Her call was swiftly answered by a woman of dark complexion. Wiry in build, though there was a beauty unparalleled in her angular features and honey-amber eyes - an homage to Bastet if she ever saw one. Although this was not the pale figure of Toula, the dark woman must come with good reason, for to answer the call of an Amira was a great honour. Head high, she looked down her nose as formal introductions were made, beckoning a servant for a sip of ayrag to clear her throat before she spoke her own.
"Now, now, there is no need to bow so low!" As dismissive as it sounded, rosewater eyes betrayed the true scrutiny in which she observed the woman of the second kingdom. "I am Nefari, second daughter to Queen Negalia, Amira of the queendom of Mesbasi. It is truly wonderful to make your acquaintance."
As for the nature of her visit, "A woman to rule her people is a scarcity in this age." Indeed, Toula's reputation preceded her! "My Mother sends her regards to the Queen and wishes good fortune for her upcoming ceremony." Her retinue bowed their heads, setting their bundles on pre-placed deer hide. No doubt they would be tended to in due course.
"I am to attend the coronation in support of her campaign."
