In the same manner it wasn't all generations of Destructions that were close. She'd never met any of her mother's siblings and though she'd heard of her Aunt Dubara had never actually met her either. She was determined to keep close with her own siblings and the nieces and nephews they gave her, not to mention of course her cousins that she knew as well. That was becoming a rather tricky task given Iorwerth's refusal to co-operate with anyone in the family and Cirala another of these family members that had a habit of vanishing it seemed; apparently she was in Alacritia, but Novella hadn't seen her since they'd both been in Ahlon.
Rather than run of of a wild goose chase though she would remain close to the family that she could. Dhiren for example it seemed was willing to help in this goal to keep the family close, or at least honour that it was what Novella wanted anyway. She'd smile warmly at his comment, touched by the words and nuzzle him lightly as he leant against her and dozed off to sleep. His own state calming, she found that at last she was able to rest herself, the excitement of the night's news fading enough to let her sleep now.
