[open] peace is a bird who sings

[Isilya]

It is a complete surprise who comes to greet them, but rather instantly upon seeing the dappled grey mare a brilliant smile lights up her features. “Oh Ana! Hello! How wonderful to see you again! Where are your beautiful friends?” But before Ana might answer, she turns her attention to Ryatah and Aedan to explain - not wanting to exclude anyone. “She has the most exquisite creatures that she’s taking care of and keeping safe. I was quite lucky to get the chance to meet them recently!” Isilya’s eyes shine in complete adoration of Anaxarete and her kind heart - protecting those utterly unique creatures from a world that might seek to harm them. The shimmering mare still has no idea how close to death she had come. She is all too happy to follow Anaxarete as she leads them deeper into Pangea, and does so with a small spring in her step. Although Isilya enjoys making new friends, the sensation of running into those she has already met is a new and absolutely wonderful ones that makes her feel wonderful. As they walk, she explains why they are there. “We’re here from Tephra. I’ve recently been made Queen so I both wanted to introduce myself - which is redundant now that it’s you! - and we were hoping to find out who had taken over Pangea. Perhaps even discuss the possibility of a friendship between our two kingdoms.” The word ‘alliance’ isn’t one she knows to use, but she likes the way friendship feels when she says it. Truthfully, Isilya has absolutely no idea how any of this works. This is her first diplomatic mission and she finds her eyes straying to Ryatah - the elder of her two companions - wondering if the angelic mare might have anything else to add. It’s not that she doesn’t think Aedan would, of course! But she suspects, whether she is right or wrong, that this visit is as much of a learning experience for him as it is for her.
