Zelda would tell him anything he wanted to know if he asked. There were no secrets there, she was happy to share her part in it, not because she was proud it was just she had nothing to hide. She knew Coza was all about forgiveness, but Aranck was beyond that. It wasn’t even just Moteuh he had killed. He killed Aithne, Moteuh and from the conversation she had with Pine he had raped a woman too. Who knew what else he had done, that was just the stuff she had experienced or been told by Pine and others involved. She had always intended to return his children to him, they just never seemed interested in leaving, that and he never cared to get them back. Regardless of both those things she didn’t regret how she handled it. She couldn’t, she had tried to think everything through best she could. Zelda knew someone somewhere out there would probably be mad, his children most likely, or his mate but it wasn’t just her going after him with justice though. Pine, the previous rulers children, her uncle Halcyon… he earned the ire of otherwise good hearted wolves. He deserved the storm that came upon him.

She didn’t always know what she was doing, she was still new, but she had gentle prods from her father and uncle and now Tithe, Alistiar and her many other ranks too helping her to go in the right direction. Even Dexter she was sure would be invaluable with his help. She trusted the nature of her family above all else. She knew how they all were, it was ingrained in them to be that way it seemed. Even she would be a martyr if it came down to it if it meant her land would safe. While her name sounded so selfish she never thought it really as terrible. It was a name given to her by Hyrule, she simply kept it when it was her time to step up and rule. She saw herself a ‘goddess’ who did whatever she could to protect those in her world and would do anything to help them. Though she knew how it could sound full of herself, she was doing what she could for Taviora. Slowly she was becoming more competent but she knew she was a long way from being the greatest.

His words though sounded harsh, but not unwelcome. For her it was reassurance that someone thought she had done the right thing, but it was from a rather surprising source. Family. She knew Hyrule would have saw fit for him to be gone quickly, but she reminded herself that she was not as familiar with Dexter and his beliefs as she was with the others. ”In this case, yes. He was a storm, it flowed out from him, like a miasma… I could feel it when I met him… never have I felt such a thing even when I met with the Monster of Asteraia and Tobias. He was completely gone, there was no saving him.” She said a bit sadly but she did have nothing but faith in Pine. Like Zelda, Pine would have find her own way and work herself into the paws of her new position, but Zelda though she could do it.

She was happy though that he smiled, she was telling the truth, yet he proceeded to ask her for permission anyway. She gave a clearly girlish giggle and a little shake of her head at his stubbornness, but grinned all the same. ”Of course you are welcome to be a part of Taviora. I would never deny you from our family. I am sure you will be able to help Taviora a lot too.” She says to him hoping that now that was settled he would relax once again in his home. He was born here just as he was, he was family and never would she say family wasn’t welcome here. However the more serious matter was coming up but also something she knew he wanted to help in. She would give him whatever rank that she believed he earned and with her courage on the table as well as the wonder she was pretty sure he fit one better than the other. However depending on how he handled it she knew he would be fit for something even higher than that but time would tell her how her family would work into the grand scheme of their home.

This information was important and something she hadn’t given out yet. A look of understanding, if not approval seemed to touch her uncle’s visage if not for a moment. She didn’t think it was bad, or unnerving, it was almost as though he understood that what she had to do, what part she played was a necessary one even though she hoped something like that would never have had to occur she couldn’t simply turn a blind eye to all the bad he had caused to Moladion. Though she flinched a little at the word vengeance. She didn’t want it to be that, or it to be considered that, but perhaps there was no avoiding that it was what got Zelda truly pursuing the downfall of the male. His blatant dismissal of her death shook her too the core it wasn’t just that he was a monster…

”Mother won’t feel better though. I don’t think his death aided in her recovery at all, it just ended up being what was best for all Moladion.” She said softly feeling a little more unsure of herself if those out there believed it was only that she went after him for. Right now though she needed to solve something else.

He corrected her statement on his desire to find the one who poisoned Amoxtli. It was firm, he wasn’t going to fail as she and Hyrule had. That was good, she wanted this solved just as much as he did, again it was something she wsan’t sure if Amoxtli wanted or needed, but it certainly might bring some peace to him that it wasn’t something likely to happen again, or at least they could find out why they had done it.

”Well, my Wisdom has started your search, but the second part of it is… delicate and may end up fracturing our family more than help it.” She started, ”Alistair is a trustworthy wolf, I believe him he has no reason to lie, he looked into Amoxtli’s poisoning soon after it happened and like Hyrule and I lost the trail until very recently that is.” She took a deep breath before seating herself and standing up anxiously again before pacing slightly. ”I don’t know what to do, how to handle it, but Alistair believes someone in Glorall did it, then what’s more he believes that Eden knows who did it.” Hopefully Dexter could see the gravity of the situation at hand with that statement. Glorall was by blood connected to the forest, though that was even strange in some ways.

”I want to know who did it, more importantly why they did it to uncle Amoxtli. I think that above anything else would bring him peace but to enrage Eden, I am not sure what that would do to mother. I know she cares about him, and he is allowed to freely come to see Shem and Asriel of course they are his children but… I think you understand why this is… different.” She stopped her pacing for a moment looking to her uncle with imploring eyes. ”Do you think you can help Alistair and work this out? If… something bad happens I can’t say I would blame you… just…” Just what? She wondered. Try? Do your best? She guessed she didn’t know what to say. She shook her head no matter what this was a strange if not delicate situation. She wasn’t sure if this was what Dexter had in mind exactly, but she knew he wanted to help the pack.

”Alistair might have more information, if you could meet with him he might be able to answer more questions. I hadn’t told anyone save for you and not sure I should. I don’t want anyone especially Tepi or Teza running off doing something rash… But if you trust to tell others, I trust you.” She says giving him a soft, sad smile letting him know she believed in him. It wasn’t blind trust, but it was trust. Something she easily gave until proved otherwise.
