MAEA
For someone who had been exiled and had all her plans overthrown, Maea was doing surprisingly well. After the initial shock had settled, she couldn't even say Flora's conditions were all that unfair. A tad too emotional, perhaps, but definitely not unreasonable. And it offered Maea an excellent chance to explore places she had not been before. Save for the one brief visit together with Talyson, the Sidhe village was such a location. Finding a guide willing to take her there, Maea roamed the winding paths with an odd sensation of being tall. All but the rare fae was shorter than herself, the architechture perfectly suited to her size, from stairs to thresholds down to the chairs and benches. She followed the flight of lithe creatures through the air, realizing after a while that the multitude of animals traversing the silvan town had to be more fae in shifted form, and stopped at one point to watch with delight how a storyteller wove a tale to an audience of youths with the aid of illusions.
It was a place she could get used to. As she searched her way to the Bodega, Maea quietly questioned her insistence on Torchline for a new home. Even if she did find a flower and brought it back, she doubted it would do much to change Flora's mind about her. It would be far easier to stay here, learn the ways of the fae and the forest, let the rest of the world take care of itself...
Ah, but who was she kidding? It wasn't to make friends with the Doubletake she was here. Being 'hated by everyone' bothered Maea less than she'd have thought, save for being inconvenient. It was for the people she thought of as friends that she had come all this way; it was for being able to live near them, and for what the flowers could do in safeguarding them all against the Void. Proving herself to herself, regaining some confidence - all were far more valuable reasons than to again the approval of a self-righteous girl, and then she could be ever so much a queen.
Leaning against a railing overlooking the water, her tail swayed languidly while she took in the scenery. Around her the sounds and scents of a busy marketplace faded into a pleasant drone, turning into ambiance that filled her ears and lulled her thoughts to a rare quiet, all as she waited for two of said friends to appear for lunch.

I see a new horizon, holding on to hope
Say goodbye to all my pain when it's time for me to go
