Eloise
Darling, you take the high horse
and I'll take the high road
and I'll take the high road
At the decisive clicking of heels, Eloise straightened. If she'd successfully removed the mascara from beneath her eyes and tamed her hair, she had no way of knowing. Standing at the sight of Zariah, Eloise stood. She had no skirts with which to curtsey, but the fur-lined poncho she wore would do in a pinch.
"Had I a reliable way of announcing my presence to you before hand, I'd have done so. Alas, the ravens in Torchline are often...shot down for sport before they can set off on their missions." Eloise replied by way of explanation, before nodding her head. "Indeed, I found myself on a ship far out at sea at the same time I take it the majority of you found yourselves in the Hollowed Grounds. I've been in Torchline ever since."
Eloise would have thought it might have been hard to slip into her old duchess ways, but standing before Zariah now, it was like a second skin. "Word of your impressive new school here has reached our humble shores. They might call us the abandoned here and frown at magic, but we know that isn't the case."

If you're too good for us,
you'll be good riding solo
you'll be good riding solo
