its a celebration

As expected, her mother joined her and Venom shortly after, greeting the Ashen Empress and subtly sharing the news she had come to make sure was told. Luckily, Venom seemed to have a positive reaction to the change, congratulating her on the new position. Avacyn dipped her head with a grateful smile. "Thank you, Empress." At the very least all of their allies had been informed and none of them seemed to oppose the change so that took a weight off of her shoulders. Now she could focus on building or at least defining the relationships they had with the rest of the packs. Several of them were still mysteries to them so hopefully that could be rectified soon. It was something she'd like to discuss with Venom since the other woman was sure to have opinions to share, but there seemed to be other things to cover first.

She certainly wasn't surprised by the desire to visit with Ikigai while she was here, but the announcement of another of her daughter's engagements and the wedding that was being planned was a surprise. The only big events she had ever attended were Artorias and Briar's wedding and the festival that she had hosted herself so there was no hesitation in her agreement to attend. "Thank you so much for the invitation, we would love to attend," she replied, glancing toward her mother with a grin. As much as she would love to dive right in to picking the Empress' brain about alpha related topics, she figured that could wait. "Please, feel free to stay as long as you'd like. I would love to talk to you more later, but no need to talk business right away." She chuckled as she got to her paws, giving Venom another dip of her head as she went to take her leave, knowing that her mother would want to handle getting Venom settled in.
