Lethy offers a gentle grin as Lepis talks of Ishcia, I will have to make it a point to visit someday soon. Maybe some of the kids would enjoy a vacation. A vacation would be good, she thought, to get away from all the tension and responsibilities for a bit. Lethy has found herself very busy since getting back from the resort, a new babe and another girl brought here from the den, Orion.
Lethy sighed and rolled her shoulders before Lepis continued to talk. She nodded in understanding as she talked about Ischia's agreement for friendly steals and mocks with no consequences. An odd thing she thought, for a land so closely tide to Tephra to agree to such things. She did not verbalize her thoughts, the only markings of her confusion a crinkle in her brow.
Before she could think further on the subject however Lepis steered the conversation back towards her own diplomatic visit. As the question rolled off her tongue Lethy's lips pulled thinly as she thought back to the visit with Ruinam. Well, the talk of friendly steals and mocks did not go far. Aten asked about an alliance, offering our assistance as well as training combat. She thought back to the way Ruinam had reacted to Lepis' name. She had seen the physical change in his stance, his muscles going rigid, and the atmosphere had changed. She had also spent enough time with Aren and Turul to notice the ways companions reacted to their equines emotions. Ruinam's companion was keen on getting Ruinam out of there when just moments before he had retreated back to the cover of trees.
Ruinam became curious about our connection to Loess once he heard your name. to this she winced almost inaudible, not wanting to frustrate her friend further. Aten was truthful with Ruinam and told him that there was no concrete alliance with Loess but we would be of help to them if needed. Lethy stopped for a moment before continuing, letting Lepis take her response in. Ruinam Hope's we can be friendly, but as long as were tied to Loess he does not want any part in diplomatic relations with us. Her gaze remained on Lepis, ready to gauge her reaction. Lethy had been sure Aten had reported this to her when they had returned.
