Juniper nodded with a smile, accepting the idea that a god had taken a stronger hand in Seren's finding Umbra than she might expect. She still didn't realize that Seren was a demigod, but receiving personal guidance from a god -- at least, from one of the heralds -- was hardly unheard of in the Greatwood.
As Umbra raised his paw, Juniper took a quick step away from the fountain -- she, too, thought it was bad idea to let the dragon bat at her wings, even if she'd potentially started the interaction. She couldn't be sure that his claws would remain sheathed, after all. Turning, she laughed as Umbra splashed over to Seren, following Seren's lead. "Oh, he may be a scoundrel, but how can you scold such a face?"
Then Juniper answered Seren's question: "I have no guide, and I would be glad to accompany you."
