Listening to Amun talk about the merfolk, the Wraith can’t help but wonder why he’s so invested in them. They’ll make a good impression or not, and like any other newly discovered race, she’s sure they’ll be inundated with stories of the big, bad Voice and her evil hench-children. It’s noble to want goodwill, but is it an appropriate place to put their efforts?
After catching Amun’s gaze, Wessex waits for a lull and then pipes up from the back.[say] “I’ve spoken with Maru, the Luminary, and his daughter.”[/say] Or kinda, cause what are timelines.[/say] “The Luminary seems receptive to general curiosity and exploring as long as no one’s invading, but his daughter already has her head filled with suspicions.”[/say] It’s that damned Blight all over again, the reason for the immediate fear and needing to always talk them down.[say] “But I’m not sure they’re worth expending a lot of energy over. Stay useful in Torchline. Remi is reasonable as long as there isn’t any trouble, or so I imagine.”[/say]
The news about Ludo is a bit of a blow, but given that her personal relationship with the Governor is fairly neutral-positive - and then there’s @Nate, to whom she glances with a bit of a question, as if to confirm or deny her thoughts - she can’t see any need for immediate action on the Voice’s part.[say] “Perhaps we can make a big goodwill push during Longnight,”[/say] she offers more to the small group than to the Voice. How is yet unknown, but they're creative. And have some delightfully non-violent, non-assuming new members.
