Even with her armor on, the news stung. She did her best not to react, giving only a curt nod to acknowledge his words. Germanicus gone. Aquillius now serving a foreign master. Her world had turned into something she barely recognized in such a short time.

He filled in the blanks shortly enough, though all it did was to confirm she'd never known his name at all. She wondered vaguely if she was supposed to respond to him, but all she did was stare at Atreus for a moment before looking back to the first wolf as he began to issue commands.

Valiria wasn't sure what to feel about the fact that she would be going to this throne room, but she was pleased to hear herself referred to as a "ally". She gave a nod of gratitude and turned her attention to Atreus expectantly.
