Priya must have been trying to make Calista blush, for she felt her cheeks heating up more at the confession about meeting her being the best part. Why? She wanted to ask. What was so special about her? She was like every other noblewoman from Empyrean, a bit more like them than she was those from Arcadie even, and surely there were more interesting ones to be found. The ladies from Ardghal were more interesting with their culture, for a perfect example, even if they were strange. Her meeting with Reyne the prior day floated to the forefront of her mind as though to remind her that it had happened.
"I am glad you are settling well. Knowing one's surroundings is never anything but beneficial, I have found." Perhaps that was why she felt more comfortable in Kolite now than she did here in Kingswood. "I have fared well." There had been the issue with Dustin and the matter of the hunt, but she didn't think she should bother Priya with something like that. "I met a woman from Ardghal yesterday, which was interesting in and of itself. Otherwise... I think I have just been adjusting to being in Elkwood Castle." A thought perched on the edge of her lips before she let it out. "I was truly just glad that my son was not maimed in the training yard as Lady Leavey's was." Word of that surely had filtered to the commoners. People seemed to love the more gorey things about life.
