he hired me. He said, and I quote, 'Bomani, protect my daughter, with your life if need be'. You live on, and thus, I still protect you." he said simply, still not looking at her. He felt as dead inside as he probably appeared on the outside. She had very nearly broken him, completely and utterly.
