Falls of the Hinterlands But you fuck so good

Making assumptions once again as to @Arlette keeping an eye on @Lotus lol, please let me know if I need to edit! Other tags are for reference :>

 


The Empress traveled further out today.

Lotus was safe back in the Strath, once more under the trusted eyes of Arlette and her pups. Nyra felt slightly guilty for asking her adoptive sister to babysit for her while she re-integrated herself into her duties, but in her mind it also made the most sense. She trusted Arlette, and while she also trusted @Aerin, she knew the Seelie was getting close to her own due date and would probably appreciate being left to her own devices for the time being. The Battle Phoenix also trusted @Kynareth Deagon, her co-lead, but some part of her still didn't fully trust @Simmik. 
Logically there was little to no reason for Nyra to distrust Simmik with her daughter - the Archangels were slowly but surely coming along, and once the Empress eventually died, Lotus would surely be the heir to her throne. 
Still, the alphess felt a skitter of paranoia that if given the chance, Kynareth's wife might kill Lotus to assure there was no competition for the Saints throne that would inevitably fall to the Deagon brothers after Donovan himself died. 

All would show itself in due time, she supposed. 

Coming upon the Falls from next to the river that lead down to the Strath, Nyra saw the two figures from a handful of yards out. One, she recognized as the two-toned brute from the foggy forest - the same soldier upon whom she savagely bestowed a secondary asshole to shit himself from. 

And almost killed, though she didn't know that part for certain. All she did have solid was that she ripped this fucker up pretty damn bad. Beside him was a pitch black female she didn't know. What was otherwise apparent, however, was that she was outnumbered. Already walking towards them with her tail arced high above her spine, and an aura that radiated power, Nyra pulled her ears forward with a slight wrinkle of her upper lip.

The two appeared non-confrontational for now, and that alone was the reason currently, that she didn't turn off the Logic + Reason Switch and just wreak ape shittery from the get-go.

"Nice evening, is it not?" She mused casually, almost boredly. Nyra made no effort to conceal her approach, but saying something seemed better than silently glaring at them
