Valensia
She remembers Kryptic, a little boy who could barely say hi to her. She had thought him rather cute and almost wanted mama to adopt him, just so that she could show him how fun it is to be a kid. But mama had been at the other side of the kingdom safe on their little island tucked away, where she was supposed to be at the time. It’s only been recently that she’s been wandering further from their borders, and today is the furthest she’s ever gone. Probably one of the reasons she’s so eager to get started. She also remembers the time that Gansey fell from the sky, she herself had been a little to timid to just jump and fly, and started only a few feet in the air enough that her toes were still dragging on the ground. Slowly she had built up her strength so that when it came time these tricks were quite simple for her, and the risk minimum. She’d leave the daring to her brothers.
She arrives and tucks them into her sides, her head a little low, and her ears warbling. At the sound of her name she “secretly” cringes, but she’s never been good at hiding her thoughts. Her face is an open book for any and all to read. The smile she hears and perks at, ears moving forward. Taking a look at the mare that had followed quick on her tail, Val offers a face splitting grin. Preening her neck in her happiness not to be chastised. She trots up to Amorette offering her nose in greeting. But gets a shoulder nudge instead, choosing to return the favor as she listens to the mares words. It’s here that she notices the soreness in her wings, it’s probably the longest flight she’s had yet. Her little body unused to the constant flight. But usually taking breaks, or crashing to the ground in roughhousing with her brothers.
She doesn’t have time to respond as another mare is happening across them. With her children it would seem. Val perks up again, this time her attention fully on the stranger. Wow! How did she know they were from Tephra?! She almost askes the question but thinks better of it, maybe a little later when there are not other things to be dealing with. I’m Valensia, this is Amorette, she smiles, or did she ever stop smiling? Ah well, Warrick sent us. He wanted us to come here on a diplomatic trip. Oh shoot! She said that wrong didn’t she? She looks between the women, looking for any hints of if she’s on the right track or not. Giving pause, in her moment of hesitation.

“And there was you - your fair self,
always delicately dressed,
with white firm fingers sure of touch
in delicate true work.
I loved you then.”
- Charlotte Gilman
Sorry you two had to wait so long.
