I haven't shown interest in the history of what seems like petty conflict.

The statement - delivered without any specific emotion - causes me to laugh dryly, the sound reverberating through my chest as we walk through my kingdom. Perhaps I have thought too highly of myself, and spoken too much for the liking of the quiet roan mare; but I allow the moment to pass into silence just as she does, knowing that to elaborate would definitely make me out to be an annoyance.

I shake my shoulders gently as we wander, hoping to relieve some of the social anxiety drifting around us. I barely hear her when she whispers something of an agreement; but it is in the end neither of our choices whether or not someone approaches.

Still, I am grateful when one does.

Kensa greets me first, and I reach out to gently exchange breath with her. "Hello, Ambassador." The title sounds fitting as I cast it into the air between us; a mischievous smile shows momentarily on my mutilated face, but it passes just as quickly when we pull back from one another. Stepping away, I allow the two to greet each other; it is a quiet affair, one that I have more appreciation for than actual skill, all things considered.

"If you'll excuse me," I murmur with a small step forward, eyes going from Kensa to Brine, "I must be away on some business." It is not a lie - I am off to a kingdom to establish our relation after a recent change in rulership. But I also see that now is a good time for me to slip off, as Brine has found someone who may perhaps give her solace in her time of need.

"I hope you have a pleasant day."

@[Kensa] @[Briseis] - just a note to lurking faeries that this thread began pre-contagion!
also, jet - there is a kingdom meeting posted in the Cove which Brine would know about IC, so in the current timeline, she should know about the sickness and have chosen whether to live in the safety of the cove or in her original/somewhat dangerous home, hyaline.
