[open] i was reminiscing just the other day

[Altissima]

Although there had been little doubt to Altissima that they would be allowed to stay, there is still relief in getting confirmation over that fact. She can see why Tarian’s plan of asking saved trouble further down the line. At least now they knew for sure, and would not need to wait for the day when they might be told otherwise. It helps add some more genuine warmth to her expression, her eyes becoming a brighter shade of violet with the subtle shift in her mood. “Thank you.” Casimira goes on, explaining that another from Loess had come to Tephra. In this, Altissima defers to Tarian, her gaze shifting to him. She didn't doubt that he would want to find the other members of Loess, but whether he had heard anything in particular since they became wanderers, she was not sure. The names are familiar to her, but that is where her knowledge of them ends. She never had much interest in keeping track of the whereabouts of the other citizens of Loess. It was hard enough sometimes just keeping track of their two children as they grew up. And now with the members of Loess and its territories scattered across Beqanna, or lost to the sea, finding a single pair of them seemed an impossible task.
