Ankyra Sound the voice of sirens three (discovery)

this is my last post in this thread, heading to bed now and will be uberbusy tomorrow! sorry

Caiaphas looked to Aktaie' questioningly as Danica spurned what seemed to be a reasonable request. A dark frown threatened to overtake her countenance with volatile volition -- it was during times like this that Caiaphas often stepped in to strongarm the opponent. While she was neither stalwart nor immense, she posed a threat vitriolic enough to often be reconsidered.

But for now she made no move, content to hang on Aktaie's order. She thought the outsider stupid for not even proffering a little tidbit of knowledge; even Mordecai had been forthcoming with the expanse of the valley. She thought the exchange of neutral knowledge was harmless, but it was apparent Danica did not share that conviction.

With a quiet huff that announced her opinion she pulled closer to Aktaie and awaited for either an order or a dismissal.
