Delphine
"Northaven," she stated, softly. Lately being from Northaven was causing her more harm than good. She was trying to figure out if Noah was like anyone from her past; Remi...? Had Remi ever been quite this naive?
Probably, at one point. She'd been naive then, too. Here she was taking a chance, a careless chance, but nonetheless. Back home she had had a powerful master, husband, whatever term one wanted to use for her ex-husband, it all amounted to the same thing; she had been a pretty plaything, the thing to own, to have before anyone else could have it.
She'd never worried back home because of that, being associated with Bellamy Rowan had almost assured her safety, no matter what she did. And that had been proven by multiple instances. Here, though, she had nobody.
Sure, she'd found Zariah, and the Launceleyn's, but they did not like her; could not yet forgive her. And that was fair. Zariah had taught Delphine you had to earn one's respect and trust. Not given blindly. And yes, she had found Remi, but... he was different, and she had not quite figured that out yet.
"The children do not remember Northaven, they were... just infants, before we were brought to Caido." She stated, keeping the idle conversation up. "It was... hm. A strange place, no stranger than Caido, though." She admitted.
After a moment, "Are you from anywhere else? Or are you a native?"

Let me make you smile, darling.
