Glancing toward the cane as if expecting it to either confirm or deny his story, the queen looks back to Niki as he repeats his early request, her eyes falling on the glittering metal hugging his leg.
"Oh. Oh shit." Softening immediately, because #cripples, Flora snatches the cane and immediately moves toward the bank where she can, what? Use her 40+ strength to help him up? Hah, not likely. "Uh...speaking of Ludo...I actually just came back from the dead like 2 days ago? and I still haven't really recovered so..." Vaguely she gestures down to him, hoping he'll understand why it is she isn't dashing down the mossy slope and yanking him upright.
Slowly, though it's what someone like Niki would probably consider regular speed, the queen makes her way toward him (using his cane for balance, as it happens), before holding it out to him. "I'm Flora."
