Valette, and not Siarut, appeared then. As soon as he saw her, the pallid male lowered himself slightly, maintaining a respectful posture and keeping his eyes away from her gaze. The woman introduced herself, and at this Taikon's ears perked. He remembered that Takiyok had told him Valette was a reasonable woman. Taikon nodded his head.
He made a deep, low bow as was his style when introducing himself. I am Taikon, of the Ivory Rose across the Sunspires. I come with a gift, and bearing news of Siarut's missing daughter, he said, before rising again. This style of speaking was hardly normal for him, but had long served him well among strangers. Coming from royal blood had few benefits, but this was one. As he rose, he nudged the squirrel toward her, hoping that she would accept it.
Stepping back from her, Taikon sighed. Taktuq is safe. She is across the mountains with Takiyok and myself, he began, offering a small, pained smile.
