Lonely from their years of humidity and quiet as the trees they came from ;;

Arianah is unsurprised by yet another's appearance, but what did surprise her was that their sovereign had still not shown her face; it was an odd concept to Arianah, to allow the herd to greet an unknown when it was the king or queens right and responsibility to serve and protect their herds; but then maybe Arianah just saw her position a bit different then others. Chalking it up to the fact that it was a very real possibility that Viriarus was busy attending to other matters Arianah contents herself with the company (all-be-it slightly defensive on the Valkyries part) of the four who now accompanied her. For a moment she could not help but feel like a prisoner being guarded until the queen could arrive and decide her sentence but even this was shirked without a second thought as the newest arrival begins to speak. She knew who this one was, had been the one to detect her scent within the mesa and block her from removing Solaris from the ranks of the Silver Lakes.

Ears forward Arianah nods to Cortana, showing that she is in no rush; Viriarus could take her time as she saw fit, after all Ari was in no position to demand an immediate audience with then tawny queen returned to power. Remaining silent as the mahogany minx turns the greeting committee into a classroom and stifling an approving smile as she thought that Viriarus was very lucky to have a Reginleif that was so ready and willing to turn any experience of the others into a chance to glean new information to be used at a later date. When Cortana at last turns her gaze to her Arianah returns it with a steady and unwavering gaze of her own; holding just long enough to show that she did not fear the little mare. “No disrespect intended Cortana but I do not think that there is anything you can do to help me. I will bide my time and await your queen to discuss this particular matter.” Settling in to wait Arianah's ears flicker back and forth between the assembled group and the surrounding area well aware that a more highly skilled air walker, even now manipulated the air nearby; tipped off by the insistent thrumming of the Diamond place ever so discretely behind her left ear and burred beneath a thick layer of silken coal hued locks. There was only one other more skilled then she when it came to the element of Altus, only one that surpassed her and claimed his Guardianship and that one was exactly who she had come to see; Viriarus.

Raising her head and tucking her nose as her ears flit back to listen behind her, her attention turns from the assemble girls to the umbrage as a gust of wind races through the canopy as though it have been forced against it's own natural design for far to long and was overjoyed by its freedom. For a heartbeat time seems to slow as the valkyrie queen finally decides that now is the appropriated time to make her debut; Arianah craning her neck to watch her draw up from behind, right ears flicking forward to the group as her left remains trained on the queen who has now come into sight. Arianah had been new to the Silver Lakes when Viriarus had had broken alliance with the south while Rapier still claimed the thrown; setting aside differences with the rajputs it order to join together and dethrone the dark queen . It was a shame really; evil manipulating and conniving as others may have found her there were not many woman that could hold a Kingdom and keep it at the strength that Rapier had. Not to mention the all to recent raid that had ended with the dethroning of Kitty, making it all to clear that where Viriarus lay her alliances a fall was soon to follow but that was a risk she was willing to take if it meant show the south that they would not be taking their indiscretions lightly.

Almost immediately after Viriarus appearance the former queen of the south made her debut in a swirl of darkness; Arianah had seen her a few times, venturing around the Silver Lakes before seeing her in the Rajputs where she knew she had been imprisoned for an extended period of time until just recently, having won her freedom. As each has their say Arianah stands silent, listening to each concern and remark, shrugging of each slam to her metal status. However crazy or foolish they thought she was in seeking this alliance made no difference to her, they could say and think what they wanted and she allowed this to continue until silence finally fell over the gathering. Letting nothing more then the sounds of the jungle hang over the group like a blanket as expectation thickens the atmosphere. It is while allowing the expectation to build that Gobardon makes his grand appearance, taking over the meeting as though he had no faith in her what so ever; fighting to keep her face expressionless and failing just a bit Arianah sighs to herself, a bit irritated by the intrusion but remaining silent to see just how he was going to deal with this one.

Each piece is placed out on the table, one at a time concerns are made by yet the Valkyrie queen says nothing and as Arianah glances to her she assumes that she is calculating each part as Ari herself is. All in all there was one thing that the pair had not agreed upon and that had been putting Rapier back on the throne and as Sasha has her say she hits the nail on the head when she mentions facilitating histories ability to repeat itself but something more then that gave Arianah a better idea and she wasted no time in getting it out on the table her vocals slipping calm and confident through her inky maw as she first looks to Gobardon, not giving Rapier the chance to respond to Sasha's questioning.. “Sasha is right. History must not be given the chance to repeat itself. Rapier may owe you a debt but what is to keep her from attacking us once she is restored to her throne and the debt has been filled. For that matter what is to keep her from doing as Zacharias has done and turning her back on the those who help to restore her; it is a risk I cannot allow to be brought into existence, not for the Silver Lakes and not for the Valkyries should they choose to ally themselves with us in this fight.” Looking away from him and back tot he groups she continues on.

“Even I, as young and considerably uneducated over the past of Hoof Prince know of Rapiers rule and the efficiency she wielded, it is still spoken of even now by those who lived during her time. The blood sweat and horrors put into dethroning her should not have to be faced again in the future. I propose that instead of restoring Rapier to the thrown we suggest placing one who is dedicated not only to the Valkyries but also one of your most trusted.” she says nodding to the silent Viriarus. “Perhaps it woulds suit all concerned far better if we were to fight not only to remove the south's current sovereign pair but to restore Sasha's lost opportunity.” She knew in saying such she risked angering Rapier but the fact remained Gobardon still had his debt to call upon and they could hold on to the chance to acquire her aid no matter who they chose to back when it came to the filling of the feminine aspect of the pending change in the southern rule.

“I also suggest placing our own Rhone on the throne as the south's new king. This might ensure that both the Rajputs and the Silver Lakes benefit from a united champagne. We are all in need of time to train new recruits and secure our numbers as we each rebuild our kingdoms, there is no denying this.” she says looking to Cortana an nodding to show that her previous impromptu lesson to the new Valkyries had not gone unnoticed or been forgotten so quickly. “By placing Sasha and Rhone on the throne I am sure that at least for a while we will have that lull, within which we may increase numbers and train our respective army and senate members without having to also worry over impending raids or deal with inconvenient disputes that have no legitimate reason behind them.” Finished for the moment Arianah's certain gaze flicks back to Viriarus, the easy tilt of her head leaving no doubt that she was more interested in what she thought of the alternative than what anyone else had to say and was awaiting the mahogany queen to voice her own concerns.
