a time to come together [Empire Festival Opening]

Duchess was eager to go to the festival but maybe it was because she was eager to meet Indigo's family. She hadn't seen Sirius while he was in the castle and the only life she knew of Indigo's was his place in The Hallows with her and the rest of his band. Though it didn't really occur to her that they weren't really coming up here to meet his family, obviously there were other festivities going on. The sound of a wedding was exciting to her, she was pretty girly at heart and maybe it made her think of her and Indigo one day. She would never say that out loud though.

She had never been to Boreas before, so her mind was running around as they traveled through the lands to get to Ashen. She still tried to keep herself calm but she probably wasn't really acting herself. Definitely distracted and maybe a little overwhelmed. That was fine though, she figured she would settle once they arrived to Ashen.

Indigo addressed himself to the Queen, or the Empress in this case. Duchess did bow too only as she noticed his own behavior, but the only thing she could offer was a smile. She then would follow Indigo around. She may have grown used to the numbers of The Hallows, but she had never experienced anything like this. And all she wanted to do was stick to Indigo's side. Of course she would have to settle for the others when he went into the tournament.
