perhaps it is the shining and mericful light of the crowned prince and queen that Akashingo is able to provide acts of service to others, when when they hold no ties to the court. Tuna thinks highly of her superiors.

she comes to offer Melody of soft gaze for a moment. "mah lady," she says to her, "perhaps y'ew'd preh'fer to rest 'n not haf'ta see th'a body?" up until this point, Tuna has yet to be corrected that this hemet is actually a priestess (but Tuna always makes the healthy assumptions that unless she can see some coy, they're probably not fellahin material).

she comes to look towards the prince. "is'this'a way" she comes to point her muzzle in the direction of the open meadow, and if all felt right, she would come to push off and lead him (and possibly melody too if she wished) to the body of the lost woman.

perhaps when they bury her, tuna may notice the flowers on the woman's body left by a ghostly lover.
