"That it was all they could come up with? No. That they didn't even try? Well.." Shrugging her bony shoulders Edy let her fingers dance around the rim of her stemware.
"Mmm." Edy all but grunted in agreement. She did have fun with Prince Charles once upon a time. They two had even wound up in bed together, but as a ruler? Yeah. He was pretty useless. Raising a brow, Edy narrowed her eyes slightly. She was a soldier, a blunt weapon. Not used to reading between the lines, Edy licked her teeth thoughtfully for a moment. "So...does that mean that you might be an equal then? Or that you could be one?"
It was strange to hear Zariah describe the Voice's motivations as such; it sounded precisely like what Edy had basically had to go through to get where she was. The only difference was that the younger Launceleyn knew precisely what was expected of her, whereas she wasn't so sure that Zariah did when it came to the Voice. "Speaking of ascendeds...How do you feel about them drawing power from us?" Edy said, not in any way hiding the fact that in the past she'd let both Lucas and Wessex drink from her.
