Let it be enough to reach the truth that lies, across this new divide
It was a sort of shock that settled over her in the wake of the meeting at the field. Even as they walked together Aranea had a hard time believing that she had succeeded. There was pride, of course, alive and fluttering in her chest, but there was also a kind of awe that she couldn't just ignore. She, without any words, had somehow managed to encourage this lovely mare to join her kingdom. Tephra was beautiful and she was certain that Sloene would be happy with her choice, but she could hardly believe that she was coming even still.
Of course, it would have likely been an entirely different outcome if Sloene hadn't already visited ALL of the kingdoms before.
The happiness she sensed from her companion when they DID reach Tephra made her smile nonetheless. Aranea snorted in agreement and bobbed her head as they paused to take in the view. On the journey back she had decided that she would take Sloene to meet Magnus - he would be able to introduce her, at least, and would be able to answer any further questions that the newest Tephra member had. With this in mind she guided Sloene towards where the King often was and hoped that they would have luck finding him.
As they walked in she was able to bob her head in answer to question one - she had been here since the begining, after all - and again in response to number two. While Tephra had differences it was not the first kingdom to run on a three caste system. It was organized like many Kingdoms had been in the past, and Aranea quickened her pace, eager to introduce her to Magnus so that he might explain that more thoroughly.
As they reached a more central area of the kingdom Aranea snorted again and blew out a few breaths as loudly as she could - it wasn't possible for her to whinny or nicker or call him in any true vocal way, but surely by now Magnus knew her sounds and would come if he was near enough to hear them...
