so you wanna play with magic?
The girl accepts. Of course she does; Camrynn had known she would even before she approached. She'd known that Rhynn was exactly the kind of creature that wants everything she has to offer (and more). And while to some that kind of ambition is (very rightly) considered untrustworthy, none of that matters to Cam. There's no such thing as untrustworthy when you can peel apart a horse's mind like a banana, reading everything. Sure, a few minds in the world are closed to her, but what's a detail like that in comparison to all of the minds that are laid bare, wide open before her magic?
She accepts, and a small patch of skin behind her left elbow whirls into itself, a nebula swirl of fur. Rhynn would feel a tickle of magic, like a brush of cold air, just ever so slightly shocking. And when it passes, the little whirl of fur will look ever so slightly different than before. This is Camrynn's own version of the dark mark, the thing she'll use to call them all together (or some of them together, depending on her need) whenever she wants them. To most regular horses who don't know what they're looking for it will appear as nothing more than one of the many whorls of fur that every horse has. But to those who do know, it will be obvious that it is so much more.
She listens to Rhynn's questions, letting the girl speak her peace before she starts to answer. the questions are all fair, all completely valid, and she doesn't mind any of them. "You can call me…The Queen Illuminate. At least for now. I might change that later." her wry smile is almost blindingly bright. She knows that Rhynn knows any name she gives is fake, so why even try to pretend? It's a fitting name for what she is, so impossibly bright, and yet so impossibly dark.
"I'd recommend the Valley or the Amazons. Both places could be very interesting for a mare like yourself, although I think the Valley might appreciate your talents a little bit more. You will be equally useful to me in either place." She pauses for a moment. "And if you try one and decide you dislike it, I won't hold it against you should you switch. As I said, you may live wherever you like. You asked my suggestion, and so I am suggesting." her voice-of-many-voices is rich, drawn out, almost playing with the words.
She saves the best answer for last, much as Rhynn had saved the best question for last. As to your ability…" She smiles again. "I know what I'd like to give you, but before I do that...do you have any requests?"
Let it never be said that she is not generous.

co-queen of the deserts, magical, mother of badassery
Tins, my dear, can you PM me with a detailed description of what her darkness manip does? In particular, to what extent can she use it for strategic/tactical purposes/as a weapon? Cause I have an idea of a thing, but it depends on your answer to that >_>
