Her tail would flicker behind her, just the tip. Twitching this way and that as if it possessed a mind of its own. Her golden gaze never left the burning purple. Her posture wasn't meant to be challenging or intimidating, she simply wasn't afraid of the king. Submission was not something she displayed easily, and while she did not wish to start an unnecessary confrontation, but she would not roll over for him either. Curiosity, or so it seemed, would be her downfall.

She shifted slightly, redistributing her wait from her injured appendage. Half of her wished to gnaw the damn thing off. Surely one limb wasn't worth such a throbbing pain. She may have been cynical but she wasn't quite that bad. She displayed no sign of her discomfort except for the change of her stance. She cocked her head slightly to the right as he answered her, mimicking a curious bird. Her audits swiveled forward, eyes intent upon her target, she gave him her full attention, listening perfectly as he answered her.

"I thirst for nothing but truth. Vagabonds who thrive on the nuances of gossip and ride upon the coat tails of embellished stories have a naivety that I have no desire to possess." She answered him swiftly. her face hiding more than she revealed. His words were inspired, she had thought he would drown her in soliloquy's of how magnificent his pack was, its workings, its laws.... humility, yet another rare trait. She found herself intrigued. "Respect and honor? Two things my past lacks entirely, I am... besotted at the concept of society being built upon such notions, would you elaborate please?" her posture remained gilded and guarded but her eyes flickered in insatiable curiosity.
