ROANA
"Oh yes, they are fine, though rather confused by it. They're tough lil'guys." she said with a bit of pride. She loved her boys deeply and it showed. "Besides, despite her height, Phoebe weighs practically nothing. Just sort of picked her up and redirected her until she got frustrated and left on her own." she said with a bit of a shrug. But as for Wessex? Roana shook her head. "I'd rather not give her the opportunity to use my children against me again. People willing to stoop to that level cannot be reasoned with." she said darkly, lips pursed with her inner rage. "Last I interacted with her was to get my sword back. And since then I've simply made a point of keeping my boys as far from her as I can."
Roana was indeed tough, but she was a mother too, and the safety of her children came before any semblence of pride.
"If the soldiers I saw on the frontlines were any indication of their intent, they were indeed trying to wipe us out." Roana said calmly with a shrug. Not that it mattered anymore. Northwind was far and away. But why not serve anyone? She smiled a bit and shook her head. "That's an idealistic thought if I ever heard one. If you've power, or use, those around you will find a way to make you serve. Pretty words, blackmail, begging..." she shrugged. "Back home I didn't get the choose whose side I was one. I was born to a side. But here, I've been given the options...in a way. And ultimately we can only do what we think is right and best. That's what I'm going with "
