Ronnie listened attentively and was mildly amused that he wasn't the only one to refuse outright and unequivocally loyalty to Tyran capital. Perhaps others had their doubts about the queen, especially considering how things ended at the coronation. The queen was impressive until the game master showed up. She didn't help with anything. It didn't help she was a virtual unknown and although she gave everyone a vague explanation how she rose the power, there was still too many blanks to be filled. The main one was how does she end up from randomly spawning from Tyran to meeting the Vargos, the Gods, to somehow facilitating some treaty presumably, to being elected as queen.
When you consider all that it wasn't surprising that most was hesitant about just pledging their allegiance to Tyran. There was amazing potential with this queen, but perhaps maybe too much, she seemed somewhat too perfect in her mannerisms. It would be interesting if the question she posed was more to pull out personality as opposed to the direct content of their choice. He perceives she would want the right personality as opposed to questionable loyalty.
There was one thing that angered him and that was that monster Wulv. He was echoing more or less the same opinion as him. He didn't like the idea that him and that monster thought similar. Ronnie would finally come to notice Vici arrival as she was non verbally chastising everyone for not agreeing to be loyal 100%. She seemed to be trying to explain how putting Tyran capital first would benefit everyone, but it was lost on Ronnie who looked at her with questioning eyes. His eyes would give off the vibe of why she was there and trying to be Protea's spokes person. Ronnie wondered if she was Protea personal servant or something, it would make sense, Ronnie spoke, “why is the queen's servant interrupting the meeting?”
Ronnie thought servants were suppose to know there place, but obviously she didn't. What made things worst was that Manic finally decided to put his adult pants on (figuratively) and speak with some poise. Ronnie didn't like the fact that he felt that he had a right to criticize everyone else choice, even though he came in potentially breaking every code of conduct in the book. Ronnie however would not respond to him as Cairogen took charge in attempt to put Manic in his place. Ronnie looks over to Orisimark who came in late and felt his first order of business was to request a recap and question the queen who was giving him a question.

Listening to all as X_Orisimark_D entered late, her eyes first moved over to Ronnie where he could finally see a bit of chaotic shimmer in her coral tone. Her face didn't change though as she kept the polite political smile on. "Wherever I go, Vici is allowed. That will never change. Don't forget that, and please remember to be respectful to fellow people of my court." She recapped a bit of what she had already said to Orisimark, the important parts and the parts that related to his question in particular. Then she elaborated more. "I believe it is reasonable that those on my council will gain the benefit of me working toward establishing strong and protected trade routes to your homelands outside the Capital. So long as it does not put the Capital in jeopardy, alliances could also be considered, and we could lend aid when you are in need. My court is aligned with the Tyran Army, who's purpose is to guard the lands... not just the Capital. So you would have direct connection to communicate with them through me as well. I would say that is quite a perk." Looking to everyone now she shrugged softly in defeat. "I expected some to say no, that is fine by me. Just as I will put my Capital first, those of you who have homelands to protect naturally will put yours first as well. I respect that. Though I admit," she looked to Manic and gave an inappropriate playful wink his way, "having full loyalty is quite a bit more appealing." She exhaled softly then and took a moment to gather her thoughts so she could speak what she wanted to say properly. "I appreciate you all coming today to ask your questions and to listen to my proposals. If by now my actions have lead you to not trust me however, I ask you to now leave. I will not have anyone on my council who feel they cannot trust me. For I... will be putting all my trust into those who advise me. My life, and my kingdom, will be in your hands as you help guide me to make the right decisions. If there is no trust, then you cannot advise me properly. However if you feel deep down that you can learn to trust me and not doubt my loyalty to Tyran... then I would be happy to have you on my Council." Looking at all of them, she waited patiently for their response on leaving, or staying. Staying would not lock them into being on the council, but it would at least show they wanted it. Finally she pulled back the scroll that Vici had drawn and trailed a finger along it as she examined it with a faint, loving smile. If anyone were to pay attention to her at that moment, they would see that Vici was not just a "servant" of the Queen, but something much more personal. Family perhaps. And the Queen was very fond of her, which meant having her there put the Queen at ease. |

Ronnie eyebrow arch a bit at the response of the queen, even though she hid it in her posture and her speech, Ronnie could tell that it deeply upset-ted her with how he responded to Vici interruption of the meeting. Ronnie didn't even question why she was there, just why was she involving herself in the meeting without being instructed to do so. Ronnie would simply smile with interest and make a polite hand gesture and would say, “yes your majesty.”
Ronnie didn't have to wait to the end to know that Vici was very important to her. She has been hanging around her since the coronation with affection. Not once did Protea suggest anything about boundaries. She always seemed her happiest and most confident when that creature was around. Ronnie wonders if she was spawned from Protea or was made from whatever that spawned her. Ronnie wasn't too confident in this theory as Protea stated at the coronation that she was the only her, meaning no offspring or siblings, but who knows.
Ronnie got more insight on her when she revealed her disappointment that people was telling her no, but she seemed to expected it to some degree. Perhaps this was one of the reasons she would reach out to others to find wise people to council her that would trust in her leadership. Ronnie did find her to be a bit naive that she would possibly believe that just because someone say there would be loyal does not mean they would be loyal.
Ronnie, how ever liked this queen and believed if nothing else that she could be good for Tyran. Ronnie would rise to his feet from his chair giving the initial impression he was going to leave, but he placed both of his hands on the table, “Queen, like I said I won't lie to you, I do not fully trust you yet, but I find you interesting. You have all the makings to make a great queen for Tyran. I have something else for you and that is respect. I don't respect to many people, even in my own family. Regardless if you choose me as a Breteuil representative and council, I promise to give you council that would not just benefit your home, but Tyran as a whole. If you want to know why I would do such a thing it is simple, You reached out to the Breteuil family. That is something no other Royalty has ever done. We aren't allies to Tyran capital, which meant you had zero incentive or reasoning to invite me to this meeting. You could have easily written us off as there would be no reason for you to trust us, that alone regardless of my trust level at the moment would be enough for me to be devoted. I am sure if I see more of your leadership, my trust in your vision would grow in time. Regardless if you choose us or not, I would hope we could discuss potential trading routes and/or alliances. With that in mind I have one more question.

She bowed her head slightly to Ronnie at his speech and indicated that he was welcome to ask her more questions, as they all were. The meeting was only over when they were ready for it to be, she had nothing but time. Her fingers pushed the scroll back out to the table for others to examine a second time if they wished.

Ronnie smiled as she agreed to listen to more of his questions. Ronnie thought it was about time to give her a more challenging question. Ronnie lifts his hands upwards with palms facing the ceiling. Ronnie first lifts his left hand, “This is your most precious person. Ronnie brings his left hand down and brings his right hand up, “This is your kingdom.” If you came to a situation where you would have to choose between the life of your kingdom or your precious person or your kingdom, what would your choice be . By the way there is no way to swap places with your precious person as they are the only one can avoid the loss of lives of many people of your kingdom. Ronnie knew she could either say yes, no or try a clever attempt at dodging the question. Ronnie decides to adds more, “Oh yeah and your council is not available at the time the decision needs to be made, so it will be all on you, what do you decide to do?”

Manic had finished his speech but was still standing up, his eyes shifting to Cairogen. He laughed a bit as it seemed the man thought he had gotten the better of him with that question. “If my beloved wife or daughter ever turned into something that was at risk of destroying Tyran on a whole then I would admittedly try to turn her back to herself first before just outright killing her it is true. However should all attempts to change her back fail and the threat remain I would kill my wife myself if necessary. As I am sure my wife would do to me if I ever became such a threat myself” he smiled. With that question answered he spun on his heels to face the late comer and giving him a bow.
“Greetings and welcome to the circus.” he half teased. Then blinked at Orisimark’s questions. “I think the point here is not what she can do for us … umm I’m sorry but I didn’t catch your name” he admitted having never met this man before. “The question is what can we do for each other? The council is in place as a means of diplomatic communication between people whom may or may not talk to each other. It matters not if you only have 1000 troops in your army if the neighbouring town is aware your in need and can lend aid to you. The whole point of all of this is to get those that live here to start working together to make a stronger people with alliances that could bring down a god if they worked together” he said with a bit of a chuckle at the excitement that idea brought about.
He went silent and sat on the armrest of Vici’s chair now as Ronnie and Protea had a bit of a back and forth. The demon listening to everything. He smiled at the queen and winked back at her as she acknowledged him. Manic was not surprised by her words as he could feel the distrust in this room. It was not a feeling he shared but then he had only been in the real world for ten years and had spent a good portion of that satisfying his ID, caring for nothing and no-one else. At least not until he had become a father for the first time and felt true fear grip at him like it never had before.
He had never been involved with the old queen and only ever interacted with those in court when his then master Malkin, former god of Chaos and Destruction, forced him to go hand out various letters and notices. He watched her with the scroll and looked between her and Vici with a warming smile. It made him wonder if being a servant to Protea wasn’t as bad as all that.
He remained quite as Ronnie and the Queen talked back and forth still, the rest of the table gone quite as well as everyone seemed to be contemplating if they could trust this woman at all. Manic took the scroll when it was presented, curious about what might be on it. “I have no further questions but if the Queen would care to ask me anything so as to get to know me better I would be happy to oblige should it help in the choosing” he smiled as he looked over the image Vici had drawn on the scroll.

Vici snapped her fingers to get Ronnie's attention, even if he did seem to demean her, and she mimed herself dying in answer to Ronnie's question not allowing the queen to get a word in this time it seemed.

Ronnie listened to Manic speak almost as if he was a member of her council. Perhaps he took that wink as a secret confirmation that he was in. Perhaps he was just reinforcing the idea he would be totally loyal to her by defending her against others who would be demanding on her and having a somewhat opposition approach to her. He even acknowledged that if the situation required to kill his spouse for Tyran's benefit and future that he or her would gladly deal the other in, when all options are passed. Ronnie wonders how many lost of lives would pass before he came to that conclusion that the other would have to die.
Ronnie didn't care to know of his opinion as his central focus was on the queen's thinking. It was then that he heard snapping. Ronnie eyes would avert towards Vici as she was once again interrupting. However, Ronnie learned his lesson from before that Vici is apparently allowed to do whatever she wants. Maybe she is helping the queen select her council, if in that case he probable was a lost cause.
Ronnie looks at her and prepares himself to speak to the creature, “Yes, is there something you want to say or express to me?”

Vici once again mimed herself being dead and then when it seemed no understanding came from it she decided to draw another picture this time Tyran vs a stick figure that undoubtedly had to represent her then she exed herself out and drew an arrow by Tyran. If it came between the queen choosing Tyran or Vici, Vici was certain that Protea would still choose Tyran even if it would cause a horrible depression and void within the queen. But it was because she was born of Tyran and Tyran's well being then was the queen's well being.

Cairogen crosses his arms and looks to manic "Of course, if something happened and she became a threat. I meant more along the lines of spite or jealousy. I can tell Queen Protea isnt the type to do this, but if you think back not long ago, would the former queen and her twin not do something along those lines. That was the base of my question, if a death warrant was issued based on spite would you not also go to protect her?"
He looks to Protea and Vici "As i said, i stand by the queen, i trust her. As for her origins it matters little, those of you who knew Pendragon should know birth does not always mean just popping out a child. Magic holds deep roots more than most will admit and can do many things even seasoned practicers cannot explain. She is here, now and wishes the best for the kingdom. The council is to help guide her and keep her from making decisions based on false information or even singular emotions."
He stretches out a bit "My family has tried helping the kingdom out whenever it can and i plan to continue that tradition. I did not try to say i would choose Gaius over the capital, as far as i am concerned Gaius is part of the Kingdom. I was simply trying to be honest in saying i would defend Gaius if i thought the queen made a rash decision about it and didnt listen to reason. A what if scenario that i highly doubt will ever play out." His eyes gave of that slight glow as the light hit them properly "I stand by the Queen"

Lifting a brow just slightly at Ronnie, she wondered what the purpose of the question was. It seemed like a trap to make her answer something that would damn her one way or the other regardless of the answer. Of course she had the choice and option to not answer, but she rarely let confrontations and challenges pass her without standing up to them.
"I would assess the situation and see if there are any other options available to me. Once I have exhausted ALL possible alternatives, then yes, as Vici has said I would put Tyran over her. Those loyal to the crown, myself included, know that we are servants to the land regardless of our position. I am here to serve Tyran, not the other way around. The Capital will come before me, and mine. My people understand this as well, and will have the choice to not serve me if they do not wish to face that possibility in the future." At the idea of losing Vici, Protea glanced down at her and felt her heart hurt a moment, but then steeled herself again and went back to the business of the meeting.
Looking to Manic she realized she had warmed up to him quite a bit in the short time of his arrival. Part of her wondered if it was some supernatural charm, but the other part of her also knew it was simply his personality and the way he was carrying himself. Compared to the composure of Ronnie, he was very carefree and a breath of fresh air in a royal court, similar to Vici. There was a place for people like Ronnie too though, and her council needed variety. "I have no more questions aside from what has already been asked," she reassured him with a polite smile.

Ronnie eyes squinted as he almost made attempts to understand what she was trying to express. He gazed down at her drawings and gestures. When she pointed at Tyran, it was apparent that she chose Tyran over a stick?” Ronnie's mental side was just making an initial joke to himself as he knew she was representing the stick person as the person, perhaps persons, close to her. Even Protea would echo on those same points. Her answer was similar to that Manic who shall be mentally and possibly verbally referred to as the stripper beast. Ronnie interlocked his fingers as he spoke, “That is a good answer, and answer I expect from a honorable queen. I can see the look in your eyes, that you could make that choice if needed.”
Ronnie walks side by side to his chair, “I want to clarify that my intentions are to look into your heart, not discredit or make you look bad. I have seen and heard many instances were leaders where unable to decide between choosing between their heart and the welfare of their totality.” Ronnie takes a deep breath, “With that being said, you said that you would explore all options, what if you had an option to save your friend, but losses would occur with this option and there was no time to explore every other option. To put things in better perspective Tyran would eventually recover if you select your friend.” Ronnie stops and watches Protea to see if she can choose Tyran over her friend, even if her friend could be saved.

"I would consider that an option to protect someone not only valuable to me, but valuable to the kingdom. I would face the choice and casualties that would come at sacrificing the others to save said friend, so long as it also meant the Capital remained intact. To me, the value of the friend would make up for the losses, as tragic as that choice might be."

Ronnie listened to the queen and nodded his head, “Ok, you have earned my full trust you majesty, you have given me honest answers. “ Ronnie wouldn't continue further to indicate if he agreed or disagreed with her stance, but at the very least he respected her decisions and trust she would make the correct choice if the situation requires. Ronnie was tempted to ask how would she make it up to the families that lost a life because of her sacrifices, but he felt that it was time for others to speak. Plus Ronnie had formed enough of an opinion of the queen to not need to question her anymore. All that was left is to listen to what everyone else had to say or do. Ronnie returned to his quiet seating posture. He would wait for her to announce whom among the room has earned the right to become council and he was interested how she would reach out to those not chosen, so that she wouldn't lose valuable allies.

Manic smiled at the picture on the scroll, putting the things down just in time for Cairogen to ask him another question. The answers he had given so far more a result of needing to answer such question than thinking that he indeed had already been chosen as a member of council.
Unlike the rest here he did not in fact make any guess one way or the other as to how things might turn out. He did not sit there brooding and thinking his chances were already up nor did he puff out his chest all important as if the spot was already his.
Though he did have to admit Cairogn had him stumped “Umm.. well uh.. the thing is..The thing is..” he coughed and tried to clear his throat. “The things is I wasn’t really around much for that. I, unlike you lot, don’t hold any grudge towards the previous royals because I never got to actually know them. This is the first time in my rather sort existence here where I have sought to actually try to lean more about others outside of what I could discover between the sheets” he chuckled, making an inappropriate joke and winking at them all with a sly sort of smile. Alls this said despite the fact he looked to be at least 25 in age.
“But yes I’m sure like the rest of you I would protect my wife should the queen try to kill her for no other reason than spite alone.” he agreed at last with Cairogen. He would then turn to Vici and should she let him he would braid her hair for her. Not out of disrespect but because once again he was looking for something to do, to help keep him focused.
Again Ronnie and the queen were having their own back and forth and this time he did not interject but just listened. It seemed she had no questions of them anymore but then her goal was not to have small talk with them. He was done and ready for the Meeting to be over and yet he stayed in case he thought of other things to ask and say.

Orisimark would listen to all the conversations going back and forth "I am king orisimark of the drow. many of us are aligned in tyran but there are some who do not like us what would they do for us if we asked nothing no matter how much we could give them." he said looking to manic
He would listen to the back and forth between everybody then speak "I also agree if my wife was to be attacked by the queen I would fight with all my might. and if my wife was a threat to tyran I would kill her as well only after there was no way we could fix her. same goes with anybody I know and trust. as well as this is my first time approaching tyran royalty though I suspect we may not be so different after all we all want what is best for tyran every single one of us."

"Not selfishness Manic, concern on behalf of those here and on behalf of the queen. One does not jump blindly into a situation before assessing all angles if possible. Yes Tyran is first, but whatever it calls to make Tyran so is where I pledge my time and effort."
Wulv gazed down at Vici's pictures.
"The idea of the first is nice in theory, but as stated most of this seems a good idea in theory, it is when it comes to practice that the flaws take place due to humanity. The queen has been gracious enough to us to expose herself to get one aspect out of the way. She has also given us opportunity to see how the others here are characteristically. expose our own flaws and weaknesses to one another and see how we would work as a team. But if she were to choose one who did not show here today that is where the whole starts to fall apart. You have thrown chaos into the system."
Wulv looked at the others then back to their mate kissing Sune's hand gently.
"I have one last question for you majesty. If you had to choose between the deities what would you do?"

Ronnie shook his head at Manic and his adhd. He always had to be doing something, but Ronnie no longer cared, if Protea didn't care how he acted at her meeting, then he shouldn't either. After Orisimark made the comment about everyone wanting what was best for Tyran, Ronnie would break his silence in a slight snicker, but would offer no explanation for his mild outburst.
Instead Ronnie would speak after Wulvs question is answered, “I have something I am curious about, What will happen to Vargos? Will the past royalty still be leaving the main castle, will they remain, will they go adventuring, exploring, maybe a secret mission? Maybe the information about what happens to them is a secret?”

The Queen listened to them speaking, taking it in even when they spoke to each other instead of to her. Each one here was a fairly unique person, but they seemed to at least have similar ideals about protection, loyalty and moral decisions. At a certain point she waited until they were done and looked to Manic, and Cairogen. "I'd like to invite you two into my Council. Please take some time to think on it, and then provide me your answer. Thank you for joining this meeting, for your questions, and your input. You've said enough to convince me that you would both advise me well." She smiled slightly, then turned to look at the rest of the group.
Her eyes first rested on Ronnie, "Thank you for coming and representing your family. At this time however, I do not feel that there is anything you can provide me that Manic or Cairogen already cannot. Your time was appreciated, as well as your questions. I hope perhaps in the future we can discuss possible trade routes or alliances that could benefit us both." She bowed her head to him a little. "One of the guards will escort you out safely. As for your last question... I know only of Sapphire Vargo, and she will no longer reside here as I know it right now. The others are not my business. Thank you Mr Breteuil."
Then she looked to Orisimark. "King Orisimark, your concern is for the drow? As a King, and leader of your people, do you feel you would have the time to provide your advise and services to the Capital's crown? I have no qualms with the drow, as they have done me no disservice or harm. There are underground areas in the Capital too, some of wish I am sure the drow utilize."
Wulv and Sune were finally addressed. "If I were to side with one God over the other, I believe I would break my treaty with them, so it is not something I intend to do. Their conflicts will not greatly impact the Capital however, per our deal. If, hypothetically, I had to decide between them... I would side with whichever God was being most beneficial to the Capital at that time." She looked at each's belly and smiled a little. "I'd like to invite you both to my Council as well, for your guidance and advice not just today have been very helpful to me. However, I have one stipulation... I will not have you join my court until after you have both birthed your young and cared for them a while. Once ready, and if you still wish to, I'd like you to come back to my court with your answer."
Orisimark hadn't been there long enough just yet for the Queen to give an answer one way or the other. Tempest had already been made the offer to join her, so it would be up to him if he wished to move forward on that or not.

Cairogen nods to Manic "That was the only point i was trying to make, blind loyalty is worse than being a traitor and serves no value as an advisor. After all, if the queen wanted yes men she could simply hire them. Advisors are meant to advise the queen, even if its something she doesnt wish to hear."
He looks back to the queen as she offers him and Manic the position and nods to her "I will take a bit of time to think on it, but mainly to reassure that i can perform properly. Personally i accept, just want to think things over before i officially accept to make sure i wont be a burden. To be fair, im still a hermit after all, appearances aside, dont want to be considered the hobo advisor after all." He laughs a bit

Wulv looked to Ronnie who seemed to be the only one so far, aside from Orisimark who had arrived late so of course the queen could not yet make judgement on him, to not be accepted into the council even though he had posed some fascinating and deep questions. Yet on a personal level Wulv did not think they could get along to well with this man, which saddened them a bit. However that would not stop them from trying.
"Ronnie sir, you have delved into the character of the queen and have posed questions that are quite insightful. Though I cannot offer nor overstep bounds in this court I would like to perhaps discuss a trade route with your people and my city."
Wulv then addressed the queen with a respectful nod of the head.
"I thank you for the opportunity you have provided us, and I shall discuss with my beloved further back in Night Haven. After all her council and can be my council and visa versa. We will however both wait till after the birth and have taken time to take care of our own. We shall try our best to inform you at the nearest convenience of our answer."
With that Wulv assumed that they and Sune were dismissed as well and would take the hand of their beloved. If Ronnie had not yet left they would give a small nod to the man as well and if the man had wanted would wait for him outside the court. If he passed it up for whatever reason then Wulv would return to Night Haven with Sune to rest.

Ronnie listened to the queen and his expression didn't change when she gave him the big fat rejection. It did not surprise him at all, he went into the meeting knowing he was a really unlikely dark horse. He came to this place more so to learn information and he has learned a lot. He has learned where the queen stood on an abundance of issues. He didn't like all of her views, but felt she had the makings to be an above average queen.
He wasn't sure with all the people she selected in her court. Especially considering she was issuing more request to join her council than she claimed she wanted, but who knows maybe she issued so many because there was no indication that all would accept, maybe after the fourth person agree she would withdraw her offer as she would have a full circle, but that didn't make sense because she gave Wulv and Sune time to....
Ronnie Wulv's voice infuriated him, it was better when he was quiet being all lovey dovey with his/her lover. Ronnie didn't know what to make of Wulv. Ronnie would leer coldly for a bit. Ronnie no longer had his mask to hide his hate and fear filled eyes. Fortunately those eyes would only last a moment as Ronnie eyes would shift immediate to red dragonic eyes and Ronnie's presence changed. Ronnie seemed more calm like before, but his presence felt more dragonic.
Ronnie spoke with a voice that was deeper, “Thank you, My family contact you and queen to share possible trade outcomes, thank you.” Ronnie head shakes fast side to side at Queen's offer of an escort as he said, “No need Ronnie know way out.” It seemed like Ronnie voice didn't just change but his manner of speaking. Perhaps Shrick would recognize the voice that was coming out of his mouth. Ronnie would bow to Tempest, “Lord Tempest Sir.” With that Ronnie's hand began to shake.
Ronnie says, “Bye, happy counseling.” With that Ronnie's body sparkle up with electricity and in that moment Ronnie suddenly dashed out of the room leaving a short lived trail of light all the way until he was out of the castle. Ronnie's eyes soon slowly turning normal as he says, “next destination.”

Orisimark would look to the Queen "yes I do have concern for the drow for we are everywhere but we are pushed underground many of us wish to be above ground. though it will not be a instant thing we will live underground and come up for what we need from tyran. I also would like to state I have two twin sons that will run my kingdom in my absence as well as my wife. I have all the time in the world to offer my advice and services to the Crown and Tyran itself. I have many things to offer in trade as well to help build the capital." he said as he would look to her "I swear I will be of service to you I have thinking that not many do. I always think outside of the box and have many abilities and skills to help all of us I can house people as well if it is needed. and send many drow to fight in tyrans armies."

The Queen nodded slightly, bidding farewell to those leaving and listening to any that had remained behind for more questions or discussions. "No one should be forced to live any place they don't wish to. I'll see what I can do to help aid your people in coming above ground. Though... aren't they light sensitive beings? I would think that being understand would be something they prefer. Forgive my ignorance if I'm wrong, but that was what I had heard of the drow."

Sune had sat and listened to them all, her anger rising a bit at Manic’s challenge but then Cairogen was stepping in to say what they had to and Sune would calm again. She couldn’t hide her anger as easily as other as her eyes would shift from blue to silver when her temper flared, not that this happened often. She was glad to have her mate and her friend there with her as it made her feel more at ease and less out of place. She knew how Cairogen felt as she too felt others misunderstood her intentions and her words during the mess at the coronation.
She would rise to curtsy a greeting to Orisimark when they entered "Greetings and welcome” they had said and then sat back down. Still Sune continued in silence unable to think of any more questions that had not been asked. The back and forth between the Queen and Ronnie amusing her a bit as it seemed the man was almost trying to trap the queen in his questioning, looking for a week spot where he could get in to find out more information.
His interests seeming less in being a council member and more in the lines of gathering intel to whatever purpose it might serve for him and his. She relaxed a bit in her chair as the queen told them all she knew some would say no, though Sune herself was surprised so many had. She winced at a kick from the child inside her, grunting a bit “uhg..settle down little one.. settle” she cooed and pat her belly. At the question of trust Sune didn’t move. It was true she didn’t fully trust the woman but only because she didn’t know her. That would change in time and so would her level of trust.
She watched the sweet exchange between the Queen and the silent one with a smile, taking her turn to look at the picture. “I bet Ari could give your little miss some art lessons.. turn her into a court scribe that can draw out events for you.” Sune said with soft compassion for the poor girl. She knew it wasn’t her place to say but she thought the young one might enjoy it and knew Ari loved to teach.
Again Ronni and the queen had their back and forth, with Manic stepping in to say his share. It was amusing to watch him and his antics. It made Sune wonder if Manic wouldn’t just cause trouble wherever he was sent. Surely he didn’t think acting like that would be appropriate when visiting other countries as a representative. Ah well, perhaps it would do him some good to get some sense beaten into him by those he insulted.
As the old royalty was brought up Sune furrowed their brow. She had not like the Vargos much but perhaps that was only because she had a feeling that Monet was trying to steal her mate from under her nose. She and Wulv had an understanding that they could be openly involved so long as the other knew but Sune and Wulv had both failed each other in that department before. Such events making Sune worry that Wulv may one day slip away for fun and then forget to return.
She got so wrapped up in this thought now that she missed a good portion of the conversation. Startling back to reality as Wulv got up to go and only just catching the queens invitation to be part of her council. She tried to hide her surprise but her widened eyes would give her away.
“Oh my! Thank you my Queen. That is most kind of you. We will do as you say and go home for now.” she smiled and got up curtsying to them all in turn and then leaving with her mate. Part of her wished to stay just in case but the child growing in her had other ideas and she was growing hungry. She gave a glance to Manic. “Update us latter on anything we miss won’t you Mr Striper King of Hell” she teased the man on the way out, knowing that he would do this for them even if Sune disliked having Manic around.

Sakura and Rita appear in the Meeting room Rita bow and says " I'm sorry we are late, it seems I went to the wrong reality " she smiles and takes a seat by her husband.
Sakura sighs at her mother and says to Protea " I have a question I would like answered. As you know Tyran had 3 powers Rise after the great quake and the capitols fall from power, them being Night Haven: Home to all, Xenothrin: Defense and Security, and of-course my Isle of Light: Trade Capitol of the region. What I would like to know is how do you intend to work with the 3 powers? do you intend to be an equal partner or do you intend to try and power play? "

Orisimark would laugh "we are light sensitive sometimes which is why we dress heavily when coming up but we only became light sensitive after living underground for so long. see we were once normal and living above the ground but a lot happened and we were forced underground and we adapted." he said as he looked to her not wanting to rehash all the old history. "some will prefer to stay underground others will want to come up and live halfway normal of course they will have trouble but they will thank you whatever they do." he said smiling to her

Cairogen looks to Orisimark and nods to him "The drow are welcome in Gaius if they wish to come. There is a part of the city in a cavern for light sensitive people and the rest sits outside on the plateau. It would be an ideal place for them to adjust to the transition." He nods towards Orisimarks tags "My family has been a long friend of the Xenothrins, so i see little issue in opening our doors for you" He looks to Rita and Sakura as they arrive and listens to them quietly.

Protea had begun to rise from her seat to see the remaining two out of the room when two women rushed in at the end of the meeting. A brow rose on her face slightly, "The meeting is ending, I'm afraid you are too late."
She looked to Orisimark and Cairogen and bowed her head, "Thank you both for your time, and please feel free to approach me again in the future on what we discussed here today," she said vaguely.
Looking back to Sakura she listened patiently as she stood and smiled a little amused but was still polite enough to not laugh. "You are not the only powers in this land, my dear. I have no intention of making myself some equal power in this triad you speak of. Besides, I have already secured an alliance with the Xenothrin, and Night Haven has been kind enough to approach me as well." She lifted her hands with a soft shrug of defeat. "When you are in my Capital, I am the Queen and have the power and authority here. I treat guests with the respect they deserve especially if they are nobles. Just as I would expect of any place I visited. Thus has been the way for a long time. If you'd like to come to me again at a future time and discuss a possible trade route or alliance to this Isle of Light you speak of, I'm open to listening. Not today however. The day has been long and those that made the meeting on time," she smirked slightly at Orisi since he'd also been late, "should not be kept any longer."
Without allowing anything further said, and having answered the woman's question, she gave a soft bow to all of them and then retired to the room on the opposite end of the meeting room, allowing the guards and staff to escort the others out.
