Thalia wasn't quite sure what to expect. Where were her parents? Her brother and sister? She was already uncertain about things, but even more nervousness crept onto her features when she realized none of her family was there. Her brow furrowed, attention fixing on Pyrrhic as he began to speak. His.. his father was dead? There was no chance her parents been there too, right? She felt panic flood her, but she willed herself to stay calm and rational, despite every bone in her body begging her to do otherwise. Briefly her gaze lifted to the sky, wondering what had happened. Was God angry at them? Surely he wouldn't have done something like this if he was pleased. It was all she could do to not wrack her brain for something she'd done wrong, though she knew if he was angry it was likely at all of them, not just her. But they had to do something. And Pyrrhic was standing here admitting he wasn't sure he wasn't sure he was strong enough. But someone had to be, and it sure wasn't her. She was too young. Briefly she was reminded of Theory, and how she was now heir to her pack... could she step up and do the same? As much as she wished she could, she knew she wasn't the right choice. But was Pyrrhic? She couldn't lean on her parents to figure it out, and now she - and all of them - were being asked. "I'll follow you too," she spoke up. "To the ends of the earth." And beyond, she added quietly in her head. Family came first, above all else - that much had been ingrained in her since she was young, and in the midst of a tragedy it seemed even more important to follow that mantra. Unless someone else wanted to stand in his place, of course. Someone needed to rule.. and though Pyrrhic was young, he was an example of a loyal Abraxas if she'd ever seen one. Imagining him ruling over them inspired her more than irritated her, and she supposed that was enough to accept him as leader, unless someone more fitting tried to claim his throne. |
