TEMPORARY QUEEN

Svan seemed a bit shocked at Vi's request and slowly a soft smile would tilt up the corners of her lips as she watched the woman bow a bit and agree to Vi's request. She would simply allow eyes to slip closed, head tipping in appreciation to the woman. But when Svan spoke again a weary sigh would reverberate up her throat. "No rest for the wicked I'm afraid.." She said, forcing a smile as she turned to look to the rest of her companions who had gathered, especially to her children. "Lekan, please take the children home. Svan I will come speak with you at a later time but for now settle in your new home. I'll support whatever you wish to do there? I have a blood debt to reply?" The last words were spoken half under her breath so only Svan might be able to hear if she was still listening. But she wouldn't wait to see the reactions, instead she would turn towards the north and set off at a leggy trot. The last time she had taken this path she had been carrying her nephew's body with Zara? Only once she had taken it and yet it felt al too familiar?
