It takes some time for the queen to arrive, but, eventually, the large roan figure comes tumbling through the brush. Lyris grins at the queen, a little amused at Scorch’s rather bedraggled appearance. Had the mare been sparring or something? Or just running herself ragged after her little band of children? How many are she and Hestoni up to now? Not that it matters at the moment.
“Agreed!” She chuckles, thinking of the times she’d gotten lost in here as a child. It’d driven her mother half mad. “Yeah. Just got back from the Falls. They … weren’t the most helpful lot. Queen never showed.” She shuffles awkwardly, but keeps her gaze on Scorch. Wasn’t her fault after all! “I was met by one of their diplomats though. Called Texas.” Odd, moody old bat he’d been. “He said he’d pass on our offer to their queen, and that a diplomat of theirs would come to us soon with their answer. Also, he said that the Falls is no longer taking treaties. In order to have access to their waters, kingdoms must have an alliance with them.” Fortunate for them that they wanted an alliance to begin with. “Sorry I didn’t get much more than that.” Not great for her first diplomatic mission, not great at all.
