Lowering her sword a little when Ryan told her there was no danger present, not even from this strange creature, Ilona relaxed even a bit more.
"Ah, very well, good to know," she replied, sighing in relief afterwards. The girl spoke very proper, and almost in an old-fashioned manner. "While the effort is much appreciated, little friend of pink, I was very much awake." She looked over at Ryan again. "I'm Ilona of Arendelle, a princess of my kingdom. Worry yourself not with asking too many questions. Asking questions is a key to acquiring more knowledge, so my mother says. But anyhow, Lady Ryan, might I ask if you know where we are right now?" she questioned, her eyes moving to scan the room. Again, she had ended up in a foreign location, but this wasn't exactly a few occurrence for the girl...

Ryan quickly caught onto Ilona's odd manner of speaking, and needless to say; the ten-year-old had her curiosities on why, exactly, this was. Considering how proper her Uncle Macon was, though, it didn't make her uncomfortable at all. "Mhmm," Ryan hummed at Ilona's comment, a soft smile still gracing her lips. She did seem slightly confused by Ilona's claim of being awake, admittedly, but it probably shouldn't have been too big of a concern. "Oh.. Why were you pretending to be asleep?" she asked the other blonde, tilting her head.
Upon Ilona's introduction, Ryan's unnaturally bright eyes appeared to widen. A real princess? Wow, not only had the ten-year-old just gotten to leave her house and meet people outside from her family for the first time... But one of those people was a princess! "Wow, I've never met royalty before.." Ryan stated in obvious awe. For a moment, the young girl raked her mind. What was that tradition that people were supposed to do when they met royal families, again..? She couldn't quite remember, but she supposed that if it was too big a deal that she didn't do whatever it was, the princess would tell her.
There was a small pause, and Ryan couldn't help but smile wider. For whatever reason, being addressed as 'Lady Ryan' just felt.. Odd, to her. At the same time, it felt good; like she was really being taken seriously. "Pleasure to meet you, Princess Ilona," Ryan chimed, though she didn't seem to strive to go out of her way to show further respect. After all, this particular little girl treated everyone as equals; and showed them all respect. It wouldn't be surprising if by the end of this, the ten-year-old had idolized the princess.. And, well, probably everyone she met. Ryan was very social, respectful, curious and... Affectionate, after all. Especially the latter. "You can just call me Ryan, if you'd like," she told the princess. As for Ilona's question.. "No.. I don't. Nobody seems to know," she admitted. It didn't seem that the girl was too upset about this, though. Likely because she was too caught up in happiness with getting to meet new people.
