"The Queen of the Grounds." Morgan immediately followed up Wessex's name with her title, hoping it might remind Juniper of just how difficult it would be to bring the woman to any kind of justice. Not only would she be well guarded and in the company of many people, taking her would be seen as a threat against the Grounds itself, and Wessex was a strong individual unto herself.
That, and Morgan had just begun a truce with her.
The rest, about future relations between the Ascended and the Fae, she could appreciate; there didn't have to be friendship as long as there wasn't war. Gathering in a breath as she thought then letting out as a sigh, Morgan tried to decide where Halo would stand on this issue. "You must know it would be very difficult for us to kidnap the Queen of the Grounds, along with likely many of her citizens. Also, Halo is not an enemy of the Grounds personally." We won't be helping you with the past, basically.
"What I could offer is this: Halo will put out a statement of protection, alerting all regions that any attacks upon the Greatwood will be from now on seen as an attack upon us, and we shall defend the Fae in conflicts that begin from this point on...almost with guarantee." Morgan knew this wasn't going to be what Juniper wanted, but she didn't want to make promises she couldn't keep.
