Delphine
Delphine was startled, she shouldn't have been, though. She had asked a question, made a request, she should have expected an answer. Her gaze flickered to the children, and she made an uncertain noise.
After a second of staring at the whining children, she nods slowly. She turned to reach for both of the children's hands, to pull them forwards, "You two are going to go on a trip, with my friend..." She realized she had no idea which god had sent an answer to her. Nevertheless, it was for the best.
Bryony, of course, began to cry, while Acantha was more than eager to go to the stranger. Delphine released both children, and Acantha grabbed her sister's hand, urging her forwards. "We're going on a trip! Away from Mama!" The darker-haired child whispered to her sister, clearly thrilled.
"Where will you take them?" They were her children, as much as she despised them.

Let me make you smile, darling.
