As promised, she leaves Gryffren behind and makes her way to the Valley with Everdeen and Gallows. It has been too long since she’s stretched her legs and actually made a kingdom visit. The perks of an active kingdom; she doesn’t have to. Of course, she’s so busy inside the kingdom that she barely has time for sleep, let alone recruiting or diplomatic missions. But this particular trip is important. The rest can wait.
She is content to walk in silence, though fills in conversation if they ask any questions or simply want to chat. She is not against being conversational, particularly not with other mares that know how to hold her own. Rather, she simply doesn’t require conversation.
The trip to the Valley is easy and short enough, and they arrive in no time. She is polite enough to follow their lead, only crossing the border if and when they invite her to do so. Not that she hasn’t walked into this kingdom like she belongs many times previously. She has. Quite often. But today she is being diplomatic, and so she behaves. Today, she is here to meet their new king, to decide if together, they can finally destroy Beqanna together. As they always should have.
