it's a mystery to me
we have a greed with which we have agreed. you think you have to want more than you need; until you have it all you won't be free. and when you think more than you want, your thoughts begin to bleed.
She’s never been to this part of Beqanna before. The North had been structured differently in her time as Khaleesi, and even then Scorch had handled so much of her diplomatic responsibilities that Wishbone had never needed to visit the island. Standing on the beach, the purple mare wishes that she had visited sooner; Icicle Isle has an isolated, special beauty that she notices even from its entrance.
Wishbone had been expecting to have a bit of time to study the island’s beachfront before her call would be answered. There’s a mild surprise in her amber eyes as a winged stallion arrives from between the rocks only moments after her request. She doesn’t mind the urgency of his response. In fact, the quickness of the stallion’s appearance soothes the anxious, time-sensitive need within her. There’s a current tugging in her belly, begging her to move quickly and create alliances right away, and she knows that his presence is a comfort to her impatience.
The purple mare returns Nashua’s smile with a warm one of her own. “Don’t apologize, I’ve only just arrived. I’m Wishbone, Queen of Tephra alongside my brother, Warden.” Based on her conversations with Warden, it’s been quite a while since Tephra has explored the other territories of Beqanna, and she suspects that many of them are in the dark on the volcanic kingdom’s leaders and affiliations.
It’s one reason why she’s visiting, but there’s another reason alongside it. “I’m here to establish good relations with the North. Tephra has been rather quiet lately, and we want to change that.” She isn’t ready to tell Nashua that their numbers are lower than she thought, or that they’ve had two recent border breaches involving her daughter getting kidnapped. Wishbone isn’t sure if things will boil down to a war between Tephra and Hyaline, but she will do what she can to avoid attacking Mazikeen’s kingdom. So she begins with forming alliances. “I know Tephra and Nerine held a strong alliance many years ago, but I’m unfamiliar with their relationship since then. I’m hoping we can move forward into something similar with the North as a whole.”
