Erebos. She chuckles and I smirk, amused by the prospect. Ah, I have little doubt he left quite the impression. Of all my children, he is more his mother than any of them - even Kamala is a different beast than her mother. Still, my curiosity is piqued in relation to Erebos but I suppose it will not hurt to wait to find out just what my son was up to and if he had sought Kamala out on his own or not. In any case, my lip twitches at her comment. "I cannot say I am surprised," I state flatly - I never did take Renai for the kind of stay close to many. She was volatile all those years ago and it seems, likely now too. "But it's not her I'm truly curious about."

When she speaks about our relationship though, my ear flickers, a brow rising up slowly as my head slowly tilts. Hm? So, she had wanted to come here? Ah, how unexpected. As a child, she was so opposed to the mere idea of me let alone the idea of being near me. My smirk is amused above all else as I ponder for a moment, my eyes roaming to the sky in thought before settling back on her. "Smooth is not a concept I know too well," I say with the slightest of shrugs, "but you have always been welcome
here." I pause for several moments before I begin once again. "I believe it is wrong to belive our mere relation is enough to ensure we always have a smooth relationship, filiae," for my relationship with her mother was never conventional either, after all, "it is for us to decide as individuals, no?" I have opened up this home for her and so, I wonder if she will decide to be a daughter or if she will decide that perhaps our relationship is best kept distant. I would prefer the former, I think.
