In the near shell-shock of her words, the woman would wait- they would have questions, concerns they had a right to voice- and she wanted to hear them. She was a stranger, someone that they didn't know. Someone that they didn't trust. The deserved to speak their minds. A nod of respect was given to the first who agreed to stay, a smile gracing her lips. A sigh of relief nearly left her- perhaps she wouldn't screw this up to badly. Her expression softened slightly, when a child would speak up, asking if Deteste had left any words for his children. He hadn't- and no knowing exactly what to tell the child nearly broke her heart. Softly, she would speak- "Your father did not tell me of any message to pass on." Her tone was warm, and gentle. She knew what it was like to grow up without her father being around- and with Deteste falling ill so quickly- Roman could only pray he'd get well soon, to be there for his children. She didn't know what to say to the young wolf, nothing she could say would make her feel any better, so she fell silent, sympathy in her gaze.

For the first time in this meeting it would seem that her guard would fall, and she would look at each of the wolves before her with sympathy in her gaze- realizing for the first time what a change it would be for them. A large male would speaking, voicing his intention to leave and she would nod, a soft word leaving her, "I wish you well." A dismissal, he was free to go- she wouldn't bother to try to stop him. That wasn't her place. Finally another, would speak- this male addressing questions of what she had spoke of. She nodded slightly, listening to his words, her purple eyes staring at his form. "Perhaps- I chose my words poorly." She would admit. "I have no intention to use you as pawns. I am however, interested in strengthening this pack. From what I've heard of Tortuga- the name has passed many leaders. No one seems to settle here, and I want to no only make you an able bodied and respected name in the lands, but I also wish to have a family here. I would like to see this pack train, and become strong- strong enough to withstand any enemy that may come to our borders, but I do not want to go and seek mindless war." She hoped that would clear up confusion, perhaps she had come on a little strong. Her tone still soft, she would ask further. "Does that answer your question, sir?" She asked, genuinely interested to see if he understood her. Yes she would make them strong but she would make them strong because she'd turn them into a family first- then an army. Wolves that would have each others backs, no matter what. A family, that's all the pale queen really wanted. She wanted to be.. wanted.
