the firestarters always get the burns
and the good guys never get the girl
It never really takes long to be noticed; perhaps her radiant white is magnified by the wings she now has, but then, she was never one to hide - not one to walk up to the front of a group either, however. She's perfectly fine in the middle, to be honest - but she's also glad for her position as ambassador, since it gives her freedom in her negotiations, instead of having to keep vague and first go back and forth to her leaders for every detail.
Anni seems still a little uncertain and to be honest, not much different from Briseis, or even herself long ago (though she had definitely been less skinny). Still, she seems to liven up with the idea of being allowed to stay here, and have something to eat, and be generally safe. Kagerus is a sight on her own, of course - but Ilma greets her with familiarity and she senses more than notices, that Anni can hold on to such behaviour, steady herself as it were. "Still no sickness for me, though I don't know how long that will hold." she offers and smiles at the both of them. Her smile falters at what she has to tell Kagerus next. "It's... empty. Everyone is hiding, it seems, except for perhaps a few brave or, already-ill souls. And some perhaps who love the emptiness." She shakes her head.
The spotted mare asks about the new, black visitor, and Ilma simply dips her head to Anninux. The mare can introduce herself properly, Ilma notices. Perhaps in due time she'd rather like to join their ranks, but for now there are other priorities. "Anni is one of those in need of a home and some protection, and... ah, some food too I think." she grins a bit, thinking Kag will surely be able to provide that. It's an understatement, of course, but in time, Ilma is quite sure that the arabian mare will put on some healthy weight.
