Exton

Ky leans back against a tree, watching all the goings on. Most of the fae creatures avoid her, realizing that she is Wyldfae even though she seems to be in high favor with the Warriors mother and trusted enough to be a member of the guard. Ky wiggles her ears at some curious youngsters flitting close by causing a peal of high pitched laughter and buzzing. She smiles when she sees Inari heading over, leaving Star and Erik to speak with Tychus.

Inari smiles in return and starts to tease Ky about scaring off the demifae when her attention is grabbed by the sound of a troop of horses approaching at a fast speed. Exchanging glances with Ky she steps closer to the entrance, hand on her sword, Ky and Raina right behind her.

They all breathe a sigh of relief to see its the Nighthawks returning for a break from the Unformed Plane. The men try to be silent when they realize where they are and that a funeral has obviously taken place. Inari smiles when she sees Torin and his eyes widen in surprise at the sight of her. He easily slips off his horse never taking his eyes off Inari.

“Ambassador...” He inclines his head. “We seem to keep meeting here...” His grin is teasing, taunting almost, daring Inari to remember the last time they were together.

Before Inari can reply the Queen approaches on her way out of the Grove and Torin goes to his knees with the rest of his men.

“Pestering my ambassador again, Captain?” Titania grins and does not give anyone leave to rise. She exchanges a look with Inari who knows the Queen well enough to realize this is her way of teasing. “Well.... since I am in a good mood...” She looks to Inari, “ ...you may bring him to the meal... as long as you change.... into a dress. You did bring one didnt you? Otherwise I am sure one of my servants can help...”

Inari bows. “I have one of my own Your Majesty.”

“Good. Then we shall see you shortly.” As Titania moves away and into the forest with several servants following, Torin and his men stand.

Inari sighs, “Now I have to change... why she insists on my wearing one of those ridiculous...”

He words and thoughts come to a complete halt when Torin reaches out and gently touches her cheek.

Torin whispers so no one else hears, “Can I be of some assistance?”

Eyes wide, trying to hide the hunger she feels Inari shakes her head. “I think I can manage.”

“Are you staying the night before heading back?” Torin asks.

Inari nods, “Yes. We will set our tents near the Queens, although I am not sure if she is staying or returning to one of her palaces yet tonight.”

Torin grins, “Looks like a good place for us to set up camp. I will see you soon... Ambassador..”

Ky starts to laugh when Torin gets on his horse and his men follow him into the forest away from the Grove. Inari playfully shoves her and Ky shoves back.

“Well at least you dont need to set your tent up...” Ky jokes, making Inari laugh. “You can change in our tent....” Ky looks to Raina... ”At least she didnt say anything about the rest of us wearing dresses....”

Raina grins, “I packed one for you Ky... just in case...”

“You did not... did you??”
