"Sounds like a win to me," Maea agreed. "That's not something most people would have done. Or could have, even. Some might go so far as call such a feat heroic." Even the most grudging of fae would have to admit as much, after their homeland had been saved by the outsiders they were so opposed to.
Placing an order for something hot and spicy that she wouldn't recall the name of once she turned away, Maea sidled off so Flora could choose her poison. Turning her back to the counter and leaning back on her elbows, she let her gaze drift absently over the crowd. "I gather the Family didn't agree...?"
