Menkhet's eyes lit up as she saw Mochi approach however, she was disappointed in the simple acknowledgment. After a moment of consideration, she perhaps understood the necessity he saw for such an action. The girl was aware more would make an appearance and she fell into her own reserved neutrality. She heard her younger sister pipe up announcing "My name is Bastet, it's a pleasure to meet you." and this led her to speak "I am the Amunet of Asteraia." Menkhet offered with a slight bow knowing that at the very least Mochi would know the truth but others, well they would not. However, it seemed fitting as the odd boy that visited Asteraia before made his approach. If Menkhet were willing to shatter her well-mannered princess of Asteraia act she would have almost giggled at Nyiol's reaction. For now, she would maintain ignorance of him simply offering a tilt of her crown. With the confirmation, he was related to Mochi Menkhet offered a nod in greeting as Bastet went on her spill of niceties.

The crowd continued to grow but perhaps if only from the youth of Asteraia; as her brother, Runihura approached. Menkhet offered a devious look in acknowledgment to him as she looked at him nudge their sister. The fem was aware that Hura happened to be protective over their sibling and in a way she understood why even if she felt Bastet should grow braver. Catching the growl Hurra had issued Menkhet moved very subtly towards Mochi. It was as if she was assuring her brother she understood his role when it came to protector but marked the fact she disapproved of his target. Just in time for another boy from her pack to arrive. At his nod, Menkhet offered her own short nod of acknowledgment. Bastet, on the other hand, trying to keep things lighthearted offered more, light greeting to both her brother and the boy she seemed to know in some form.

As the confrontation or at least the potential for it grew, Menkhet had noticed Bastet's posture began to change. Her sisters' ears fell and she looked concerned. Menkhet did not expect anything to occur and while inwardly something craved chaos, the fem did not need her companion, siblings, or pack to start a fight even if it were more for her own selfish desires. Menkhet moved to stand between the temperamental males. Her reserved by lighthearted nature changed to one of strict seriousness, wearing her role to her pack seriously. "O' company mine. Do you really see a need to upset my sisters day out?" Menkhet spoke pointing her muzzle towards her sister before returning to the crowd. "Do not forget whos territory we are on. We are guests. No need to get worked up over jest." It was mostly spoken to her own pack as there was not such a great history between the mountains and the ruler of the plains and the fact she felt it best to decelerate the contest the boys seemed to be having.
