Her sweet uncle was quick to assure her that ghosts were far from tangible creatures, that even if they wanted to one could not simply grab her and take her anywhere. She wasn’t sure if she believed him but the tiny girl wanted to, and her delicate form seemed to relax lightly in his arms. Siren pulled her features from the ruff of Harbringr’s neck as he directed her attention to his friend. The tiny princess blinked as she looked up at the primate’s features. She wasn’t sure what she saw in his expressions but he had the same color aura as her uncle so she gave him the benefit of her doubt.

When he mentioned a ride, the little bitty puppy couldn’t help but think of her interactions with Mortis, and the winged boys eagerness to allow her to ride on his back. She felt safe there so she figured she would be safe on Ari’s back as well. ”Hello, Ari.” She replied cautiously, unsure if she wanted to leave Hari’s protective embrace. She needed to be brave though, so she could make Mortis proud of her.

The littlest princess found her feet, and with a glance up at Harbringr once more she stepped out of his circle of protection. He promised the ghosts wouldn’t get her, and Ari was nice.
