Texas returns Shatter e’s greeting with a brush of his own greying muzzle to her shoulder, but the touch does not linger. His bones ache each morning and while the waters help, there is only so much that they can do. There is no cure to aging, and the thought of choosing his own continued existence over the kingdom he serves has become ever more tempting. He has made no decision yet, but the creak in his neck as he pulls back serves only as a reminder.
“A diplomat from the Amazons came. She says that they wish to offer us an alliance under the usual terms.” He does not add that steals and challenges will be friendly, as that is what he means by usual terms, and he knows that Shatter Me does as well. “I told her that I’d speak to you and return to them with an answer.”
After that he falls quiet, voicing no personal opinion on the matter. He is biased against the kingdom of women ,but only so long as Prague is in their midst. She is not, as far as he knows, and so for now they are not a terrible place. Misguided, surely, being only women, but not terrible. Not the worst choice of an alliance. “What should I tell them?”
