EVELYN
Yes, what about after? What about when the sun rises again and the memory of their fallen Queen is mourned and forgotten, faded into dust, as difficult memories often are? What will become of them when the accursed door was opened, and the world was theirs to experience once more?
Would she let them perish, let them burn even as they burned their former Queen? Or would she extend her promise of protection, of safety, beyond that of Longnight?
Evelyn doesn't like that they are kept waiting, even if it seems the Queen is giving her response due time and thought. She would have preferred an instant promise, impassioned as the one Evie had made of their protection for the Longnight, easily extending it to the sun rise and beyond.
"You will be kept informed," Evelyn agreed, though her tone was decidedly less than before, dry, sad - resigned. A beat, a moment, a glance to her sister passed, before she wiped a tear from her eyes and nodded her head to the Queen. "Thank you, your Grace," soft tones uttered.
